What is, theoretically, the best typing possible?
Meaning least weaknesses, most immunities and resistances, and most effective STAB(The typings that has the most effectiveness.) Not including Wonder Gaurd(Because that cuts out at least like 10 types), please include Abilities.

Best offensive types:Ice and Ground combo & Ghost and Fighting combo.if we count single types:> I think if you count only single types, then ice fighting is just as good as ice ground.
Let me explain why. Ice and ground together & Ice and fighting are super effective on a huge total of8 types!Almost half of the total number of types! Only mamoswine line has this great typing. Ghost and fighting has the unique advantage of not being resisted byany type comboon its STAB moves as Ghost and normal doesn’t exist yet! Only marshadow has this unique typing.
Best Defensive types:Well there’s no exact. It completely depends on how much hp, Def and S.Def the mon has. If you want the only one weakness ones, here:Normal (only weak to Fighting)Electric (only weak to Ground)Normal Ghost (only weak to Dark)Water Ground (only weak to freeze dry and grass)Poison Dark (only weak to Ground)Bug Steel (only weak to fire)Ghost Dark (only weak to Fairy)Most resistances:
Also steel electric has the most resistances, regardless of whether immunities count as resistances.commented 59 minutes ago by sumwun
and as already mentioned by previous answer, Electross family has no weakness with levitate ability but can be defeated by mold breaker ability mons with ground moves such as excadrill.Hope I Helped!
If you want a Pokemon that actually has NO WEAKNESSES, you will turn to the only possible option: the Tymano family. They are a family of electric types with the ability levitate, which makes them immune to ground moves. This can be avoided, however, with a Pokemon that has the ability mold breaker. Well, no one usually pays attention to abilities, however, and what are the chances where your opponent will switch into their mold breaker Excadrill to deal with your Eelectross with ground moves, assuming they have one? And Eelectross' stat’s aren’t even that bad!
On another note, the electric/steel type combo boasts some incredible 11 resistances/immunities, meaning some moves do little to no damage against them. Unfortunatly, it electric/steel has a bunch of weaknesses that leave it in the dust.
On yet ANOTHER note, pure steel types have an incredible 10 weaknesses and one immunity, making them on just the same level as the electric/steel guys.
On the side, Mamoswine, Terrakion, Scrafty, and a lot of other Pokemon all have good STAB moves that are important, I couldn’t just name one!
