Pokémon: These 17 wild type combos don’t exist yet – but maybe in the future

Maybe we’ll see some of these new type combinations in crimson and purple.

As is well known, Pokémon can not only belong to a single type, but can even combine two types. For example, Charizard is a fire-flying Pokémon, you know.
