It's because it associates dragon with salamence, to the point where the dragon type to google is just the salamence type. Thus when you search dragon type, it searches salamence type and the only type it recognizes is flying.
The fact that one of the things they promoted when Fairy was introduced was its match up against Dragon really shows how strong the latter was. At least in my opinion.
Ronald Matos Garchomp was controlled by the Glaceons and Frostlasses running around the sinnoh region, Hydreigon was really the first broken Psudo legendary because of its disgusting move pool and stats, it’s just my opinion though so no hate, but I do agree Gen 3 is when Dragons were a respected type
Ghost should be next due to it being the same to dragon: terrible type in gen 1 with only one line in the gen. though, i guess you could save that for October.
I like to argue that when Game Freak introduced Mega Evolutions, it wasn't to make "weaker" pokemon better, it's to make favored and/or Veteran pokemon more bad-ass for their destructive power. This is considering how 60% of all Mega evolutions are pokemon that Veteran players would more commonly use, while others receive it either for story purposes or picking a few that trainers should show love for.
Outrage wasn't even that good. Before gen four it's base power was 90 instead of 120. Considering it traps, confuses and makes you predictable, it was pretty meh.

Agreed. They were very similar until Gen 4. Gen 1: One evolutionary line. Gen 2: One Pokémon. Period. Gen 3: Three Pokémon/evolution lines (not counting legends)
A few years ago, I thought about Dragon type Pokemon being weak to Steel types as I saw it as a knight, wielding a sword, in an attempt to slay the Dragon.
Since This Video 📹 is About Dragon Types 🐉. My Favorite Legendary Pokémon & Favorite Dragon Type 🐉 is eternatus 🐉💀 The Poison/Dragon 🐉💀 Type Monstrous Legendary Pokémon. As eternatus 🐉💀 Have An Amazing Powers, Lore/Origins, Can Warp Spacetime Like The Creation Trio & Facts: Gen 8 Never Gotten A Third Version Like Gen 6. So Pokémon Legends: Eternatus 🎮 Needs To Happen. And eternatus 🐉💀 is The Third Legendary Pokémon For Gen 8. This is Going To Redeem eternatus 🐉💀 So Much & Gives it The Respect it Deserves. Without A Doubt One Of The Best Legendary Pokémons Ever.
Dragon type before Gen 6: A great and pretty powerful type to use. Dragon type during and after Gen 6: *Then everything changed when the Fairy nation attacked.*
Here's an updated version: Gen 5: the only thing to add is the specialist is Benga, Alder's Grandson and the final Boss Trainer of the Black Tower in B2 and White Treehollow in W2. Gen 6: the only thing to add is the specialist Zinnia, who has a major role in the Delta episode of ORAS. Gen 7: the only thing to add is Alolan Exeggutor, which MandJTV forgot to add. Gen 8: the new pokémon added was Regidrago, added in the DLC of Crown Tundra. The new move was Dragon Energy, the signature move of Regidrago, which is a clone of Water spout. Gen 9: the new pokémon were Cyclizar, the 3 forms of Tatsugiri, Baxcalibur, Roaring Moon, Koraidon, Miraidon, Walking Wake, Dipplin and Terror Storm. Off these the mascots of Scarlet and Violet and Cyclizar would make by far the biggest impact. The new moves were Glaive rush, Baxcalibur's signature move with 120 BP and 100 acc that has a negative effect, which makes it so if Baxcalibur uses it, and doesn't K.O. the target, it's next move will not miss and will deal double the damage. And the other move is Order up, the signatur move of Dondozo. Normally it only does damage, however, if an allied Tatsugiri activates its ability Commander, Order up will give to Dondozo an increased stat depending on which Tatsugiri activated it. If it was the Curly form, it will give to Dondozo a +1 attack. If it was the Droopy form, a +1 defense, and if it was the Stretchy form a +1 speed. The specialist is Hassel, art teacher of the academy and elite 4. Please like this comment so more people can know this info. I will update my comments whenever we get new info.
@@trisha822003 She never claimed to be a Dragon specialist. On top of this, one of her claims to fame was being the first Champion since Blue who didn't (at least attempt to) specialize in a single type.
Personally I feel like goodra should of been a dragon/water dual type. I feel like it fits since it only evolves in areas where it’s raining, it lives In Swamps, and it looks like a water type. If they made it learn more water moves than I think that they would pull it off great. Plus we don’t really have that many dragon/water dual types.
Please bring this series back . Hearing you explain the changes and additions to each gen is very informative and you make listening to it fun . I appreciate all your videos though. Moral of this message please bring back then vs now !!!
