>>42978846Luxray has similar expressions and mannerisms to houndoom, which is unquestionably a dark type. In addition, its fur is shaped into several 'spikes' implying hostile intent. Plus like I said earlier, it just has this look on its face that makes it seem like it's plotting how best to tear your throat out. Honestly, I don't see how it's electric, aside from a few yellow streaks. But if we justify its electric nature based on the yellow, that automatically justifies it as dark as well, because it's primarily black, with only small accents of yellow.
We can agree to disagree on sunflora, but I think the idea of a sunflower pokemon channeling the heat of the sun is one of the few concepts that would work for a grass/fire. What else would work as a design? A tree that's perpetually on fire? Sure, I guess, but that's a bit too on the nose for my tastes, I think the sunflower idea is at least a bit more creative than the most literal interpretation of the two types.
Again, with mismagius, its design is clearly a witch hat, witches are associated with magic and hexes. Plus, several of mismagius' dex entries state that it chants incantations, places hexes and casts spells, so it very much is associated with magic and witchcraft, even if the dex entries aren't to be taken literally. Misdreavous I would keep pure ghost however.
And I agree that rock/steel works fine for Probopass, I just prefer rock/electric for it since it's a much more interesting typing in my eyes, plus Probopass learns twice as many electric moves as it does steel for some reason.
