#Pokemon
Grass/Fire = Scovillian
Steel/Poison = Revavroom
Electric/Fighting = Pawmot and Iron Hands
Bug/Dark = Lokix
Poison/Normal = Grafaiai
Ground/Fighting = Great Tusk
Fairy/Fighting = Iron Valiant
We got 7 out of the 16 unused type combinations in Scarlett and Violet, and there are still 9 missing, so I think we may need to wait until Gen 11th to have them all.
I’d like it to complete in gen 12 because 12 is my favorite number
And for normal poison there’s also shroodle
@@pukenmg284 5 is mine but my fav gen is still gen 8
Why not gen 10
This should be pinned ngl
Also they are ,like you said, probably gonna finish by 11
I'd like to see a ground/fairy gnome. Gnomes are, traditionally, earth spirits who guard mines.
Gnomes and dwarfs could work very well for this type combo, earth sprits and workers found in celtic folklore (despite not belonging to the iberic peninsula where the games are set on)
Gnomes look so ugly though dhishevd
@@chihiro2151 average gnome hater smh
No gnomes we need a sandshrew and sanslash form
@@alexanderthegrrrreat6727 plzz I'm sorry I just think gnomes are ugly it's a smart idea its just....ugly
I think what the whole “normal” thing’s about, is that it is given to animal Pokémon that naturally exist. Arcanine, although a dog-like creature, was based on a mythological animal in Japanese Culture (I think), hence why it isn’t normal type.
You atheist child.
Oh I actually like that explanation
It’s based on liondogs, which are a pretty big deal in Chinese culture and might’ve been imported to Japan and other east/southeast asian cultures.
@@anonymousfellow8879 Yeah! The Liondog!
I think that most Dual Normal types kind of fall into the category of "These are essentially just normal animals, but like they have a little bit of something else in them that makes them special" Like Sawsbuck, take away his Antlers, it's just a normal deer. Helioptile generates electricity by basking in the sun, which I assume they would need to do a lot since it can't store electricity. If Bibarel didn't live in the water, it would probably also just be normal. Even the bird pokemon, yeah they fly, but like they're just birds in most cases. Like most of the dual Normal types just have an aspect of that other type but aren't fully capable of being that type.
I mean there are some weird ones that don't make sense. Like Pyroar and Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark. Cause Pyroar has fire coming off of itself and has an internal organ that produces fire similar to the surface of the sun, it should just be a fire type. And How is Zoroark a Normal ghost...? what is so normal about it? It's vengeful and aggressive... why isn't it dark/ghost?
I made a fakemon Fire/Grass type for my own region. Its called Furiocitree. It used to be a normal tree, but was set on fire by a forest fire caused by humans. However, it doesn’t use its hatred towards humans for violence. It instead chooses to use its powers to protect other Pokémon from forest fires
Smokey the bear, er, tree Pokémon
@@ChEez650 it’s pre-evolutions are Kindling (Kind-ling) and Irritwig. Some people suspect this pokemon is a relative of Sudowoodo
@@ChEez650 I know you didn’t ask, I just really like the idea😂
Tree approves
I really hope we see grass/fire and poison/steel! Don't care much for dual types with normal
first
The only good Normal dual type is with Ghost. I'm glad we got that eventually.
@s!ty shut up bot
@@jamestravers6665 took a long time though
In the grass fire one the second chart he used grass fairy instead of grass fire for the weakness chart
I feel like for fairy ground, a new form of sandygast would be great, it would look more like a princess castle, and palossand could just be a much larger princess castle with different towers coming off of it.
Pollosand is one of my faves
this is such a good idea i need this to happen
That's. Actually a really good idea.
With pink shells all over it.
Alternatively, how about a garden gnome?
New carbink form or evo
I think the perfect thing to have for Fairy/Ground would be a Pokémon based on The Sandman, the mythical character that puts enemies to sleep and is also represented with sand. I know dreams and sleep is usually depicted as psychic, but this is magic, not hypnosis, therefore fairy
we need this now
It learns sleep powder at level 1
@whatever oliver bro wrote sigh 💀💀💀
@whatever oliver your life is an L
wouldn't that be ground/psychic?
Really wanted nidoking and nidoqueen to get regional variants. Poison/steel and poison/ice could be cool versions. And if you gave one to each it would make them even more different.
Alsi I know that technically mega altaria exists, but you can't use it. So there are no real dragon/fairy types. A regional form for something like dragonite would be awesome, or maybe an alternate 3rd Evo to remain a snake like pokemon.
You sir should be working at gamefreak
Dragonair could evolve into a Quetzalcoatl. That'd be so cool
Which nido would have which type combo?
@@roytard12I think nidoqueen would have poison steel, and nidoking would have poison ice. It fits nidoqueen being more defensive and protective with its children, while the more aggressive nidoking gets ice, the better offensive typing
Porygon-S for Normal/Steel combo. It evolves from Porygon 2 when traded while holding a Metal Coat. "S" could refer to steel, strength, superior as well.
So replace the failure of a game into an s tier instead of porygon 3
Something I would want to see is dual type moves, like a move called “ nature blast” that is Grass and water, or a move called “ fireworks” that is fairy and fire type
@@zai_thehumandewey9920 Like flying press. I second that.
Wasnt that make porygon having 4 evolution?
Which non of the other pokemons have?
@@monsterteamtr6488 well, they did say it be an evolution for Porygon2, not Porygon-Z. So it would just be an alternate evolution like with Gloom and Poliwhirl.
I am super surprised at the lack of bug dark types. Mosquitos, Spiders, etc. A lot of bugs can easily be dark type.
A Black Widow Bug/Dark-type (Only female) would be pretty hype.
Quick question: Was there ever a bug fire pokemon? I mean ever, not just in this game.
How about Wasps?

