New Typing Combos for Gen 5
 
Well we've already seen

(I'm not sure if these are right/confirmed)
Dragon/Fighting (Ononokusu)
Ghost/Rock (Desukan)
Bug/Electric (Denchura)

But what else do you think we'll see?

I'd like to see a Fire/Bug, an Electric/Psychic and an Electric/Fighting.
An Ice/Fighting would be pretty sick as well

its rumored that ice/fighting, normal/ghost, poison/dragon and rock/dragon will happen.

An Ice/Fighting pokemon would be a Dragon Counter.

Dillon_68 July 19th, 2010 6:36 PM

Fighting/Flying ftw. Sounds like an idea for a Farfetch'd evo.

Jerme July 19th, 2010 6:43 PM

ice/steel= ultramate dragon counter

bug/dragon= finally an overpowered bug type

ghost/normal= only weak to dark

Planetes. July 19th, 2010 7:08 PM

A dragon counter would be nice with Garchomp and possibly Ononokusu running around in the uber tier

Renege July 19th, 2010 7:18 PM

Electric/Fire, explosions ftw. I think so. It could be like a bomb type species. Terrorist Pokemon!

None of them have been confirmed yet, even if the trailer that revealed those Pokemon give hints as to what types they are. Heck, there's really not too much info from those three yet. So I would wait and see until their types are confirmed.

Also, actually besides Reshiram (Dragon/Fire) and Zekrom (Dragon/Electric), another new combo is that ground crocodile Pokemon, Meguroko (Ground/Dark).

As for me, I would like to see Electric/Fighting or Ice/Fighting. Punch attacks FTW! XD

Calder July 19th, 2010 7:23 PM

I want a Water/Fire and Grass/Fire lol we have Water/Grass we need a combo for the other start types together... Water/Fire as a Oil Bomb Pokemon and Grass/Fire as a Forest Fire Pokemon Gets a match and lights Smokey the Bear on fire

BleuVII July 19th, 2010 7:45 PM

I'd like to see a water/fire also. A steam-based pokemon. I'd also like to see them get creative with fire types in the way they've gotten creative with water types too.

PaxAmericana July 19th, 2010 7:56 PM

electric/grass: a electric tree

Jaiyke July 19th, 2010 8:59 PM

Water/Steel? can be based off a/an [insert Fish Species Here] and a Submarine?

You mean like how Empoleon was a combination penguin + torpedo? XD

I'd like to see poison/fire, poison/steel, bug/dark, and electric/rock. :P

Ice steel would be nice but it would be th WORST typing in the game..

4x weak to Fire
4x weak to fighting
2x weak to ground

3 very common Types.

I'd like to see.

Ice rock-Possible a worse type than the above..
4x to Fighting
4x to steel
2x to ground
2x to water
2x to grass?
without the various immunities and resistances that steel has also.

Electric Ground

Steel Ghost

Bug Rock

Bug Ground

Bug Dark

StratusJm July 20th, 2010 5:11 AM

poison/dragon arbok evo ftw

Planetes. July 20th, 2010 6:19 AM

I'm not a fan of what they did in Hoenn with like 8 dragons, but I'd like to see a regular Pokemon like Seaking, Arbok, or a seperate Onix evo become dragons upon evolution.
Or an Ice/Dragon

cipE July 20th, 2010 6:28 AM

Ice/Fire - I don't know that would just be really hard to design in my opinion and it seems like an interesting thing to do.
Poison/Dragon would really be nice for arbok.
I want to see more variety in Eletric types with like Eletric/Grass or Eletric/Ground.

Really, they need to make non-crappy looking evolutions for the pokemon that only have one form (Farfetch'd).

PaxAmericana July 20th, 2010 6:30 AM

Steel/Dragon type is what i want

rocky505 July 20th, 2010 6:40 AM

Too bad we already have a steel/dragon

Sammuthegreat July 20th, 2010 9:20 AM

Fire/Electric, Fire/Psychic, Fire/Poison. That's my top three.

it's a Torpedo? i didn't know that o-o i knew Sharpedo was...

how about a Normal/Ghost xDD that'd be interesting to see ;D
and an Electric/Ice o-o
maybe a Dark/Steel =DD

Steel/Ice/Dragon xDDDDD

Oh man, you forgot Empoleon? That penguin is quite well known and been used in competitive battles a lot. :P

I don't think there's going to be a Normal/Ghost. Both Normal and Ghost Pokemon won't be able to hit it. Then again, you have Dark/Ghost. D:

As for triple-types, don't think that's going to happen either. It'll be hard to keep track of the weakness and resistance for those Pokemon that have that. Also, it hasn't been confirmed (yet) that there will be triple types. In short, yes it will suck if triple types were to happen. :P

ninjaman July 20th, 2010 1:09 PM

fire/ice
ice/bug
grass/ghost
grass/dragon
dragon/bug
