>effective against bug-type
Any newly introduced types should not resist bug, should not be super effective against bug or be immune to bug.

I wish this had been a thing. I'd have loved angels, paladins, Eva-mons, white mages, green mages, and stuff like that.

I just don't understand why they made Fairy resist Bug.

They probably wanted to keep U-Turn in check.

Thank God it's not. This is not another fantasy genre.

I prefer the fairy type.
A third type based on folklore seems more credible to me

Which mons would have nuclear? Sounds stupid. Cyber is cool.
There should also be a typeless option for pokemon like type null although the existence of cyber would make it cyber

Like most (J)RPGs, Pokemon actually has most of those things. They're just not explicitly "Light-type", "holy-themed", or named as such. For example, several Pokemon such as Audino and Chansey (Blissey is probably more of a Paladin, IDK) are basically just white mages. The only things you don't see much of in Pokemon are archetypical "holy-themed" or "holy-adjacent" visual designs.

This is very much intentional.

True, but more like the "holy" aspect of light, not the scientific one (photon).

Light is the only viable one, and needs these changes (assuming Nuclear and Cyber don't exist obviously) for an overall healthier metagame (AKA never ever tier):

-Remove effectiveness to bug and psychic.
-Add effectiveness to water
-Add weakness to grass, ice, and bug
-Bug, Normal and Ice resist it
-Immunity to fairy attacks and resistance to water
-Ground or rock (whatever that is) doesn't resist it and it doesn't hit it SE

Does it make sense? Not really. I think it'd be pretty balanced though.

This also assumes the other types in linked chart stay (weak to poison, etc.)

How come it never caught on in the TCG? It only appeared in one expansion.
