Light would be strong agianst Dark, Ghost, Fire, and Water.
Light would be weak against Ice, grass, and poison
Light attacks would be weak against grass, and water, while being completely useless on ice.
Light would be resistant against electric, fire and dark



hey how about light has no effect against ice! So ice can actually be used defensely. I mean light goes through ice right?

That is exactly what I meant lol. Ice will be immune to dark. Ice overall as a type is very unbalanced it is strong against too many attacks and resistant to too few.

Grass is powerfull against many types and weak against many types. Dark is powerfull against few, and weak agains few. Therefore it would screw up the balance, unless they in some way manage to work around it.

 

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Grass_(type)

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dark_(type)

Poison type has two weaknesses (Ground and Psychic) and only one type it's powerful against (Grass). Meanwhile, it has four resistances and four types that resist it, and one type that is immune to it.

By comparison, Dark type has two weaknesses, two types it's powerful against, two types it resists, and three types that resist it, and one type it's immune to.

If Poison isn't unbalanced, why would an additional weakness for Dark types unbalance it? Especially since they could easily modify the type chart a bit to maintain the balance.

Why fix it if it ain't broken? 

 

Sorry, I don't have the time to elaborate more right now :p

maybe his favorite pokemon is spiritomb or sableye and if light type is true then instead of no very effective moves it has will become Quad X Super effective from Light?

Well, if my idea actually turns out to be right, there'd be no real need for Ghost to be weak to the new type.

My idea was Moon (or Lunar) type. Not only are there quite a few pokemon that are suited to the Moon type (especially those that evolve by Moonstone) as well as moves, but it would be more interesting in terms of type resistances and weaknesses.