True @The Chemical Seal
One group: “ Dark describes Dark Magic!”
Second group: “ Dark describes a feeling!”
Third group: “ Dark describes a color!”
MandjTv: “ Dark is Dark!”
I got an awesome screenshot of “Dark is dark”
Mikey: says every lovely word to describe fairy.
Also Mikey: AND THEN DAAUKH IZ DAAUHKH
DAAUKH=dark, ok?
Dark is “Evil” type in Japanese. Really helps explain the typing decisions
dark is definitely personality
For the Poison/Steel type, I tend to imagine a pokemon based on mercury. It's a highly poisonous liquid metal, there could be some cool designs based off that.
Melmetal was so close. :(
@@Robin280497 You know, I totally forgot about it. Yeah, that was so close.
One thing I would point out with a pokemon based off mercury is that it wouldnt be toxic right away. It would have to have an ability that did poison damage over time upon repeated exposure.
@TisYa BoiLmao I was thinking about that too. That would be cool. Perhaps have an ability where as the turns tick by, the chance of getting poisoned by hitting the Pokémon goes up.
Yeah and with Levitate! Maybe that's too far fetched, but atleast Air Balloon would help! 🎈
Ice/Poison and Grass/Fire would be sick. I’m surprised a grass fire isn’t a thing yet.
Should be SUNFLORA, IT'S A SUNFLOWER POKEMON
Ground/fairy: ursaluna
Ground/fighting: hitmotop
Fairy/fighting: azelf & meloetta
Dragon/bug: megayanma
Fighting/eletric: zerora and electrabuzz
What about Posion+Ice = Frozen Methane Pokemon
@@Ichim8 ice/poison should or the New evolution of sneasel or nighelego, the first ultra best pokemon.
Poison/steamy should be nagadragel, the last ultra besat pokemon
Toxiberg, a frozen toxic iceberg. Don’t know what I was doing with this..
Definitely Fire/Grass. Just imagine a mon that can benefit from Harsh Sunlight, Chlorophyll and enhanced Solar Beam (if they give double stab to it, it will be broken too)
Sunflora
@@Itiswhatitismyboa yesss
Reminds me of a ben 10 alien(where he is 15 not the original 10)
Too broken not gonna happen if they do there will always be something that counters it except when it's legendary but regigigas' slow start exists
So ..... *Shrug*
@@killjoy7346 Swampfire?
7:20 I can imagine a regional form of a koffing that lives in a cold environment so it’s frosted over. I can imagine giving it a third evolution that adds another head to make it look like misshapen snowman
1:24 personally I like how the normal type generally comes with powerful moves from other types.
E.G Heliolisk is able to learn surf signal beam dragon pulse and dark pulse.
Normal typing also adds immunity to ghost type attacks. Grumpig is psychic and weak to ghost types, but Girafarig is psychic and normal and therefore immune to them. Ghosts are immune to normal type attacks, but all normal Pokemon can learn a variety of different type moves, in many cases not having any normal moves at all. A normal type that knows a ghost type attack like shadow claw, shadow ball or astonish can damage a ghost type quite effectively while taking almost no damage from it.
@@djhsilver that point was already made and is a major plus for the normal type, but the point I was making is for pokemon who don't have to worry about ghost type attacks as much
@@gerbentime4175 Yes I realized the point was made when I unpaused the video after making the comment and he then made the point. lol
I closed my eyes and imagined a pokemon Ben Shapiro for a good minute 😂
@@jonathansoriano3568 as the early rodent
For Ice/Poison, Ive always wanted a pokemon that represented "having a cold", something kinda like Cubchoo, but where its a pokemon that is sick, and uses its sickness to attack, maybe with an ability that makes Ice Type moves have a chance to poison the enemy
Also for Ground/Fairy, mythologically speaking Gnomes are cratures of the earth, and could be part inspired by dwarves
maybe a regional variant of the Cubchoo line, i like that idea a lot
Similarly with Ground/Fairy, Dwarves could also work since they like to live in the mountains, though since many of the specific ones I can think of also are blacksmiths or use weapons, steel/fairy could also work though we probably don't need any more of those especially after Zacian. I was initially considering ogres working since it'd be like having a scary looking fairy that isn't Grimmsnarl or Granbull, but those things are known to eat people apparently so they'd definitely be dark. Plus Grimmsnarl is kinda already one anyway.
The kanji for ice is 氷, and the kanji for poison is 毒, when put together it means meth. So a hyper florida man with missing teeth would be a good fit.
Given that "gnome" is _the_ earth elemental, that basically makes it the _definition_ of ground/fairy. (Then again, we've had plenty of the fire element and none of those are fairy-type).
When I first heard him say Ice/Poison, I couldn't help but be reminded of a gun the FBI made where the gun fires an dart made of ice but contained in the ice is a poison so the ice dart penetrates the skin barely leaving a mark and the bodies heat melts the ice and releases the poison into the blood stream and mimics a heartattack and causes death. So maybe a pokemon inspired by this with a OHKO move that references the FBI 😅
My thoughts for an ice/poison type was something like an ancient disease that had been preserved in ice to the modern day. It could either start out as a pure ice type, but then gain the poison typing upon evolving, or it could be a “fossil” Pokémon that you revive (maybe call it something like the icy fossil).
I think it should start out as a poison type, because its main characteristic is that it’s a disease.
Also, I think it could make more sense that the evolution could go two ways.
Poison/Fire, so that it turns into a speedy offensive pokemon. Its ability could increase the power of poison moves and make them have the possibility to burn.
or
Poison/Ice, so it becomes a defensive wall. Its ability could increase the chances of poisoning and also increase the effects of poisoning (This would make Toxic OP).
@@angelomendoza6666 So kind of like a fever motif vs a pneuomonia motif? Interesting.
@@Indigo_Polarity yeah wow I haven’t thought of it exacty as fever vs Pneumonia but yeah that’s a nice way of putting it
i'm a bit late, but they still haven't added ice/poison so it counts.... back in 2014 they actually found a kind of virus hidden deep under a layer of permafrost in siberia! it seems to only affect amoebas, but i still thought it was cool.... they could do something like that
Ground/Fighting regional variant of Golurk in a Legends type game for Unova would be awesome showing him in a complete form without the cracks and bandaid looking bits
For fairy/fighting, I could see a high physical attack with a signature move thats like tri-attack but is fairy type, learns the elemental punches, and focuses on status conditions with its ability.
something like Jurgen from fairly odd parents:D
I feel like it could be some kind of Monk pokemon, maybe even a regional variant of Meditite or Mienshao, which is all about Balance and Harmony. It has a signature ability or move which allows it to flip its Attack and Special Attack, making it good at either.
@@JokeCubed this is really plausible due to the attention on gen 5 pokémon rn
I made a fairy/fighting coyote fakémon that has some Aztec-ish inspiration which I really like
I could say more about it but idk how much I want to
The Fire/Grass could be a Pokémon based on a plant called "Burning Bush". It has red leaves and i thought it looked cool and could work quite well for it
It could maybe have a signature move like Razor Leaf but as a Fire type move
That works or even some of the plants that actually sprout due to flames melting off a layer of resin, like Banksia which looks beautiful when in full bloom or Eucalyptus (the stuff koala's eat).
Pheonix pompas
It makes me picture a Tangela, but with red leaves in place of vines. I think any fire/grass type that isn't a tiki would likely need to have a lot of 'disposable foliage' and Tangela seems like the kind of Pokemon that would have a lot of that, since no matter how much you cut, you'll seemingly never get to the critter underneath, so burning its own plant matter wouldn't bother it. :)
Im imagining Sunflora or Cacturne regional form, desert area, its suit the Grass Fire type vibe.
SWAAAMPFIYAAAAH
I feel like a good ground/fighting type would be an alternate Lucario. We know it’s a jackal and losely based on Anubis, so just crank that up a bit and you’re good. Although that could work as a second ghost/fighting type.
What about a Monitor Lizard
@@edgyanole9705 those stay by the water bruv
@ Mecha Tengu. Sure they can swim but many don't spend enough time at the water to do like ever there's over 80 species so if you think they spend all their time at water you would be wrong I promise I've researched this sort of stuff what about the almost 20 species in Australia and even the Nile Monitor(the one I'm guessing you were thinking about) it would still be more ground than water.
A regular dragon/Fairy type (that isn’t mega altaria) would be cool
8:56
Same here, I absolutely love the Grimmsnarl line. We had a 100% male pokemon after three gens since the last one were the Kami trio in Unova. I love Grimmsnarl's typing, lore, inspiration and most importantly its shiny. Grimmsnarl was one of my SwSh team members. As a lover of fire types, I'd really love non-legendary fire-water types, its such a cool type combination and I hope we get a future fire starter which part fairy type, that'd be really awesome.
I think Poison Steel is the most interesting sounding type to me. Especially after seeing the one image. I think that'd be really cool.
th-cam.com/video/v6uH71BdMBA/w-d-xo.html
Make it a flying machine and give it levitate with decent defense and you have a toxic staller
@@josh4fun668 Yes. That would be cool.
I just have Toxic Love playing in my head
@@josh4fun668 yeah I was thinking a quad ground weakness didn’t seem too nice
Normal combined with other types does make a bit of sense even outside the "evolves into normal/something" when it is also tied to Sound. Special moves from the normal type are mostly sound based. This is why Litleo/Pyroar is Fire/Normal, by the way- note that the order of the types actually matter here: Fire is the main type(it is a fire lion), Normal, aka Sound, is what it does. It has a bunch of moves it learns by level up that are based on it roaring- Noble Roar, Echoed Voice and Hyper Voice.
Since they don't seem like they want to add sound as a type(too many other types have sound moves already, maybe), adding normal to mons that use sound makes sense.
The only issue I have with that is that how on Earth is fighting strong against sound? Not that I disagree, it makes sense, it just kind of makes the Sound aspect a little less good of a fit
@@kisukebomb3750 I think they’re saying the normal holds the main sound moves, but its still the normal type
@@bentoboxd2 I' not disagreeing, what I'm saying is that as a placeholder type for sound-based abilities being weak to fighting and having no strengths doesn't make sense in context. As it stands yeah, it's still normal type
I dont understand why they won't add it, the "sound is a normal thing" falls apart since something like lighting a match or throwing sand in somebody's eye is something a random person could do, and. It's also more about the manipulation or amplification of Sound rather than "this normal thing can produce sound", and if that's the case then why is ice type different from water when ice is LITERALLY frozen water, or ground being different from rock.
Sound is a type that will EVENTUALLY be added, my theory is that they are trying to figure out interesting designs that are not just an instrument with arms and legs.
There's other types that could be added like Time or Cosmic anyways
Also in defense of Heliolisk's typing, the Pokedex itself basically describes it as a living Solar Panel Lizard, only being Electric type as well because it gains it's electricity from sunlight.
Michaels point on “no mo elemental Normal types” makes sense until you reconsider the fact that normal is the go-to sound type. Now normal can be a meaningful in these unused type combos. For ex: many bugs are known for their sounds.
Dude if we do a normal,poison type regional croagunk well now thats something I wanna see
How about a graffiti monkey instead?
They could finally give kricketune an evolution
Sound should be a type outright. :v
The normal-steel Pokémon could be some kind of armadillo Pokémon
the Ice-Poison Pokémon could be based on how the Arctic is melting due to climate change
And the poison-steal Pokémon could be based on rusting tools
For ice-poison the first thing I thought of was anthrax in permafrost, so maybe something with that.
nah climate change is a scam. the nuclear power is the real green energy and they don’t want it in the West. however Microsoft was trying to sell fourth gen nuclear tech to china.

