Just to help you out, I'm going to tell you what we'd like for our Pokédex right now so I don't have to reject any stuff I like.

Difference/Most Need;
Ground: -9.74% - more needed
Water: -9.73% - more needed
Psychic: -7.18% - more needed
Bug: -5.56% - more needed
Poison: -4.78% - more needed
Normal: -3.73% - more needed

Key;
Dark green - in great need of
Lime green - need more of
Red - need less of
Maroon - banned
So, as you can see, that's not too even, is it? If you take a look at the games, there aren't many Fire or Dragon types at all, and loads of Normal types!
Most importantly, looking at the sort of Pokémon we've already got accepted, here's what I'd like to see;
If you make one of the above, it'll pretty much be gauranteed acceptance.
1. Make it a good idea.
2. Have a good sprite (even if you have to get help)
3. Pick one from my list above.
4. Make it different to the ones already accepted.
5. Use the types which no-one's used yet! (If you look at the list above, Pokémon of the types coloured in dark green are more likely to be accepted).
Good luck, everyone!

Most importantly, looking at the sort of Pokémon we've already got accepted, here's what I'd like to see;
- Humanshape Pokémon
- Mineral Pokémon
- Rodent Pokémon
- Bipedal (two legs)
- A fish?
- Bugs
- Your own inventive shapes! Do the legs have to be at the bottom? Does it have to have one head? Just be creative!
