Staryu and Starmie, just seem like they would be a Water/Steel type from their appearance in the anime.

There's a big jewel, it should be Water/Rock if anything.

Should be Psychic/Rock unironically

We're way past the point of aquatic = water type. Conceptually it's relationship to water is negligible anyway.

Aggron should have been Steel/Ground. Comparing the defensive typings of Steel/Rock and Steel/Ground. It just isn't fair.

Even though Steel/Rock has a quad resistance to Normal and Flying, those are primarily physical attackers, so just resisting them is fine enough. And while you would get a weakness to fire as a result of being Ground. A Steel/Rock has two quad weaknesses to both Fighting and Ground, which are the two best attacking types in the games.

A quad weakness is already really hard to work with, but two is suicidal. Which is why Mega Aggron was so good just becoming pure steel since Aggron was so bad defensively.

Slowpoke should be pure psychic with Slowbro turning psychic/water(the water type comes from Shellder)

Always thought Kricketune could be Bug/Normal.
Also Samurott deserve a second Type. Steel is the most logic outside of Fighting, but Water/Dragon would be awesome (despite having no sense at all, just like Rhyperior learning Fly)

Aggron was fine back in gen 3, the real problem is 4 and 5 buffing the fuck out of Fighting types. They were never meant to be that fast or strong or have a spammable 120 BP STAB move. You can count the number of viable Rock and Normal types since then on one hand.

No, next I'm going to say Tyranitar should've been Dark/Ground or Dark/Steel
1) because rock type sux and tyranitar is too cool for that
2) Steel was a new type and should've been on more Gen 2 pokemon.

gen 1 has a lot of instances of this for me, like analyzing everything about Oddish and Bellsprout they should be mono Grass and evolve into Grass/Poison, and Onix and the Golem should just be mono Rock, and Clefairy just screams Psychic type with all the moon stuff, I could go all day

Give it Dry Skin though (Water Absorb, +25% damage from Fire, healed by rain and damaged by sun).

Would help If a future gen gave Pokémon multiple abilities (or made Rock types immune to status or something).

Original evolves from Water (Staryu) to Water/Psychic (Starmie).
Make it a Rock/Water that evolves into Rock/Psychic, both with Dry Skin.

Going by the "trade evolutions swap traits" concept

>Gastly + Haunter (Ghost/Poison) -> Gengar (Ghost/Dark)
>Abra + Kadabra (Psychic/Dark) -> Alakazam (Psychic)

>Geodude + Graveller (Rock) -> Golem (Rock/Normal)
>Machop + Machoke (Fighting/Normal) -> Machamp (Fighting)

Onix stays as Rock/Ground, since it's known for burrowing.

why is swablu a normal type? it made sense fore the regular birds, but swablu isn't a regular bird, it's a monster with clouds for wings that vaugely resembles a bird. its design absolutely screams "pure flying" but gamefreak still refused to use that type "combination" for 2 more gens, and refused to give more than a single legendary that type for 3 more gens after that. why does gamefreak hate the flying type so much?
