This first happened when i saw Phanpy, I thought that it was a water type because elephants have the power to spray water out of their trunks... and maybe because it would make more sense if it was.

Sandshrew (Just Ground) should have been made a dual poison type, because some shrews have poison in them...

If you agree or have your own, then please reply.

Psyduck + Golduck should have been Water/Psychic
Torchic + Combusken should have been Fire/Flying
Mawile shoul have been Steel/Dark
Seviper should have been Poison/Dark
Kyogre should have been Water/Ice with the Levitate ability
Groudon should have been Ground/Fire

All 1-type electric types should have been fire aswell, eg. Electrike, Manectric, because electricity causes fire =/

I got a few of my own....shouldn't Charizard be a dragon type instead of Fire/flying...Let's see of the facts leading that way....Charizard looks like a Dragon. Dragons can fly. And Dragons breath fire in myths. And there's Ralts...shouldn't it be a grass type, it looks grassy enough...

Oh and Urm...what was it's name...of yeah...about Combusken...I disagree...Combusken,... Comes from Combustion+Ken...Ken is japanese for fist...or so I've heard...and combustion is sorta like fire made from air...

Actually, I thought Combusken was Combust + Chicken...but maybe that's just me :P

Here are the pokemon that I think need to have types changed:

Gyarados: should be Water/Dragon
Forretress: should be Metal/Water
Ninetales: Should be Fire/Ghost
Glalie: Should be Ice/Dark
Venomoth: Should be Psychic/Poison

...and that's about all I can think of :P

I dissagree as well. It needs to be Fighting Fire, because of the moves it learns, and besides, HOW could it fly without wings???

I think voltorb should be steel/electric...

Also, Bulbasaur family should be Plant/Normal type, because they said they CANT classify it as a plant, so, it shold be plant/normal type.

voltorb/electrode should be electric/steel. It looks quite metal.
Bulbasaur- is a seed pokemon. Bulbasaur could have been grass/ground.
Ursaring- looks like a normal/fighting type.
Natu- "because its wings aren't fully grown yet, it has to hop to get around around." I think natu should have been pure psychic or psychic/normal
Shellder- water/rock type. It has a hard shell!
Dunsparce- As pointless as it is, dunsparce should have been a ground type.
Sneasel- I have no idea why sneasel is dark/ice. Maybe just pure dark would have been better.
Nidoran (m/f) /nidorina/nidorino- Every member of the nidoran family should be poison/ground. Why is it only nidoking/nidoqueen?
Arbok- could have been poison/ground, not quite sure of this though.
Doduo/dodrio- pure normal types maybe, since they cannot actually fly.
Clamperl- water/rock because of its shell
Glalie- Ice/rock, go on, tell me glalie does not look like a rock type
vigoroth- should be normal/fighting.
Geodude/golem- both look like pure rock types. I'm letting graveler off though.
Crobat either dark/flying or dark/poison. It just looks like a dark type with the mean expression.
Nosepass- Since nosepass acts like a compass, and a compass is magnetic, it should be rock/electric. Dont believe me? Go and ask magnamite or magneton.

That's about it for now, I also agree with many that have already been posted.

There is one that I'm surprised that no one else has said so far that is always bugging me. Anorith/Armaldo- Why Rock/Bug? It would make much more sense if they were Steel/Water. They learn Steel and Water moves, and they look like they have steel armor, and the ability to swim.

Has anyone forgotten the only starter in R/S that was a dual type. Grovyle and Sceptile should have been Grass/Dark. Masquerain should of stayed Water/Bug and have been given Levitate as an ability. C'mon! Does that sweet little bug seem Intimidating to you? Other than that, everyone else has said my ideas.

Sceptile wouldnt need to be Dark if it was Dual Grass and Poison like all the other Normal Grass Starters.

I think it made perfect sense to make mudkip a water/ground type.
Treecko couldn't possibly be a dual type and torchic was fine as just pure fire type (since it cannot actually fly)
I agree on masquerain definitely, but i do not see much point in making sceptile/grovyle dark types. They don't really suit dark types.

For Nosepass I'm not really feeling electric but steel.. compasses.. steel. I rest my case *sits back down*
I see your point. Even though nosepass doesn't really look like an electric type, or it just doesn't seem right... It still makes perfect sense to make it rock/electric.
That's just my opinion though.

Hoothoot/noctowl- Should be dark/flying, since they are owls (or a resembalence) and owls do come out at night time.

If Flygon could learn a bug move, I could see Dragon/Bug.

Glalie seems Ice/Dark to me.

Crobat being dark/poison with levitate would ROCK! No weaknesses! I mean, sure the dex talks about Crobat flying, but Flygon has "fly" in its name yet lacks the flying element.
