Description
Not just about fish (the insect type is also simply called Bug and even includes spiders). It's about aquatic PKMN and those that live in water and are good at battling in it.Related content

Hmmm Palkia, Lugia, Wimpod, Bibarel, Buizel, Spheal, Seel, Surskit, Corsola, Binacle, Lapras, Maerenie, Golduck, Krabby and Shellder should all just be their normal types. As being Fish Type is a bit too much and not really what they are (since they're crustaceans and or mammals/animals).Β

The concept for the type is supposed to a bit wider than just "literally fish". So it includes creatures that are good at surviving deep underwater even if they're not fish, but it also includes superior water-related skills like diving and swimming.
I know the name seems inaccurate in that case... and I did use to call the type "aquatic" in the past. But I decided that it sounds too scientific, while most types are super simple words that a kid would understand. So for example the Bug type doesn't ONLY include "bugs", it is actually more of a general insect-type, and includes things like scorpions and spiders.

I do like the idea for this type, as a means of reducing the overabundance of Water-types. Are you going to post the type effectiveness as well?

Didn't get around to doing it till now xD
I tried to keep it defensively very unique compared to Water.
And also sort of complementary with Water (meaning if you combine the two types, a bunch of weaknesses and resistances cancel each other out)
Water and Fish moves would be strong against similar types though.. sort of how Dark and Ghost are also good against the same types (though those two are way too similar offensively IMO)

Oh, seems like I have XD
(Would stay a Water PKMN of course)

And I thought sand type was unnecessary. Half of these aren't even fish.

Sand type was a lot more unnecessary
The "Fish" type doesn't mean it has to be a fish. I just picked the name fish instead of aquatic this time, because I felt it was a less complex word.
Because half the Bug types aren't literal bugs either, with the type being more about insects in general, as well as arachnids for example.
Also, not all Dragon types are dragons and not all dragons are Dragon types

Well at least you acknowledge the ridiculousness.

I agree with Meglind. Fish-type is totally redundant when there is Water-type, which fits the best to describe all Pokemon that are living in the rivers, lakes, seas, simply are closely related to the water.

There is a ridiculous amount of Water types. This type basically splits Water in two halves.
One half is about Water as an element, while the other is about being a creature that lives in water, which can be exclusive on a lot of PokΓ©mon.
So you have a lot of fish that don't use Water as their element of attack, or hardly even learn any Water moves,
but you also have some PKMN that do not live in water and just have Water as an element to attack with, like Suicune, Simipour..
I'll replace the image with one that shows both types in a minute actually, because this feels incomplete anyway xD

I understand the logic behind it, but Water type was always the most numeorus, because there is the most lifeforms living in the water, sicne 2/3 of the planet is filled with water

I think the Water type is more than enough; this would be unnecessary.

But that's the thing.. it's not just more than enough.. there is too much of it, with like 130 PKMN being Water types and a third of them don't even really use Water, they just live in it or know how to swim in it.

In that case, it should be clarified that said do not have the type Water live near it have any ability that gives them any advantage such as swimming or being resistant to water, without needing to be in the first place. That is the reason why there are skills; just because Gamefreak does a pretty bad job in that department, it's not my fault. In fact, many artists who draw Pokemon / Fakemon often create new skills from time to time for some of their creations, and it's great. I think you're trying to create new types when it's not necessary and in the process you created a lot of confusion, even if that was not your intention. And now we are dictating about that very thing here.