@@Hmmm777 you know Mega Salemence has had play in Ubers right, and can easily kill you witha return or double edge, I don't think you know how Good M-Salemence is
My experience is less that Fairy Type is "the best" so much as that it has some good members and capable dual-typings. Any OU team has a Dragon, a Fairy, and a Steel. My love the Clockwork Bunny covered two, with an awesome ability and base-stat total...but I respect teams lacking my soulmate.
Using mega garchomp was actually bad. It was straight worse then normal Garchomp with a Held item. Same for Mega Mewtwo Y. It was worse then Life Orb Mewtwo :D
Y0G0FU Same goes for Blaziken too. You'd only used mega Blaziken if your Blaziken doesn't have speed boost but like it's a starter and 99% of the time you're using a starter is with it's hidden ability
Since I’m someone that never plays competitive and mostly just uses Pokémon that look good, I don’t take Smogon seriously and use Mega Garchomp because it’s one of my favorite Megas in design
Its base stats 23445566774444665643323356789876543332222 and trip snivy bst 1,3455455456455,46454656456 ×25454353535353353546454464 and the ledadarys are 2
"The purpose of mega evolution was making underpowered Pokemon good"? Come on, it was stated that the idea started with "We want to make MEWTWO stronger".
16:00 I would argue that with ice shard being a priority move, being physical, and the fact that almost all dragons have a flying or ground subtype to weaken them that most ice types not being fast wasn't an issue but fair enough.
Breaking Swipe is very widely used because of its ability to lower stats with spread. But until recently Dragon Darts was very common as an attack move for Dragapult (and lots of people used Dragapult in some way up until the latest VGC series). But it became more common to use Dragapult as a support Mon that could set up G-Max Coallossal, set up screens, or reliably burn opponents.
Gen 1: Poison was literally everywhere, and the best move for it was Sludge, exclusive to the Muk Line, and the Weezing Line. That’s why Psychic types were busted, because literally over 1/5 of the entire dex was Poison. Some Good Poison Types were Venusaur, the Nidorans, Tentacruel, The Rocket Duo, etc. Gen 2: Sludge Bomb helped Poison STAB a lot, but it lost it’s super effectiveness against Bug, so it got balanced out. Idk about the rest
I don't think the fairy type needs a nerf. The reason that fairy type Pokemon are so strong is their type combinations tend to be really beneficial. Honestly, a few more decent poison and steel type moves that are more widely spread would keep them from becoming like dragon, which still manages to be overpowered even with fairy doing it's best to check them.
18:30 You misunderstood the purpose of mega evolution then. It definitely wasn't just to make underpowered Pokémon better. Some were for buffs, but the concept as a whole was very obviously also a ploy to give new forms to popular Pokémon regardless of their power level. I'd argue the answer is never "these megas shouldn't have been made." More megas is always the answer 😁
I don't consider Charizard most overrated because he sucked at competitive and stealth Rock pretty much killed it's credibility,getting extra attention is fine as long as it doesn't dominate the meta.I consider Mewtwo and Landorus T overrated.I like MewTwo but it was a man made Pokemon,how does it get 2 mega evolutions but mew aka the original one doesn't have 1. Edit: it seems that a lot of guys are getting my point wrong,I agree Charizard is overrated but not the most overrated,to be the most overrated you have to dominate literally everything
@@gamechanger700 But Zard is still overrated cuz Ash has one, it's playable in Smash and in Pokkén, it has two megas, it has a Gmax form, it was in Detective Pikachu, it's Leon's ace, etc., etc.
@@gamechanger700 What are you talking about lol, the reason Charizard is overrated because he sucks in competitive yet gamefreak seems to give it extra treatment and most Pokemon players seem to praise Charizard like it is a literal god
Araf Zaman SSR fanclub I love Charizard, it’s in my top 10 favorite mon list and it’s in my dream team, but the thing is stupidly overrated and it’s treated like a god by gamefreak and I hate that
@@desiterdane4286 you are not getting my point.I am not saying Charizard isn't overrated,he is overrated but certainly not the most overrated.There are way overrated Pokemons than Zard
When I first played Sheild, I was confused about the Fairy Type. It had been years since I played Pokémon; the last I played was Platinum. Fairy type took me for a ride for an entire month because I was clueless about it 😂
That stupid Altaria was the reason why she was difficult for me to beat the first time I played ruby. It also didn't help that I didn't take the time to get the ice beam TM before I fought her, which I have since made sure to do in all other playthroughs afterwards.

