Gyarados have NO excuse to be Water/Flying and should be instead Water/Dragon EASILY.

Back since certain typing was changed in both moves and pokemon e.g.: Bite = Normal (changed into Dark) and Magnemite being just Electric (got Steel typing to it) There was NO EXCUSE for them to keep Gyarados' flying typing given they expanded the dragon movepool. Hell! No even mega corrects this and instead gives it Dark typing.... Those guys at gamefreak really dont know what they are doing.... Plus not to mention...... it cant learn move "FLY".

From Bulbapedia: Gyarados's Flying type may be a reference to koinobori, a carp-shaped windsock traditionally flown to celebrate Children's Day in Japan, formerly called Tango no Sekku (端午の節句). It could also be inspired by the South African cryptid Inkanyamba, a giant, winged eel that causes storms when angry, a trait Gyarados is famous for. In episode 53, The Purr-fect Hero, we see a flagpole with several wind cones modeled after a Gyarados, Goldeen, and Magikarp. Just like the koinobori, in real life.

[@Alexs23743]

I always figured it was an attempt at balance. If Gyarados were Water/Dragon, it would essentially have no weaknesses in Generation 1. ^^

[@GalaxyPalkia]

8:51 Palkia’s Water Type makes perfect sense. You know Dialga is Steel/Dragon. It is because of Pokémon Diamond. Diamonds are supposed to be hard as steel. And Palkia, being the mascot of Pokémon Pearl, you would most likely find pearls in water. So, there you go Alex.

Lugia is not water type because back then a psychic type was known as a "strong" type, because you had pokemon like Alakazam, Mewtwo, Mew, and more.

Im pretty sure someone already said this, but Palkia is a water type since the trio (Dialga, Palkia and Giratina) base off the states or forms of matter. Palkia being liquid, makes it a water type. Giratina is ghost because its gas, and dialga is steel since it shows solid.

[@MiguelitoJimz]

Lugia is Psychic since it used to live in the Scorched tower, also being a water type would give an advantage over Ho-Oh, Lugia has telepatic powers and the hability to speak to humans, an hability shared by almost every psychic type. So Lugia is a representation of how humans cans missinterpret some legends since humans in the pokemon world assumed Lugia was a water type. Lucario is steel because mineral ores and crystals are used in spiritual energy rituals, psychic represents the mind so it wouldn't fit in the concept of aura, since Lucario uses spiritual powers, not mind powers, and if a counterargument is that there's a Lucario who can speak to humans using telepaty, movies are not canon. Palkia is water because it's a methaphor to the space, since time is not malleable represented by the sturdy nature of steel of Palkia, and space is vast and uncontrolable, just like the sea. Also the legendary trio it comes from also represents the 3 states of matter, Dialga being solid, Palkia liquid and Giratina is gaseous.

Well... Palkia's Typing makes more sense than it might seem, in my opinion. Let's think about the trio. All 3 pokemon are Dragon Types, and of course they are called "Dragon Trio" as well. But their secondary typing does actually make sense. Giratina is the lord of the Distortion World, and it has a Ghost Type: this makes sense, because it's capabe of traveling within the dimensions, change its form, gaining ghost wings and stuff. Dialga is the lord of Time, and it can travel over time. A Steel Type makes sense: the steel is a very durable alloy that can resist for years with no sign of deteriorations, so Dialga's steel body is necessary for him in order to stay unharmed after all those time travels. Now let's try to apply this concept to Palkia: Palkia is the lord of space, it can teleport and manipulate the space itself to his liking. Now: between all pokemon typings, which fits Palkia the best? Which material can assume any form without being destroyed, thanks to its nature? Water. Its Water Type helps Palkia to survive and stay completely unharmed when manipulating space, as steel does for Dialga when manipulating time. Also, since the trio represents the whole universe, it is possible that developers thought about let 'em represent the 3 stages of matter as well, with "Steel" representing "Solid", "Water" prepresenting "Liquid", and "Ghost" representing "Air" All this lucubration does actually have a certain logic, or not? Let me know!

[@heliodotust]

Davide Carrea one of the smartest people in the comments!

[@atlas7497]

I always associated Palkia’s water typing with the idea of space commonly being referred to as the ‘cosmic ocean’. There’s also the motif of space being fluid and constantly shifting.

[@BlackavarGaming]

Not trying to be negative, and I definitely enjoyed the video! But... Gyarados - Based on a Chinese dragon which don't have wings or always breathe fire. Gastly line - Pokédex entry even states Gastly is a ball of toxic fumes. Sudowoodo - Looking like something for your own protection doesn't make you share its physical qualities. Lugia - Telepathy. Since there can't be 3 types, they had to chose from flying, water and psychic. Palkia - The legendary representing Pearl. Pearls are formed underwater in clams. Water is 100% logical.

[@redfire6605]

If Gyrados is based on a dragon... ...Why isn't it a dragon type?

[@bugsybro3011]

Actually Gyrados is a flying type because its whole evolution process (Why it goes from a karp to a dragon) is based on a chinese legend in which T that if a lowly carp could leap over a particular waterfall, referred to as the Dragon Gate, it would be transformed into a dragon, and that when one succeeded, the summer rains would start to fall. There are numerous waterfalls in China which are claimed to be the Dragon Gate, but the most notable is on the Yellow River, near Henan. Therefore, the flying type is symbolic of its evolution. Also Chinese dragons are less 'dragon-like' compared to their European counterparts, so the flying type does make sense to an extent.

Talking about magnemite.... Magnemite already has the steel type,taking the second spot. I can see why someone can be confused with it. It floats because gravity’s pulse because it’s a MAGNET

Magnemite already had electric and steel types, which fit it perfectly, so they couldn't add flying. Same for Venomoth. Bug and Poison, with no room left for flying.

[@charudogra320]

Yeah it makes magnemite an elecrtromagnet so it floats but if it had ice type it would make more sence because superconductors that make magnet float ae very very cold and so electric and steel is good but if the Pokemon company made a pre evolution for magnemite and then make it like slowbro evolution method that some iice type Pokemon has to come near it to evolve it so here's my theory Make a pre evoloution for magnemite Make a Pokemon that if that Pokemon comes near pre evolved magnemite they turn into magnemite with ice electric and steel type that will make a lot of sense as there are real life super conductors that are ice cold and make magnets float

Actually there’s a very good reason why Palkia’s a water type. Allow me to explain. So, Giratina, Palkia, and Dialga’s primary types all represent the 3 stages of matter, being gas, liquid, and solid respectively. Edit: I also have a possible explanation as to why Lucario is part steel type. Now, I’m gonna start this out by saying Lucario has a strong resemblance to Wolverine, both of which have metal claws on their hands, and Lucario’s shiny bares a strong resemblance to Wolverines yellow and blue spandex. Therefore, I believe Lucario, like Wolverine, has metal bones. This could also explain it being able to learn Bone Rush, because it’s metal spikes would actually be it’s bones. Now I know that the canon explanation is that it creates aura bow staffs that looks like bones, but I like my little theory so let me be.
