I don't like the idea of type matchups only being added for the competitive, there should always be some sort of logical reason for adding a super effective or resistance.

[@goldbergvids]

That’s exactly what i thought every time he gave a type matchup simply because “this type needs a buff/nerf” or something like that

[@jeremyolivares2021]

@@goldbergvidsironically enough they made some sense logically, if you take dragons witch are mythical creatures then it makes sense that they would be weak to literal magic kinda like the source is stronger then the carriers and fighting, well what’s martial arts doing in comparison to magic and if you interpret steel as society then magic as nature then either can be super affective against each other, although I don’t see any good reasons for poison, ice and bug I don’t understand the reasoning behind fairy and dragon, but I can understand the reasoning for dark and psychic as those are connected to the mind and emotion and likely aren’t reliant on their senses, flying seems like a stretch mainly because of its dual nature but I can see sound resisting it because sound is just vibrating wind

[@Drone_21]

I don't understand the logic behind half of the current type matchups though

[@jrodd13]

Well take a type like Sound, it being good against strong types like Water or Steel makes sense, and not being very effective against bad types like Ice and not affecting Bug would add a great flavour of balance to the game while also thematically working

The thing about the magic type is that it’s confusing. It’s like having a “magic element” in a fantasy element magic system: everything they do is essentially magic, so what’s the distinction? Is it just some sorta arcane energy? That would be the fairy and/or psychic type though, so what would the magic type really be? Most of the types function as an element of sort.

[@Lelkeck]

Arcane is a very much more fitting name

Giving a move the ability to flinch every single opponent in the field is beyond broken, infinitely more than Fake Out. For one, Fake Out is single target and can only be used in the first turn the user is sent out, while this can be used every two turns. You're basically giving any mon the ability yo set-up Trick Room or any boosting move for free in Doubles. Not only that: the fact this has +4 priority makes it impossible to block if the user doesn't either have Shield Dust or a Covert Cloak.

[@-BenGaming-]

No it’s not are you dumb? First off the move doesn’t do damage, second off it’s only useful in double battles

[@leonardooberdadealmeidamon2305]

You know, not all pokemon would have to drop one of their typings if they're already related to something that inbodies the "new type". They could be a Dhelmise/Bombirdier situation where they have a afinity (or in this case ability) with that type but don't exactly make part of it.

[@sonicathewerehog1915]

The challenge arises when introducing a sound and magic type, as it intersects with the existing normal and fairy categories. Abilities like Liquid Voice and moves such as Boomburst fall under the sound type, while moves like Substitute and Throat Chop counteract sound-based strategies, essentially creating a need for an entirely new type. Attempting to categorize sound as a subcategory of normal and designating fairy as the magic type has been explored by Pokémon previously. However, the fairy type itself is intended to encapsulate magical elements, making it a broader classification than just magic alone. While fairies are often associated with magic, it's essential to recognize that they embody various characteristics beyond a singular theme.

[@SiegeDiaz]

Bug not resisting or being immune to sound was a missed opportunity

[@GiftOfKnowledge-np9vg]

I personally like the idea of a data/cyber type. It doesn’t step on a whole lot of existing types since the only existing ‘mons that it would apply to are things like Porygon, maybe some of the more robotic Steel types and future paradox Pokemon, and I guess I could see arguments for some man-made ‘mons (I wouldn’t include Ditto or plain old ‘object Pokemon’ though). Otherwise I think it’d be pretty fresh, and while adding types just for the comparative effect may be ill advised, I’d would like to say that arguments could be made for how it could be strong against some of the best types like Dragon, Fairy, Ghost, or Steel, while also weak against some of the worst types like Poison, Bug, Ice, or Rock without feeling like we’re just adding the interactions to balance type charts. (Those types are still considered respectively good & bad right? I don’t actually keep up with competitive so I only know the really good & really bad types.) Still, preference over it and something like a Sound type may depend on what a person wants from a new type. Do you want something that’s new and doesn’t take away from existing types while interacting with them; or do you want something that can easily be added, applied to old pokemon and old moves, and just slide in like it was always there. Looking around, it seems opinions on this can vary.

