5th Gen Game Freak needs to make Fire types!

I agree. But how about Ghost and Dark types. =\ not alot of them either... Ghost Pokemon only have 18.
 
But only 15 fire types are neither starters nor legendaries.
 
Yes I agree. I haven't been pleased with the fire types since generation III when Blaziken was the only one I found to be decent. I think it's rather sad too since when I was first introduced into Pokemon I immediately fell in love with the fire types. They were my absolute favorite and I remember I used to play Yellow and GSC with a whole army of fire Pokemon and nothing else. Now with the lack of good fire types and fire Pokemon in general I've moved on and pretty much pushed fire Pokemon out of my top five favorites. ;_;
 
I don't like Fire Types. Too over-rated. I do however, want NO NEW Water Types in this Generation. On topic, I'd liek at least 5 new unique Fire Type Families and may 2 unevolvable ones :)
 
I like this. That's exactly what I was thinking while reading this topic. Of course there are more water-types because water's more abundant in the world, and there are more species to base Pokemon on. Like all those various kinds of fish and mythological creatures.

That said, Fire has always been my favorite type, and I would like more choices when it comes to decided which Fire-type I'll raise for my team. Creativity would be needed to think of something new. For example, the Fire/Ghost could maybe be a whisp of smoke or something like that.

Me too. It Just makes sense
 
Fire types and Dark types.
GO Team Magma !
 
Really. I hated how there were barely any fire types introduced in the last region... and other than Magmortar, I can't think of a non Starter/Legendary Pokemon. (Someone refresh my memory) I hope we get at least 3 separate families with Fire typing, and one being Fire/Poison.

Agreed, well with more water types cuz I just love 'em so much :D. 5 new unique fire type families would be nice, but probably won't happen. I say we should get 2 new fire type families, and 2 new unevolvable ones, and maybe a pre-evo or evo for Torkoal. Other than that why not make some old fire starters attainable in the game? Like you would have to catch them in a specific location at a certain time of day and have a certain amount of time to run into one (just so the starters aren't too easily obtainable), or maybe you're given one.
 
Adding more fire types would be great, fire types are one of my favorite types. I hope they add more in this new gen.
 
Definitely need more Fire types. And good ones, too.
I love fire type pokemon and the only ones I really think are worth using are
Charizard(+previous evolutions), Typhlosion, Magcargo.
 
I honestly would encourage the creation of any fire types. They're really lacking as of yet.
 
I like the way they have the game balanced as of right now. I could see them adding a few extra fires, but I wouldn't want that percentage to raise dramatically.
 
Was there even one that wasn't a starter, baby, new evo or legendary in gen 4?
There needs to be a lot more in the 5th gen.
 
Yeah! Fire-type rule! :D :t257:

But we really do need a bit more of them. I understand that "70% of the Earth is water" argument for the excessive abundance of Water-type, but... incorporating the Big Bang theory, everything sprouted from a mixture of fire, light, gases, elements, and epicness... So really, Fire-types are getting majorly underrepresented, I say! ;)

Here are two Fire-type concepts I posted in another thread that I'd like to see (and I think the second one was even created to represent Pokemon White Version as a Fire-type legendary of the sun...)

Seventy percent of the earths surface is water, but beneath all of that is nothing but molten iron, nickel and other metals. 99%+ of the earths mass is composed of really hot metal stuff. Fire especially got shafted last time. Did we really need a fire/fighting starter two generations in a row? Hopefully some nice fire types will rise about.

A fire/fighting starter would be 3 gens in a row since blaziken is fire/fighting too. I honestly think that Pokabu should be a pyrokenetic (fire/psychic). That would be cool! I can't imagine it actually having fire spout out of its body anywhere so that will work.

I can understand how not having many fire types is annoying, but at the same time remember they're strong pokemon (usually) thus they remain in fewer numbers. I'd like a few new families and maybe an evo of an old fire pkmn in b&w but I don't expect there to be too many new fire types. It just won't happen.
 
Am I the only one who would like a Fire and Dark type?

Well, there's already Houndour and Houndoom, but it is a logical type combination for Fire. Personally I would rather see some more exotic combos, like Fire/Grass, Fire/Water, or Fire/Dragon.
