As I'm well aware that they probably won't make a new type, it's always fun to think about. Let's say, if they did, which kinds would you hope to see?

Light, Star. Maybe even Earth (making fun of the whole rock, ground, steel thing.)

P.S, Jimmy, you need to get back in the shop and help me.

???...I only have two...

1. Light = This would go well into the pokemon series...having it weakened by dark but also able to weaken it & it will have simularities to the dark type otherwise...& a resistence to lightning & fire...

2. Lava = This might work but maybe not...It can be a type to give to fire pokemon who shouldn't be weakened by the water type (magmar, etc...) so it will obviously be resistant to water attacks, grass attacks, maybe even steel type attacks...etc...

That's all I got...

i think ???, light, and cosmic (or some other sort of other-worldly type) would be fun if they were added.

The cosmic idea could be pretty interesting. It would give Clefairy and Clefable more flexibility with type advantages, as I'd also imagine with other 'Moon Stone' evolved pokemon such as Jigglypuff and possibly the Nidos (not too likely for them though already Poison/Ground). It was also give better meaning to the attacks like Cosmic Power or Gravity.

I don't like the idea of lava, because it would be like the whole Ground/Rock Fiasco. Too similar. I also think they should elaborate on the whole ??? thing. Maybe even make a ??? type pokemon.

lol...well yeah, I said it might not work...& it could for some pokemon just replace their Rock or Ground Typing...but no, it most likely won't work...

Well while that's nice & all, what do you think will be some of it's Resistances/Weaknesses...this is my only con with this...

It should be able to deal effective damage to psychic, since noise can disrupt their meditations. It is powerful against Ice because it can shatter ice and even cause avalanche with loud sounds. Bugs need to be weak against this, as their communication could be interfered as well.

As for types that would resist sound, I don't know actually. Perhaps Ghost and Dark, and possibly steel? Although on second thoughts, steel already have a lot of strengths. Perhaps it should be weak against sound (internal resonance frequency anyone?).

I don't think I mentioned anything about rocks relative to sound type. Or were you suggesting they be immune to sound?

I think sound would be a great idea. Maybe Ground and/or Rock types could resist it. seeing as it is hard to hear throught ground.

Also light would be a good idea.
Supereffective: Ghost (never seen a ghost movies in sunlight) Grass (intense light kills plants??) Ice maybe (light melts ice)
Weakness: Dark (light could be supereffective against or weak to??), Steel (light shines on steel, steel reflects light back)
Resistances: Electric, Fire, Grass, Ghost

I'd much rather Gamefreak fix the current type chart, which is so horribly unbalanced, than for them to introduce new types to make it even worse. Seriously, I don't know how they can make types as broken as Steel and as nerfed as Poison and Grass and think they're doing a good job in having a "balanced" system.

Well actually, the denser the medium, the better the travel of sound, so steel should be really weak against sound.

About balance, they need to reduce steel resistance and increase grass and poison effectiveness. Seriously.

Poison should be good against Normal, Bug, and Fighting. Also, the attack Acid should not only be able to affect steel types, it should be 100% crits.
Also, Steel doesn't need a bunch of resistances, it just needs high defense.
As for Grass, If you really want to press the issue, they could make it super-effective against electric, since it already has a resistance to it. Or another way to help the Grass types would be to give them more useful abilities. However, I think that when using Grass types, all you need is mega-drain, and if possible, giga-drain. However, back to the topic of new types, Light would be good. It would be super effective against Dark, Ghost, and Psychic, but Dark would be super effective against it. It could also be super-effective or have resistances to Fighting, Poison, or Steel, while being weak to... Grass, Ice, Flying and Bug. Sorry for not explaining my reasoning; I'm hoping that you guys can guess on most of it. And I don't think that Sound should be a separate type; Normal has that covered. A Disease type could be made, but that could just as easily fit into Poison.
Oh, and one more thing... Water and Electric should be super-effective against Steel!

So light and dark would be super effective against each other like dragon VS. dragon?

well that would be interesting Ryder, they are exact opposites but you can't have one without the other so would they be extremely similar or infinately different? could they learn each others attacks? I suppose light would have an unmatchable speed so if it were super effective agains dark would a dark type pokemon stand a chance? i wouldn't count on it.

Maybe they didn't make light along with dark for that same reason, light would easily be the most powerful type.

Exactly...except Ice wouldn't be weakened by it...I say this cause again, Ice doesn't fair much competition Type Chart wise & this would be too much...I see your point though...

Hey, no Electric shouldn't be super effective against Steel...there is no logic behind this being the reason I say this...plus, electric only has one weakness & a decent amount of resistances including Steel so...please no...

Yes!!!!...cause of the logic of Light VS Dark & Good VS Evil & they can disperse each other...so definetely...

& finally to this...Yes Dark would cause they would make the Light Type based off of something like "The Speed of Light"...& Darkness moves just as fast anyway so...Oh & yes I was actually thinking that the Light & Dark Type would be simular as a type & that they would be able to learn most attacks of the other type...I mean they are 2 sides of the same coin so light would not be the most powerful type...Kingdra would be...lol, no but Dragon & Steel more so would be the Strongest Types...still...

then we remove the effectiveness on ice.

About the type light, I really just think it is overrated and boring. Besides, haven't the psychics already covered light? Dark isn't really mean evil, it's just playing dirty, or against the rules. And what kinds of pokemon would you give it? angel based? fairy based?

I agree about it being overrated and possibly boring, but you seem to be under the impression that Light would be essentially the same thing as Good, or Heroic... This would not necessarily be so. The only reason I think Light might be a good addition is because if there is Dark, there might as well be Light. And as for what the pokemon for the Light-type might be like, an angel one is very likely, but God forbid a fairy one. Clefairy at least doesn't look much like a fairy, but you can imagine that the fairy one would probably look almost exactly like Tinkerbell. Also, Light-type pokemon would not need to be focused entirely on morality and higher-power, they could represent color or literally, light. For better or for worse, a Light-type pokemon could be thought up. Oh, and btw, if Light became a type, then Blind would have to be a new status condition for Light, Dark, and Ground type moves.

Mirror Coat
Reflect
Light Screen
Magic Coat
Barrier
Luster Purge

All light-based moves. All Psychic-type moves. Psychic-type is the closest we're getting to a Light-type.

Ground??

I'm thinking it might drastically change accuracy. So that the afflicted Pokémon would have its base Acc reduced somewhere around 10%. Blind Pokémon should also be able to recover from said status.



Anywho, I DO think that there should be some sort of Space/Cosmic type to counteract the somewhat-overpowered Dragon type. Whose weakness count remains at a steady.........2. AND it should FINALLY give the underrated Normal type its well-deserved strength somehow. Light could also possibly be weak to Normal. Although, this, however, counteracts the type's status as being... well... NORMAL. But if the type was originally (according to common sense) designed to be neuter, it should have neither strengths nor weaknesses *cough* Fighting *cough*. Puzzling....

Maybe pokemon that are Energy based. Seeing as light is a type of energy. But that is kinda similar to electirc.
I have to agree with Frost, we have enough types. they should just be fixed a little.
