    Outside of battling and tactics, do you have a favorite type based just on the styles of its Pokémon species? Like the Fairy-types and their adorableness or Rock-types and their roughness?

    ~~~

    My favorites based on their style is probably either Steel or Dark.

    Steel has such a wide variety of styles in its reach, mostly tough and battle-ready like Scizor and Aggron, but there's also some reach towards more cute examples like Jirachi and Mawile. They're designed to be so practical for battle but can still be so photogenic in many cases. Plus some of the non-animals there are among the most interesting designs: Ferrothorn, Metagross, Bisharp. So many unique designs!

    Dark, on the other hand, has so many species that tend to be just so chill and relaxed I want to buy a black leather jacket and some sunglasses and just hang out with them outside the Dark-type gym that should totally exist somewhere. I'm talking Greninja, Honchkrow, Cacturne. Especially Krokorok, whose very persona seems to be "Hey! I could knock you out if I wanted to, but you seem cool, let's go to the club and pick up some chicks or pick a fight with some thugs, your choice."

    Overall I'd have to say I love the design of Steel Types. Pokémon like Bisharp, Metagross, Aegislash, Lucario, Scizor, Mawile and Heatran just look amazing to me. Quite a lot of my least favourite designs are steel types as well, like Klefki, Probopass and Klinklang, but overall I'd say that if it's a steel type it more than likely has a nice design.

    Water types! I love the designs of the Pokémon. Considering all the places where Water Pokémon live, I think it's quite a challenge to make them distinctive yet appear like one group. I think Pokémon did a wonderful job on that!

    I quite like the designs of most ghost Pokémon. The look of wispy, gaseous and floaty Pokémon just feel really cool to me. Haunter is one of my favourite Pokémon for its design alone. I think the only ghost designs I don't really like are Gengar, Dusclops and Gourgeist, because they aren't any of the above qualities with the exception of Gengar being gaseous.

    Water types, there are many kinds of designs I love like Feraligator,Greninja, Lapras, Vaporeon etc. Flying types, I'm a big fan of bird-based designs so this type also really appeals to me. And finally Steel types, many of faves come from here including Scizor, Mawile, Metagross, Skarmory.

    I like steel and electric types quite a bit, because I think they are the coolest looking types. The electric type has Pokémon such as Electivire and Jolteon while the steel type has Metagross, Skarmory, and Aggron. Neither of these is my favorite type (grass is), but I still like these types simply based off of design. That's kind of funny considering I typically base this sort of thing by how well they work in-game.

    Bug is my favorite when it comes to style... which is really strange for me. If you don't know, I'm terrified on bugs in real life yet for some nonsensical reason I love the way Bug type Pokémon look. I can't explain it... I just do.

    Fire and Electric types! I think most little fire-type are just adorable and Ninetales is one of my favorites. I like the designs of Luxray, Jolteon, Zebstrika and many others since they look so fierce.

    I really like normal types! They're so cute and some are derp, but that's what makes them great.

    Maybe because a lot of them look awesome, like Heracross, Volcarona, Scyther, etc., while bugs IRL are mostly just... creepy.

    When it comes to designs, I love a good majority of Grass-types. Many are cute, like Celebi, the Whimsicott line, Shaymin, and the Jumpluff line, some are elegant, like Roserade, Leafeon, and the Serperior line, and others are just plain cool to look at, like Torterra, the Sceptile line, Shiftry, and even Rotom-Mow (Who I think is the best-looking Rotom form, personally.)

    First thing that came to my mind was Water. Some of my favourites are water type (Samurott, Milotic, Swampert, Feraligatr, Starmie) but now that I think about it, I kinda like Dark type designs quite a lot. Some examples being Hydreigon, Weavile, Honchkrow, Sableye, and Tyranitar
