One of the types a lot people expect to be real one day is the Light Type, to be the polar opposite of Dark Type. So the inclusion of this type was a no-brainer.

​

However, Light Type is more than that. In Azurite, Light Type focus more on support and recovery. While there are still enough offensive options for Light Type Pokémon, you'll find that their niche is more based around supporting other Pokémon or themselves, being unmatched in the recovery category.