5:00 Actually, if they make all the starters overlap with each other's type, it could work. Fuecoco as a pepper could be Fire/Grass. Sprigatito evolving into a cattail could be Grass/Water. And Quaxli evolving from what looks like a navy soldier into a cannoneer could be Water/Fire.
Nah
i had thought about those typings for fuecoco and quaxly but i never considered cattail for grass/water sprigatito! its a bit far fetched imo but it would be very cool ^^
I hope we get this kind of setup for the starters. Each gaining the type that would help with the type its weak against. As much as I love the connection of a ghost pepper, we just got a fire\ghost final evolution for a starter, so would love to see a different typing and fire grass makes sense.
Yea I’m hoping for this too
pirate duck!! this is a fantastic comment
11:34 I'd argue Phanpy could easily fit this bill on it's own for this typing (or with a regional variant). It's adorable like you imagine a fairy type should be but it's an elephant so water/dirt are associated with it as well.
We could totally get a Dumbo looking regional variant and it would be PRECIOUS
6:38 fun fact: zeraora was originally intended to be an electric fighting type but for some reason they scrapped it. i wish they didn’t cause zeraora is my favorite pokémon and i would’ve loved to see it be not only the only electric type mythical pokémon, but also the only electric fighting type pokémon
It’s such a good design
But of course it was mythical
I hate that categorisation entirely because I hate that you can’t get them purely in game
Version exclusives are pushing it, trade evos are a pain but mythical’s distribution method is beyond unreasonable
Normal/Bug would be a fun concept, imagine a Normal-type that becomes infested and gains Bug attributes while still retaining the flavour of the original. I also want Normal/Poison, as I can see that working design-wise.
Normal/Bug=Spider-Monkey
Just a photo realistic snail
@@matheusdemello2323 wow now I want to see that
yeah no that sounds disgusting

