Johnbobb 11/30/20 12:15:07 AM #1:	I always thought there was potential for an "Artificial" type (though I think it'd more likely be called TOY type or maybe PLASTIC type) something for manmade-looking things that aren't steel type, like the Porygon line, Garbador and Stufful/Bewear New pokemon would likely be based on things like action figures, plushes, playdoh, and various other toys --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs <cite>Johnbobb posted [p:947752643] in If they we...

Hbthebattle 11/30/20 1:58:58 AM #8:	Great_Paul posted... I know I've seen people discuss Sound as a type. Sound is pretty much encapsulated as a move property, and pure Sound attacks basically form the entirety of Special Normal moves. Plus, a lot of Sound-based Pokemon like Noivern or Toxtricity already have two types that aren't Normal. Cyber/Artificial/Etc. makes way more sense, though, Porygon not being an electric type has always been odd --- Congrats to azuarc for winning the GotD Guru! <cite>Hbthebattle posted [p:947754501] in If they we...

andylt 11/30/20 8:08:25 AM #16:	Sound is already kind of a pseudotype, with all sound moves having the same unique properties and being affected by the same abilities/moves/items. Given how many sound moves and pokemon there already are, that would be the most likely new one imo. Aside from that, idk. Between Fairy and Psychic you already have Light covered so I guess Mech/Digital would make the most sense, but you'd have to carve out a niche between Electric and Steel for that. Maybe Space or Void or something. --- Congrats to azuarc, Guru Champion 2020! <cite>andylt posted [p:947759169] in If they we...

Johnbobb 11/30/20 11:04:29 AM #26:	Tom Bombadil posted... I've always kinda thought of Psychic as "Light" to an extent, although Fairy probably fits that better now. I think Umbreon/Espeon kinda confirmed that too with Psychic, given that Espeon was just the day version to Umbreon's night Tom Bombadil posted... I do like the Construct/Artificial/Manmade/Digital/Mech idea though Yeah, I do think they could all fit into one, that's why I suggested TOY type; that just seems like a kinda all-encompassing thing. Mechs could be like Toy/Steel, Clay things could be Toy/Ground, etc. I worry about like Cyber/Digital because like what was mentioned earlier, that's already very similar to electric Kingfrost posted... Light Type Null Type Gravity Type Wind Type Time Type I would support a Wind type being separate from Flying type. They'd have to change a lot of moves (mostly making new ones for Flying because many of the current Flying moves are wind types Time and Gravity are both neat.
