>>46894978>the legendary duo/trioIt always fucked with me that zekrom and reshiram, the legendaries representing opposites, where not given the ice and the fire types
>but then one would have advantadge over the otherThats when the dragon type comes in, dragon is the only type that whose properties completely balance them, and their matchup ends up being completely equal, they are both weak to dragon, and netural to fire or ice respectively. They even went out of their way to make a third dragon, and they gave the ice type to it instead.
>the concept has already been madeWe shouldn't repeat or design stuff to similar to whats already been designed, but if we let that limit us too much, we will end up shitting uninteresting and forced designs. Its a perfect chance to design 2 cool-looking dragons that are not overdesigned edge like reshiram and zekrom. We would just make them red/orange & blue, and instead of truth/ideals, a meme duality, we could pick something more interesting and expandable like emotion/reason, order/chaos, pseudo-political themes form leftism/rightism, etc.
Also as for the starters, a trio of combinations with interesting type properties could be
>grass+fighting>fire+flying>water+rockWhere fighting/flying/rock is one of the few type trios that interact exactly like the grass/fire/water core, and when put together like this, every starter can hit another with 4x damage and is 4x weak to the one remaining. However 2 of these types have already been made for starters, and i'd prefer if we first came up with the concept for each starter individually and then gave them types.
