Let me guess- Belch is Poison-typed because burping is disgusting.

As for Confide, why is it a Normal move, rather than a Dark move, using that logic?

And why is Chatter Flying?

It's Parrot Mimicry in Japanese, apparently, so it makes a bit of sense.

I guess it was because Chatot (who is the only user of said move) is a special attacker and Game Freak wanted some kind of Flying STAB move on it, along with fitting its gimmick of partly being based on a parrot.

One move I never understood the typing of was U-Turn. There's nothing lore-wise that suggests why it's a Bug-type move.

Rest being a Psychic move....why? Is it because sleeping relaxes the mind so it's Psychic? If not I don't get it. I can understand pretty much every other move being a certain type but Rest being Psychic...I dun get it.