Dragon type before Gen 6: A great and pretty powerful type to use.
Dragon type during and after Gen 6: *Then everything changed when the Fairy nation attacked.*
Here's an updated version:
Gen 5: the only thing to add is the specialist is Benga, Alder's Grandson and the final Boss Trainer of the Black Tower in B2 and White Treehollow in W2.
Gen 6: the only thing to add is the specialist Zinnia, who has a major role in the Delta episode of ORAS.
Gen 7: the only thing to add is Alolan Exeggutor, which MandJTV forgot to add.
Gen 8: the new pokémon added was Regidrago, added in the DLC of Crown Tundra.
The new move was Dragon Energy, the signature move of Regidrago, which is a clone of Water spout.
Gen 9: the new pokémon were Cyclizar, the 3 forms of Tatsugiri, Baxcalibur, Roaring Moon, Koraidon, Miraidon, Walking Wake, Dipplin and Terror Storm. Off these the mascots of Scarlet and Violet and Cyclizar would make by far the biggest impact.
The new moves were Glaive rush, Baxcalibur's signature move with 120 BP and 100 acc that has a negative effect, which makes it so if Baxcalibur uses it, and doesn't K.O. the target, it's next move will not miss and will deal double the damage. And the other move is Order up, the signatur move of Dondozo. Normally it only does damage, however, if an allied Tatsugiri activates its ability Commander, Order up will give to Dondozo an increased stat depending on which Tatsugiri activated it. If it was the Curly form, it will give to Dondozo a +1 attack. If it was the Droopy form, a +1 defense, and if it was the Stretchy form a +1 speed.
The specialist is Hassel, art teacher of the academy and elite 4.

Well to be honest the dragons would probably prefer to have the flying type Charizard or Gyarados in their group over the coconut tree dragon
“They flew too close to the sun”
Oh I love it
Personally I feel like goodra should of been a dragon/water dual type. I feel like it fits since it only evolves in areas where it’s raining, it lives In Swamps, and it looks like a water type. If they made it learn more water moves than I think that they would pull it off great. Plus we don’t really have that many dragon/water dual types.
Alternatively: it’s a Dragon that’s also a Snail. It would’ve been the PERFECT Bug/Dragon-type!
Or Poison/Dragon!
Poison/Water maybe because it just doesn't look like a Dragom
@@ronn6771 Dragons don't all look the same. It's based on the Medieval giant snails which knights fought in folklore before dragons were the target

@@Hmmm777 you know Mega Salemence has had play in Ubers right, and can easily kill you witha return or double edge, I don't think you know how Good M-Salemence is
My experience is less that Fairy Type is "the best" so much as that it has some good members and capable dual-typings.
Any OU team has a Dragon, a Fairy, and a Steel. My love the Clockwork Bunny covered two, with an awesome ability and base-stat total...but I respect teams lacking my soulmate.

