What are the essential type of Pokémon?

I'll start
> grass water fire Starter
>Regional bird
>Regional mammal
>Pikachu clone

>Starting Bug

pseudo legendary too

>Pokeballs

Onahole mons seem like they might end up being a recuring kind of Pokemon. Same with Meowth regional variants.

>That one spooky Pokemon for that one small haunted location
>The obstacle Pokemon that blocks your path for whatever reason
>The end-of-the-dex Dragon one of the final bosses will use
>Inanimate object come to life
>A grass type that changes forms

A cute cat!

Two stage canine Pokémon
>Growlithe and Vulpix
>Houndour
>Poochyena
>Lillipup (Three stage but still)
>Rockruff
>Yamper

I want a game with these starters:
>Grass/Rock
>Water/Fighting
>Fire/Flying
I realize none of these are new type combos. But, they're fun because the fire, water, grass grass core can still check each other like usual, but now they're secondary typing are also a core that allow the FWG core to check back the type they're weak to. Basically two cores working inversely against each other to all cross check each other.

You forgot menetric

Bland pure water type fish

This works best with potential Unova starter megas IMO. Grass Flying Serperior, Fire Fighting Emboar, Water Rock Samurott.

The small cute off-dex legendary

Legendary trio but bonus points if it isn't the box cover Pokemon (i.e. Legendary birds, dogs, Regis, pixies, genies and musketeers)

Black & White didn't have any bug types until after the 2nd gym

I can be on board with that. They still all cross check each other and I'm very curious to see a quetzalcoatl inspired grass/flying serperior. Although it'd break theme, I still think it'd look awesome. Same for a samurott that utilizes something like coral for its armor and offensive weaponry, bolstering its atk and physical def.

Pair of Fossils

Humanoid duo

Talonflame > Corviknight > Swellow > Pidgeot > Toucannon > Noctowl > Staraptor > Unfezant

Thoughts?

ultimate expanded pokemon trope evolution line list & knuckles

ones we get pretty much every generation:
>3 stage grass fire water starter
>2 stage early game normal type mammal
>3 stage early game flying type bird
>3 stage early game bug type insect
>single stage electric type pikaclone
>at least 1 single stage standalone weirdo
>at least 1 pair of version exclusives
>3 stage dragon type pseudolegendary
>pair of cover legendaries
>a "3rd" legendary to said pair of cover legendaries
>at least 1 mythical, isn't always a part of the base game

general recurring concepts that don't always happen:
>2 stage early game dark type (usually a canine)
>2 stage dog in general
>2 stage grass type mushroom (happens every odd numbered generation)
>3 stage rock type (only happened 3 times)
>fossils (I WOULD say a pair of 2 stage rock types but the gen 8 ones shook things up so who knows what future fossils will be like)

I think Toucannon and Staraptor should be higher up the tier list. I think both are fun and cool-looking. Unfezant is in the right spot though.
