The Only types that seem realistic are light, Mystic, undead or virtual:

Light: even though steel kinda covers it, It could be the ying yang of dark with pokemon such as:
Arceus (no plate)
maybe some 5th Gen Pokemon

Mystic: already explain in other posts includes pokemon such as:
cleffa & evos
Togepi & evos
Jigglypuff & evos etc

Undead/zombie: Well they could be covered by a ghost/ground type but includes pokemon such as:
Cubone & evos etc

Vitual: any artificial or non-natural pokemon such as:
Deoxys
Porygon & evos
Ditto (?)

i say shadow:
they should also bring back the shadow pokemon, and make some new ones
for ex. a virus is speading through the wilderness, (like pokerus) and corrupting pokemon with the shadow disease.

p.s. as the person behind the mystic idea, i'd like to say thnxs for all the positive feedback ^_^

Similar themed ideas have already been raised, but how about a Mutant, Spirit, or Alien type?

Somebody mentioned Steam as an idea - which isn't as crazy as it sounds since there is already an Ice type and ice is just frozen water. Steam is hot water. It could have steam-powered pokemon, the already mentioned cloud pokemon, fog, balloon or geyser pokemon.

On a similar note, a Weather (or Storm?) or Gas type might have more potential.

And it's silly, but I'd like a Food type:
"A wild Casserobe appeared."
"Go, Muffink!"

I've already explained why steam doesnt work and ice does. Most Pokemon are based off of animals, and the arctic regions have enough biodiversity to base enough Pokemon off of it to make a large enough area of Pokemon, but you cant base enough off of steam.

Also, people suggestions typing like Shadow, Undead, Skull, ALL of these are a mixture of dark and ghost.

Virtual isnt TOO bad, but at this stage in the game, addind new types to pre-existant Pokemon would sort of undermine the whole thing, they've only done it once with Magnemite. They could make it, but I dont think it would work.

And the Void typing mentioned is definitely the best one here, as it has some reference to the game, and it could fit into a plotline, like in a new region a void opened up and out came the new Pokes. I guess virtual it could be like a bunch of new Pokes got made, but I think Game Freak is going to try to keep out of the whole genetic modification game, although Mewtwo and Porygon were genetically created, so maybe Im wrong.

Virtual and Light types are probably the obvious choice and they've been mentioned plenty of times in this thread so there's nothing I can add that hasn't already been said.

Wood, Plastic etc are types I really couldn't see working. Something like Gas/Shadow/Smoke or something along those lines would be a more practical option but are probably a bit too similar to Ghost/Dark types.

I'd like to see them actually make Legendary into an official type.

Legendary being a type would SUCK. All the legends who are crruently two types would have to be one, the legendary birds would have to be Fire-Legendary, not flying. Which could have benefits, but they would have lost a typing from the beginning, which is their defining characteristic.

no... not at all

an exoskeleton type would include pokemon such as arthropods, crustaceans, arachnids and other pokemon with EXOSKELETONS

and all of these pokemon would technically be INVERTEBRATE

as you can see, i included cubone, marowak, houndour, and houndoom as possible candidates, because they have bones OUTSIDE their bodies (outer skeletons)

... just wanted to clear up the misunderstanding as an exoskeleton type is FAR from what i intended to propose

although i guess my skull type would be better off as a secondary type (like flying) than a solo type (unless you want zombie pokeymans)
Oh my mistake, I interpreted the post wrong.

Here is the Pokedex data (sorry but I disn't make a picture):

WOBBUGAIN
All type Pokemon
#??????????????

WOBBUGAIN is the strongest Pokemon
in the world. It hd 9 tails which can
make WOBBUGAIN fly up in the sky.
WOBBUGAIN is also a leaf type Pokemon,
It GAINS the life of other Pokemons.
It also breath FLAMETHROWER!
Sometimes WOBBUGAIN can use Hydro
Pump by its nose.

WOBBUGAIN can use normal type attacks also! And also can use Thundershock but many call it
WOBBUSHOCK ATTACK!

That is an evolution form of Wobbuffet!