Scale shot is often used on Garchomp to outspeed other pokemon, 102 speed is good but not enough.
Breaking Swipe was eventually given to more older Pokémon in response to the removal of Dual Chop from Gen 9
"mega garchomp was overkill"
Smogon says that using garchompite on your garchomp is a liability
I mean mormal Garchom is a fantastic pokemon and still works fine without a mega. The mega slot on the team should really be used for something else
Huy Hoang Minh Do like dragonite... oh
Using mega garchomp was actually bad. It was straight worse then normal Garchomp with a Held item. Same for Mega Mewtwo Y. It was worse then Life Orb Mewtwo :D
Y0G0FU Same goes for Blaziken too. You'd only used mega Blaziken if your Blaziken doesn't have speed boost but like it's a starter and 99% of the time you're using a starter is with it's hidden ability
Since I’m someone that never plays competitive and mostly just uses Pokémon that look good, I don’t take Smogon seriously and use Mega Garchomp because it’s one of my favorite Megas in design

16:00 I would argue that with ice shard being a priority move, being physical, and the fact that almost all dragons have a flying or ground subtype to weaken them that most ice types not being fast wasn't an issue but fair enough.
Kyurem: there something wrong i can feel it
Breaking Swipe is very widely used because of its ability to lower stats with spread. But until recently Dragon Darts was very common as an attack move for Dragapult (and lots of people used Dragapult in some way up until the latest VGC series). But it became more common to use Dragapult as a support Mon that could set up G-Max Coallossal, set up screens, or reliably burn opponents.

Petition to make a ‘Poison type Pokémon: Then vs now’
Gen 1: Poison was literally everywhere, and the best move for it was Sludge, exclusive to the Muk Line, and the Weezing Line. That’s why Psychic types were busted, because literally over 1/5 of the entire dex was Poison. Some Good Poison Types were Venusaur, the Nidorans, Tentacruel, The Rocket Duo, etc.
Gen 2: Sludge Bomb helped Poison STAB a lot, but it lost it’s super effectiveness against Bug, so it got balanced out.
Idk about the rest
Excellent idea!
I don't think the fairy type needs a nerf. The reason that fairy type Pokemon are so strong is their type combinations tend to be really beneficial. Honestly, a few more decent poison and steel type moves that are more widely spread would keep them from becoming like dragon, which still manages to be overpowered even with fairy doing it's best to check them.
it needs to be weak to fire, and should only resist dragon, then maybe fairy type would be balanced and fair.

Fairies : "Hold my moonblast".
Eh, Charizard can take it. Remember, Fire helps cushion it against Fairy attacks.
18:30 You misunderstood the purpose of mega evolution then. It definitely wasn't just to make underpowered Pokémon better. Some were for buffs, but the concept as a whole was very obviously also a ploy to give new forms to popular Pokémon regardless of their power level. I'd argue the answer is never "these megas shouldn't have been made." More megas is always the answer 😁
I agree with you. We want more megas!!!
Or they could have just gave the underpowered pokemon an evolution
Hey Remember When Charizard was not the most overrated Pokémon and was not given a dragon type
I don't consider Charizard most overrated because he sucked at competitive and stealth Rock pretty much killed it's credibility,getting extra attention is fine as long as it doesn't dominate the meta.I consider Mewtwo and Landorus T overrated.I like MewTwo but it was a man made Pokemon,how does it get 2 mega evolutions but mew aka the original one doesn't have 1.
Edit: it seems that a lot of guys are getting my point wrong,I agree Charizard is overrated but not the most overrated,to be the most overrated you have to dominate literally everything
@@gamechanger700 But Zard is still overrated cuz Ash has one, it's playable in Smash and in Pokkén, it has two megas, it has a Gmax form, it was in Detective Pikachu, it's Leon's ace, etc., etc.
