Based on the random phase approximation calculation in two-orbital honeycomb lattice model, we investigate the pairing symmetry of Ni-based transition-metal trichalcogenides by electron doping access to type-II van Hove singularities (vHs). We find that chiral even-parity d + id-wave (Eg) state is suppressed by odd-parity p + ip-wave (Eu) state when electron doping approaches the type-II vHs. The type-II vHs peak in density of states (DOS) enables to strengthen the ferromagnetic fluctuation, which is responsible for triplet pairing. The competition between antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic fluctuation results in pairing phase transition from singlet to triplet pairing. The Ni-based transition-metal trichalcogenides provide a promising platform to unconventional superconductor emerging from electronic DOS.
