How do you categorize the monsters? Do you just look at the names and choose based on vibe? Or is there some kind of an abridged description for each type?

I based my categorization based on looks and attacks. For example I gave fire type to the arch vile because of his annoying fire explosion attack thing.

I'd say most if not all would be Dark type to some degree, exceptions would be caco (Elec/Fly or Fire/Fly), archie (Fire/Psych), lost soul (Fire/Fly), revenant (Fire/Fight), the arachnotron (Elect/Steel), and manc (Fire/Steel). Most would be pure Dark (all former humans, demons, spectres), Fire/Dark (imps, hell nobles, maybe PE because it shoots lost souls), or Steel/Dark (cyber and SMM). Ghost monsters would of course be Ghost and whatever would be the more appropriate dual type.

Lost Souls - Flying/Fire
Hell Knights/Barons - Dragon*
Arch-Vile - Dark/Fire
Pain Elemental - Dark/Flying
Cyberdemon - Steel/Dragon
Spider Mastermind - Steel/Psychic

 

*Because in the Pokemon games, Dragon frequently has fire-breath attacks except that they're in a viridian color palette. The type also has delusions of grandeur as to how "regal" it is.

Based on my out-dated knowledge of Pokemon and relative logic, I'd view the Doom II enemies as...

  • Former Humans - Normal (they're very basic - failing that, don't give them a "type" as they're people - logically they could have an evolution chain if not)
  • Imp - Fire (pretty clear-cut here)
  • Demon - Normal (cases could be made for Fighting or Dark, but their very basic "animal" design leads me in this direction)
  • Spectre - Ghost (or Ghost/Fighting or Ghost/Dark if the Demon is one of the above - probably a straight evolution from a Demon)
  • Lost Soul - Fire/Ghost (or Fire/Flying, if you don't have them as translucent in your port of choice - argument could be made for just Fire, which I go into below)
  • Cacodemon - Electric/Flying (you could swap Flying for Psychic, as they're levitating rather than flying, or Electric for Poison if you follow the Doom 2016 lore of their projectile being psychosomatic goop. Hell, going by Koffing, Geodude or Magnemite, you'd not need to mention Flying when it's just levitation, so it could just be Electric or Poison)
  • Hell Knight and Baron of Hell - Poison (they throw slime as their primary attack - pretty clear-cut IMO. Maybe chuck in Fighting because of how ripped they are, but then you have to look at the Demon, Imp and Cyberdemon along the same lines)
  • Revenant - Ground/Fighting (Ground because they're bones, fighting because of the punching. I'd accept Steel/Fighting too, with the armoured chest)
  • Arachnotron and Spider Mastermind - Psychic/Steel (big brains and a metal chassis, plus the SMM was meant to have a psychic attack way back when... Hence the abilities in 2016. Another logical evolution chain)
  • Mancubus - Fire (I guess some Snorlax-style defence and health stats would be justified by the bulk)
  • Arch-Vile - Psychic/Fire (Definitely fire, but the "magic" aspect needs some justification, so Psychic. I gather there is a "Fairy" type now, but as I know nothing more than that, I can only speculate that it might have healing powers and therefore be worth swapping in for Psychic)
  • Pain Elemental - Fire/Flying (like with the Cacodemon, swap Psychic in for Flying if you think it's levitation they're doing (or don't include it at all). The Lost Soul spitting thing is one of those Pokedex flavour text things in this case and this would probably be an evolution from the Lost Soul)
  • Cyberdemon - Steel (It's partially metal, otherwise I'd be thinking "Normal" as it has no elemental powers to speak of)

 

As they're all monsters from Hell, "Dark" would probably be sufficient, plus whatever element their attack or appearance most closely approximates to as well, where appropriate

Zombieman + Shotgunner + Chaingunner + SS - Pure Normal

Arachnotrons - Bug and Steel

I feel like the dark imp should be … you know… a dark type? Also, I choose baron.
