Having two really great offensive typings, like Rock/Fighting, is just always going to be good.
Though I don't think Rock/Fighting is on the same level as Ice/Electric

Fbolt + Ice Beam + Earth Power is guaranteed perfect coverage with its ability.

Most of the stuff you want to hit with ice has a 4x weakness, so you can get away with using hidden power. Which means pretty much any moderatly powerfull special electric has access to it.

If your type is not on this list, it's s h i t.
Bug, Rock, Ghost, and Poison can also work with the same number of types, so they're fine.

iirc Rock and Ground is a superior combo, and much more likely to be achievable on one pokemon:
>hits everything neutral or better apart from the three grass/fighting types and torterra
>chuck on some generic flying tm like aerial ace

>if you run flameboltbeam, only rotom heat and alolan marowak with LR resist all of your attacks
Electric/fire is such an interesting typing, I wish we get some other than rotom in sword and shield.

Also I wonder how busted tri-attack would be if it had the flameboltbeam matchup built into its code.

We already have Hyper Voice, and it wouldn't be too outlandish to just introduce a replacement base 90 special normal attack
I would have each hit 30 base power each being fire, electric, and ice each with its 10% chance of status

This is solely from the point of view of maximizing the amount of super effective coverage. If you have a better four types moveset feel free to share.

Dragonite can pull it off with Earthquake, Brick Break, Thunder Punch and Wing Attack/Aerial Ace (both weak but STAB) or Fly. I used one in-game and was pretty good. Infernape can pull it off too.
