Double Same-Type Pokemon

Hi! I've been away from the forum for a few years but I missed the place! I had an idea. Couldn't there be elemental Pokemon which are, say, fire/fire type? They could be balanced because all their strengths and weaknesses would be doubled.
 
Doesn't seem to make much sense from an in-universe perspective. How could something be double on fire? 200% plant?
 
This just wouldn't happen.. Think about it in normal animals. People would look weird if you'd say that a particular elephant looked like an elephant. That in my eyes is the same as saying that a fire-type has fire-type character traits and thus has to be fire/fire-type. It just means it's close to the core traits of the typing and that should warrant it being a pure type instead.
