Why is that people are adamant on ruining this fine species with bug-typing? I can't think of any good reason other than >muh autism

Dragon/Bug is fucking ass and you know it.

Well it's based off of a bug and being bug type might give it a chance to get Quiver Dance or Tinted Lens.
I still prefer it as Dragon/Ground though.

Because the whole body is based on that ancient sea bug. Meanwhile Flygon reminds me of a fast wind dragon that has his body modified to resist sandstorms.
But Trapinch and Vibrava look like bugs to me, but I bet people would be even moee mad if those two dropped the bug typing for the dragon one

-Decent 113 SpA (given how many run Scarf, not such an opportunity cost) on top of troll 101 base Speed; still has 100 base Attack for mixed coverage with EQ and U-turn

Looks good, boss. I get why everyone's so set on Dragon Dance, but it's not the only way to improve it.

The Trapinch evolution chain is based off an antlion, but since adult antlions and dragonflies look so much alike, maybe that's the reason why it became a Dragon type. Also, heard some dragonflies are called "sand dragons", which exactly describe Flygon.

Salamence is also a pseudo. Altaria a non pseudo was made in the same generation as Salemence, given the same typing, and has a lower BST than Flygon.
>Altaria has better defence than Salamence
>Altaria has better special defence than Salamence
>Altaria has different utility (support) than Salamence (mixed sweeper)

This is why Altaria got a mega, and Flygon probably won't. Because it was only designed to do what Garchomp can- but worse in every regard.

Also, I'd like to mention that your tears are also wet.

What it gets from that?
Positive: Better defensive typing, still resists quake/edge, no SR weakness, God tier priority needed in todays meta, quadriple resist on grass, neutral on ice, resists water, completley distinguishes it self from Garchomp.
Negative stuff:
Fighting weakness (in a meta with almost no fighting types), no longer resissts fire and isn't immune to electric attacks.

It also makes sense since it can be explained as hardening its chitin exoskeleton.

this is the principal reason why so many faggots want it to be Bug/Dragon yet the reason is incredible stupid because we're talking about Pokemon, Pokemon gentlemen! A franchise where one of the funny things is that you can have designs based on real things but remade to be natural of "another elemental domain" and has no need to be exactly a mirror of the real world.
This is called Pokemon, a fictional universe full of invented creatures, not RealAnimals

Steel type keeps it in line with the Kamen rider theme it has going for it self.
Type changes are already a thing with megas so why not give steel type to a mega whose theme it would fit.
Flygon actually benefits from steel unlike Hydreigeon.
Immagine the potential that it has.
If Mega Flygon becomes Dragon/Steel with levitate, gets all of its stats boosted by 20 and gains bullet punch/iron head it basically becomes a better Scizor since it can fuck fire types sideways with the coverage it has as well as being able to go mixed carying glamethrower and giga drain.
