I would discontinue none of them because it would totally out balence the entire game, not to meantion give some Pokemon no type, well unless you discontinued the flying type but flying is a very important type.

Poison.

Zubat. Tentacool. The annoying flashing screen. Most Poison types looks stupid in my opinion.

Yeah, I hate the Poison type with a heated passion.

Dragon.

No more n00bs going, "My pokeymans are invincible dragon-types, lol" only to get swept by anything that uses Ice Beam.

Dragons.
All of them are over-powered and generally a pain in the backside.
Especially when you want to battle people who are actually skilled at battling, not noobs that ALWAYS rely on some sort of Dragon to earn their victory.
Luckily they get smacked around with Ice Beam lolol
Bahh, pitiful. >:

Never been a fan of bug types, they just seem pointless to me since there are already grass types. So bug types would be eliminated for me.

You are aware that Ghost is resistant to Bug, right?

It's neutralizes Dark's Weakness to Bug, which means Sableye and Spiritomb have no Weakness.

But they still aren't used much for these reasons:

-Sableye's stats are too poor to be of any use.
-Spiritomb is outclassed by the Rotom Appliances.

I agree, there are some weak bugs (Caterpie/Metapod/Butterfree/Weedle/Kakuna/Beedrill to name a few), but not all of them. Just look at Pinsir, Heracross, Scyther, Scizor, Arceus-Bug (lol), Forretress and Ninjask.

Bug types are actually pretty useful, since they can help take out quite a few common pokemon in competitive play.

Normal or Steel.

Though most likely steel because depite the fact I liked Jasmine and Steelix is awesome... steel is just kinda pointless because it doesn't seem so prominent in the games anymore. And normal is just boring.

Surprised so many said bug, they're cute. :(

That's such a hard choice. I think I have a favorite Pokemon in every type. DX But I guess we have enough water Pokemon to last us another generation, so my choice goes to water. :P

Most definitely Bug types. I like certain Bug types, but for the most part they could just be turned into another type.

You're going to wish you never said that. :cer_pissed:

On the serious side, it's pretty hard for me to say, because like Silhouette I have favorites in each type, but if one was to go, I would have to say Dragon, since it is more of a physical trait than a direct description.

If I had to, it would probably be the poison types.
I just never find myself using them at all, and they don't really have any great abilities like water types, fire types, and fighting types do. This is just my opinion though.

Rock, why don't they just combine it with the ground type and call it "the Earth type" since both the rock and ground types are both made of the earth

another type I wish to see rid of is the Dragon type, it's a design of creature, not a "type", and they are ALL uber, hello, we have these things called Legendary Pokemon, which are supposed to be uber

Also, they should just make all the normal/flying types PURE Flying types, as any type combined with normal is likely lame, they should dump the Normal type too....

Poison. I hate Poison types with the burning fire of a thousand suns. My current, not-really-so-competitive-but-still-good-enough-to-hold-its-own team doesn't have any Psychic type moves (unless Espeon is filling in on the sixth slot, but that might get usurped by Salamence), so when I face something like the Zubat evolutionary family, I'm dead. Not to mention Sludge Bomb during the FireRed TriSpecies challenge was broken beyond belief, since my Pokémon nearly almost always got poisoned.

-huggles her Butterfree, along with all her other Bug pokemon- I still love you. ;~;

Anyways, IDK what I would actually want to rid of. Though if I had to discontinue anything, I guess it would be fighting. Though they're great, I never actually used one on my team other than for a few moments, so yeah. XD;

Though that'll only give Dark one weakness. Eh, whatv.

Poison types. Poisoning has been a pain in my backside. I hate it, even if my Pokemon are of high level and they STILL get Poisoned!

Plus Zubat? Don't get me started. That thing is annoying in caves.

I don't think any type must be erased. I think the metagame's already "balanced" except for the dragons, which I think, should get another weakness. I think they should add another type (Light, Dino, Space or something) and make it strong against Dragon and other types that need help. Also, dark needs another weakness and Normal needs something to be strong on.