In Scarlet/Violet, I'd like to see an electric Fighting rabbit as the Pikachu clone. Espania has origins as meaning land of the rabbits.

I would like to see more normal type Pokemon paired with any other unused typing. Even though normal type might not be great pair with the other typing, i just think normal type should get more variety.

Grass fire could be with like a jack o lantern pokemon. Also, plants like the hogweed can burn ppl so that could work- some sorta pokedex entry along the lines of “this pokemon is a plant that secretes flammable oils, burning people to the touch”
The sandbender idea could be given to a regional form of accelgor, though Excavalier would also need one. A poison/steel one could be awesome
Victini should be changed to Fire/Fairy. I remember when it was announced they kept saying how it was the first ever Fire/Psychic type. They should've waited a generation to release it so it could be fairy.
I think victini should be fire flying type because it makes fire and fly’s

A Normal Poison type would actually make sense, since there are a lot of Animals that eat poisonous Plants/Animals and adapt the Poison into their System to use it for themselves.
So a normal base Pokemon with a Normal/Poison evolution has a lot of potential
Like the slow loris
Yea that’s what I was thinking I personally it’s the only normal type combo I want to see
Considering that poison resists fighting already. So you trade a fighting resist for a ghost immunity isn't bad. Plus normal types usually get a huge move pool through tm. Seeing a poison pokemon with more options would be nice.
A honey badge would be cool
Koala
You mentioning the idea of a pink flame for fire/fairy makes me think of a Litwick regional form which is actually friendly towards people
fun fact: giratina was almost a bug/dragon type, being based on a centipede yokai iirc. It was later changed to be more menacing
bug dragon

@An Entire Calamity oh

FOR BUG/DARK A NOCTURNAL BUG WOULD BE REALLY COOL, OR MAYBE ONE THAT SPENDS ITS TIME UNDERGROUND IN CAVES AND BECAUSE OF THE LOW LIGHT LEVEL IT GOT THE DARK TYPE TO SEE BETTER
quiet down please
I merely perceived something similar to Ariados as Bug/Dark. A black widow or similar. Easy to do. I had this idea of like a blood sucking spider, a cross between vampires and spiders which is called Spidula and evolves into Drachnid with the names being a mash of dracula and either spider or arachnid. Had this idea of a dark type move called Blood Drain which would be as strong as Giga Drain but perhaps doesn't work on pokemon that you imagine don't have a circulatory system or certain abilities. Just an idea.
Cicada
@PlasmaEnergised It similarly doesn't literally/solely represent evil despite the Japanese. It can, but it isn't restricted to that also standing for underhanded tactics or the like as we see with some of the moves, misunderstandings such as Absol, nocturnal &/or nightly connections like with Umbreon, etc.
@@Lu10nt I’m gonna steal this………
I really like the idea of Mercury being used in Poison/Steel. I kind of hoped Meltan (if it wasn’t electric) would have that thanks to its mercury filled body.
I want an alternate evolved form of Lairon for steel/ poison.
Like, it’s lairon with a massive Scorpion like tail dipped in poison.
Either way, a steel scorpion makes the most sense to me
@@ducksquidbat8315 like the steel/poison scorpion, as for lairon, make it's armoured edges corrosive and that way it attacks by trying to cut you with it's jagged armour plates to poison you, aggron gets all spiky and jagged with loose plates it can throw like scaly shot, fewer plates on it's body so it protects itself with corrosive salts or sprays
Meltan and Melmetal have been revealed to be made of gallium and not mercury
Well yes, but actually no. Bulbapedia directly states Mercury, although I also do understand Gallium. We don’t really know the official substance, though. I just thought it was a cool idea.
For me, the most natural Poison/Steel would be based on the metal mercury. It's poison and has a historic value as such, plus you could make a mad hatter reference. I'm actually really disappointed they didn't do this for Galar now. It's a perfect fit.
don't forget Leadddddd and that used to be widely used in Plumbing lol

@@sevenrings9450 So it maybe some type of lidquid mercury with consience.
Cyborg animal!!
Maybe an Armadillo?

