I see a lot of folks associating Pokémon's Types with personality traits. What I have NEVER seen is a system where one Type has MULTIPLE personalities under it. Think about it. Elemental symbolism in fiction applies in many different ways. You CAN'T just have a Type represent one personality, because saying your personality is Steel Type because you're righteous and knight-like, or because you are robotic and analytical, are clearly distinct, and yet both interpretations are valid.

Out of curiosity, I was wondering if you guys had ideas for 2-4 personality archetypes for just a few of the Types. For example:

Electric Type
>archetype A
Impatient, dynamic, reckless, thrill-seeking daredevil personality
>archetype B
Brilliant inventor personality, clever, free-thinking, eccentric
>archetype C
Hyperactive spazz. Erratic, bit of a class clown. neurotic.
>archetype D
A commanding, booming sort of person, like thunder. fierce and quick to anger

Ice Type
>A
Coolheaded, chill, calm and composed. Social, but a little aloof
>B
Frigid bitch, standoffish and haughty, cruel/harsh like the winter cold
>C
Lone wolf. dislikes getting too close to others, so keeps folks at an emotional distance. inexpressive.
>D
Pure like fresh snow. Soft-spoken, demure, innocent but fragile (like Lillie and her Vulpix)

I know this is very autistic. . .but c'mon, you wouldn't be on this board if you weren't a little bit too.
