So basically what you are saying is that every single legendary trio should have been ice/fire/electric then? Did you know that most of the legendaries are based off of some sort of mythology, hm? Perhaps that's the tradition they're setting up here.
Also, do you really have to bash verybody's theories? You say that no one had any but there were some, as you can see.

Because there was never any sort of trend to break, perhaps? There had been one generation of games, so you can hardly call that a trend. Suicune is affiliated with water, and so it is of the Water-type. The only pattern is that of the Legendary Trio; it's nothing to do with their respective types.

Oh, well there's one.

There wasn't really much of a trend being only the second generation. It is in the name too, I suppose, as Sui means water in Japanese.

What "tradition" are you talking about? There was only one generation at that moment so there were not traditions. They made Suicune a water type because they wanted.

As Cham mentioned. Sui was water in Japanese.
Whereby in Chinese/Cantonese China/Hong Kong Sui was aswell named as water.
Maybe it was the reason that Suicune was water type(imo)

Well, maybe it doesn't related with the name.. Sigh

Ok. you seem to be asking for peoples theory's but then when they provide one you angrily bash them,
I've got an answer for you.
BECAUSE THEY FELT LIKE IT.
And as multiple people have pointed out. THE NAMES.
There was no tradition, Did they say there was. i don't think so

Well whaddaya know, there's eight theories right there! Now, lets find out what dictates what exactly a theory is:
Theory
1. a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena: Einstein's theory of relativity.
2. a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.
3. Mathematics. a body of principles, theorems, or the like, belonging to one subject: number theory.
4. the branch of a science or art that deals with its principles or methods, as distinguished from its practice: music theory.
5. a particular conception or view of something to be done or of the method of doing it; a system of rules or principles.
6. contemplation or speculation.
7.
guess or conjecture.

Oh wow, I think all the above posts fit in at least one of these here categories. And you know what, I haven't seen any theories from you at all! You seem so certain about what you think that it can't possibly fall under any of these categories. It's almost like arguing wiht a kid; everything you say is right and everybody else is wrong. You criticise every other person's thought on your question, provided it doesn't agree with you at all, which none have so far.
Tell me, what are you looking for, someone else's opinion or someone who agrees with you, because so far that's the impression I'm getting from your responses.