I actually want a normal/steel type, it could be something like a porcupine with (mostly) metal quills. It would still be normal animal enough to be normal type, but with enough metal components to be steel type (especially considering lucario). I absolutely agree that it wouldn’t be a good type combination, but I also just want every type combo to be used eventually.
I'd love to see that concept for a normal poison type. Just a porcupine but it could get a couple poison stab moves
I like the idea of a doctor porcupine who can use diseases to attack and help other Pokémon from their quils
What about a shaggy dog made of steel shavings? Forgot what the actual breed is called, but it's grey with mop-like hair.
F-00 from the pokestar studios in BW2 was Normal/steel. I would really love for them to be a catchable pokemon
For Normal/Steel, I could see a literal Ironmouse, as in, a metallic computer mouse. I could also see a semi-robotic animal of some sort.
Fire/Fairy is a typing I've wanted since the type was announced. And Fuecoco to me looks like it'll be either a Fire/Electric or Fire/Fairy type.
It could be fire dragon
Fire electric? What is the reasoning for that
Fire/Fairy? I didnt think of that.
The perfect pokemon for thus dual type.
Rapidash: it's a fucking 🔥 unicorn 🦄
Victini: the fire spirit of victory. Pysich type is no more magic, is mental.
Delphox: it's a witch fox. Is no mental, it's magic
I said Scorbunny looked fire electric... it became mono fore. Personally I think it will turn into a Quetzalcoatl, not stay a crocodile, so it'll either be fire flying, fire dragon, or less likely but viable (because it's an Aztec God) maybe fire psychic or fairy.
14:37
we did get bug/dark
and its one of the most amazing pokemon of this generation,lokix is incredible
Ice Poison Idea:
Black ice
This also raises awareness for pollution which other poison types have been known to do. It would look really cool.
Edit: I was referring to the black ice in the arctic when air pollution gets trapped in the ice turning it black and causing it to melt faster. I saw it on a nature documentary so...
That’s actually sick
@@KitDoesThat that's actually *slick...haha get it?...i hate myself for that
I was thinking of a pokemon inspired by the world snake in norse myth.
Black ice is a term for ice that's hard to see on asphalt on roads making it dangerous to drive on
And not just poison types. Cursola being based on dying coral and turned into a Ghost Type was genius, and brings awareness to stop pollution in water
I like the ground/fairy knome idea, but I would like to see a ground/fairy Groundhog. It doesn’t fit with the region, but the fairy type comes from the legend that if the ground hog sees it’s shadow winter will be longer, so maybe in-game it’s a Pokémon that actually determines when the seasons change. For it’s ability, it could have a signature one where there’s a 50/50 chance for it to either cause hail or harsh sunlight, depending on whether or not it sees it’s shadow. Sun would be good for it so water is weaker (a super effective type against ground) whereas hail would be bad for it because of 100% accurate ice moves.
With Pyroar and Litleo, I will say Fire Normal fits them.
They are normal lions, but can breathe fire for some reason. I use the term “normal lion” in that they appear normal, they act like normal lions, and they form prides and what not. They just breathe fire. There is no yokai or mythical creature influence.
Appearing normal and acting normal doesn't really make sense. How is acting "fire" supposed to be?
Also growlithe and vulpix are normal animals. They're not on fire.
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme Vulpix and Ninetales is based off of the mythical “Nine-tailed fox”. Growlithe and Arcanine are based off of Komainu, the dog-lion statues built in Asian countries (this is why growlithe and arcanaine have tiger stripes).
Litleo and Pyroar are literally just lions that breathe fire. No magical influence. Just a regular lion, that happens to breathe fire with Pokémon magic
They also don't have fire on their bodies. Their manes can 'heat up' but it's not literally fire
Pyroar being a Normal/Fire is fine because they more or less are just lions with red and yellow hair. So, they are basically normal lions with the fire added on
Poison/Steel is my favorite of the unused combinations because of the possibilities with rusting. You could even start with a pure steel type (maybe even Steel/Normal for fun, lol), and then have it corrode over time. Maybe there could even be a split evolution where if you don’t take care of it (through some in game logic) it evolves into poison/steel, but if you do take care of it, it goes into something else. There’s so many possibilities
Gen 9 regional variant of Metagross that's steel/poison? Maybe the "supercomputer knowledge" that makes up the reason it's part psychic type has instead gone horribly wrong and corroded it over time, so it now becomes steel/poison as a result?
@@vgmaster02 That would be neat
@@Spellshot693 Or (and I know this isn't exactly the type), a regional Metagross with Corrosion as its ability? Then it can poison anything regardless of the target's type, and kinda sorta simulate corrosive steel, like it's using its supercomputer knowledge to pass along the corrosion inside it to its target.
Two words:
STEEL SCORPION
@@ducksquidbat8315 So...regional variant of Skorupi with a regional evolution, then.
I think a Bug/Dark pokemon based off a bug that collects dead bug body parts to construct it’s cocoon would be sick, i know there’s a real world bug like that but i forgot it’s name but just imagine it’s final evo coming out as a mangled mess of other bug types
Emo burmy?
there;s an assassin bug that eats ants and camo's itself with their dead bodies
I really hope they do a “Historic Ruins” theme carrying over some cool Hisuian forms. I really like that idea especially because of the possibilities,
I feel like a insect like poison type that shoots metal arrows would be cool
Bro that’s 3 different types right there.
@@Floof2 they never said bug type, just insect like. charizard is dragon like but still not dragon type
@@kurtiseata ohhhhhh soz
For ice/poison you could make a poison type fossil but have it "disappear" in a glacier so when it's introduced, the ice has gone deep into it's genetics, changing it's form and typing
I think normal-some element makes sense. If the creature isn't primarily composed of the element, but just has say an organ or small part that emits it, it should be a normal elemental. Like torkoal and arcanine seem like the flames engulf their body, and even if you were to touch their legs or face it'd probably be hot, but for pyroar, it looks more like only the mane is made of flames, and that it can probably breathe fire, so they can use the element but they _aren't_ really the element. But the body looks normalesque.
This is what I was thinking too
Exactly. I feel like a dual typing with normal is a great way to represent Pokémon with weaker or more subtle elemental motifs than their pure type brethren.
It's why even with the 4x weakness, I think Rocruff and Lycanroc should have been normal/rock. They are more so dogs that use rocks, whereas most other rock types appear as if they are actually made of rock.
