What is your favorite Pokémon type and why?

My favorite type is Fairy and it pisses me off when everyone on /vp/ assumes it's because I'm a waifufag, when I'm actually just a fagfag who likes pretty pink stuff.

I can't decide between dark and flying. Dark because most of my bros are dark types, and the typing itself lends onto very different and original concepts and also because muh edge and shit, its pretty badass, and flying because of the concept of the freedom of flight, the fact I generaly love birds, and that gliscor exists, and is perfect in every way.
>>
>>27003949
Gliscor is one of those Pokémon that really could be more than 2 types.

Ground/Flying/Dark/Poison
>>
>>27003906
Ditto. Pink and purple are my favorite colors, and I'm glad there's finally a type that has often-cute Pokemon that are also often those colors. Poison worked for a while and is still pretty great.

It would give it no more weaknesses, given that poison and dark cancel out perfectly aside from ground, and give it an immunity to psychic, resistance to ghost, dark, fairy, grass, and extra resistances to bug and fighting. Neat

>>27004232
grass is neat in that it has a few specific Pokemon which are complete fucking monsters in their own regards. amoonguss, breloom, ferrothorn, etc.
>>
>>27004269
I know, thats what I meant with decent mons that are hated, have you ever met anyone who said they don't hate fighting a breloom? that they like ferrothorn? that they thing amoongus is a good pokemon? And when seeing others like serperior the second point applies. I really like grass as a type, but it really gets a bad wrap
>>
>>27004220
I'm not a girl, though
>>
Dark because it fits my personality.
>>
>>27004269
Yes, but they are good DESPITE being Grass types, not because of it.
>>
>>27004232
Ice is the worst type deffensively.
>>
>>27004099
Steelbro too.
Favorite are Metagross, Skarmory, Foretress and Aggron.
>>
Poisonfag checking in.
>>
I really like Normals, because they can learn so many different things, and only have one weakness, some of them have great stab moves too
>>
>>27004338
Grass has 5 weaknesses, 3 are to extremely powerfull ofensive types, and only two usable defenses. Ice is weak to 4 types, and 2 are extremely powerfull ofensively, has no usable defenses. They are pretty on par, but you must also account for the fact having more weaknesses worsens type synergies, so grass has a slight disadvantage objectively speaking. That is also speaking for the type, not its pokemon

>The Ghost / Fairy / Dragon trio i winning

Why does this please me?

One is manly, one is girly, one is neither
One is cool/badass, one is cute/pretty, one is weird/spoopy
All are named after supernatural creatures
>>
>>27004451
But Grass has more resists, Ice only resists itself.
>>
>>27004232

Grassfag here, we have some crazy threats like Ferrothorn, Roserade and Breelom for example as well as some cool designs like Gogoat and Trevenant. Sure we might have a lot of weaknesses but we still have some cool stuff.
>>
>>27004510
Yeah, but the real only threats to ice are fire and fighting, and grass has to deal with flying, fire and ice (plus bug if you consider the rise of things like scizor and pinsir a thing), and having more weaknesses means its more likely that a random coverage move can kill you.
>>
>>27004535
See point three. I really like all of the ones you mentioned, but you can't hide the fact most people dont like them

Water has arguably the largest number of good mons.

With how many there are, I can't disagree. Water's close to a fifth of all mons, right? Or a sixth of it?

Water or Dark. There's so many great dark type mons, yet no gym leader. Water is just so chill, and I love swimming, fishing, and generally being around it.

Poison and Bug

Poison is so interesting and cool, and it can be in many forms.

Bug is just good because insects are very unique and cool animals, bees being super important and all.

Grass.

It undeservedly gets a lot of shit, grass Pokemon would be really deadly if they got a hold of Earth Power in the same fashion that Water types get Ice Beam.

Electric. I enjoy Speedy pokemon, and electric types are fast as hell and have a nice mix of special and physical offense, and solid design work. The Pikachu line, the Electivire line, the Luxray line, the Joltik line, the Heliolisk line, the Ampharos line, are all top tier, not to mention Jolteon, Zapdos, Raikou, Zekrom, etc. It's the nice balance between cute and cool designs for pokemon, and it's got lots of great options. Kind of makes it one of those quintessential pokemon types for me

I love Electric. Lightning and electricity in general has fascinated me since at least 3 or 4 years old.
Also Yellow is one of my favourite colours.

I like Fairy a lot as a close second, I like all the mythical themes for Pokemon and cute things that have come out of it, and it doesn't hurt that it's so good.
Also I like purple a lot.

Ghost types.

They're always cool abstract designs based on spooky legends, or even mundane stuff like lamps.

Even the cute ones like Drifloon have a hilariously macabre side to them.

The way that Ghosts and Normal types are completely unable to interact with eachother is a neat concept, too.

I like that they're not based on just death, but are more linked to the concept of anti-matter or mythology which is a bit vaguer than other types.

Competitively they're also typically very useful and good at what they do, or have niche strats you can pull off pretty decently.

They're pretty based.
