I know why Charizard isn’t a Dragon type! :D Charizard is not a Dragon type for balance reasons. The three starters are intended to be roughly similar power levels. Venusaur, the bulky status annoyer, Charizard, the fast fragile speedster, and Blastoise, the tanky special attacker, were supposed to be close to each other in strength, making no one choice the obvious best. Giving Charizard the Dragon type would make it much stronger than the other two. Dragon is a very powerful defensive type, and it would provide Charizard a slew of resistances in exchange for losing its Ground immunity (and thus gaining one weakness). Originally Charizard had: 4x: Rock 2x: Water, Electric 1/2: Fire 1/4: Grass, Bug 0x: Ground With the Dragon type, the Rock weakness is only 2x instead of 4x, the Water weakness goes away, the Electric weakness becomes a resist, Bug and Fire swap places, and Ground becomes a weakness. Instead of a 4x to Rock and 2x to Water and Electric, Charizard only has 2x to Rock and 2x to Ground, making it a lot harder to kill (Technically it would also have 2x to Dragon, but there were no Dragon moves in RBY to hit that weakness). If Charizard were a Dragon type, it would have been extremely overpowered compared to Venusaur and Blastoise. My questions have been answered!

Wait a minute, water types are weak to dragon types?

No,don't think so. Strong Against Fire,Rock,Ground Weak Against Electric,Grass

Oh geez- we haven't been super active lately >_< sorry to everyone here who hasn't been added to the registry yet, we'll be getting on that! Honestly kind of forgot because of school work. On a more related note, does anyone have any suggestions for a new discussion topic? EDIT: Believe we've got everyone added on. Let us know if we missed anyone! Hoping to revive the thread a bit since it kind of ended up forgotten about.

Oof..same. I haven't really been active on pokefarm that much. I don't really play it a lot anymore. Not sure why. Can't seem to think of a discussion topic, sorry!

May as well give this a gentle nudge with a new discussion topic! Well, it's more of seeing everyone's opinion type thing, but still, it's something to do. What is your favorite dragon type Pokemon design? And which is your least favorite? You can answer one or both questions if you want!
