Why is gyarados not a dragon; also, it doesn't fly

Galdrack
Nope he's water/flying and his mega is water/dark.

Are you trying to tell me that he is a dragon or something?
TinkerBill
The new aloha form of exeggutor is a dragon mix. It's weird. Theory was dragon fruit grows on palm trees
Raithul
Or, y'know, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracaena_%28plant%29?wprov=sfla1
another fair theory, but i think the two types of trees are too different
Dracaena is a large group - see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracaena_aletriformis for example
ManicYEEtPressive
Like really tho. who decided a fuckin' palm tree gets to be a goddamn dragon?
HalloIamherenow
The best thing I can think of is that some tropical trees grow dragonfruit.
UrsusDerpus
As you can tell, the same people who decided a dragon wasn't a dragon.

It's a dragon fruit tree!

Are...are you stupid?
ImSureIHaveAnAccount
I don't know why you're reacting like that, I don't even play Pokemon and I know that fucker wasn't a dragon in the original games.

Some old guy thought it'd be fun to name the plant 'dragon fruit tree' or some such

Look up Madagascar dragon tree

Gamefreak revealed special "alternate" versions of classic 'mons, exclusive to regions. Including a Dragon-type Exeggcutor.
but... it's a palm tree
I stopped trying to make sense of Pokemon designs after Mr. Mime. They were probably inspired by some myth or another, like Klefki was.
LandoCalrissiano
Context: Exeggutor in the Alola region is a grass/dragon type. Some pokemon change to adapt to different environments. Like Vivillion in XY.
Wonderbland
I also don't understand how people don't get that the climate in the Aloha region would be perfect for Exeggutor's growth.

It's a really awesome concept, but... this specific one is a little questionable.
I love the concept. I double love the ice-variant Ninetails. But this is just nonsensical. The very image of a non-sequiteur.
LuxuryHotline
It's actually a really fun concept they've come up with. Look up the Alolan variants of Sandslash and Ninetales, they look amazing
I love the regional variant idea, but this specific one has me scratching my head.
ShamnusMcfee
I suppose they had to run out of ideas eventually
BACONmakesitBETTER
how is he not a dragon...
only90skidswillgetthis
I mean, you could make a similar case for a lot of pokemon.
Shaows
Game Freak is stupid, instead of making Charizard Fire/Dragon they only made ONE of its Mega forms Dragon-type.
Muffyns
And then mega was dropped anf forgotten about the next game
Millillion
It was probably for balance reasons in Gen 1.
Pootisborn
I don't know how people don't get this. If it was fire/dragon it wouldn't be weak to water.
thatoneguywhoyouthoughtwasryanrenaldssexclamation
A dragon starter? Now that's stupid.
As opposed to 4 Fire/Fighting starters in 4 different games?
It's a good combo.
CoolerBetterFasterStronger
Cause until fairy's came around Dragon were broken as hell

Charizard is the most dragon looking not dragon that ever didn't dragon.

Charizard is in the dragon egg group.
Nahxela
Gyarados up there in contention
AnarchistAbe
Actually pretty on par stylistically with Japanese Dragon design, rather than the traditional (more popular) European Dragon style.
TheSwedishCryptid
Gyarados is more akin to Asian dragons in general. Being a serpent-like dragon.
jdavis1186
Also literally based on Chinese mythology where a carp that can swim up a waterfall will turn into a dragon
His X mega is dragon type.
fireor12
I just got Pokemon Y though.
I prefer his Y mega. Solar beam is broken for him.
TinySatanicHamster
Assuming you don't play: Mega evolutions are a additional evolution that can be triggered in battle but your Pokemon goes back to (1/2)
Normal after the battle. They are super powerful and look fucking badass. (2/2)
You don't play anymore, do you?
Liquidditch
Bro I still play. Its just a hella dweebish thing to say.
Not since gen 4, but I knew of mega evolutions, and I find them to be a silly concept.
Hatixon
Likewise. Seemed to go against the basis of Pokémon where each new design was a new species.
MagicBumbler
I think that they're fucking awesome but everyones entitled to their own opinion I suppose. It takes competitve play to a new level.
arenten
Oh yes, quite right, quite right, I found the addition of "steel" types to be redundant, in my opinion, hmmmm yes. That's how you sound.
"Silly," being a euphemism for "fucking retarded."
Well, most of us tend to disagree with you. We like it. Adds some spice to the game.
