Description
EDIT: This is a revamped version after USUM and some change in preference.

It includes some general retcones that I feel would be a nice touch (like Blastoise being Steel type, or giving Golduck the obvious Psychic type etc.)

Old text:
I've been contemplating all the half-way plausible types that could be added.

First individually, polishing the concept, name, figuring out what the core point of it would be, analyzing whether there is existing candidates that would be retconned, and whether there would be too many complications etc. Given some basic thought on their match-ups (since they should at least make the type chart more balance rather than worse)

The viable candidates (some non-obvious aspects) I have found are the following:
-Wind (speed, lightweight, gusts/storms, damage with indirect contact, spreading substances in the air)
-Aquatic (creatures that live underwater, swimming/diving skills, good at battles in water)
-Sound
-Plastic (undefined/variable body structure, can be deformed, rubber/elastic/polymer, artificial material)
-Cosmic (alien, space-themed, wishmaking)

This picture is merely the resulting retcons for the existing 802 PKMN.
I tried to keep each new type at an interesting amount, while also not going too far (like changing everything that has even just a minor connection to the concept)

I'll probably make pictures for each added type separately as well. That's where I'll go into detail on what the point of each type is.