@@EmeralBookwise yeah ikr, lycanroc definitely should've been normal rock
Eiscue should have been normal/ice in my opinion.
Beartic should've been ice normal. It's a polar bear. Missed opportunity
It'd actually be interesting if the starters became grass/fire, fire/water, and water/grass types, because those types in terms of defense are actually balanced (all of them have 3 types effective against them) and the idea that no starter is more advantageous nor disadvantageous over another might make the battle more interesting when they face each other
Lol I was thinking the same thing when he said the start would never be that combo.
I had the same idea but the other way, so grass/water, fire/grass and water/fire
@@hotdogboy8475 ludicolo has the typing of water and grass
Fuecoco is a pepper croc, its very likely getting either fire/water or fire/grass
@@Fireluigi1225 honestly I’d like to see fire/ghost for ghost pepper but since they just did that with Hisuian Typhlosion I don’t see it happening
Since I'm assuming Megas aren't gonna come back for Gen 9, I wanna see some of the Mega exclusive types show up for real. Give me a permanent Dragon/Fairy type, damn it!
omg id kill for a fairy/dragon type pokemon
I feel like Goodra could’ve worked as a dragon/fairy type instead of pure dragon.
@@yorecf9641 would’ve been pretty solid competitively then.
@@yerman0564 indeed. Maybe avoid its current NUBL fate.
Yeah!
Michael: We don’t need a poison/normal type.
Grafaiai: Imma end the this guy’s whole career.
It’s weird that they have a noticeable amount of unused fighting types as the design for fighting types is normally just a buff creature
I’d love if ground/fighting wasn’t actually buff but a small mummy with big bandaged fists, and they could use the bandages as whips or ropes to cling or hit opponents. You could make it evolve into a taller creepier mummy but I don’t want it too creepy or people would question the lack of ghost type. Also, this is something that happened before since falinks is actual a cute fighting pokemon
@@boo9781 That sounds cool but sounds more ghost fighting no matter how cute it is
Because we’ll mummy’s don’t really have a whole ground type thing going on on there own
Sure they ar ein pyramids and have been shown to have power over the dunes in modern media but that’s about it
Really everything about a mummy fitsghotd type
And doenst really fit the whole Spain and Portugal theme
It would have made a perfect Pokémon for gal ar though given the whole mummy craze while primarily being a thing in France also managed to make its way to the rest of Europe
Britain especially
A tough it would have also been a great Pokémon for Pokémon x and y with its French theme
And having more then One ghost fighting Pokémon would be cool
@@boo9781 How about a Monitor Lizard (look it up if you don't know what that is) it makes perfect sense
I mean it doesn't quite fit Portugal and Spain but they could be imported from north Africa
@@killerkirby366 : They could make it naturally have Scrappy as a way to reference it kind of being a ghost type too. :)
I'm honestly surprised that we didn't get the poison steel combination yet considering that the poison barb item exists which is literally poison covered steel 🤔.
Honestly normal Ghost was a neat one to get actually. It added a ghost resistance to Hisuian Zoruark and also just felt like a very fitting combination for it
Actually, I still do not understand why it is normal type. To me it looks like the most supernatural thing imaginable compared to all those other bland normal types
@@mrmacura3421 simple, he couldn’t do illusions back then so he was normal… in comparison to regular zoroark. Also, it’s the ghost of an animal, which is pretty normal compared to “haunted anchor”
@@boo9781 Okay, but many other ghosts are also the spirits of normal beings, in some cases even humans. But that does not mean they are still "normal" post mortem. I rather have the feeling Gamefreak just wanted to include this combo but didn't come up with something better suited to the normal type
@@mrmacura3421 well those are mostly abstractions of their former selfs.
Also Zorua and Zoruark aren't really the traditional ghosts persay, they are more inspired by nature spirits/Yokai.
They seem to be specifically based on Yurei, a subset of Yokai which are basically restless vengeful spirits, most often of women or young children, who keep the appearance of their former selfs (seeming normal at first glace until you look closer and realize what you are looking at is not normal at all) but use their powers to enact their warth on the still living.
That's quiet literally 1 to 1 the explanation we got for these pokemon. Them having gone extinct after being chased away by humans from other regions due to fear of their abilities and then being "reincarnated" as vengeful spirits who wander the world and attack every other creature that comes near them.
They are even very clearly moddled after a mother and child, with Zoruark being a lot more feminine in legends and keeping the protective parental instinct to protect Zorua.
You can also interpret their normal type as showing that they are a husk of their former selfs, no longer able to access their powers but still bound to their old appearance but now sickly white and drenched in blood.
@@safidraws Okay, thank you for the explanation! I still have one question however: why do they still posses their illusionary powers? I read that data miners discovered that the developers hid their original ability from Unova in the game code of poa. Is there any answer to that?
So, from this list, we got:
- Poison/Normal: Shroodle & Grafaiai
- Grass/Fire: Scovillain
- Electric/Fighting: Pawmo, Pawmot & Iron Hands
- Ground/Fighting: Great Tusk
- Fairy/Fighting: Iron Vailant
- Steel/Poison: Varoom & Revavroom
- Bug/Dark: Lokix
Still unused types:
- Ice/Poison
- Ground/Fairy
- Rock/Ghost
- Bug/Dragon
- Fire/Fairy
- Normal/Rock, Normal/Bug, Normal/Steel, Normal/Ice.
I think I’m most interested in Poison-Ice! It reminds me of Mercury’s low melting point and it gives me ideas about Pokémon with mercury claws that it keeps frozen when not attacking, but allowing them to melt and effect opponents! That could also make for a pretty neat ability :)
It may just be Poison Touch then.
I was thinking of something like that, but the chance of poison goes up if fire-type moves are used, and vice-versa with ice. I’m not one for competitive, but I think that would be interesting!
What's interesting is that mercury is that the air om mercury is toxic. Additionally, the little sunlight that reaches the gas giant triggers domething similar to nuclear fusion in the respective liquid hydrogen and ammonia. Maybe create an ability that counteracted sunny day's effects by contingency? Acrid Haze sounds positively perfidious and underhanded
@@lordlightning2339 I meant the metal but that's also really cool!!!
Sooo pretty much Poison Touch or Corrosion as a secondary ability?
Bug/dragon = "dragonfly". Yanma's evolution line would be good with a new evolution or regional variant
I honestly thought for the longest time that Yanmega was dragon bug
The fact that flygon isn't a bug dragon type still seems like an oversight to me
I'd say keep Yanma the same, but give Yanmega a new form

