Favorite type

Earth · Jun 14th, 2013, 6:25:24 PM

I thought it would be fun to see what type reigns number one in peoples minds besides the poll you can also quik reply and say why its the best type

For me it is the Dark type is has my 3 favorite pokemon in it, it doesnt really seem weak to anything important and its sprite designs are allways badass

Ice is cool.

Ba dum tss.

Hulavuta · Jun 14th, 2013, 7:06:01 PM

If you asked me a few months ago, I would've said Steel. (wait, we actually did a thread like this in April)

But now, it is definitely Psychic.

Champion Steve · Jun 14th, 2013, 7:07:40 PM

Sorry, Ghost, but the new type has moon lasers!

Aerophoenix · Jun 14th, 2013, 7:14:41 PM

I've always had an affinity for Bug types. I don't know why, just do.

Personally, I've always admired Fire types. Sure, most Fire types suck competitively due to Water's popularity and the extremely hazardous weakness to the extremely common Stealth Rock (I'm looking at you, Charizard), but others like Heatran, Blaziken, and Volcarona are bosses.

Also, Psychic types are awesome as well. Mewtwo still kicks (or should I say telepathically rapes) ass.

This is what I said in the other thread. My opinion still has not changed. Fire may not dominate OU, but I don't care. Fire is an awesome type for me and is why I pick Fire starter for every game. Psychic comes at a close second.

CyberOdin · Jun 14th, 2013, 8:24:33 PM

Water type is power.

Phadunk · Jun 14th, 2013, 8:34:34 PM

Always loved fairy types. Since 1996.

D Dog Master of war · Jun 14th, 2013, 8:50:25 PM

Dragon type is always the best. Ain't scared of no fairys.

Scotti · Jun 14th, 2013, 8:51:19 PM

ground is my favorite

Shiruba · Jun 14th, 2013, 11:21:15 PM

rayquaza and the lati twins are dragon types gg everyone else

-NLMRY- · Jun 15th, 2013, 1:12:50 AM

Bugs, because the whole idea of Pokémon is based on Tajiri's bug collecting hobby from his childhood.

CJorex · Jun 15th, 2013, 1:21:50 AM

Check my avatar. What do you think it will be?

Charro · Jun 15th, 2013, 2:15:07 AM

More than being my favorite, I say that most of my favorite pokémon are in that type: Psychic. Jirachi, Latias, Gardevoir, Gallade, Lugia and a large etc.

Iamlegendshot66 · Jun 15th, 2013, 2:36:56 AM

Somthing about the ??? type is just so good. Always been my favorite type but....WHY did they have to take it out in 5th generation. Curse is now ghost type which is crap compared to ???. This is why no one uses curse anymore.

The Diverman · Jun 15th, 2013, 2:40:17 AM

I like Dark, Electric, and Bug, but if I had to pick one, it would probably be Dark since 4 out of my top 10 favorite list is Dark.(Absol, Houndoom, Sableye, and Zoroark.)

Gokuzbu · Jun 15th, 2013, 2:55:16 AM

Psychic is awesome. So powerful that they had to nerf it in gen 2. All the best pokemon are psychic type; Mewtwo, Gardevoir, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Alakazam etc.

Dragon is awesome too but that's like the answer of every 5 year old

The Reptile · Jun 15th, 2013, 3:56:22 AM

Poison is my favorite type imo. Sure, by itself it's not much. However, Poison makes some of the greatest sub-types ever imo. Not only that, but a lot of badass pokemon are Poison-type.

Gen 6 shall be the Poison Revolution! We shall overthrow our fairy overloards and claim the land of OU!

The Shadow Lugia · Jun 15th, 2013, 4:07:52 AM

The Psychic type has got to be my top type.
I don't know why, but I've been fascinated with the power of the mind, and psychokinesis. I've always loved the idea of making items levitate, reading minds, etc. I also like the Psychic type's weaknesses are all common fears: the dark, ghosts and creepy crawlies (Bug-type).

Darknesscrusher · Jun 15th, 2013, 4:10:57 AM

Fighthing!

Vashimus · Jun 15th, 2013, 7:28:59 AM

Fighting.

Because who needs to be fancy with fire, electricity, or psychokinetic abilities, when you can just beat your opponent to a pulp? Simple, yet effective.

Rizon · Jun 15th, 2013, 8:46:56 AM

I'd say Electric.

Electric-type Pokémon are very, very strong in rain.
I can use Thunder without a miss in rain. :D
The Electric moves can cause a paralysis too, that's great imo.

RegiFlame150 · Jun 15th, 2013, 9:50:00 AM

These wings are made to flyyyy :)
I love the flying type a lot because it is surprisingly effective when used right. They also have Chatot (gotta love that Chatter), Staraptor (Screw you Bouffalant, my hair is cooler),
The genies and gyarados (dem staches) and of course Delibird
