Pokemon starters are generally Fire, Water and Grass. Is there any other typing that would work just as well for starters too?

Psychic, Fighting and Dark. I would love to see GF do that but it'll never happen. Delphox, Greninja, and Chesnaught don't count.
>>
Ghost - Psychic - Dark is a common one people go for. I also just thought then Ground - Electric - Water, and Ice - Flying - Fighting
>>

Fighting - Rock - Flying

Not really. No other three type combinations have equal strength, weakness and resistance like Fire/Water/Grass do. They either have immunities, strength but not resistance, resistance but not strength, weakness but not strength, etc. It's the only perfect triangle.

What did I do wrong?

>>32195940
They dont resist themselves. For all the years this triangle was posted, this reason also.
>>
>>32195921
Ends up being part Fire, Water, and Grass.
>>
So many Darkfags. Best alternate starter ideas are either Fighting, Rock, and Flying(with or without an irrelevant secondary typing)

Fairy-Fighting-Steel is a good one too

Hell, even Ground-Grass-Poison would be better than that boring fighting-dark-psychic triangle.
>>
>>32195942
That is true, it was just an badly-thought idea I suppose, sorry. I was going to post 2 more but as I was typing it I updated the page and I was too late.
>>
Rival battles have become so rare and unimportant in the games that I'd say the 3 starters don't even have to be in strength/weakness-triangle.
>>
>>32195954
Actually this is the best among most suggestions. It just doesn't fulfill the tutorial needed for resisting its own
>>
>>32195915
Poison -> Grass -> Ground
>>
steel -> fairy -> fighting
>>
>>32195929
>perfect triangle
when dual typing has rendered that balance meaningless in most gens?
>>
>>32195928

This is the closest one, and the only one that isn't retarded. The only problem is they don't resist themselves, but that isn't a big deal.
>>
>>32196075
Even at the verying beginning, grass/poison means grass has an uneven resistance to itself compared to fire and water

water/ground removes water resistance and doubles grass weakness

grass/ground loses both water and ground resistance, gains SE STAB vs fire

water/steel loses grass weakness, and fire resistance

>use psychic
>can't hit the rival's ace
You can go fuck yourselves

>>32196315
So use a another move you daft cunt.
>>
Either dragon or fairy imo.
