Your top three favorite types!
 
Of all the existing types, which three are your favorites, in order?

PageEmp October 2nd, 2019 3:54 AM

1. Water
2. Electric

3rd usually depends on my mood. Usually it’s like Grass or Dragon or whatever.

Caite-chan October 2nd, 2019 7:19 AM

Mine would be Electric, Steel and Poison in that order. Electric has always been my favorite though.

Fairy October 2nd, 2019 7:58 AM

Fairy, Dark, and Ice! :D

Soaring Sid October 2nd, 2019 9:25 AM

These threads are interesting! Hmm, I would go with Fire, Dragon and Flying.

Taemin October 2nd, 2019 12:56 PM

Fire, Flying, and Electric.

Which is ironic in one way, because I hate fire, won't even light a match, buT HECK IF ITS NOT MY FAVORITE POKEMON ELEMENT. 👌

I'm torn between Ice and Normal for my #1 favorite type. I really like using Ice-type moves and used to run a mono-Ice team, but I've noticed that more of my favorite Pokémon are Normal-type when I list them. I also enjoy a lot of Bug Pokémon and am fascinated by insects IRL.

Just for fun, here are what my mono-type teams for each might look like:

Ice and Fairy are my top 2 favorites, while my 3rd rotates depending on how I feel. Right now I'll say Psychic, but Steel's usually up there pretty high, too.

colours October 3rd, 2019 11:03 PM

1. Grass
2. Ice

and my third constantly fluctuates. i'd say that it's probably... Psychic at the moment? but that's mostly because there's a lot of Psychic Pokemon that I like, so...

Reyzadren October 4th, 2019 2:40 AM

1. Dark
2. Ground
3. Fairy

TemedriMaister October 5th, 2019 7:56 AM

1. Dragon
2. Dark
3. Poison

Quiji October 5th, 2019 1:39 PM

Water is my favorite type, followed by Dragon and Psychic. Water because I've always liked Water-type Pokemon and characters who specialize in them, Dragon because it's a type that's always seemed strong and reliable, and Psychic because some of my favorite Legendary and Mythical Pokemon [like Mew, Lugia, and Deoxys] are Psychic-types.

Sheep October 6th, 2019 12:30 PM

1) Electric
2) Grass
3) Water, I think.....though this one is hard to pick.

Very hard to top my electric spot. Probably impossible actually. Ghost used to be higher up but fell down a bit when I discovered new favorites!

Cubeth October 9th, 2019 6:51 PM

1. Poison
2. Psychic
3. Steel

FeraligatrMaster October 10th, 2019 4:06 AM

1: Water
2: Electric
3: Ghost

goodkale October 10th, 2019 9:58 AM

1. Water, a surfer is me
2. Electric, from the early days of Pikachu
3. Grass

Firox October 10th, 2019 4:00 PM

01 - Fire
02 - Fairy
03 - the third was kind of hard, tie between dark and grass

faf October 13th, 2019 6:41 PM

1. Dragon
2. Dark
3. Flying? I'm not too sure at the moment but I also like Ghost.

It was only recently Dragon became my favourite type, although I'm not too surprised as a lot of my favourites are either Dragons themselves or they can learn a lot of Dragon-type moves.

Bahamut October 13th, 2019 11:29 PM

1. Dragon
2. Dark
3. Fire

Jtasticpokemontrainer707 October 16th, 2019 7:49 AM

I like Fire, plant and water .

Ys October 16th, 2019 12:19 PM

1. Ice: Ice Pokémon tend to be elegant and majestic (Cloyster, Articuno, Dewgong, Glaceon, Lapras)

2. Dark: they look strong and also elegant in a proud way (Zoroark, Mightyena, Absol, Umbreon, Houndoom)

3. Not sure. Maybe Fire because I tend to choose Fire starters and a lot of Fire types look cute and/or strong. But also water because water Pokémon also tend to be elegant and have nice designs.

Ninetales October 16th, 2019 1:58 PM

1. Flying: It's a type filled with an array of different pokemon. I find many flying types to be aesthetically pleasing and I've always desired to have wings of my own and fly through the sky!

2. Psychic: I've always been a huge fan of psychic types! They all have splendid designs and I've always been fascinated with telekinesis, mind control and other psychic capabilities!

3. Fairy: Fairy types are so adorable! I just love their designs and I've always had an interest with mythology and deities including fairies and sprites!

For me, I'd have to say that, in order, my favorite types are..

https://68.media.tumblr.com/ed3cb818acf47fc5489f766a0df0a8a5/tumblr_odlwbogLqx1ttdkobo1_400.gif
1. Fire
Favorite Pokemon: Arcanine
I don't really know why, but ever since my second game I've had a strong preference for fire types, and I've only ever failed to put a fire type in my team for one game, Pokemon Diamond. Anyone who has played Diamond will probably know why this was the case, given I'm not a fan of monkeys. Hilariously, I actually strongly dislike intense heat, and prefer to be in colder climates. It's always easier to warm up than to cool down, after all. And yet, I guess I'm drawn by the warmth of the type, like a moth to a flame. (Har har) Maybe I'm a pyromaniac? Or maybe I just enjoy the warm feeling of a good fire when it's cold out? Who knows. It definitely helps that fire types are usually very easy to locate.

2. Dark
Favorite Pokemon: Absol
I know you're probably thinking it. "Fire and Dark are your top two? You must like Houndoom!" ... Well yes, yes I do, but there are plenty of other Pokemon of this type I like. Absol, Mightyena, Honchkrow, Umbreon, Hydreigon, the list is pretty big. I really enjoy the aesthetic of the majority of Dark types, They look tough, like they mean business, like they'll knock you out just for looking at 'em funny. The thing is, many Dark types are also surprisingly soft-hearted. I can kinda relate. Without my glasses on I kinda have a scary face. Many years of ill fortune have basically etched a permanent scowl into my features, which my glasses partially hide. On the inside, though, I'm really sensitive and break really easily.
Another thing that I really enjoy about the Dark type is the fighting style. They're combat pragmatists. Dark type moves are full of secondary negative effects for the opponent, ranging from flinching to confusion to not being able to use items. Given my usual strategy is nothing more than charge in and throw out all the powerful moves, using a Dark type actually causes me to consider strategizing sometimes.

3. Electric
Favorite Pokemon: Luxray
Now this, right here? Wasn't always the case. Used to be Water type on account of my constant use of it. But, I have almost always raised an Electric type in every game too, and joining Team Instinct and gaining team pride kinda sealed the deal. On top of being good at stopping opponents from attacking with paralysis, most Electric types are quick on their feet, usually sacrificing defense for speed and power. This is also something I relate to, as while I can be pretty fast as needed, I've got next to no endurance to work with. One thing in particular that Electric types can do that brought them higher in my type fave list is actually how they're used in Pokemon Ranger, using their electricity to either power electrical objects or to recharge the Ranger's Capture Styler. Imagine how handy it'd be to be able to ask your electric type Pokemon to recharge a phone that's low on battery if you can't get to the next Pokemon Center in time to charge it normally! Of course, the better option would be to keep it charged, either by not using it actively or using a power bank. Not all Electric types are good at holding back their power after all.
