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.
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.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 :)
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.
Am I the only one who would like a Fire and Dark type?
