It's Poison/Flying, not Flying/Poison.

Also I don't understand why we haven't had a single Poison/Flying mon other than the Zubat line.

To be fair, Gyarados didn't learn any flying type attacks until gen 4, and that's only with tutors.

False equivalency. Fire producing animals don't typically exist in nature, while venomous and toxic animals do.
Same goes for Electric, Ice, or whatever other retarded shitpost you were planning on making.

Charmander - Salamanders aren't on fire

Starmie - Starfish aren't psychic
etc...

Come on...It's Pokemon, they're not suppose to be real animals.

Neither do venomous bats. Guess it must be a fantasy game, huh.

If we're getting REALLY autistic, most of the poison type pokemon aren't actually poisonous, they're venomous. Most grass type pokemon aren't grass, but they are plants, a few aren't even plants they're fungi. Quite a few bug types are crustaceans, which could arguably be ok on its own, except that quite a few crustaceans are water type. At least one steel type isn't actually made of steel, but bronze rather.

That's just arguing semantics. It's called "Poison" type, but it's clearly meant to represent Poisons, Toxins, and other ailments. It's called "Grass" type, but it's clearly meant to represent all sorts of plants. And etc...

If we can argue there are no venomous bats, then we can definitely make an argument about this one.

Well name something that could be another Poison/Flying type. Gligar/Gliscor could've been but weren't. I guess a mosquito Pokemon could be but they'd give it a Bug typing before the other two... I can't think of anything else. Maybe a bird that spits poison? I think there's something like that in the Amazon

Because most choices for Poison/Flying are insects, but they then would usually have a Bug typing.
There are birds that are poisonous, but they are few and far between.
Mythology might have some, but I ain't gonna go searching for one right now.

Of course, there is the choice of making a fantastic creature; you know, like a winged serpent or something like that?
