    If you could make a new dual type Pokemon, what would its type be and what would it look like? Or if you could retype a Pokemon that already exists, who'd it be and what type would change?

    I'd make a Dark/Electric type Pokemon, that'd look like an ice cube with claws and a mask (like the one Frozone has. No ice pun intended)
     
    I always thought a Dark/Fairy type would be an excellent combination. Fairy is the stereotypical 'good' and 'pure' type whereas Dark is the opposite, 'evil' and such. A Pokemon with these two types would have to be based on such an interesting duality; perhaps a Pokemon with both an evil and a good side, or something fallen angel-like. Or perhaps Absol could even be retyped to this. Alolan Absol anyone?
    yes i know they're only retyping Gen I Pokemon but a man can dream
     
    I've no ideas for the Pokemon themselves, but I wouldn't mind Ghost/Electric or Bug/Fire Pokemon.

    In the case of existing Pokemon, I'd also like for Luxray to have an Electric/Dark typing. I went for quite awhile thinking that was its type, and was pretty disappointed to discover it wasn't. :c
    And remove the Normal typing from some Flying types/bird Pokemon.

    Rotom is Ghost/Electric and Volcarona is Bug/Fire
     
    I definitely second that removing normal type from some of the flying types. It's so unnecessary sometimes. Like, I get that it's there /mainly/ for ones that resemble real life birds, but there are..what..ONE pure flying type Pokemon? It's just kind of excessive to tack 'Normal' onto any bird they make IMO.

    ANYWAYS I really want a Ghost/Bug that's more versatile than just Shedinja. Or a Ghost/Fairy cause damn how cool would that be. (Yeah, I know Mimikyu is gonna be Ghost/Fairy. I just don't see it being super powerful, although who knows.) After making my ghost monotype team I realized there's not a whole lot of options for countering that Dark type weakness and it gets pretty annoying. Also another Steel/Water and another Ice/Psychic would be nice.
