Alright, I don't want to keep this debate up, it's kind of pointless.
All I'm going to say is that the type distribution for Kalos 'when taken with the other generations' is fine, and it works well to supplement types that in other gens may not be as plentiful. When taken on its own, however, I personally found it disappointing because types such as Water specifically had pretty much no Pokemon that I wanted and could put on my team, since I only wanted to use the new Pokemon. And even then, it wasn't a massive issue to me since I ended up with a diverse team in the end even if it didn't include the types I wanted. In other words, if you're only using new Pokemon, you're more likely to be disappointed in Kalos than someone who wants to use the old ones as well. My point wasn't necessarily that the lack of certain types was a crippling flaw with Kalos, but that the lack of Pokemon in types where they are usually plentiful (particularly in the case of Bug where the only line fills a particular role rather than something unique) could cause an effect of there seemingly being less Pokemon overall.