[@SpoonAtNoon]

Maybe I’m stupid and not understanding the scientific reasons, but the super effective for sounds needs a change. They can’t just be a “it’s super effective cuz these types need a nerf” Sound has to have a reason for why it’s super effective

[@Demi-Joker]

I've been working on a fanmade Pokémon region and I personally added a blood type. I felt the themes of the type (blood, organs, predators, and brutality) fit the darker tone of the plot, and the resistances and weaknesses help buff and nerf some types. Super effective against: Fairy (because fairies are generally small enough to become easy prey to carnivorous animals), Fighting (because punching things requires muscles and blood flow to the arms), Psychic (because blood is a common fear), and Dragon (because of quite a few mythological dragon-slaying weapons being forged from a dragon's blood) Not very effective against: Steel (the trope of knights and warriors using their own blood or pain as a source of power), Ice (because of the effects extreme temperatures have on the body), Fire (because of the effects extreme temperatures have on the body), and Poison (because poison can really mess you up if it gets into your bloodstream) No effect against: Ghost (because ghosts don't have blood, as well as blood mysteriously appearing on walls from thin air being a trope in horror movies that feature paranormal phenomena) Resistant to: Steel (iron is in the blood), Fairy (because fairies are generally small enough to be easy prey to carnivorous animals), Blood (because you can't out-hemomancy a hemomancer), and Dark (because of the concept of bloodlust) Weak to: Fire (because of the effects extreme temperatures have on the body), Ice (because of the effects extreme temperatures have on the body), Poison (because poison can really mess you up if it gets into your bloodstream), and Bug (because haha funny mosquito go "bzz bzz SSSSSLLLLLLLUUUUUUURRRRRRPPPPP")

None of these would really work as types. Sound already has too many moves and mechanics associated that would require massive overhaul and rebalancing to be it's own type, Magic (as you said) overlaps with Psychic and Fairy too much, and Cyber would just be far too restrictive of a concept since it'd require making tons of man-made Pokemon just to fill it with far more abstract designs that couldn't work for other types. Also, outside of what happened to the Rotom forms in gen 5, the only type that would ever be replaced for a new one would be Normal, as that is what happened when Fairy was introduced.

[@alexpfeifle879]

What would be a physical sound type move? Like Kiai Kick and Howling Strike? I think brilliant types to defend sound might be ice and grass since snow dampens noise and trees don’t have ears 😂

[@Surepeacooler]

I think ludicolo should keep its grass and water types but give an ability that gives it STAB on sound type moves

[@isthattoast2633]

I like the idea of the Cyber type the most, since it feels like it has its own identity without stepping on the toes of other types/mechanics as much as Sound or Magic. Especially since Porygon always felt weird as a Normal type when it's literally data brought to life

[@burner555]

Steel and Electric(Psychic?):

[@PrenticesJeffcoat]

3:44 I think psychic should be weak to sound because it is like mediating and you can’t mediate if it is loud

[@dravenlearned6910]

Yeah, but psychic is only weak to the three types that humans are afraid of; dark, bug, and ghost. Unless it's a sudden loud noise, humans aren't really afraid of sound.

[@Salmonboyo]

While magic is interesting, I see a lot of people say that Psychic and Fairy types are the "Embodiment of Magic types anyway".

