What if every Pokemon was discovered to have a "tertiary type"?
Tertiary types have been difficult to identify up until now because humans can't see the difference with the naked eye.
T-Types (for the sake of dumb little kids) have their own type chart and are assigned to moves based on the Pokemon using them. That way, you won't have, say, Gyarados using a super-effective flying type move with STAB that requires the use of its non-existant wings.
Example:
Swampert: Water-Ground-Fish
Glalie: Ice-Mineral
>Swampert used Hammer Arm
Hammer Arm would usually be super effective, but because Fish<Mineral, Hammer Arm becomes neutral.
Discuss the idea of a third type. Change my idea to make actual sense.
