nevermind.

Must have been a rumor I heard.

Ohh the number of weird pokemon. Such as all the pokemon with wings, that are shown flying, but are clearly not flying (have neither the flying type nor the levitation ability... nor a move that lets them fly or float)

Engage steel type rage

I feel real sorry for people who haven't been keeping up with Pokémon. Some typing is REALLY hard to spot.

For example... Flygon

That's a dragon type guys.

Surprised me when I caught one in the Marshes of Laverre City during the story. I dragged it around with me for a while, unaware of it being the first part of a pseudolegendary.

Look we can play the "guess what types this pokemon is" all day (because goodness... are there a lot of pokemon with completely obtuse types.)

[Greiger]

I had a lot of fun trying to figure out which of the old normal types became part fairy.  Actually resulted in my Zoroark having a very bad day a couple times when focus blast and night daze end up not doing as much damage as I expected.

Eh, it looks like a dragon enough. When I first got a Flygon way back in 2003, I thought it was Bug/Dragon, not Dragon/Ground.

I thought Zygarde was Bug/Dragon at first, as well.

Just a crappier version of garchomp sadly.

Extremespeed and Dragon Dance give it a niche, IIRC.

I prefer Coil sets, actually; Zygarde has quite a bit of staying power to it, and the defense boosts help greatly with that.  The accuracy boost also boosts the effectiveness of otherwise-unreliable Rock moves like Stone Edge or the STAB Dragon Tail.  Finally, there are faster Pokemon that can pull off Dragon Dance sweeper sets a bit more effectively than Zygarde, but there are very few Pokemon that can use Coil effectively.

As for Flygon, sadly, it didn't even get that much.  Flygon's sole advantage over Garchomp is U-Turn, as far as I know. 

[Reudh]

Weaker Garchomp with access to U-Turn. Just barely outspeeds Hydreigon, the other U-turn dragon.

Needs a scarf or a band to function.

[Neonivek]

Honestly the reason I believe there are so many Dragon Ground types is SPECIFICALLY to give them a double weakness.

It is one of the few times I see them game the system.

Also I assume the Slug Dragon isn't a Dragon/Water type right? even though that is clearly its unintentional role (though to admit, lots of pokemon have a Technical extra type. Flygon is also a bug AND Flying pokemon in the moves it learns... because Trapwich isn't a bug type for no raisen)

[Furtuka]

Goomy is pure Dragon