Great video. When thinking about those types, I can definitely see a group of starters where there regional counterparts have then. For example: - regional Rillaboom = Grass/Sound - regional Delphox = Fire/Magic - regional Blastoise = Water/Cyber

[@kingcobraarchie]

Type relationships should always have a logical reason. Every single one already in the game does and changing that by adding another for purely competitive reasons is just stupid imo

[@PRCLLRM21]

My take on these types' chart: *Sound* 2x Effective Ice (The whole loud noises cracking ice thing) Steel (Sound moves the fastest through metal and can vibrate them) Water (Sound passes through water very quickly) Cyber (or) Electric (Sound waves causing short circuits in machines) Psychic (Loud noises can break concentrations) Resists Steel (for the same reason above) Rock/Ground (Same reason as steel but not as severe) 2x weaks to Flying (Sound moves a lot slower compare to liquids and solid) Resisted By Rock (While sound travels through rocks quickly, thick layers of walls can dampen sounds) Flying (Same reason as above) Bug (Most bugs are deaf) Immunity Sound (Acoustic Short Circuits) *Magic* 2x Effective Fighting (Spells are known to overcome martial skills) Dragon/Magic (Wizards using magic against dragons, and dragons wielding magic of their own) Ghost/Dark (Magic is used to drive away malevolent spirits) Resists Fairy (They are related to each other) Fighting is for the same reason above 2x weakness Psychic (Concentration is a crucial part in spellcasting) Steel (Weapons can enchanted with magic) Dragon/Magic (Dragons wield magic) Resisted By Cyber (Two polarising types) Steel, Psychic and Fairy for the reason above

[@adenisaacs1850]

I dunno. Adding in a sound type just feels pointless and is a bit too specific. I mean, literally everything makes sound, so how are you gonna decide who gets the type outside of obvious picks. There's also the problem that adding another type may not fix anything except ensuring a new top dog. We don't need to mess up the type chart by adding in yet another type. But hey, maybe I'm wrong.

[@KYLETISZAI]

Yep

[@omnii5818]

Everything can make sound, but not everything specializes in generating it It’s what makes fighting different from normal. Fighting types specialize in martial arts techniques

[@yurinabesima]

By this logic, every single Pokemon based on a mammal should be Normal since it is the classic "animal" type. What defines a Pokemon type is the main aspect that defines their design, and we have a ton of Pokemon whose main aspect is Sound.

[@Sai-pi4wq]

3:02 Sir, sound travels faster in solid objects TuT

[@megaplays2748]

The problem with replacing all pre existing sound based moves as Sound Type moves completely changes a bunch of them. It's easy to say "oh yeah Boomburst, Growl, and Uproar are just Normal so nothing is lost from them changing." But what about Clanging Scales and Clangorous Soul, both of which are Dragon type? Disarming Voice and Alluring Voice? Bug Buzz? Chatter? Overdrive? Sparkling Aria? The thought process behind Sound Type is so surface level that people never question why Gamefreak WOULDN'T do it other than "har har Gamefreak hates its fanbase." Neat video regardless

[@Uniquanators47]

Magic wouldn't be a good type in my opinion. What are 2 of the most common spells in fantasy? Fire & Lightning Edit: after seeing the moves you created i can see it's niche

[@Ankhaunt]

Sound makes so much sense. Think it as vibrations. Just how with perfect frequency sound you can break glass, same as for steel. And whats an earthquake it's vibrations underground between tectonic plates. Energy travels faster via medium with closely packed molecules. Sound Super effective on - Steel, ground, fire, water, electric. Sound resisted by - grass, rock, ice, ghost, bug since they are mostly air and air trapped inside them which is a bad conductor of sound. Types super effective on sound - grass, flying, psychic, bug, rock (they dampen the vibrations or doesn't care) Types not effective on sound - electric ( needs flow of electrons but vibrations acts a resistance) Ghost and ground (water if needed)

the word cyber means something to do with technology, ditto and mewtwo arent natural pokemon but the definitely dont have anything to do with technology. that would be like giving them the steel type or the electric type (lets be honest, cyber type would be just steel and electric combined) another name for the type could be the synth/synthetic type, because synthetic is exactly that, something that is not natural, and would fit a lot better with mewtwo and ditto while still being tied to technology in some cases.

