The Ten Outer Element Wheels
The Ten Outer Elements are combinations of the Five Primal Elements (Minus the Soul which is a combination of all five) merged together.

Grass: Combining the Flow of life of water with the Source of life of ground, it is the primal source of all living things living together in harmony, the delicate and fragile heartbeat of the planet itself and its lifeforce.
Original called 'Mana' or 'Lifestream', named Grass Type by Pokemon Scientists.
Legendary Associated: Celebi, Shaymin

Dragon: Born out of the great powers of fire and the mastery of the air, a Dragon is a great Pokemon beast who inspires awe in its brethren. Many of the great legendary beasts of old are found under its protection.
Original called 'Legendary Lord', 'Great Lord' or just 'Lord', named Dragon Type by Pokemon Scientists due to many looking like the ancient beasts.
Legendaries Associated: Latias, Latios, Rayquaza, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Dialga, Palkia

Electric: Harnessing the raw power of Air, creating a bridge right down to the ground below. It merges both to become an element that is wild, powerful and completely unstable.
Legendaries Associated: Raikou, Zapdos

Steel: Forged from the ground and fire, it is an element that strikes hard and merges fire's tenacity with ground's pure strength to become an element that is impenetrable.
Legendary Associated: Registeel, Heatran

Rock: The spirit of the ground itself, rocks are found everywhere in various levels of power. It merges the ground's strength with its own will, creating a stone wall.
Legendary Associated: Regirock

Dark: The primordial emotion of one's soul, it merges fire's emotions with one's body to become pure, raw uncontrollable emotional downpour.
Legendary Associated: Darkrai

Fighting: Merging fire's spirit and emotions with water's calm and control, it becomes a discipline that creates precise movements that can become voracious and tenacious.
Legendaries Associated: Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, Keldeo

Poison: Merging the body's need and will to protect itself from danger and water's fluidity, the combination is a deadly secretion of toxins which paralyze and harm the body of others.
Legendary Associated: There are no Legendaries associated with it.

Bug: The most abundant source of life on the planet, insects represent the free spirit of life with one's soul. It is once said that they might have been the first creatures to emerge on the planet after Arceus formed it. They are, however, much more fragile than the Lords.
This type was once called 'Mortals', it was renamed Bug type after Pokemon Scientists noticed a lot of the types seemed to be made of insects.
Legendary Associated: Gensect(6)

Ice: Merging the upper air with the source of water, it solidifies to become crystals that are hard, cold and deadly. It stops the fluidity of water in its tracks.
Legendaries Associated: Articuno, Regice

The Final Element
Ghost: The final journey.
Made up of the body, the spirit and the mind itself.
On some charts the Ghost element is displayed on the other side of the table, to indicate its nature as the end of mortal life, being an integral part of the circle but never quite fitting in.
Legendary Associated: Giratina

NOTES
(1) Ho-oh & Moltres are still argued by experts to this day if they should be placed in the Lord/Dragon category due to their mastery over Air and Fire. However, most accept Moltres in Fire due that it is its primary element associated, and Ho-oh in the Air due to its title of 'Lord of the Skies'.

(2) Meloetta is a Legendary that appears to be able to switch forms, but still posses the heart in both cases. One form concentrates more on the soul, the other on fighting. The heart is associated with it due to its ability to inspire human and Pokemon kind with its songs.

(3) Lugia also presents similar problems; many debates considering its title - Guardian of the Seas - if it should be placed in the Water, Lord, Air or Psychic element. This is further complicated with legends that say its powers can cause it to create storms with just the flap of its wings. However, due to its strong powers of the Psychic/Soul, it will be usually found listed under this category. Each Dojo differs in how it places the Legendary Creature.

(4) Victini is unique in that it represents the Grandest part of the Soul, fueled with the burning desire of fire and passion. Many have considered it the Pokemon of Victory and the Soul Itself. This is why it shows up in both Fire and Heart elements.

(5) While also a Steel Pokemon, Jirachi's ability to grant wishes has many Masters placing it in the Heart element.

(6) We understand that Genosect is considered a Legendary Bug, but because of its death millions of years ago, it is sometimes refused as a true representative of the element.
