As we all know, Misty generally stuck to water types throughout her run. Other than Togepi (and strangely Azurill, who is a normal type for some reason), she had all water pokemon.
Brock strayed from his rock type routes almost immediately. After Geodude and Onix, the only other rock Pokemon he ever got was Bonsly/Sudowoodo. His Pokemon were all varied otherwise, such as Vulpix, Crobat, Foretress, Ludicolo, Marshtompt, Croagunk, Happiny, etc.
Iris only has one dragon, and it doesn't seem like the writers have any intention of giving her a team full of dragons. Cilan also has a variety of types.
Do you think the writers felt a character with all pokemon of the same type isn't interesting? It makes me wonder why Misty was the only one to be like that, and every other character had a variety of types and pokemon.
