Dragon Pokemons should be weak to Steel type?

Given all the stuff about knights slaying dragons with their weapons (which tend to be made of metal) this weakness would make logical sense, but given what Archer said about how hard Steel-types were partially nerfed (losing the Ghost/Dark resistance) I don't think I'll see it happening sadly.

I Mean i don't know if that would work as well. because some of the dragons designs are looking kid of metalish. so i don't think that would work in the paper but in the game that would work... because Gamefreak are crazy people. idk. maybe it is something that they will add eventually but right now... next gen i don't think that is gonna happen...
Well we arent talking like it will happen but would it make sense rather because gamefreak wont be changing too much in the future with types for a while no doubt but its fun to imagine what makes sense and what really doesnt :D

Dragon Pokemons should be weak to Steel type?

It could work with steel > dragon or even vice versa. If we're following the idea of applying the weaknesses and strengths of dragons found in mythology then it's true that the knight usually slays the dragon. At the same time it could also go two way with them working against each other because really, how does a beast lose to a tiny human with a sword? I've always thought of dragons as some of the more intellectual creatures to know some battle strategy or at least make up brain with overwheming brawn.

While dragons are undeniably one of the best types in the game, with the introduction of fairies they're already suffering at the moment. Giving them a steel weakness would be okay but maybe Gamefreak could hold it off till another time. XD

Of course, the knight slays the dragon but that's not valid everywhere. It's only for bipedal dragons, not for the Sky Dragon Rayquaza! The Dragons are Invincible, they are Legendary but have a soft spot for fairies, so they let the little ones go by...........

How's everyone doing?

A new topic here, previous one remains ones for a while:

Are Dragons the master of all the elements? Given the fact that they have no elemental weakness, Are they the master of them all?!

^ I thought you were away for a while o_O

Anyway, it's actually not that Farfetch'd to say they are the master of all elements. They do resist them all and many Dragons can use most of those type of attacks. Though anything that can use Ice could take a Dragon down, so it's still got that to deal with...

I'd say probably. It's not a sure answer but they're not gods in the way they have no weaknesses. Dragons do have great resistances and movepools though, so its arguable if they're the ruler of all the elements. They get hit by rocks and frozen by ice. Sometimes they get added weaknesses based on their secondary typing. However, they also have a form of retaliation with a variety of different moves, high stats and other forms of defense.

To keep it simple though, yes they're more powerful than all the elemental types. They're not perfect but they're still probably the masters of them all. :]

Should Dragon Pokémon be weak to Steel type?
It does sound like an interesting concept, but I'm not precisely sure as to how it would work, unfortunately.

I suppose it's understandable as to how ice-types have strong effect on them (in media, dragons are portrayed to have a tough time under cold climate), as well as dragons and fairy (at least to some regard), but I don't believe I could think of much reason for steel, aside from it being tough to break, hard-hitting, and so forth. If we go by this route, however, a lot of other types could be treated the same, such as rock and ground.

Plus, adding another weakness to dragon would sort of make them... used less, in a way. Currently, it has three, which many of us would agree is a lot, and if there's one more added, I believe we'd be finding ourselves to be more careful when utilizing dragon-type Pokémon and whatnot; those who are new to the scene would likely stay away from them until they develop more experience. Perhaps I'm looking into this too much, I don't know, haha. Though, I still don't feel that having another weakness implemented would be a good idea in long run.

Hey Nate, welcome to the club! Dratini's one of my long time favourites. If you don't mind me asking, what do you like the most about it? I hold it in high regards for being my first dragon type but the design's pretty sweet too. <3

And that's an interesting point, Ashley! I've never actually realised how many weaknesses dragons have been getting. Sure 3's next to nothing when you compare it to types such as rock or ground but they're dragons. Supposedly one of the best types in terms of anything. I guess having steel resist dragon attacks is also plenty enough, as there can be resistance but not necesssarily strength over another type.

Hi Aslan :D Thanks for accepting me! Well... I like most about Dratini is the general design of the pokemon itself, I mean, who wouldn't like to have a Dratini in their colleciton? Also, I like it's moveset, 'cause even in low levels it can REALLY pack a giant punch ^_^

Yeah, I also like Dratini's design; to me, it looks rather adorable! Sometimes, it could be tough to lead certain dragon-type Pokémon into looking cute, I would imagine, as majority of fans generally expect them to seem tough and confident-looking (including myself), but I feel they've done a great job here. Its puppy-like eyes would be one thing that pulls me into thinking this, and so does its ears, haha.

