So I was thinking through some of the past starter typings because it does feel like they've been running out of ideas lately (Fire especially feels like it's been suffering because it's had Fire/Fighting 3 times and Fire/Ghost twice, so it desperately needs a more unique combination), and one of the things that's stuck out to me is that they've really been using 3/4 of the Fighting/Psychic/Ghost/Dark quartet multiple times, including a Fighting/Ghost/Dark trio the last 2 times. If they do in fact create a new starter trio with regional variants they really need to break away from this for once. Literally half of the starter trios have either been this or fully monotypes. Fighting especially needs a rest, as it's been a secondary type for starters a whopping 6 times, including 3 for Fire, 2 for Grass, and 1 (and most recently) for Water, so they can't really put it on ANY of the three starters without it feeling tired and repetitive. I really want to just see them do something different with the secondary types this time. No Fighting/Psychic/Ghost/Dark this time, no monotypes, just come up with a new set of typings for the three starters. Can we please get something like Electric, Rock, Ground, Flying, Bug, Poison, Ice, Dragon, Steel, or Fairy this time? Heck, if they want a second type triangle then they could do Ground, Steel, and Ice and that wouldn't feel done to death (although really I think the most unique thing to do with that trio would be Grass/Steel, Fire/Ground, and Water/Ice but any of the other combos would still be fine). Just whatever they do, if they make Lumiosan forms for the starters don't just fall back on the same tired typings we've been getting lately. It doesn't matter how much they mix them up, they all still feel old.
