Definitely normal type. There are so many moves and possibilities plus you can hit pretty much any pkemon without it being resisted. There's even moves to take care of pesky ghost types. And only one weakness? That's awesome. Even though fighting is common, there are still so many moves and ways to kick butt. And let's not forget protect is normal type. And the strongest move(even though its suicide). Oh yeah, and cut & strength where'd you be without those! Probably back at route 4 or whatever trying to figure out how to get past a foot tall shrub. I like steel too though. The ultimate bulk and resistance type! Yes, it is weak to fighting, ground, and fire attacks, of wich there are a plethora of and they are pretty strong. So I probably prefer normal but I still adore doom desire and the addition of kings shield in XY.
Ps- ALL HAIL SPLASH!!!! The best move ever, AND NORMAL TYPE!