I feel like people never think about the implications of a sound type. Moves like Grass Whistle aside, if you turn every sound move into the sound type, other types start to fall apart. As a few examples: -Bug either loses its main special attack or arbitrarily loses the benefit of throat spray for said move. -Liquid Voice would only serve to cut Primarina's STAB in half (funny enough, you'd need Liquid Voice for Sparkling Aria to be water type) -Overdrive only exists to give Toxtricity an electric move boosted by its ability, and if that was changed to sound, Toxtricity would immediately remove it in favor of a STAB sound-type boomburst.

[@FrederickRoux]

[@kent_s]

Not all dragons are Dragon type, not all those that can fly are Flying type, not all sound/music-themed need to have Sound type. For weaknesses and resistors, there’s Ice (winter means no noisy animals, no rustling of tree leaves. Snow dampens sound. Sound also travels in colder temperature). And Bug (most insects are deaf, this could even be an immunity) That’s the worst defensive type and the worst offensive type getting some nice buffs.

[@thecrazybee1907]

My take on type "Rubber" Re-typing: Ditto (Rubber), Bounsweet/Steenee/Tsareena (Grass/Rubber), Wynaut/Wobuffet (Rubber/Psychic), Donphan (Ground/Rubber), Gulpin/Swalot (Rubber/Poison), Spoink/Grumpig (Psychic/Rubber), Buizel/Floatzel (Water/Rubber), Pyukumuku (Rubber/Water), Xurkitree (Electric/Rubber), Clobbopus/Grapploct (Rubber/Fighting), Goomy/Sliggoo/Goodra (Dragon/Rubber). I tried not to make EVERY single flexible looking, slime or pink colored Pokemon Rubber type. New forms of existing Pokemon: Qwilfish (Water/Rubber, without spikes), Bonsly/Sudowoodo (pure Rubber, rubber tree version, defending against people who kept watering them), Voltorb/Electrode (Electric/Rubber, Super Ball version, double entendre), Azurill/Marill/Azumarill (Normal/Rubber, 80s aerobics excercise ball version), Drifloon/Drifblim (Rubber/Flying, party balloon version), Scraggy/Scrafty (Dark/Rubber, suspenders version), Ducklett/Swanna (Water/Rubber, rubber duck/swim ring version), Sandygast/Palossand (Rubber/Ground, bouncy castle version), Torountula/Spidops (Bug/Rubber, rubber band version), Tinkatink/Tinkatuff/Tinkaton (Fairy/Rubber, toy hammer version) Rubber on offense Super effective against: Dark (the idea here being that rubber sort of riducules the opponent, which the more self-serious/edgy dark type can't handle), Electric (supressing the electricity) Not effective against: Ice, Ground, Rock, Rubber (too hard or bounces off, also Ice needed a push) No effect against: Steel (way too hard) Rubber on defense Weak against: Fire (getting melted), Ice (getting brittle), Bug (getting eaten, plus bug got a lot of stinging/slicing moves, also Bug is in dire need of a push), Flying (getting blown away + same reasons as Bug) Resisting against: Rock, Fighting, Ground (attacks bounce off or are absorbed), Electric (resistance only, bc didn't want to make a second type immune) Immune against: Water (felt like we needed more defensive answers to the type, and it made sense from a physical standpoint) I didn't touch Fairy bc it didn't make sense to me, even though I know ppl would like to see a nerf to the type. And I didn't touch Poison, even though it'd make sense to me, bc I didn't want to make the type even more complicated than it already is)

In regards to something being Ground/Rock type being Redundant...im going to correct a thought process for everyone. It took me a long time to realize this but rock types are literal living rocks. Ground types are burrowing creatures. Creatures who sometimes live underground.

[@T0B3573R]

What I thought they could add that could unify most of these is an Artificial type, which would cover Cyber, Tech, Rubber, Plastic, etc. Then also they’re would be a Sound type that is resistant to Artificial type, and be super effective against it, since most man made stuff is an amplifier of sound. Then I’d have a Cosmic type, that would be immune to Sound, and also be Super effective against it, but it would be extremely weak against Artificial type, as human creations litter space as space junk, and also we make probes and spaceships to traverse space.

