Starter pokemon, always the same.
1 fire type
1 grass type
1 water type
you always choose a pokemon first, then your rival always gets the one that yours has a waekness to.
just sameole, sameole. Make it something new!
Well here's what I propose:
1. Different types that are also composed of a "circle of weaknesses" namely:
Dark
Phychic
Fighting
2. You still choose first, but the rival's choice is at random.
3. You fight the first battle as normal, send out the pokemon, attacks are all normal types...the usual. But after the match, you see "The games Bill" rush in.
Remember back to the old days, as in red and blue. (I know, it's hard. :P) Does "Bills teleporter" ring a bell? :P
Well the techno guy (whoever it may be) goes to talk to the professor. (probably Pine. :P)
Bills teleporter has been re-discovered, and he needs a test subject.
Well, being curious, both you and your rival volunteer, travel to the next city, and test it.
Needless to say, it works. and in summary, you become your starter pokemon. Then you go around as that pokemon and do the adventure. You can still hold six pokemon, so you basically have 7. You evolve like a pokemon, and can fight in your matches.
there is also one other like you and your rival though...the champ, of course. (first 7 on 7 match ever)
Well I think it's genius, but what do you think?
(I'd always be the dark type. XD
second fav. type)
... You know... That actually sounds really cool. I'd definitely try that game. =O
Good idea, but Dark/Fighting/Psychic fails due to Psychic being unable to touch Dark.
good point... :(
There's another trio type out there...Just let me think of one. :P
"The only possible starter triangles (i.e. three types that are weak to one another in a rock-paper-scissors fashion and the same with resistances in reverse) other than the traditional Fire/Water/Grass are Rock/Fighting/Flying, Fire/Rock/Steel and Grass/Poison/Ground."

What? If you're saying that there's no other perfect type-triangles, look back at my last post.
If you're saying that none of the types you mentioned match up, you're still wrong, as Fighting beats Ice.

1. No I'm not saying that
2. Yes fighting pwns ice, but that's the point, look: Fire AND Ice pwn grass, Water pwns Fire and Fighting pwns Ice, and Grass AND Electric pwns Water
So yeah :P

you could have a pokemon that has like red stripes on one side and blue on the other
whatever hand they use performs that type
with both hands combined they perform the ulitmate attack Fire and Ice

I was thinking a Puppy (Fire only) to Dog (Fire-Ice) to a Wolf (Fire-Ice [Duh])

HA! I KNEW whatever you were typng about was wrong! [/coincidental sarcastic gloating privilege]
Actually, I like what they did in D/P: every starter could beat every other starter.
Example: Torterra beats Empoleon w/ grass and Infernape w/ ground, Empoleon beats Infernape w/ water and Torterra w/ ice, and Infernape beats Torterra w/ fire and Empoleon w/ fighting.

I didn't say he was ice type, I said he could beat Torterra with Ice. This can be done via Ice Beam, Blizzard, and I think maybe Avalanche.
Oh, and I don't know if I mentioned this earlier, but I do NOT want another Fire/Fighting EVER AGAIN!!!!!!! Two gens in a row is plenty for such a specific type combination for starters (although it's fine to have multiple pures in a row, seeing as how if it's not Fire, Water, or Grass, it's not a starter). I think there should be a new combo for a fire starter... Like a Fire/Psychic!
*laughs maniacally as the new Fire/Psychic starter obliviates the annoying Fire/Fighting starters*

Fire-Ice would be cooler.