For people who say 'mystic' or 'magic' type, I'd assume that Psychic-type is pretty much that. So there goes that idea. Maybe something that deals with air? But, then again, they have Flying-types. . Maybe make a Shadow-type to correspond with the Shadow moves in Pokémon XD, et cetera? But that would be like Dark-types, possibly. . I'd still have to go with Shadow-types. Super effective against Dark-types and weak to Psychic-types.

Light-types has been said way too much, in my opinion. XD

Light Type is a type that I came up with a few years ago, I've always thought about it. I think that both Dark types and Light types should be super effective against eachother.

If there were a light type, it would have to be 'not very effective' against Ghost types at least; otherwise Sableye and Spiritomb would then have weaknesses.

Mine would be very special.

A type that is weak to all types. But once it gets hit by a attack move of any type, it turns INTO that type. Then can bypass the 4 move limit and use any move of that type.

i'd say light, but dark isn't truly "evil", they fight with dirty tricks, but not truely evil
and dark is weak to fighting, fighting types fight with honor, but... they would also make so much sense when it comes to a new type. i see pokemon as espeon being light. since its opposite of the moonlight pokemon: umbreon

light pokemon could use attacks such as: purity, heal, light beam, angel beam etc
specializing in healing attacks, and more ''holy'' attacks,

they could be strong against ghost and dark, and poison, weak against fighting, and grass, and immune to poison (due to them being healers)

we need something for Normal to be super effective against too >.>
Maybe Virtual

Weak against Normal and Fight, Strong against Electric (absorbs electric energy to power itself), and immune to...uhmm maybe ghost >3>?

Light having religious moves/abilities is a no go. Nintendo got crap because Jynx had black skin, do you really think that them based a type with religious undertones is a good idea?

not religous

but more "pure" in a sense. instead of attacks like taunt and torment on dark

i could see these light as being healers fighting fair. i could also see sing as a basic attack they can learn

obviously tho the appearance of light types would look more angelic in a way. white colors, nicer, light pure colors. which might explain why there is no light type and instead the dark are weak against the honorable fighters, light could easily be misinterpretted as holy o3o

keep in mind these are only ideas for fun, and they dont have to be taken seriously o3o

@PokeMoon

ROFL do i have to mention how much that reminds me of Neopets "Jelly" xDDD;;

They could be weak against normal
watch the munchlax nomnomnom it 8O

in that case i want a Peanut Butter type ;O;/hit lol

---------

Rainbow type:
end of story
Arceus could be rainbow type
Kecleon could be rainbow

a type of all types, a type that can become anytype

plus rainbows are purtyful :D

I know alot about the difference between magic, psychic, and spiritual power. I practice psychic abilities using chi, which is a spiritual resource, and there is defenitely a difference between chi and "psychic power". Chi can be absorbed from the surrounding elements, as it is like the invisible substance that gives all matter it's programming, it is also perhaps what our spirits are made out of, except our spirits are more complex in form, that is why we are able to control it and concentrate it to control the elements. Psychic power is a completely different thing altogether, and is controlled by our minds. Magic, I dont practice using, as I feel it to be evil power.

The only type I can think of would probably be light. (Like almost everyone else -_-)
I would have it weak to dark and super effective against dark. However, I don't see why light would be super effective against ghost. Grass types would be immune to it, as would fire types. It would most likely be immune to poison. I'd sorta think of it as a neutral type, like normal.

Dinosaur type weakness ice and fire strong aginst grass and electric or something i dont know the weaknesses and non weaknesses all i know is that Dinosaur type pokemon would pawn
Actually, I could go for this instead of making them all Rock-type :|

Weaknesses: Fire, Ice, Water, Ground
Resistances: Grass, Dragon
Strengths: Normal, Fighting, Flying
Resisted By: Steel, Dragon, Fire, Ground
Immunities: None

Move basis
-- Powerful attacks that have some sort of recoil, like Head Smash, Hyper Beam, etc.
-- Resistance-boosting moves.
-- Priority move (for Rampy <3)
-- Moves that flinch.

^ sort of like Normal-type so far.

Hrm... another type of Pokemon. That's pretty difficult considering Nintendo has already covered a really broad range. The only ones that seem probably at all are virus and light. Porygon would definitely need to be switched to virus and light would be a contrast to dark obviously. Nothing really else that could be said as again, Nintendo pretty much has it all covered.
