>>26485143As it stands the move Bite is more similar to Dark Pulse than Super Fang, so yeah I guess.
>>26485225>>26485248What I thought of most was the Pokemon that would be getting retyped. I felt a "Shadow" type could soundly apply to most Ghost/Dark types that currently exist, as "shadow" can refer to both "things that go bump in the night" and "nefarious monsters". I can't deny that something is lost in combining them, but that's the case in consolidating any of these types. The biggest loss would be the intangibility aspect of Ghosts, but I feel that could be remedied with a move that gives immunity to Fighting and/or Normal, given to former Ghost types.
>>26485205Ice and Water could be combined conceptually, but I just can't see many existing Ice types being retyped to Water. Ice also fills thematic roles with Earth and Steel/Metal as "mineral types", and with Electric as "extra Elements".
