>>39925016>BugBecause huge monstrous insects with devastating powers is essentially the core of what Pokemon is, conceptually, if Satoshi Tajiri is to be believed. Also helps that Bug type has consistently the coolest designs.
>FlyingIt's the 'secondary typing' typing that you can slap onto anything to make it that much cooler. Elemental monster? How about FLYING elemental monster. Just give it wings and you've made your design better. Also birds are majestic.
>PsychicIn a game with classical elements, physical damage types like kung-fu Fighting, Rock and Steel, and mythical dragons breathing paralyzing breath, you have Psychic as an element. It's such a non sequitur that you can't help but love it, and in the earlier days of the franchise Psychic was also portrayed as a typing for very strong Pokemon, like legendaries and mythicals. The sort of monsters who can turn you into dust by just thinking about it. Also some humans in the Pokemon world are psychics or mediums? Rad.
