There are dozens upon dozens of new type combos they could add, which would add more strategy to the game. I am hoping it is not like the previous generations where they just added more of the same type combos over and over.

I would like that at some point in time there were at least 4 fully evolved pokemon with the same type combos. That way the meta game is more based on stats and moves than it is typing.

I am hoping for a Fire/Grass and a Fire/Water type. I also want a Grass/Steel. It seems like they added mostly steel last gen.

I am tired of Fire/Fighting starters. It is really angering me, and if Pokabu turns out to do that again I will be enraged.

Which type combos do you want to see? Which type combos are you tired of?

Fire/ghost and bug/dark came up when I was talking to my buddy earlier today for sheer creativity of concept. I'd also like to see a bulky Ice/Rock...it could be a good support pokemon in both Hail teams and Sandstorm teams. :D

Fire/Water would be the one I'd like to see the most, but I'd be intrigued by a non-legendary Electric/Flying. Electric is by far my favorite type.

Electric/Fire/Ice Pokémon

Zapmolticuno.

Moves:
Zap Cannon
Blizzard
Fire Blast
Tri-Attack

Just to be clear, this is something I don't want to see, along with any triple-typing.

I think a Dragon/Fire type, since dragons do infact breathe fire (most of the time) and there are none. Psychic/Ghost type? That would be interesting....

Bug/Dark sounds interesting.
Poison/Dark
Ice/Rock is cool too.
Dark/Fire - Jack-O-Lanturn type pokemon.
I think Bug should really range out, and Poison too. Mainly hoping to see the new Poison Pokes! So Poison with anythind :D Poison/Fire is something i always thought of.

More Electric/Flying. Only one I can think of is Zapdos, and I refuse to use him because he's a legendary.

Others would be the following:
Ice/Rock
Ghost/Psychic
Bug/Fire
Water/Fire
Grass/Electric
Etc etc. There are many type combos that they have yet to do, and I do hope that they'll show at least some new ones in this new generation.

They already have Poison/Dark with Drapion, and Fire/Dark is Houndour/doom.
I would love to see weird types like Fire/Water or Fire/Grass where one is super effective on the other. Psychic/Dark, Ground/Electric, etc.

...most of those already exist. :P
rock/flying = Aerodactyl
water/flying = Gyarados, Mantine, Wingull, Pelipper, and Mantyke
dark/flying = Murkrow and Honchkrow
ice/ghost = Froslass
ice/dark = Sneasel and Weavile
fire/rock = Magcargo
steel/psychic = Beldum, Metang, Metagross, Bronzor, and Bronzong

Although, I wouldn't be opposed to poison/fire (a cigarette pokemon? :o) or and electric/ground...

also, poison/steak...salmonella pokemon? XD

i think a cool type combo would be dragon/fire, which makes sense. *cough Charizard* dragons breathe fire.

or maybe a grass/ghost. like dead plants haha

but an ice/rock poke would be just downright filthy. immune to hail and sandstorm. it would be even more OU'd than garchomp or B-punch scizor

actually what i want to see (but will never happen) is for some pokemon have their types tweaked a bit, like magnemite in gen II. Dragon/water gyarados FTW

Dark/Fighting pokemon would be cool, and very likely.

Fire/Electric. :3;

Best type combo. I have my reasons.

Also opposing type combos are very unlikely.

Yeah you're probably right, its black likely meaning dark type, and it has a ponytail likely meaning fighting type.
*hi-five bro.*

EDIT: also a grass/water type, like venustoise, or a seaweed pokemon haha

Zoroark looks Like a Dark/Fire to me :? And they already said he'd be just dark

I'd like to see a Normal/Water or Normal/Ghost. Wacky.

I want to see the starter pig become a Fire/Fire type. It would be 4x weak against water/ground/rock but 4x resistant to many things as well!

Well, it would be nice to have a pseudo-legendary dragon that isn't 4x weak against Ice for once

Yea, like a Dragon/Fire-Type, which is and obvious Type Combo... At least one would think... There is no Dragon/Fire-Type (Charizard is a s close as it gets.)
Whilst still speaking of the Dragon-Type, I'd like to see:
-Grass/Dragon
-Electric/Dragon

Other desire Pokemon Type Combos:
-Grass/Ghost (Spiritual Manifestation of Nature? Ent-Like?)
-Grass/Fire (Idk...)
-Fire/Ghost (Soul Flame)

I've always wanted to see a Fire/Grass type (it'd be a sort of burning bush, in my mind. Which then evolves into a tree, where half of it is charred and just branches, whereas the other half is all leafy and green.).

A fire/ Dragon would be cool, and another Steel/Dragon that actually LOOKS like a dragon...not a retarded dog/giraffe like Dialga.

Though, all of those typings would be overpowered due to having hardly any if any weaknesses.

Bug/Fire is one that I'm surprised hasn't happened, Just make it a firefly, with it's butt actually being aflame.

Rock/Ice I would like, too.

An Ice Dragon would be pretty nifty too.

Water/fighting
Water/psychic
Grass/fighting
Grass/electric (do we already have this?)
Fire/Steel
Fire/Rock or Fire/Ground
Fire/Psychic & Fire/Dark

To me pokabu looks like it will turn into a part psychic type in its later evos. If not psychic then I think dark. Actually, a psychic/dark/fighting combo would work well with the new starters, no?

noob! The mighty Bidoof is already normal/water
lol how would that work? a fire/fire type that seems impossible.

and yeah bidoof is water/normal but a lame duck as well. We need an awesome water/normal type. Just like how lanturn gave water/electric types a good name.