[@AdeptCharon]

I'm late to this video, but here are some counter arguments! "What about dual-type Pokémon, which type do you replace with Sound?" I don't think it's THAT hard to choose, it just takes some effort to look at the individual cases. For example: - Ludicolo: pro-Grass;hardly any lore about it mentions anything Water-related and it can breed mainly with other Grass-types, while also being very specifically a counterpart to the Seedot-line. Pro-Water: evolves with Water Stone, has Rain abilities/strategies. The rain aspects still remain relevant even without the Water type (think of Dhelmise not being a Steel type), and we've seen Pokémon evolve with elemental stones that do not directly match their type (Nosepass with a Thunderstone). Alternatively, and this goes for most other examples below, Ludicolo could stay Water/Grass, and instead a new Form of Ludicolo is introduced that IS Sound/Grass, with even more focus on Sound. - Vibrava: it's never learned tons of Dragon moves compared to Ground and sound-based moves. Easily Ground/Sound, which still gets to enjoy having access to Dragon moves anyway. Ground/Sound would also end the endless outclassing comparisons with Garchomp, as it would be a lot more distinct. - Toxtricity: a fun solution is in its gimmick! Toxel has two forms that it can evolve into, decided by its nature. So what if High Amped Form was Sound/Electric, while Low Key was Sound/Poison?

[@guilhermepires4446]

Sound is the one I like the most out of those 3, pokemon with 2 types already could get the dhelmise treatment and have a "third type" as an ability, but I dont think it works with the current type chart Magic wouldn't fit since special and physical is already a thing(yet meowscarada is a physical attaker for some god forsaken reason) Cyber just feels weird, its less of a type and more of a classification kinda thing, like egg groups and such, it doesn't make sense for it to take/deal more damage because it is artificial/fake Tbh, all 3 types suggested in this video are already in game some way or another, it becomes more of a "where do you draw the line" situation, if sound becomes a type, why shouldn't spores become a type? We have many mushroom inspired mons. Same for cyber, why dont we also get a mollusk type for all of those water mons that aren't water? The answer is that they already are in the water 1, water 2 and water 3 egg group, (I dont remember if there is a water 4) Returning to sound, magic and the forementioned spores, the answer is that they are merely the shape an attack takes, not the force that fuels the attack, lets take mythology for an example: If sound was a type, there would be no difference from the hypnotic voice of a mermaid and the voice of a regular human being. Back to pokemon, personally, I hate ground type, but their relationship to eletric, rock and steel makes them work, because its not that the attack is grounded, the attack is made from the ground, such as dirt that absorbs and dissipates electricity and overwhelming pressure that can destroy rocks and minerals Thoughts?

Nah Sound should be supereffective on psychic. hearing is one of your five senses, psychic type is related more to the mind and psyche, feelings, so on so forth. When you listen to music, when you hear a loud or scary noise, or when you hear someone make a funny joke, that changes your mood OR makes you feel a certain way or react a certain way cause your brain is literally reacting to the sound. That was worded like shit cause im tired but yeah. When you listen to a powerful sad song, you feel sad probably, when you listen to loud upbeat music you get pumped up, and when you listen to something complex or technical, it makes you sit and think about the composition (at least for me). Sound literally is one of those types that would dominate the psychic type

2:27 Honestly! No Joke! Since this year HToAZ was exactly what most of fans wanted.

[@MarshtompGames]

For Toxtricity: Let it keep the Electric/Poison type combo, but give it a new ability that's just Sound type Steelworker

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

Watch you inadvertenly bring back the Zubat line's infestation once the Sound types become relevant.

