Turtwig being Grass/Dragon would actually be really boring and lame compared to Grass/Ground and Grass/Rock though.
Like, the whole point of gaining dragon typing is to be cool, but Torterra being part dragon makes it less cool.

They all already have secondary typing why would they get another when going mega? I mean Charizard x was dragon/fire but that was to satisfy the "Charizard is a dragon" meme.

I have to agree with this anon >>24591341
It just seems outlandish to do anymore. Sceptiles was pretty random though. At least the ones that did get the dragon treatment had dragon qualities and dragon type moves before the mega came. None of the gen 4 mons learn any dragon moves through leveling and breeding. Infernale can learn Dual Chop through tutors and torterra can learn outrage but thats it.

It learned Dragon Pulse, Outrage, and Dragon Claw pre-mega, and at least has the reptilian look going for it.
How was it random?

If you read past that I already said that they at least learn dragon moves. But that doesn't mean that it should be a dragon type. And it hardly has any dragon qualities.

Dual types don't really mean anything.

Considering Tyrantrum and M-Sceptile are dragon type? yes

Usually a good indicator that you have dragon-like qualities in the pokémon world are

>you are a literal dragon
>you are a reptile
>you are a snake
>you are a seahorse because muh japan mithology
>you are a serpentine fish

Of course with execeptions such as Ampharos that for all I know got the mega because of some stupid pun with its japanese name

Other factors that might weight in for a /dragon mega or a dragon typing from the get-go also include the ability to learn dragon-type moves naturally or through breeding and being in the Dragon Egg Group in general (see Sceptile)

With that out of the way, the only one that might have a shot would be Torterra because it's dinosaur-esque abilities might weight in for a Dragon typing like the did for Tyrantrum. Infernape and Empoleon would need to have mega design that are a complete departure of their origins for a /dragon to be added.

That said I believe none of them will change typings when they get their megas. Same for Gen 6 starters.

That's why I said indicators, not criterias that grant you a /dragon when met, otherwise Seviper and Milotic to name a few would be dragons and Garchomp would be Ground/Water or something

Some Pokemon lose their first type when evolving, no reason they wouldn't do it for Megas too.

This. The Japanese name of Ampharos is Denryu.
Den = electrical, Ryu = current, however Ryuu = Dragon.
Stupid pun, but at least there's a reason for the mega being dragon.
