I think its already good as it is. I mean Fire & Electric are already like Yin & Yang if you actually think about it.

I doubt they will make a new type, but with this region it's possible. A new region=new types. I don't think there was any nw types after the second generation (G,S,C), though.
|
Fire = Natural way of light, Reshiram seems more natural.
Electricity = Modern way of light, Zekrom seems more technological. I think they fit it quite nicely with the Black City/White Forest contrast and the overall concept of this storyline so far. |
idk i wish they would make a light type, it just makes sense though i mean, light bein g a bright white pokemon and dark being a jet black one, JUST LIKE THE LEGENDARIES! (imagine that :P) but i see where it would cause issues because of all the other gen games and making it work with all the other elemental types :/ ohh well
|
I like the fire/electric opposition (not so much the dragon typing; that was lame.) Not having psychic/dark as yin/yang felt wasteful at first, but it's so much better than the expected. It's so much better than the lame light type idea that got thrown around.
|
Fire/Electric and the light does make sense...but, also, the dragon-typing works, sadly.
Yin/Yang cancel eachother out, right? Well, Dragon and Ghost are the only types that are super-effective on themselves... |

Yeah, although Reshiram kind of reminds me of white flames. Zekrom has that bright blue spot on top of its head, so that could be something relating to electriicity. They're kind of like Palkia, which didn't look too much like a water-type. Reshiram and Zekrom are made to look more like Dragon-Types than their secondary, I think.

Fire and Electric work well as "opposite" pairings because neither has an advantage over the other. You see that as far back as Electabuzz and Magmar from Gen I. Not to mention the relationship between Valley Windworks / Fuego Ironworks in Gen IV.
That being said, I was a big supporter of the Light type as a "holy" type, because I thought it would be interesting to have something that was the complete opposite of Dark. We don't really get complete opposites in Pokemon, which prefers to work in triangles. Personally though, I really like the Fire/Dragon and Electric/Dragon combo. Not only are both of them unique types; they also work well with each other. |
Reshiram should stick to being a Dragon/Fire while Zekrom should change to Dragon/Ice, then it'd be epic.
A totally win - win situation if you ask me, Reshiram being a fire type which is effective against ice while Zekrom's ice attacks are super effective against the dragon type. |

Fire -> Ice (x2) Dragon (x0.5) = Neutral damage Ice -> Fire (x0.5) Dragon (x2) = Neutral damage No change. Pretty cool, though I like the triangle thing better, personally. |

Now i think that is just perfect. Both pokemon have no advantage over each other... |

FIRE and ICE But I do understand the yinyang of elec and fire |
Ok, this game is SCREAMING at me Yin Yang I mean look:
Black and White Fire and Electric Natural and Technogical and wayy more |
I don't think the problem are elec/fire types but dragon: they should be psy/fire and dark/electric...it would make more sense.
|
Reshiram is fine with it's typing. Here's why. Yang, by contrast, is fast, hard, solid, focused, hot, dry, or aggressive; and is associated with fire, sky, the sun, masculinity and daytime. However Reshiram's doesn't make sense. Yin is characterized as slow, soft, yielding, diffuse, cold, wet, or tranquil; and is associated with water, earth, the moon, femininity and nighttime.
|
i see how their types represent yin and yang now, so im fine with it. i think it was a much better idea than introducing a light type.
|
They're a bit awkward, but also rather appropriate.
Too often one legendary of a duo can easily beat the other: Lugia > Ho-Oh due to Water moves. Kyogre > Groudon due to typing. Dialga > Palkia both Draon, but Dialga has a resistance to Water. While both members of this duo are Dragon types, one of their Secondary types doesn't to double damage to the other. |
^ Groudon has drought though so it can lower down the water moves.
|
a light type to balance out dark and psychic to make a trio of sorts would be epic.
|
No a Light type is not needed and it would ruin the game we already have types that cover light anyway.
