>>40803037I'd like it if there were more Metal Coat esque evolutions, where you can change a pokemon's type by evolving it/levelling it up with a certain item. The fan-made pokemon tabletop rpg has something similar, where you can "type shift" a pokemon to change its type, and I feel like its a concept that could be used by more pokemon than just Eevee, Metal Coat evos and Regional variants. If giving all pokemon 16-17 different types and forms is too much effort, then it could at least be used to turn certain types into others to increase the number and diversity of certain types that are lacking.