For poison steel, imagine Trubbish getting a new evolution into a trash can.
The lid would facilitate elemental fangs, granting it more offensive variety than Garboder.
I DESPERATELY NEED A STEEL/POISON TRUBBISH-
Yes. Trubbish need a regional variant. Not even Gmax Garboader could make people like it. IT NEEDS MORE!
I have an idea:
While walking behind buildings in a main town or city, some of the trash cans are shaking (like the trees in the Wild Area in Galar) and some just contain possible trash-like items - the sell-only items like Pearls, Black Sludge, maybe the Ring Target, etc. - when you check on them. These might refresh once a day, giving plenty of resources and money if you have the time and luck to acquire these.
Then on occasion, the regional variants of the Trubbish line pops out instead, engaging in a battle. If you were to snatch their items by capturing them or using Thief or Covet to grab it in battle, they would be holding those aforementioned trash items.
@@generuan3547 That seems like a super smart idea.
My only problem with it is that garbage doesn't tend to be valuable. Maybe have items like leftovers or a twisted spoon.
@@savvythedivineyethuggable7493 There were plenty of valuable items from Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, of which all but one sell for barely less than 1000 Pokemon dollars. There was also a Brick Piece item from Gen 2, which served no other purpose and was sold for 25 Pokemon dollars. Perhaps just implement these as the sell trash.
Leftovers make sense (it's an apple core), but it should also be quite rare if this were to be implemented, given that the item itself has great battle capabilities, since it heals every turn. Twisted Spoon (raises psychic power) could be less rare. Same goes for some of the other type enhancers, like Charcoal.
I included Ring Target, and it may also include Lagging Tail, Iron Ball, Black Sludge, or Toxic Orb, to have items that are usually avoided as held items by most (I certainly did, given that's how I felt about Black Sludge in Wyndon in Sword and Shield), but have great capabilities by the experienced. Using any of these items with Trick or Switcheroo is an interesting strategy, or just constantly fuel Fling with Iron Ball.
The main reason I can think of for Pokémon to gain a normal typing is that they can get same type attack bonus on their normal type moves. For Pyroar, it’s the reason why hyper voice hits so hard.
Edit: Also, despite a lack of resistance to fighting, it gains an immunity to ghost, so that has to be worth something.
Since Mega Evolution is no longer in the game, the combination of Dragon/Fairy is effectively unused. If you believe Lockstin and Gnoggin's theory about how the way each type uses it's magic cause the type matchup, then it's another pair of opposite types. I think they could do something really cool with the design, maybe a hybrid between a dragon and a siren.
A Phoenix would be the perfect fire/fairy. Reason 1. Every culture has a Phoenix analog, like dragons. Reason 2 . It isn't an overly used design in Pokemon ( Ho-ho and Moltres are basically the only two you can argue about being Phoenix)
Reason 3. Every Phoenix analog is seen as mystical creatures.
What if it had an ability somewhat like Wishi-washi, but it became more powerful after it is defeated? Be an interesting way to incorporate the rebirth concept. We can only hope...
I think you can argue Fletchning’s Line becomes phoenixes. It starts as normal/flying and its next two evolutions are fire/flying. Phoenixes are also often depicted as some sort of raptor as well.
That said, it can still easily be a repeat inspiration for something much more flame-y like Ponyta/Rapidash and Moltress. (Imo we can have Moar Repeats outside of dogs, birds, and bugs…)
Another phoenix would be good. We already got moltres
I NEED A FIRE/FAIRY PHOENIX POKEMON!!!!!
@@wonderiferoustea here's an idea to tie in with the Phoenix idea. When it reaches zero hp it restores 50% of max hp and double the base attack stats( for the remainder of the battle) but, the defensive stats are cut in half.
7:03 I remember rumors that Cubchu/Beartic were going to have a regional form that was based on the idea of having a cold with Ice and Poison type.

