    I'm sure people have a specific move they absolutely love to use with each type, even if they hate the actual type.
    If there is a type that you loathe entirely, then say it next to the type. And don't be afraid to put a popular move if it is.

    Bug: Bug Bite
    Dark: Night Slash
    Dragon: Dragon Rush
    Electric: Thunder Wave
    Fighting: Force Palm
    Flying: Fly
    Ghost: Shadow Sneak
    Grass: Leaf Blade
    Ground: Bulldoze
    Ice: Blizzard
    Normal: Rock Climb
    Poison: Toxic
    Psychic: Psycho Cut
    Rock: Stone Edge
    Steel: Iron Tail
    Water: Water Pulse

    Edit: Wow, how did I manage to forget fire.
    Fire: Flame Wheel

    Bug: X-Scissor (Solid bug type attack that lots can learn, helped to round out mah boy Sandslash)
    Dark: Night Slash (Awesome move, high crit ratio, my Sniper Drapion made excellent use of it)
    Dragon: Outrage (O, the power)
    Electric: Thunderbolt (The staple electric move, can be learned by many, can't go wrong)
    Fighting: Brick Break (It's my go-to solid fighting type choice)
    Flying: Air Slash (Solid move with a flinch chance, I like it)
    Ghost: Shadow Claw (Solid ghost attack, also helped round out my beloved Sandslash)
    Grass: Petal Dance (It's the grass version of Outrage. Helped immensly in the mono-grass E4 challenge I did for the medal just recently)
    Ground: Earthquake (The ground type move)
    Ice: Ice Beam (Can't have Thunderbolt on the list and not Ice Beam)
    Normal: Swords Dance (Great boost for any physical attacker. Very useful)
    Poison: Sludge Bomb (It's the poison version of the move Psychic)
    Psychic: Psychic (This is the number one staple move I teach any special attacker that can learn it. Maybe Gen 1 biased me towards it but I love it.)
    Rock: Rockslide (Classic move, multiple targets.)
    Steel: Gyro Ball (Mixed with Curse on my Platinum version Steelix, this move is just great.)
    Water: Surf (Solid staple water type useful in battle and out, can't go wrong.)

    Bug: Signal Beam; pretty and a solid move~
    Dark: Dark Pulse; Just a very nice and mysterious move I love to always have somewhere on my team.
    Dragon: Draco Meteor; Looove the animation, and even though its accuracy isn't perfect, I still really like it. Dragon Rush is cray too.
    Electric: Thunderbolt; High power, perfect accuracy, change of paralyzing. Such a great move! I also love Discharge but it gets in the way in double battles.
    Fighting: Aura Sphere; I adore this move! I typically don't like fighting types, but Aura Sphere is more pretty than physical.
    Flying: Brave Bird; Bahh I don't know why I like this attack so much, I usually don't like those super powerful with drawbacks moves, but I've always liked Brave Bird.
    Ghost: Shadow Ball; Again, a solid move with high power and perfect accuracy.
    Grass: Petal Dance; I love a lot of Grass moves, and I almost said Energy Ball, but Petal Dance just makes me think of a Pokémon dancing all pretty like and I've always thought this move was awesome.
    Ground: Earthquake; Ah, how can I not say EQ? It's arguably one of the best moves in the entire game. It's flawless, except for hitting your teammates in double battles. Since it feels like a given, I'll name my second favorite: Earth Power. Even though I got killed by it a lot in Explorers of Time/Sky.
    Ice: Ice Beam; Obv. I also like Aurora Beam because it's pretty.
    Normal: Metronome; Ahaha this is a hard one! There are so many normal type moves... If Metronome doesn't count, I also love Tri Attack. And Return for just pure power.
    Poison: Toxic; Pretty much the only poison type move you'll ever see on my teams... xD
    Psychic: Psychic! Amazing move, one of my favorite moves ever. I love Calm Mind as well.
    Rock: Power Gem. Pokémon needs better rock moves ;P
    Steel: Flash Cannon; I would love Iron Tail if it weren't for the low accuracy. I'd even take lower power for better accuracy... but for now my favorite is the out-of-the-ordinary special based one like normal ;P
    Water: Scald. Not sure why, I just really love it.

    YOU GUYS FORGOT MY FAVORITE TYPE ;c

    Fire: Heat Wave; I don't know why. Nice memories I guess. And of course Flamethrower is amazing. I also love love LOVE Fiery Dance (you sexy beast Volcarona)

    And I guess it's too early to say our favorite Fairy move... Fairy Wind and Moonblast look cool though.

    Oh wow, how did I not notice Fire wasn't on the list?

    Fire: Lava Plume (High power special attack with a cool concept and animation. Just wish more Pokémon could learn it.)

    [​IMG] U-Turn (good for momentum and stuff)
    [​IMG] Either Crunch or Dark Pulse (I couldn't choose; Crunch has a cool animation in Colosseum and it's useful for physical Darks whereas Dark Pulse is handy for specials)
    [​IMG] Either Draco Meteor or Outrage or Dragon Dance (Former options are powerful and DD is an awesome set up move)
    [​IMG] Thunderbolt (standard move to use for specials)
    [​IMG] Drain Punch (Cause healing is nice with decent power to boot; would be Hi Jump Kick but it's just eh)
    [​IMG] Flare Blitz (Awesome move for phys. Pokes and sick animation in BW2)
    [​IMG] Brave Bird (Cause it's awesome and deals tons of damage to boot)
    [​IMG] Shadow Ball (I guess it's good for Ghosties)
    [​IMG] Leech Seed (Useful move, often the opponents could switch out and it steals HP too)
    [​IMG] Earthquake (nuff said)
    [​IMG] Ice Beam or Ice Punch (Both good moves)
    [​IMG] Protect (A turn for scouting/protecting/stalling is nice)
    [​IMG] Toxic (Almost every Poke learns this and handy for dealing more damage each turn)
    [​IMG] Psyshock (Useful against Special Walls)
    [​IMG] Stealth Rock (Best entry hazards ever)
    [​IMG] Iron Head (Steel type moves don't appeal to me so I picked a move where a Poke turns their head into IRON)
    [​IMG] Surf or Scald (Decent damage and stuff; Scald's handy for a burn chance)
