Definitely Dark.

Most Dark types have high Attack and/or Special Attack stats, which is very nice. They're also hard to defend against and cause super-effective damage to. Not to mention they're the coolest looking type overall.

Houndoom, Tyranitar, Sneasel, Murkrow, Umbreon, Mightyena, Absol, etc. They all rule.

Meh, I'm more partial to Ground. It is the only type that will beat down Electric, an obscenely overused type, and most Ground Pokemon have excellent Defense and Attack scores, despite their weakness towards Special types. But then again, you need heavy, reliable physical attackers to balance out the Special-attackers in your team, right? That's what Ground is there for. They ward off Steel, Poison, Fire, Rock, and the aforementioned Electric with ease, making Ground potentially indestructible against a multitude of types. There are also many powerful Pokemon that are Ground or partially Ground: Golem, Sandslash (my personal favorite) Swampert, Gligar, Donphan, Steelix, Nidoking/queen, Dugtrio, Rhydon, and, of course, the omnipotent Groudon, who has secured himself in many a team.

Fire Pokemon have Sky-High Sp. Attack and thats good. And they look cool too.

Too bad almost every electric Pokémon packs a Hidden Power of ice, grass, or water these days. =\

Indeed, indeed. *sighs* But no Type is perfect, right? *glares at Metagross* I suppose the most Special-oriented Ground-type would be Piloswine, if I am not mistaken.... In any case, I still vouch for Ground, despite the glaring Special weakness. I wish Attack and Defense power were more important in the contemporary battle scenario, however. Special seems to be taking over.

dark and/or steel anyday baby!
its da bomb!

Dark_Absol April 8th, 2004 7:21 PM

Bug pokemon! i love them! they're the best!

Cherrim April 8th, 2004 7:23 PM

I like electric types for no reason other than the fact that my top favourite Pokemon all fall under that type. o.o;; I also like psychic, but not nearly as much. XP

Pokedragonfire April 9th, 2004 1:04 PM

DarkCharizardOfTheNight April 9th, 2004 8:53 PM

Well, well looks like you've just ran into one *points to his avatar* XD.

Do I really need to explain what my favorite type is? Good... but I do want to add some content so I'll tell you anyway :P

What got me into liking the dragon types so much? Well, the primary reason is the fact that I already liked dragons and the stories associated with them way before pokemon came into my life. But gaming-wise, I think what I really like about dragon types is that they're resistant to many types, even the annoying electric types, w00t! And Dragonite, being my absolute favorite pokemon is one of the few pokemon that can take down a legendary fairly easily... well in most cases, lol.

Intuition April 10th, 2004 6:44 AM

My fav. type is psycic :shocked:

Pokedragonfire April 10th, 2004 9:03 AM

Yeah, I know my AV not a dragon, but I like fire too (especially Blaziken) I'm gonna change it later.

Wing Zero April 10th, 2004 9:06 AM

I love drasgons! I am obsessed with dragons due to their super natural powers and their mytholocial correlation...basically what im saying is that they are the coolest and they are extreamly powerfull...what more could you want?

Legendary_Pokegirl April 10th, 2004 9:09 AM

Fire! Fire Pokemon are cool!

Pokedragonfire April 10th, 2004 9:27 AM

I'm MORE obsesed than you are Wing Zero :P

Pokedragonfire April 10th, 2004 9:29 AM

I'm more obsesed than anyone! When I get older, I'm cloning a real live dragon. Then it will destroy everyone! Wah ha ha ha! (Oopsy I double posted Wah ha ha ha!)

Wing Zero April 10th, 2004 9:29 AM

Pokedragonfire April 10th, 2004 9:30 AM

I'm more obsessed I can name them!
 
Okay I'll prove it. Name 5 types (species) of dragons. I bet you can't :P I will if you can't! Just admit it, you can't.

Wing Zero April 10th, 2004 9:57 AM

Actually almost every legendary can learn Ice Beam. x_x; I wish Dragonite had a good trait, like Tyranitar. Inner Focus is bleh…or Intimidate like Salamence would have been good too.

Genji__Fujiwara444 April 10th, 2004 10:16 AM

Favorite type...Hmm...I'd have to go with Steel.

It is the cheapest type hands down, most elements of the game are uneffective against it.

Steel, Dark, Dragon, Ghost, Rock, Bug, Psychic, Flying, Poisen(which doesn't even effect it!), Grass, Ice and Normal.

Thats ALOT of elements, way too cheap IMO and all those resistences + good defenses is what makes Registeel such a great tank and is why Metagross is so amazing.

Dark_Alakazam April 10th, 2004 10:49 AM

Psychic....no contest. My fav Alakazam is part of that type. I just believe that there are many pokemon that are great with psychic. Of course, many dropped off in R/S.... :disappoin

Pokedragonfire April 10th, 2004 2:09 PM

Mythology not Pokemon. Now name them!
