We need more Fire-types. Maybe even a Levitating Electric type though? (lol, poor Magnezone xD)

Dragon, because there is so many new combos to do with them.
Dark/Dragon
Electric/Dragon
Fire/Dragon
Grass/Dragon
You get the picture.

I voted Electric, just because there's, what, four dual typed electrics at the moment? I'm REALLY hoping for a dual typed electric in the end. Preferably ice, but anything new would be decent.

Bug-Dragon. Unique and awesome. I have to wait for the next type, though.

QFT. I voted Ghost, because the current pool of Ghosts is surprisingly small. We either have the bulky Ghosts that have trouble hurting anything with a Choice Band (here's looking at you, Dusknoir), or the ridiculously weak Ghosts that can't take a hit (Gengar anyone?). Plus I'd love to see a Ghost/Steel.

Ghost/steel would be broken...only weak to fire/ground and most ghosts have levitate. =\

I voted Flying. IMO they need a more badass bird...

Are you going to make a mod server on Shoddy with these pokes?

I voted Grass, as I think grass is quite fun, but it looks like bug is going to win. Good though, bug needs more guys as well.

ha. I want Fighting. It can either to into the kickass Fighting/Flying sweeper that Staraptor should have been. Or, we could make a Ground/Fighting type. Yah, everything else is pretty tired and overdone.

Well, without poison on the list I can't have that Poison/Dragon I've always wanted, so I'm gonna go with Electric. It's the only type not represented in the top 25 of the most recent weighted shoddy list, and for good reason: there are no good electric pokemon, save maybe magnezone, who isn't too great anyway. I'd like to see a mono-electric levitator a Fire/Electric whose two possible abilities are flash fire and volt absorb. Fun. --TAY

I have yet to check the other poll today, but the frontrunners in this thread are Bug and Electric. Assuming only one thing in the other poll beats out Electric, it will make it to the top three, and therefore the next poll to determine dual typing. For reference, these will be your options:

1) 1st place/2nd place
2) 1st place/3rd place
3) 2nd place/3rd place
4) 1st place only

Let these choices influence your voting or how you try to convince others.

EDIT: Current Leaders

1st) Steel
2nd) Bug
3rd) poison

Come on guys, I want to see Electric or Ice too.
