They've made it abundantly clear that Pokemon attacks are generated using some sort of magic energy that is different from natural water/fire/ice/whatever

https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/fuecoco/

>External heat is absorbed by the square scales on Fuecoco’s stomach and back, then converted into fire energy.

>Flickering atop Fuecoco’s head is fire energy that is leaking out from inside the Pokémon’s body.

>A Cetitan has five hard horns. Among them, the horn on the upper jaw is able to gather ice energy, making the surrounding temperature extremely low and freezing the area around the Pokémon.

I.E. As a Ground type, Stunfisk is weak to "water energy", but not actual water.

Wrong. Richard Nintendo was the Chief designer of all Dragon types until Generation 7

Even if it is weak to just water energy/attacks. Why would it live in an environment where most of the pokemon there are water types, something it's weak against.

It didn't; it was already weak/dying, the rain just made things worse. A healthy Charmander is unaffected by ain.

It's an electric type and is strong against almost everything down there too. It's also clearly an ambush pokemon, so it strikes first and zaps it's opponent out before they can retaliate and then hides under the sand or mud the rest of the time.

It actually lives under marine soil, which is sand. Not in the water itself.
Thats the whole concept. It is advantageous to live so close to the water to prey on water types which it can easily electrocute.
