ITT: we come up with ideas for unused typings

I’d love a fire/fairy based on a wisp or some other mystical creature

>Poison/Steel
Radioactive bear, based on nuclear energy and the Chernobyl disaster. Stage 1 is a black teddy-bear looking fella, noted for being extremely dense and heavy. Its dark fur is actually a symbiotic fungus that feeds on its natural radiation, making it safe to own (though maybe not handle for long periods of time). Maybe it's Ability can be something that prevents poisoning. It evolves into Stage 2 through leveling up near others of its kind (maybe it tracks EVs, or requires you have one or two others in your party) or near an overworld element (maybe a powerplant or something).

Stage 2 is more of an actual bear, and in addition to its dark/grey coloring, takes in blue motifs, as a reference to cherenkov radiation. It has gone critical due to exposure to its own kind, but it's not exactly about to go nuclear - Its unique Ability gives all moves the slight possibility of inflicting poisoning, which is how it burns off excess radiation.

Pic related, it's why I picked a bear.

>When Carpalethe’s large fossilized armbone was first discovered it was initially thought to be the remains of a massive reptilian Pokémon, possibly a dragon type. However, with the advancement of Pokémon revival technology it was surprisingly discovered that the arms were just about the only physical structure that they have at all.

>Revived Kirorpses seem to gravitate toward fossil dig-sites, though it is presently unknown exactly how they are able to locate their fallen brethren without any prior knowledge of the area. It is speculated that they serve as guardians, protecting the spirits of Pokémon who had previously died in mass extinction events.

Okay, I'm going to go for Ground/Fairy
Suggestions I've seen before are: Fairy Armadillo, Gnome, and Dunsparce regional forms.
I can't think of anything right now, but I'll put my mind to it and see if I can come up with something.

Just to get some of the normal-typings out of the way. You can have small, humanoid, 'Snow white and the 7 dwarf', kind of creatures.

You can have a variant who's like a miner. Knowing mostly rock/normal/ground moves.
Then you've got one who's a metal worker who learns mostly steel/normal/fire moves.
It isn't hard to picture literally Ice Climbers from Smash in pokemon form.
You could even have a Normal/Ghost as a Luigi's mansion reference

Really nice work! Adding to the Seven Dwarves theme:

>Normal/Poison
Toad-stool farmer.
>Normal/Bug
'Horseman' or smurf-knight who rides a giant bug.

Give 'em a Normal/Normal (sic) pre-evo as the seventh dwarf, and Fighting/Fairy master based on pic related to round out the group.

For Ground/Fighting you could have a pokemon that uses Dìshùquán, or 'Dog kung fu', which specializes in takedowns and 'ground fighting'.

From reading the wiki you can pick at details on how it would operate, such as 'often taking advantage of utilizing techniques from an inferior position' and 'This martial art also teaches Iron Shirt and Iron Palm fighting methods as well as specialized leaping techniques'

I feel like switching forms during battle kind of defeats the point though, because then you're not Normal and Ghost at the same time.
Or if it's like Morpeko's ability then why bother? Why waste the ability slot just to swap the type of one move?

Be more creative, like this:

>Ground/Fairy
Appears as a small blue flame, and lives in mines. If miners treat them with respect, Soames will lead them to rich deposits of minerals. They can also forewarn miners of cave-ins. However, they are hard workers and expect to be paid a working man's wages, equal to those of an average putter (a mine worker who pushes the wagons). Their payment is often left in solitary corners of the mine, and they won't accept any more or less than they are owed for honest work. Soames who feel taken advantage of are known to cut the rope-traces by which the assistant putter was yoked to the tub, leading to lost miners or mine-carts.

It can learn Pay Day, and also has an important role in finding good Secret Base spots for young trainers, over whom it feels protective.

There, that was easy. Took like 10 minutes of research.

Why don't you let it evolve into the The Fire-Fairy. It is based on folklore from the Ural region. Instead of letting the pokemon consume the souls of lost travelers, it gives them gold.

I was trying to go for a contrasting looks-cute-but-is-deadly kinda vibe. It's Fairy, which reflect its innocent look and folklore origin and Fire, which reflects its dangerous nature.

And the reason why I didn't think of an evolution like was because I was creating the stats based on one-off Pokemon like Sableye and Mawile.

'cute but deadly' is generally a Ghost-type trait, isn't it? I could be wrong, but consuming souls also feels very ghostly.

I mean the obvious answer would be Shrodinger's Cat. We already have a comatose pokemon in Komala, complete with ability. Breathdeath seems a bit dark for pokemon lol.

>>45610096
A lot of ghost types are just spirits possessing [thing] like Golurk, or Polteageist. The only thing I can thing of that fit that aren't literal ghosts would be something like a genie/djinn, though we have Hoopa already.
