It's an extremely strange and extraneous type, however it serves a use in gameplay. Same goes for Fairy. It's dumb as fuck and almost always just means "it is pink/cute", but it serves its role.

All of the weird shit like this boils down to localization being retarded. Kinda like Splash and Curse.

Speaking of bugs, why can't it just be called the insect type? I mean, not all insects are bugs. I was going to upload an image but 4chan is being a dick rn

Hey pal, FUCK you. Say that shit to my face instead of online and see what happens, unless you were talking exclusively about Mudbray line, Diggersby, and Garchomp.

FROST

DRAGON/BEAST/MYTHICAL
>Dragon remains unchanged or called beast or mythical to help diversify designs.
NULL

I'm not getting into the type effectiveness.

I tried to keep them from being too specifically one type of creature, like bird type or whatever.
Bug/Insect is the only one that I feel is too specific, but don't really know where to put them.

I agree with changing Flying and Fighting. Type names that end in -ing sound retarded.

Splash was retarded, but how else could they have translated Curse? It's a pun in Japanese

Dunnk how young you are, but Pokemania had a big "this is the work of Satan" stigma to it back in the late 90's and early 2000's. When gold and silver released, that was still a live criticism. Localizing it as "evil" would have opened up a huge can of worms. Dark at least comes off as something more abstract.

Also fighting is the "light" type. Dark type moves are like dirty fighting moves. Sucker punch, bite, beat up, etc. It's like fighting moves but the unsportsman kinds. Its why the swords of justice are fighting types.

They're literally just small rocks

Any "mud" based pokemon is just water/rock
