Type combo thread.

What's your favorite type combination?
What unused type combo do you really want to see?
What's the worst type combination?
It's Grass/Psychic
What's the objective best type combination?
Is it Water/Ground?
Bug/Steel?
Ghost/Dark?
...Pure Normal?

Ghost/Normal would be so incredible. 3 immunities, two of which are nullified weaknesses. Imagine one with Levitate, too

Obvious error is obvious, Skorupi and Drapion could go either way, I dislike the it's purple so it's a Poison type method. Dark for Luxray is justified as its ability and nature fits a brutal Pokémon. Crunch is already its best move.
I know Flygon would get worse, Bug/Ground fits it the most, IMO.
Primeape is dirty, it no longer lives on the tree, plus Stomping Tantrum.
Stantler is spooky in description and since Gen 7 you don't have to be a literal ghost to be a ghost.

this chart is better and less redundant

it lists type combos by first fully evolved (in the gen it was introduced) mon of that type, and also greys out combos that only have legendary/form/mega representants.

alola forms are basically standalone/separate Pokémon themselves so they "count"

No, Goodra too. 3-staged singel type Pokémon are actually pretty rare.
Dragon, Fighting, Fire, and Fairy only have two such lines.
Rock, Ghost, Steel, and Ice have only one.
Poison, Ground, Bug, Flying, and Dark have none.
Psychic has 3.
Grass and Water have 4.
Electric and Normal have 5.

Probably Rock/Ice, too many weaknesses. Poor Aurorus.

Bug Fire is my favorite, as weak as it is to sneaky pebbles. Would love to see a physical fire bug in future gens.

I'd love to see a Dragon/Bug and Ice/Bug (even though it would suck hard) the most.

Dark/Grass as cool as the pokemons are is probably the worst one. Scarf U-turn beats all of them, and they have a lot of weakness in general.

Best combination, probably steel/fairy

If there's an Ice/Bug it'd have to be a serious, fast glass cannon. Smogon has a good fakemon.

The best combination is Water/Ground with sap sipper. Absolutely no weaknesses and two immunities. Three if you hold an air balloon, not that you should.

Water needs a nerf. So does Fairy.

I don't think water needs a nerf just because it's good. I just think some stronger counters could be crafted.

A non-rotom electric/grass type would be sweet.

mathematically speaking fairy/steel is the best defensive typing and ice/ground is the best offensive typing. And yes, psychic/grass is the worst typing. Of course pokemon being pokemon all types have their uses depending on what you are going up against and even the "best" types can be exploited. I feel like this is a good thing.

I really want to see a grass/fire pokemon. I feel like there is a lot of design space in the combo and it's a shame the typing has gone unused for so long. I also want to see them finish off all of the ghost typings. Ghost has a lot of fun to use and interesting pokemon, it feels like the only type that always delivers no matter how gimmicky.

I feel like it's just a matter of time before we get a hot pepper Fire/Grass Pokemon. It's too obvious. A Jack-o-lantern was the most obvious unmade Pokemon concept until Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist.

Shiinotic should have been a lot of things. It's only marginally better than Parasect. Fairy/Poison would have been a lot cooler.

Why such shit stats? Is it really just because of Spore?

I just want a comfy sun-themed grass type like Bellossom that I can run sunny day, flamethrower, and solarbeam on with that sweet typing and superior aesthetic. Even if it was something like Cherrim's sun form that was a weather condition, I wouldn't mind it.
