In the first generation they added a total of 12 fire types out of 151 pokemon.
In the second generation they added a total of 10 fire types out of 100 new pokemon.
In the third generation they added a total of 6 fire types out of 135 new pokemon.
In the fourth generation they added a total of 5 fire types out of 107 new pokemon.

Do you think Nintendo/Game Freak needs to change this!?

Agreed. Also alot less ussless bug grass normal and flying.
"Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business.
Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git.
Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a Professor.
Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball.

its kinda funny like in G3-4 they were so focused on fighting types and such.. I mean the whole type needed a tremendous amount of help, but it seemed like a bit of overkill..

Back on topic though, I don't mind having one or two new fire types.. as long as they're actually good. DP gave you Ponyta if you didn't have Chimchar already (who was really more fightery than fiery imho) .. and Ponyta isn't exactly the best fire type in the world. Never seem to have trouble finding a good grass or water type to use, but fire seems to be an issue.

it was pretty sad in D/P that unless you chose chimchar, you only could catch 1 fire type. :/

gen 5 needs more fire types obviously, and maybe a funky new dual type like heatran: fire/electric or fire/dragon, etc

pretty much anything new would be nice, except for a billion new bug/flying or water types

I think that's the only reason why Heatran is tolerated, as even though it has virtually no back-story as far as Legendary Pokémon go, it's a direly needed addition the the fire type line. Even though it's ugly and looks like something you'd find in a public bathroom, it's by far one of the best fire types in the game, trumping even Ho-oh (See Stealth Rock weakness) in certain ways.

There really should be more fire types, but what do they have to draw from, other then the obvious fire/dragon?

A Fire/Steel or Fire/Water Steam-Machine Pokemon would be awesome to see. A Burning Ghost (Fire/Ghost), a Firefly (Fire/Bug). Can't think of any more. As they basically just go back to classic dragons. : P

dead man is typiclly right..those will be the best options to take..i don't want legendaries to take the only multi types in the game..there are other multiTypes there but not as great as legendaries..fire seems to be a lil overgrown by other types..making useless types and repeating them over and over again..like bug/flying normal/flying blah blah blah..

I agree that more fire types should be added. Maybe they can add a flaming cow! I can then nickname it Beef. Or it could be fire/ground and I can name it Ground Beef. XD

If I choose the fire pig due to lack of good fire types that I haven't already used, I'm going to name it Porky or Ham. They should make some new fire types based on animals that people cook and eat. They already have the flaming chicken, flaming pig, flaming horse. Why not a fire type that resembles a cow? I like the idea of a fire/ghost type. Maybe the fiery cow can be a fire/ghost type Pokemon.

I always thought Camerupt looked more like a cow despite its name suggesting it as a camel...and it's ground-type. :P

We should have a fire rhino we have no rhino other than the Rhyhorn family so we could use a new one and it should be fire. We should also have a fire gorilla that is Fire/dark or fire/ground actually fits better. We could also use a fire/grass, we already have Water/grass so why not a plant that blooms when covered in magma... they really exist!

Some types are rare, some types are not. Dragon, Ghost, and Ice happen to be rarer along with Fire, and things like Water and Grass are more common. Pokémon just plays out that way. n_n
I agree, I like rare things in general, and there shouldn't be a ton of something special like dragon or fire.
