in order
Electric, Psychic, Water, Flying, Ghost
with this logic, Ampharos should be my top 1, but it's only 4th in my all time faves. funny how that works.

Generally speaking: Ghost, Dark, Fire, Grass, and Flying.
But there are exceptions.

Ice and Normal definitely, then maybe Bug since a few of my favorite Pokémon are Bug-type and I enjoy looking for insects IRL. Water-types (at least the ones that make sense on land) have also appealed to me for a long time. It's a close call between Fire and Psychic for fifth place, but Fire wins out slightly in terms of number of Pokémon I like of that type.

Hmm this is a tough one and mine will also be in order and I'll do my top five for each type in order as well.
1) Flying: Gyarados, Dragonite, Pidgeot, Rayquaza, Talonflame
2) Dragon: Garchomp, Dragonite, Rayquaza, Tyrantrum, Appletun
3) Dark: Grimmsnarl, Tyranitar, Umbreon, Obstagoon, Crawdaunt
4) Water: Gyarados, Kyogre, Milotic, Toxapex, Crawdaunt
5) Fire: Blaziken, Talonflame, Charizard, Rotom-Heat, Centiskorch
Kind of cool we don't share any types, all types seem well represented!

1. Water. Always has been my favorite since I watched a Percy Jackson movie and saw Blastoise.
2. Ice. It's frozen water and one shots a lot of Pokémon. How I'm I not gonna like Ice?
3. Fighting. All the names of the Pokémon and moves are so cool!
4. Electric. Always has been fascinated with electricity.
5. Flying. Basically the same reason as Fighting.

Water, Electric, Dragon, Grass, Fairy.
The last 3 tend to change but the first two are always Water and Electric. Water is insanely good for having only two weaknesses with one of them being easy to counter, is usually my first choice for a starter, the water starter's final form is usually the best designed or if not least bad of the three, and it's just extremely good overall. Electric also because it's really good, and a lot of it's creatures have good designs.
As for the other three, Dragon for obvious reasons, I know some people would be turned off by Grass for it's many weaknesses, but a lot of the Grass creatures are usually really strong or fast to make up for it, and the ones that aren't are really just only a minority. I also think Grass bar none is the type with the BEST moves. My favourite move is a Grass move and most of my top ten favourite moves are as well. For the last one a Dragon counter is always good and I chose that over Ice because I REALLY wish Ice was slightly better (seriously, just make it resist Normal. It's not called the snow type, hitting Ice with untrained fists would hurt as much as rock or metal. I even constantly think from time to time that Ice resists normal.)

1. Poison. Even though a lot of Poison-type Pokémon are rather unimpressive, I think Poison fits my aesthetic. Maybe it's that it's normally associated with purple.
2. Electric. Electric's a pretty cool type. I'm a fan of bright colors, which a lot of Electric-type Pokémon have. I'm also a fan of sharp angles.
3. Ice. It sucks as a defensive type, but I really like Ice, and being a great offensive type isn't that bad a deal. It also a bunch of neat Pokémon, even if most of them are white and/or blue.
4. Ghost. Ghost strikes me as the most gimmicky of the 18 types, and that's what makes me like it so much.
5. Dragon. I'm quite a fan of lizard-like creatures.