[@ronaldtaschner5183]

Icecream appears. Points at it, "CYBER TYPE"

[@Xatumi]

lolol

[@HalalKirbo]

I actually have other type idea that replace the sound type, which is music type, the music type is given to a pokemon that use their sound as music and not just random sound

[@ZenKrio]

As for Magic, you could easily look at Dungeons and Dragons for some inspiration. Magic could be a great type for causing various status effects with their unique attack, among others, examples of some moves: Magic Missile - This is your 2-5 hit move, technician would of course work here. Mystical Fire would be changed to Magic type, and would cause burn. Or it would be a Magic move thats also Fire type. Illusion - This is your Protect or Detect for Magic types. Mystical Chill - Weaker attack with a chance of Frostbite (which should return over Frozen) Witch's Brew - Throws a damaging cocktail that could poison thee target. Enchanted Binding - Like Magic's Wrap or Fire Spin. Magic Bolt - A Shot of Magical Lightning that may cause paralysis. Magical Terrain - Creates a field of Magical properties. It makes any Normal type moves and Pokemon become the /Magic type and increases all moves and power by 30%.

mana punch should have 3x the pp removed of the opponent that usses the move

[@Cybemon539]

I can see Ludicolo replace the Water-type for the Sound-type sense its design doesn’t entirely say “Water-type” outside of it being based on a Kappa, Vibrava, along with Flygon, could get rid of the Dragon-type sense it is known as the “Desert Spirit” and would more likely require the Ground-type over the Dragon-type, and Toxtricity could get rid of the Poison-type for the Amped form and the Electric-type for the Low Key form. If anyone wants to reply with another Pokémon that seems unclear to replace the Sound-type for another type that isn’t the Normal-type or add on to a single typed Pokémon, feel free to tell me.

[@billdeco08]

Good Mons to have the Sound typing added would be Jigglypuff/Wigglytuff line, Exploud Line, Noibat/Noivern line, Pyroar

[@MadProphetDraco96]

At exactly 1:32 who was that third pokemon after the Jigglypuff ?

How do you feel about a cosmic type? Pokémon who are digital or alien in nature would fit under this type. For example, Elgyem, clefairy, Jigglypuff, porygon, Deoxys, Ledian, Orbeetle, Dusknoir, and Minior. Cosmic would be weak to ground, rock, grass, and bug. Ground and rock because they are used to being in space and not used to the earth. Grass and bug because foreign life forms could be toxic to them. Those types would also resist cosmic type, giving bug, grass, and rock some more defensive boosts giving these types some more balance. Cosmic would be super effective against electric, steel, and fairy. Electric and steel because alien technology would already be superior, and fairy because futuristic sci fi contrasts with fairy tales. You could maybe make cosmic type super effective against dragon or ghost for similar reasons but I think it’s a bit of a stretch. Cosmic would also resist these types. Cosmic would get one more additional resist of ice. Ice is already a great offensive type, it’s just problematic defensively. That’s why I wouldn’t want to give ice another weakness, but having cosmic resist it is fine. The justification is that space is really cold and they should be used to it.

[@LIL_LEDI]

I feel like silvally would be normal cyber and the normal type would just change for the disks

[@toast_busters]

I think when we do eventually get a new type it's actually going to be something like what we just got with Stellar or something similar to Shadow: a complete and total gimmick. I just can't see them adding more types without completely reworking the type chart that exists as it is

[@joshuana5132]

One way to differentiate Fairy and Magic elements could be internal and external energy reserves, if that helps.

[@YagyaNagdonay]

Bro just forgot the stellar type

[@mananghildiyal2675]

I think cosmos type would be cool

[@Shyzun]

Remove bug and add normal as a weakness to cyber typing, because why not, humans are normal

[@ArmoredarmadilloX]

I think a crystal type could be neat. Strong against: rock, ghost, and maybe dark Resists: fire, ice, and fairy Weaknesses: Ground, steel, and lightning

[@Surepeacooler]

Magic wouldn't be a good type in my opinion. What are 2 of the most common spells in fantasy? Fire & Lightning

[@syan2240]

11:32 imagine using this in vgc with perishtrap teams That would be awful
