>>32892843I'm not allowed to make fun of you, because I've done this exact same thing.
I even merged Water and Ice into one element, like you did. Because the distinction between them just isn't important in the HP universe. Why's Gryffindor Dragon though? Dragon should 100% be Slytherin, despite the fact that they breathe fire.
In old western European myths, (Hogwarts being in Scotland,) dragons and serpents are often associated with each other. Like sea serpents, for example. That's why "Draco" has that as a first name; because he's a Slytherin, and dragon = snake. They even call snakes "dragons" in the bible at some point, and dragons pretty much just represent a strong reptilian foe. In fairytales it's always a dragon eating sheep or whatever that the brave knight in armor has to go and slay. That kinda thing.
I'm glad you put Electric in Ravenclaw, instead of Gryffindor, also like me. Lighting comes from the sky, and electricity is just associated with brilliant minds and inventors. Think Nikola Tesla. Plus outside of Pokémon, lighting is usually blue, not yellow.
>>32892881Oh, I see. I was going to ask. Well, like water and ice, earth and rock really shouldn't even be separated outside of Pokémon -- they're the same thing.
With all that in mind, I would personally align the types this way, though it's pretty close to yours. I put Fairy in Gryffindor because it does represent light, and purity, and goodness, which are important aspects of Gryffindor. It's Gryffindor's softer side.
I could explain more but I don't want to ramble unnecessarily.
