This isn't intended to be a competitive battling thread, so I post it here.
What are the types your team couldn't do without in each generation of Pokémon?
I remember a Nintendo magazine here in my country claimed back in 1999 that the "main types" of the game were Grass, Fire, Water, Ground, Flying and Psychic, which is what Blue's team in RBY had. I usually built my team according to those types. However, we all know Normal types were very strong in RBY.
Now, though, it seems to me that there are a few types that gained relevance and surpassed other types. It seems to me that a team must have, in one capacity or another, a Fighting, a Flying and a Ground-type, and the rest are less important and can be picked either way.
What are the types you can't do without, and why? Post whatever gen you want.
