I dont have a favorite type, i like to keep my team mixed (if you havent already noticed in my signature). It gives me more of an advantage because i can beat many different types.

Yes, having a mixed team is strategially wise. The way I make a mixed team is start with an ideal pokemon, then build around it with other pokemon that cover its weaknesses, and try to ends with all the weaknesses covered by either a type or certain moves.

Grass is actually one of my least favorit types. Mainly because it has the most weaknesses of any pure type. Though I have use some from time to time.

Yeah bug was practically useless in the first generation, though it has improved. On the other hand it couldn't have gotten any worse either.

Heracross is cool. Butterfree has compound eyes, which makes its powder moves more accurate. Scizor is definitely cool. I like Parasect for catching wild pokemon.

Unfortunately I think fire is falling by the wayside. There just doesn't seem to be very many of them compared to other types.

I love using steel types because there is so many types that are not very effective against it including normal, grass, bug, flying, ghost, dark, steel, psychic, and a couple more. I'm not saying it is effective against these types, im just saying they are "not very effective" against it.

So? They don't become worse as a type because there are less of them. There's still a fire type out there to fufill every need of a player.
Anyways, fire is among the best of the types. It doesn't have the restorative moves that grass, psychic, and water do, but fire types have the highest attack of all the types (Minus Dragons...?), making them indespensible when going for a winning team.

I hate steel types. I hate using them, I hate fighting them even more, and overall, I hate looking at them (Lucario being the exception- He's a steel type, right?). I can never get a powerful attack out of them, and fighting them is like murdering someone with a plastic spoon.

It's true about fire types. They are quite good, and I really like Infernape. As far as steel types go, you're doing something wrong. Steel types I believe are meant to be tankish. Not sweepers. Although a bullet punch from Scizor after sword dance can sweep quite well.

They're defensive pokemon. Some people do prefer sweepers, though, so steels aren't for everyone.

I hate pokemon that can't dish out major damage. For me, if it takes me more than five turns to take down a pokemon, whatever I'm using sucks. I like playing the game as if I'm always using Kadabra: Take down the enemy as fast as possible to avoid taking damage, because I'm screwed when I get hit.

I've never actually trained a Psyduck or Golduck, but I do like Golduck.
