Crystal is just rock. Slug is just a water/bug. Food is just cooked animals and plants. Wind is just flying.
>>36403126
Light is arguably filled by fairy, and techno harkens back to steel

Mushroom type

Weak to ice and bug
Strong to grass

Wouldn't help with balance but it bugs me that fungus Pokemon are classed as grass type. I can think of lots of interesting and unique Mushroom-type Pokemon, too

I think "Grass" is a better catch-all term than, say, "Plant," because they can include not only plants but shit that grows or thrives in grassy settings like fungi.

if someone forced me to make it:
>tecnho
>effective against Ghost, Dark and Psychic
>weak to Electric and Water,
>resistant to Bug, Poison, Fairy and Grass,
>neutral to the rest,
so it would be an awkward mix of steel and psychic.

>Crystal
>it's weak to Sound, fight, steel and ground,
>resistant to Light, Normal, Bug, Flying, grass
>(neutral to water)
it's a another variation on steel and rock types

Light is filed by fairy desu, The thing is that it's japanese so they called it fairy because their meant to be spirits of nature whereas westerners have the concept of angels/cleric classes. It might've been better to call it 'sacred', 'holy' or 'devine' type to cover both ideas.

>>36403171
not OP but I would guess it's nearly the same as Bug type except it's weak to Bug types, so yet another weakness for grass.

Quoted By:

No new types, just type rebalances.

Every suggested new addition fits into something we have.
Light? Fairy/Psychic/Fighting for the "good" interpretation, Fire/Electric/Steel for literal light.
Sound? A component of Normal, just like plants/fungi both fit into Grass.
Cosmic? Psychic.
Cyber/Techno? Steel or Electric would probably fit, but this might be the type that could best make itself unique, although most of the Pokemon in the type would likely be pretty damn similar to each other.
Wind/Air? Don't be stupid. Flying.

Everything else suggested is even more terrible than those.

Rock-type

Weak to:
>Poison: A lot of rock and roll artists have problem with drugs and/or drinking
>Fire: Equipment is susceptible to overheating, a show can be ended prematurely by the venue catching fire
>Flying: Rock and roll artists have a habit of dying in plane and helicopter crashes
>Rock: Rocks would wreck equipment

Resists:
>Electric: Electricity powers instruments that aren’t drums
>Ghost: Artists are remembered beyond the grave for their music
>Steel: Metal was inspired by rock
>Itself

Strong against:
>Fighting: Rock tends to carry anti-war sentiment and can unify people
>Psychic: Rock can influence people’s minds and beliefs
>Ghost: Rock can influence how the dead are remembered
>Dark: Rock and roll is used as a weapon against the perceived evils of society

Resisted by:
>Poison: Going back to the above, rock has a habit of glorifying drug use. “Devil in the Bottle” is Rock’s equivalent to Freeze-Dry against Poison-types
>Water, Ice, and Dragon: Rock was inspired by the blues
>Itself

R.I.P. Mega Sableye

R.I.P. Unova Elite Four

BONUS ROUND: OTHER FANTYPES
>Sound: Mutual resistance
>Cosmic: Resists, some bands or songs have space gimmicks
>Wind: Resists, some rock music is supplemented by brass or woodwind instruments
>Holy: Resists, rock music is either blasphemous or already reverent
>Crystal and Glass: Strong against, loud music shatters glass and crystals
>Cyber: Weak to, digital piracy reduces profits from music. The internet allows you to tell me to go back to >>>/mu/

I'm giving this a second thought:

>beats - Dark, Psychic, ghost,
they tend to cause madness so I'm thinking they should beat them, as well as 'black magic' stuff

>resists - Water
creatures tended to come from the ocean thus aquatic.

>resisted by Ice
to give a buff but if you reference stories like 'in the mountains of madness', they are used to cold temperatures so they might resistant to Ice.

>weak to Poison, Grass, Bug, fairy
they come from another dimensions I'm thinking they wouldn't be used to diseases or earthly nature

We have enough types to cover absolutely everything human minds could possibly conceive. This is strengthtened by the fact normal acts as a catch-all type to fill any voids.

What about alternative names for existing types?
>Normal - Wild
>Grass - Plant
>Flying - Wind
>Ground - Earth
>Fairy - Magic
>Fighting - Power
What else can you think of?

Hell, this makes me wonder how a music-themed RPG would play. Having types based on genres would be awesome.
Rock, Metal, Punk, Pop, Jazz, Blues, Rap, Reggae, Ambience, Techno, Acapella... of course, with variations like Hard, Soft, Progressive, Alternative, Classic.

Would be really neat.

Sound (but not really)

here's what I propose we Don't introduce a sound type but instead we use moves and abilities to develop that branch of the Normal type.

>Hyper Voice/Boom Burst
the same but it does normal damage against Ghost, Rock, Steel

>Vibration Punch (new)
it super effective against Rock, Steel and maybe Ice but their cucked as it is

Gaia type

Im imagining something along the lines of a druid or spriggan, a creature from skyrim composed of magical energy. Something that is tied with the life energies of nature and all natural phenomenon such as weather, life and death, eco systems, etc. A sort of mystical being that encompasses our universe, natural wonder and earthly energy

I would Imagine the Gaia type to have high offensive stats with average to low speed and a great movepool with lots of coverage

Super effective against Itself, Dark, Steel

Cute is strong against fighting but weak against fairy and steel. Lore: unpunchable face, but fairy and steel don't give a shit

Ugly is strong against fairy but weak against fighting and dark. Lore: fairy's vomit at the sight of them but very punchable face and dark wants to kill them

Example cute: Persian, Delcatty, Cinccino
Example ugly: Slaking, Purugly, Watchog
