Thread: The weird thing about gyarados.......

No, they'll never do that, if they were concerned, they'd already have changed it, especially considering it is used by Clair in HGSS, and wasn't changed at all.

And besides, it's a perfect fit with the concept it was based on.

I have thought about it and Gyarados should stay Water/Flying. It would be like saying Charizard, you are now a Fire/Dragon Pokemon. They can not simply do that. Like others have said it fits the concept and Lance (Who doped his Pokemon with Full Restores.) and Clair use because it was close enough to a dragon. If anything we should be discussing Altaria of how it shouldn't be a Dragon. (I know it is about the Peng and it is portrayed as having a dragon's head but, does it really look like a dragon to you?)
