Not until this gen, but yeah, it's pretty fun. The problem is that each type only has a handful of pokemon that are actually good on it. For example, you'll never see a good mono poison team without Alolan muk and mega venusaur, or a good mono fire team without torkoal and one of the mega charizards, or a mono ice team without kyurem b, Alolan ninetails, avalugg, and either lapras or walrein. Each type's teams tend to look pretty samey, maybe with a little variation like salazzle over gengar or nidoking for a special wallbreaker on poison or golurk over Alolan marowak for a stealth rocker on ghost, but in general teambuilding is more flow chart-y than usual.
