Back when GS first released the last thing we ever expected was the cute blue route 2 sheep would one day have a dragon typing, back then only shared by Dragonite and Kingdra

It's a Japanese Pun.
Denryu, Ampharos' Japanese Name, can sound like both "Electric Current" and "Electric Dragon".

Ghosts and especially Dragons were supposed to be special and rare, not reserved for starting route shitmons. Horsea was common, but you could only find it later in the game and actually getting a Kingdra was pretty rare.

Ehhh, one thing I don't miss is how RPG like Gen I and Gen II were. Going back, it feels so bare bones. BRY still feel like a beta to me, GSC feel like the real first Pokemon, even though you've awkward lines in it like "3 years ago we just discovered 100 new mons that have always been here, we just never saw them, lol"

Dragon is honestly just shorthad for "This pokemon is generally powerful over natural things" You don't have 4 extra resistance because you're a dragon, you're a dragon because you have extra resistances.

Most of the new mons were extremely rare so that's justified
