If a pokemon could have three types, what would be the best offensive combination? And the best defensive one? And overall?

Lolwut?
>>31761622
>super-effective against 4 types
>not good offensively
>>31761593
>Electric for offense
>Not Ground which hits 5 types SE
>>31761622
Where the fuck have you been?
>>31761644
Where's ground, then?
>>31761656
I dunno why it wasn't included instead of Electric, but that doesn't change the fact that Ice is a great attacking type.
defensive:
steel
flying
ground
>>31761539
Ghost/Dark/Fairy
Defensively, at least, it's
>Ghost
>Steel
>Fairy
Four immunities is hard to beat.

Right there, flailing ineffectually at a Pidgey.
>>31761593
>Electric for offensive
Anyway, offensively would be Ground/Rock/Fighting(or switch rock with ice)
Defensively would be Fairy/Steel/Flying. Immunity to a common status move and a common offensive type(ground), plus more key resistances.

Fire/Fighting/Rock
Steel/Flying/Fairy

Ice typing is great offensively (if you ignore individual moves and only looked at effectiveness).
>SE against 3 pretty defensive types
>Freeze-Dry brings Ice's net 0 effectiveness to +2
>Perfect coverage with electric moves (Also works with Water+Freeze-Dry), which are also good offensive types
>Many scary Pokemon are 4x weak to Ice
Ghost/Normal/Poison would be pretty beastly as a defensive pokemon. Even beastlier if it had Levitate.
Offensive, I've go with Ice/Ground/Electric, which, I think, can hit almost anything for supereffective or neutral.
Ghost/Dark/Poison is weak only to Ground. Add in Levitate and you're set. You also get to be immune to Toxic, Normal moves, Fighting moves, Psychic moves, and Prankster.
Ice/Bug/Rock
Slow Start
I like Hilda.

BRRRRRAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPP
>>31761593
>fairy is both one of the best offense types and one of the best defense types
Why do people defend this type
>>31761539
>Offensively
Ground
Fighting
Ice
>Defensively
Steel
Electric
Flying
Fire/Rock/Ice is probably the best STAB triad in the game, the only counters to it are Poliwrath and Keldeo
...or it would be if rock had better moves

Freeze-Dry hits them super effectively.
