Every type has major (dis-)advantages. That's not the reason why there are many powerful ukaku's...

Well, first of all we have Yoshimura and Eto. Yoshimura was a pwoerful ghoul, yeah. Eto became one because of him, because of the cirsumstances back then, since he left her at the 24th ward as a baby. her only options were to die or to become extremely strong, it was pretty much forced. Takizawa is a result of Yoshimura's kagune being transplanted into him, so basically we've got our three most powerful ukaku's due to Yoshimura.

Except of that, other powerful ukaku's would be Ayato, Touka, Yomo, Irimi and (most likely) Hikari Kirishima.

As for Rinkaku's, we have Kaneki/Haise of course, pretty much one of the strongest characters here. Also we had Yamori (the story made him seem pretty weak imo, but he was very strong). And Rize is there too (according to our current informations, she seems to be even stronger than Yamori). And don't forget about Hinami and Roma (most likely). Plus Matsumae seems to be impressive too, considering that her kagune has a very great density and deffensive power (since rinkaku-types usually have very brittle kagune).

So I wouldn't say that ukaku types are that much stronger than other types. Also the theory that "ukaku types are stronger because they are naturally weak and therefore try harder to become strong" is somehow a contradiction. If that was the case, then other types would see ukaku's as a major threat, eventually they would start searching for power even more, and in the end they would be much stronger than ukaku's again.

Powerful koukaku's would be Tsukiyama, therefore also Naki, Arata and Hinami (again). And nutcracker of course. There's not that much to say, there seriously aren't that many strong ones, but remember that the manga will go on for a longer period.

Well, powerful bikaku's would be Shachi of course, Big Madam, Nutcracker (also again), Koma and Miza.

Nishio too, of course. Nishio is actually a pretty interesting case, considering this post. He was always strong, compared to an average ghoul. That's been said even by ghouls who hated him. But as you remember, before :re, he was no match for our other strong friends. He truly became powerful when he appeared in :re for the first time, because of his enhanced abilities, especially his kagune. So: he saw the need to become much stronger, and he obviously trained hard for it. Although he#s a bikaku-type.

It's pretty much balanced, ther is no "stronger/weaker" type in TG. Rinkaku's have a high regenerative ability and huge raw strenght, but their kagune can be broken easily. Fights between them tend to be bloody, their regenerative power is just balancing their weak deffense. Ukaku's can attack from a high range and are able to finish the enemy off fast, but their stamina is low. Balanced. Same goes to the koukaku's, who have an extremely dense kagune which gives them a nearly unbreakable shield, eventually being very heavy and hard to handle. Also balanced. And bikaku's are pretty unpredictable, as they have no real  advantage, nor a disadvantage. They are suited to fight with so many styles and pull out aces once they're cornered.

Every RC-type has a weakness, gives you a handicap which you have to overcome. And none of them is sup- or inferior to any other.
