They can be dual-typed, but at least one of those has to match the type you choose. What type are you choosing, and what’s your team look like?
I would have to choose Bug-type, of course. Team composition would be Galvantula, Yanmega, Heracross, Centiskorch, Genesect, and Rabsca. As to why… I just like 'em, lol. I’m not much of a competitive player. What would your team/type be?
Hmmm, I’ll try a real challenge for me:
- Snorlax
- Raticate
- Pidgeot
- Oranguru
- Lickilicky
- Smeargle
Snorlax is a massive self carry in every singleplayer game!
I would go with fairy types. My team would be Sylveon, Tinkaton, Gardevoir, Galarian Rapidash and Flutter Mane.
My reason for the team is that I really like the design of them and I just like them overall. They can also receive and deal a huge amounts of damage. Sylveon have almost exclusively managed to carry me through the games.

Hmm, it’s hard to pick a single type. I do love my steel types (channeling my inner Steven), but I also adore water types. Let’s just pick steel.
- Lucario is a super easy pick. He’s a beast and fan favorite.
- Metagross is one of my favorites ever since I first got one in Sapphire. Plus pseudolegendary, so he’s essential.
- I really love Aegislash. The design and typing are both fantastic.
- Tinkaton was a favourite in Violet and it’s design is so cool. It’s honestly not very strong, but I’d bring it along for fun.
- Violet’s brutal raids also made me fall in love with Kingambit. I only used him for raids, but damn was he cool.
- Because I also love water types, gotta have that Empoleon. It’s a classic design, anyway.
Possible replacements:
- Gholdengo could be swapped for Aegislash. Give me some more balance for physical vs special and his ability is top tier. I don’t care for his design though.
- Ground is my nemesis. I probably should have a flier or levitator. I’d probably opt for swapping tink with corviknight. I love the design of corviknight and the lore makes it a hilarious pick to swap.
I’d have to go either normal or water types. Idk who exactly for either, that’d be a tough choice. So many good ones!
I think I sticked to only using Fire type when I played one of the recent games, if only because a lot of my favorite pokemon (Ninetales, Arcanine, Houndoom, Salazzle) were that type.
Getting the TM for Flamethrower late in the game was a massive power spike. Type coverage isn’t really an issue as well, because of sunny day + solarbeam.
Dark type. 100% just because I play by the rule of cool and my favourite Pokémon belong to that type. Not sure about the entire team, but Houndoom, Mightyena, and Umbreon would be there for sure.
Strong choices all around. Dark type is definitely in my top five, and I love Mightyena. I think it’s easy to sleep on, since you get access to Poochyena literally right out of the gate, but it’s a seriously tough Pokémon.
