Regular Ninetales should be Ghost-type if anything.

Fairy typings are basically random

Because fairy is the shoehorned type that just adds itself randomly to some old pokemons for the fuck of it instead of making good new fairy pokemons.

This. There's little to no coherence with the pokemon who has the typing, and the theme itself. With the inteoduction of moon blast and Clefable being fairy it seemed that it could have to do with moon, yet they Made a moon legendary ghost/psychic right the generation after its introduction

Fairy is a type whose only purpose is counter various other types. It has no theme other than "This would be a cool pokemon to kill dragons, fighters and darkmons with!"

In other words, it's ice/fairy so it can protect itself from fighting types and no other reason.

Maybe they're just gonna fairyify Ninetales in general.

A better question is why normal Ninetales wasn't made a Fairy-type already. It's based on the mythological kitsune so it would only make sense to make it Fairy. That's actually more than likely the reason they made Alola Ninetales Fairy.

If you actually take a look at the list of dragon types there's very few that don't fit.

You are blowing this way out of proportion, as >>27481901
said even weird ones like Ampharos have a reason for it. Ampharos' japanese name is literally "Electric Dragon"

Fairy has to do with the moon somewhat, but Psychic covers space in general (Deoxys, Jirachi, Solrock, Lunatone, Elgyem) which is why they picked it as the type for this Duo. And the reason Lunala is ghost should be obvious, it's designed to look like a skeleton.

We still don't know if regular ninetails is getting a typing change. The ice/fairy typing suggests it is, either to Faerie/Fire or to Ghost/Fire. Even if it doesn't get a new typing so what? Do all autists need fucking everything to be perfectly balanced on either side?

No, it's really not. Because it's clearly a pangolin, and the -shrew part was only added in by shitty localizers. Like how Mr. Mime is called Barrierd in Japan, so it's gender-neutral. Sandshrew has nothing to do with shrews. It's a pangolin.