As much as I love Tapu Lele, I feel like they couldve made a Fire/Fairy guardian instead (with all the starter types being completed then) and it couldve been really cool tiki volcano lookin. Like I said, I like Tapu Lele but im surprised they went with Psychic/Fairy instead of Fire/Fairy
they had to do a psychic fairy because of psychic surge, it was tapu fini that probably could have been replaces as water was irrelevant to misty surge

On the basis that they continue with regional variants, I can see potential for a bug/dragon Flygon variant. I think that could be pretty cool

@@vincenzoditrolio6985 because of the carbon emissions? Also not sure how they would make an location into a Pokémon but it would be interesting to see how they would go about it. (Unless there is a Pokémon based on a location already and I just can’t think of it)
2:08 I’d like to see his stance on the new grafaiai pokemon xD
Tbh for the ice/poison typing, I think that I would love to see a variant version of the Trubbish evolution line. I think that the trash bag Pokémon could pair up wonderfully with the trash popsicle gimmick. 🤷🏻♂️
4:36 I could see that being a Phamtump and Trevenant regional variant
8:05 I could see Yamask getting a mummy regional evolution since Cofagrigus is based off of Egyptian tombs and has the Mummy ability
11:50 Yanma is based off of a Dragonfly so could also give it a Dragon/Bug type regional variant/evolution
Fire/grass is definitely something that Gen 9 should introduce. Just imagine the possibilities with this combination.
Under sun, their fire STABs would increase and solar beam wouldn't need a turn to charge. Chlorophyll and/solar power would also be a huge boon.
5:16 I must say that is NOT the defensive chart for Grass/Fire type
I just realised it too, I think it's for Grass/Fairy, Poison 2x both Grass and Fairy
"A starter is never going to be Fire/Grass"
I don't entirely agree with that. Not in it's base form maybe but I can easily see the final evos being Grass/Water, Fire/Grass and Water/Fire, respectively.
but then suddenly the type effectiveness has changed drastically right? you have to account for the fact that your fire type starter will do neutral damage against the rivals starter? theres like balancing issues. theres also a lot more type coverage against any gyms/elite four
Volcanion is a fire and water type so it is possible
@@saigikujouno7395 Well, yeah. But you don't have to use your starter against the rival's starter. And by the time they fully evolve you've most likely already beaten at least half of the gyms.

@sunnyside espeon my little joke went over your head like a rainbow, bud.
Dark and fairy aren't really opposites. Fairys were quite often nasty and sometimes downright evil in the old fairy tales. People used to perform certain rituals in the past, like leaving milk or food outside for fairyfolk as to not get on their bad side and cursed with bad luck or disease.
I'd love to see more "pretty" fairy/dark pokémon in the future. Or other fairy types that look more grim, even if they aren't fairy/dark. Getting special fairy and dark combo moves like hawluchas flying press would also be pretty nice.
right? i find it funny how people jsut think about fairies as like tinkerbell when the fae exist. Fae...who constantly tricked people, stole children, stole people will through their names, etc.
right? i find it funny how people just think about fairies as like tinkerbell when the fae exist. Fae...who constantly tricked people, stole children, stole people's will through their names, etc.
Yeah but fairies are often associated with light, just like fire is associated with heat (while so many things are combustible even at room temperature), which is still always considered a counter to ice. But pokemon goes for this sort of thematic representation on purpose to simplify the concept of types rather than make it all about the intrinsic complexities of these types and what their entire potential

I’m very surprised that we haven’t had a Bug/Dark type yet. Something like a cockroach Pokémon could fulfill that typing very easily. Also we need a better bug/ground type. Lots of bugs burrow in the ground but the only Pokémon we have of that type is Nincada which turns into Bug/Flying and Bug/Ghost when it evolves. Maybe they could make one designed around the mole cricket. (Cool bug that can dig, swim, fly…pretty much everything)
I want a Normal/Ghost besides a regional variant, because it could be one of the generic comma shaped ghosts, or tombstone shaped ghosts.
If there doing regional forms, I'd like to see a Grass/Fire Sunflora regional form because I feel like it would give a boost to its popularity along with it making sense since its a plant taht relates to the sun (aka big ball of fire).
Nah, nothing will make that trash cool
Tbh it should of been a Grass/Fire in the first place. If it’s gonna be a regional form, it should have a more different type combo
Yessss! Back when megas were around I designed a mega sunflora that was grass/fire, but I’ll settle for a regional form (but they seriously need to improve its stats!!)
For electric/fighting, I’ve always thought that it would be cool for the Electabuzz line to get a new form. My only idea was to change them in some way to look different (colors and all, like other regional variants) but give it one of those karate headbands along with a karate belt and some brass knuckles, all made from wires. I have the image in my head but I’m too lazy to make it lol
It’s also possible they could give Electivire the fighting type
Zeraora possibly too
Nah just give it to the Buzz line now rather than a new form
Honestly I'd love to see an evolution or regional varient of ambipom with the normal bug type, like it mutates and grows so many arms that it becomes a literal spider monkey
Also bug normal does make sense as a typing. If bug dragon can work so well, we can easily get a bug normal type that's some sort of mammal insect fusion. Like a literal wolf spider or something.
Michael has always helped me brighten my day and gotten me through personal stuff. So thanks for being yourself Michael and everyone who supports him!

I think that they could give Quilfish even more spot light. It would be ice poison type, and it would be like Quilfish froze but then magicly fuse with the ice. And it lives on colder waters. But they could make it when they are makeing a more northern region, like abaut Sweden or Finland
I think an new evolution of Sudowoodo would make a decently good rock/ghost type as the pokemon is now mimic a prettified tree.
You mentioned Grimmsnarl kind of not fitting the fairy type when it comes to appearance but I’d like to point out the imp! Imps are basically bad or ugly fairies so there are countless imps to draw from to create Pokémon with fairy and (insert type here). Psudodragons are small imp looking creatures that resemble dragons so a dragon/fairy type would be interesting.
a thing about the normal type, its not always a "starting type" for example i have dog(normal) now its fire dog(normal fire). it is also used as: ihave this dragon (dragon) but i need to make it more friendly and soft so i give it the normal type: drampa, or i have a smart monkey, im am going to make that monkey look smart like the abra line: psycick, but if i want it just being a monkey wich is smart but is still just a monkey, i give it the normal type.
normal isnt always a type wich indicates the species of a pokemon now in the newer gens it is more fixed on the personality the looks or some special gimick
(also i want to see a normal ice snowman alot)
edit:
also i want a normal poison regional ditto: a pokemon wich is glitched and corrupted in a toxic liquid wich mutated its cells when using its ability the cells make a mistake an mutate to a different species making it more of a metronomy pokemon i know its not really a good pokemon in a gameplay way but i think it would be funny and good for challanges
note: (as you can see im a normal type fan)
edit edit: im also really pissed how gamefreak missed an opportunity to make kricketopt and kricketune a normal bug because they ar so music based and normal is also the sound type
Not all sound associated pokemons are normal types, like flygon, vibrava they are vibration pokemons and also yanma, yanmega and copperrajah and many more
A Normal/Ice type who is half normal animal and Half ice sculpture would be very interesting
For poison and steel weapons covered in poison would be a good start
