Are there any types that tend to be best as either physical or special attacks?
For example, it seems to me that electric tends to be best as special attacking type because most of the key things it is strong against(most bulky waters, skarmory, mendibuzz) tend to be physically defensive. Grass is the same way, almost everything it hits hard is physically defensive. Psychic, oddly, seems better physically as most of the major things you will find yourself using it on(mega venusaur, probably a lot of fairies) are specially defensive and even if you have some coverage moves anything that resists or is immune to psychic has a lot of special defense, anyway. And fire doesn't care because everything it hits takes 4x damage, anyway.
