Triple types? No...just no. Dual-type pokemons are more than enough.

Dual types attacks like other people mentioned would be a lot more appropriate.

Especially if they make the dual attacks finally give Rock, Ice, and Grass types an edge in competitive battles.

What kinds of already-existing moves do you think that these kinds of Pokémon could use and that could be enhanced with a second typing?

I think that would just add way too much complexity to the game mechanics, there's already enough combinations for dual-types with the 17 types that haven't been used yet. It just doesn't really make sense to do it right now.

Triple types would literally make me quit the game. It adds too much confusion to a game that is meant for kids and it could possibly break any semblance of balance the game already has. On top of that, moves' base powers would have to be adjusted too much to accommodate a 6x weak / 6x resist so that they weren't too powerful / too weak.
