    I'm thinking of doing a rom hack for FRLG and RSE. And one thing I want to do is add Pokemon for newer generations and give some regional forms.

    For example for Kanto I want to add Torkoal and give it a Kanto form and making it Fire-Wtr.

    Other examples
    Roggenrola line - Rock/Fire, special attacker but low defenses
    The Unova Monkey trio - making them FTG, DARK and PSY.
    Numel line - WTR-GRD

    For Hoenn
    Grimer and Koffing lines - making them PSN-FIRE.

    I want to make sure there are enough Pokemon of any type to make a full team of six.

    So any thoughts or ideas?
     
    Ideas for the Kantonian forms, should make for a full team of 6 for every type in Kanto:

    ( I added possible relevant wild locations/trainers that could use them)


    Kricketune line - dark/bug - (Viridian Forest)

    Linoone line - dark/electric - (Power Plant)

    Xatu line - dark/ghost - (Will rematch)

    Bronzong line- dark/rock - (cerulean cave)

    ledian line - Dragon/bug - (Viridian Forest)

    Avalugg - Dragon/normal - (Victory Road)

    Salazzle line - ghost/electric - (Agatha rematch)

    Jellicent line - ghost/ice - (Lorelei rematch)

    Duraludon - Ice/dragon - (Blue rematch)

    Komala - Normal/Ghost - (Celadon Game Corner)

    Absol - normal/steel - (Mt. Moon)

    Crustle line - rock/ghost - (Rock Tunnel)

    Krookodile line - steel/dragon - (Lance rematch)

    Falinks- steel/fire - (Koga rematch)

    houndoom line - steel/poison - (Karen rematch)

    Chimecho line- water/steel - (Seafoam Islands)

    Girafarig: Fairy-Dark
    Stantler: Psychic, or Psychic-Flying maybe.
    Exploud: Steel
    Seviper: Dragon-Dark
    Kecleon: Ghost, or Ghost-Normal
    Combee: Bug > Vespiquen: Bug-Dark
    Probopass: Rock-Grass, or even Electric-Grass
    Skorupi: Steel > Drapion: Steel-Dragon
    Sewaddle/Swadloon: Fairy-Bug > Leavanny: Fairy-Fighting
    Klingklang: Ghost-Electric
    Scrafty: Dragon (Because for some reason this thing is in the Dragon egg group)
    Trevenant: Rock-Ghost
    Gourgeist: Grass-Fire
    Dhelmise: Steel-Water

    Tried to prioritize Ghost, Steel, Dark, and Dragon because the Gen 1 Dex is really lacking in those types, unless you also include Alolan/Galarian forms or bring Pokémon from other gens besides the fan-made regional variants.
