>M-Gyarados isn't Dragon type nor does it learn Crunch
The no dragon-typing is unfortunate but nothing to get mad over, not learning Crunch is, however, completely inexcusable.
>Lake legends aren't Fairy type
They'll never retype legends
>Cresselia isn't Fairy type
See above
>Mismagius isn't Fairy type
How the fuck is Mismagius a fairy? Because it looks feminine?
>Florges isn't Fairy/Grass
Sad from a flavor perspective, considering it merges with the fucking flower, but hugely beneficial from a competitive standpoint. Useless abilities for singles, though.

Because its best move throughout DPP was crunch, rather than an electric move.

The crazy eyes, intimidate and colour scheme didn't hurt. But main reason is crunch.

Banshees are a type of Fairy. This makes far more sense than Marill or Dedenne being Fairy type.

No, my logic is that it would make sense to be a Fairy type, oh smart one.

I don't know about you, but this looks like a yellow/black thing with a regular ass mouth. No part of this design actively shows "this is metal" other than the teeth, and you can't give every pokemon with visible teeth steel type.

It's just for the anteater gimmick with Durant. And while a fire anteater with an exhaust pipe that looks like a squash isn't exactly cutting edge design, I'd prefer it to the multitude of grass types we have already.

>Pixies, Elfs and Sprites are not fairies. Fairies are fairies

Are you stupid? The plate that turns Arceus into a Fairy is called Pixie Plate and Clefable's Japanese name is basically "pixie." Elves and sprites are also kinds of fairies. Look it up.

>Cresselia is not moon themed
Oh yeah, totally! That's why it's classified as the lunar Pokemon, who has a signature move called lunar dance! No moon relation at all! :^)

>Mismagius isn't a banshee
It and its pre-evolution have enough similarities for it to be a possible origin. And it's not like it's any worse than a bunch of other things that got retyped.
