I'm a huge fan of Dark-type Pokémon, so I'd choose that.

Of course I choose dragon :) Unfortunately I've been having horrible memory issues and don't remember which Pokemon are on my UDT (Ultimate Dragon Team). Of course Salamence, being my number one favorite, and Dragalge to take care of those pesky Fairy-types, but I don't remember the others :oops:

I choose Dark type, but I am also very fond of some Fairy type and then Psychic. Pokémon Shield, half my team were Fairy type; Alcremie, Grimmsnarl and Galarian Rappidash. I ended up having a pretty tough time against the Steel types it kept throwing at me towards the end since the Frosmoth and Meowstic I also had on my team were also awful against Steel. My Inteleon being my best Pokémon against general Steel types.

Dark is my favourite, but I can't deny Pokémon like Mimikyu.

Most likely Dark, though Ground types are cool too.

I chose water because they've always been my faves, although since the introduction of fairy I've been really interested in that type too. :)

I had to choose water. I made a game in XD Gale of Darkness using only water Pokemon. I always choose the water starters. I also like many of the designs of water Pokemon as well. They are also very versatile so you get to play all kinds of different strategies.

I would specialize in Grass and Fairy too(Especially with Leafeon and Sylveon). But you only said one so water it is!

Would Krookodile be your signature?
I remember having one in Pokémon Black that I was particularly fond of, and still keep it among my favourite Dark types.

While I do have a soft spot for Ground and Dark, it will ultimately become a toss up between Grass and Water.
Maybe Water type.

When I was younger and playing red/gold a fun thing I used to do after beating the elite four for the first time was train up teams of other specific types, then go back and beat them again with each one. 8)

I adore the fire types. To me they often have the most colourful, striking sprites and best move graphics. Also many of my fav Pokemon are fire-type: Arcanine, Flareon, Ninetales, Chandelure, Magcargo

I've always found this to be both a great but difficult question for me, too many great types to choose from. Heracross is my favorite pokemon so I'm inclined to pick bug but I am also a fan of fighting types. May just pick fighting for the variety. Also a big fan of hitmonchan.

Water. I tend to pick water starters. however my favorite pokemon are all different types
some of my favorites are
Piplup/Empoleon
Squirtle/Blastiose
Torchic/Blaziken
Rowlet/Decidueye
Giratina
Bisharp
Anyway, I like water as an element better. In fact like 90% of my special interests involved water.
