>THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH NEW TYPES
There is, its called feature creep or bloat. Tell me anon, does it excite you when you find a romhack that has like 32 different types in an otherwise simple as hell videogame, because i can assure you that many people arent really looking for that experience nor does a game NEED to include new things for the sake of it. Dark and Steel came to be for balance, Fairy was a mistake but followed the same logic, adding more types will bring about inconsistencies than "fix" anything at this point. Dont ask for the wrong things (more types) ask for the right things (better overall games)

Dark types embody "dirty fighting" You bite, steal things, smack away something someone's holding, you faint attacks, its all like that, moves that are "unfair in reality" this is why Fighting is super effective against it, to illustrate how evil doers get owned by the good guys who do honest fighting.
