ITT: Pokémon with a wrong type.

Lugia should have been Water/Flying.

It wasn't always underwater. It lived on top of a tower just like Ho-oh did until it burned down.

Guardian of the seas, able to use aeroblast. Lugia was likely based on susano'o, God of the sea and wind while ho-oh was based on Amaterasu, goddess of the sun. Also would have drawn parralels to the 3 dogs

It almost like it doesn't look like Ghost type at all, and the flavor text doesn't give any spooky lore.

AND it's a flying bird like Rowlet and Dartrix.

No. It lives in the sea, because it's tower is gone. It never came from the sea, nor is it a sea creature.

My only issue with it is that it *becomes* ghost-type. I'd probably be fine with it if it was Ghost all along.

Since when does competitive come first than logic? If it looked ghostly there would be no problem.

Not in the flavor text, headcannon until confirmed.

It doesn't need to literally be part of the pokemon for it to affect it's design and typing. Did you expect GF to not use local lore when designing alola mons?

Considering that it's hood casts shadows over its face, all they would have to do is make its scleras glow like under night vision and the concept would have been so much easier to sell.

Because it's very probably based on a real bird that according to myth is the physical form of dead people. It's not supposed to look "ghostly," it's supposed to look like an owl.

Everybody bitching about how the Psychic/Flying cover legendary should have been Water/Flying, when the real injustice is the Psychic/Ghost cover legendary that revolves around light and the moon should be Fairy/Ghost to reflect that.