Nope. Dragons are special. They are rare and powerful, and should be for the special trainers only. If however I could choose once, being a special trainer and all that, I'd go with RAYQUAZA! lol jk Dratini :D

In addition to Dratini being a cute little first form, Dragonite is a pseudo-legendary that I can say looks happy but fierce at the same time. The same can't quite be said for its other 600 stat Dragon-type counterparts, which look flat out nasty and ready for havoc.

Favorite Dragon type/Dragon Pokemon: one word, Hydreigon
Reason for joining club: I like Dragon type Pokemon because they're the strongest type, which come with other types like Dialga(Steel/Dragon) and most of them are Legendary Pokemon and indeed they are Legendary and Invincible :D

What made you love Dragon Pokemon?
They are very strong as well as proud, can't be taken down easily and they have really good looks. I mean have you seen Giratina!

Your first Dragon Pokemon....?
The first ROM i played was Emerald sooo.. i think Raquaza was my first dragon pokemon since i didn't pay any attention to the others.
Feel free to add me to your friends list! Just send me a request :D
If anyone needs help with his or her hack, PM me, I will see to your request :0
Also i am making hack banners for people as long as they put me in their team as the "Banner Artist". I might not make the best banners but i put my heart and soul into it.

Hacks I am supporti:

Welcome to dragon-type fan-club, Zapdos!

Although Rayquaza wasn't my first ever dragon-type, similarly to you, it's also one of my favorites. It's the master of Weather Trio, as fans would like to call it, as it has effect to negate all effects of weather conditions (sun, rain, hail, sandstorm, you name it!), as well as generally boost power of flying-type Pokémon. This is rather powerful, if you ask me.

Its design is very sweet overall, too, at least in my eyes, and its mega-evolution form is even more so. If it were up to me to put together a structure for it, I know I definitely couldn't have done (or at least imagined) it any better.

Yay! Another fan of Hydreigon, like me! Even though it got really cut out for it by Fairy-types in Generation VI, it's still a fun Pokémon to use with its great Special Attack stat, and is one i've always liked even since BW.

And with Rayquaza, that's a legendary that leaves me with awful memories trying to catch it in RSE x_x

Goodra deserves to be a Poison-type, because its pre-evolutions resides in a swamp and it can learn Poison-type attacks. Granted, we already have Dragalge, but that thing isn't very useful at all except for Adaptability (which, admittedly, is pretty yummy). It could also allow it to stand more of a chance against Fairy-types, even though its Special Defense stat is already really high as it is.

I would remove the flying types from the dragons. Just because most of the dragons are already able to fly. Al the flying type does is giving an accent to the flying part.

What happened to this club? New topic:

What type do you want to see paired with Dragon-type?

Either new or one that's been done before, doesn't matter.

I want to see a Bug/Dragon really badly, I just think they could do some really cool stuff with it. I'd also like to see a Poison/Dragon, Dragalge just isn't enough like a dragon to me and I'd like to see a more traditional dragon.

I already talked about how I think the Bug-type would be a cool pair to go with the Dragon-type, since there are quite a few Pokémon already existing that I think would have made neat Bug/Dragon-types, like Haxorus and Yanmega. They'd have quite a few weaknesses but it's one i'd still like to see happen at some point.

There's also the Steel-type, and while we already have Dialga I think it'd be nice to see one that isn't a legendary. It'd cover the Fairy-type weakness that the Dragon-types have, which would be a good bonus. I recall someone said they could imagine Hydreigon getting a Steel-type Mega Evolution at some point, and that's one I find understandable.

What type do you want to see paired with Dragon-type?
We kind of seem to lack in dark-dragon, and I feel it'd be nice to see more of those. Unfortunately, however, they're weak against many things, including fighting, fairy, and dragon itself. Due to this, if they were to introduce something new within this particular type combination, they would likely have to make it so they have chance to withstand good amount of hits. Otherwise, they'd be taken down easily.

Along with above, I would also like to see dragon-fairy, if possible. If they were to put together such a thing, I would imagine this Pokémon to have feathered wings, since fairies tend to relate those kind of wings and whatnot, generally speaking; it would make sense. As for color-scheme, it'd likely be somewhere between pink and purple.

In terms of battling, I believe it would be best if the Pokémon were optimized to take better advantage of special-based moves, since many fairy-type attacks are put on that side.
