>Why is it a tradition?
Because Dragon is supposed to be the strongest type in-universe, the "boss" type if you will, and it must be populated with powerful Pokemon

Yet they broke this "tradition" twice already. Something other than a dragon at least once in a blue moon would be fine.

is it a coincidence that the two non-dragons are also the two best pseudos

They never broke it because it wasn't a tradition yet when Tyranitar and Metagross were made. You can't break a rule before the rule exists.

The rule shouldn't exist in the first place. Having more pseudos that aren't dragons at least once in a while would be more interesting. They could also do what they did in gen 3 and make 2 of them, one being dragon.

Get a load of this autism
>shut the fuck up and stop wanting traditions to be upheaved
This mentality is one of the reasons Pokemon is a stagnant as fuck series. Just because some npcs said that dragon types are the strongest in-universe in red and blue doesn't mean you can't have a non-dragon pseudo, stop being so autistic about your patterns being broken.
>it MUST be populated with powerful pokemon
or what? you'll shit your pants? see altaria and druddigon

Or else it loses its identity as a type.
Dragon-types are strong, rare, and hard to raise. That is their identity.

Druddigon, Turtonator, Drampa, Kingdra, etc. arent strong, and the type itself is pretty bad as an attacking one

lol no, they haven't been rare since gen 3, and now you get them in the earlygame
>hard to raise
literally only (some of) the pseudos, which arent even all dragons anyway

The only Psudeo not to share a type with another Psuedo is Metagross' Steel/Psychic. It's also conveniently the only one to look non-organic.

It would be cool if they did not make a pseudo for once, but instead made something loosely similar like a single stage or two stage Pokémon with 590 BST.

Fairy types do not need a psuedo. No type “needs” a pseudo and if there was a fairy type pseudo it would be a completely unrelated design that has Fairy type slapped onto it because GF needs to fill a quota, just like every other Fairy type ever created.

But you can say that about anything? People just pick and choose when they want something to become a tradition in Pokemon, remember when Eeveelutions came every even generation?

Or every fossil Pokemon was Rock-type?

Or every region having a Normal/Flying-type bird at the beginning?
