Yeah...I don't usually have flying moves on my Salamence's other than fly...which I rarely use...
Though Dragon/Rock is pretty cool too...

Dragon/Steel would make a lot more sense for Ononokusu because of the Axe and body armor.
 
Dragon/Steel would be pure overkill, as the only Dragon/Steel is an ACTUAL LEGENDARY, Dialga, I think Dragon/Rock would be okay, since it would get STAB (omg stab) on its rock moves so it can down ice types. And remember, if it does in fact have moldbreaker, that would help a ton as well.

I'm not Slaking anymore :(
 
I dunno guys, pure Dragon pseudo sounds awesome and all but there is not that many Dragon-type moves for STAB that pseudos normally utilize. The best one is typically Outrage, and Ono may not even learn that. D: Pseudos are mostly physical, so it's possible he won't get very many good STAB moves if he is indeed physical. Such a fierce design like that usually leads to a physical Pokemon so eh. Unless.. someone has another good idea about it?

He may not even be pseudo material, but I'm going on the rumors here.
​
 
There are some rumours that Tsutaaja evolution name is Hebirudo (may be derived from "hebi" which is snake in japanese)
Pokabu's is Boiruta (may be derived of "boil" and "buta" which is pig in japanese).
Mijumaru's is Kawarai (samurai?).​

Well Hebi is japanese for snake, I don't know what the rest of Tsurtaja's name or the rest mean though...

Okay, so let's analyze things based on appearance now, shall we?

It's apparently a Rock/Dragon of some sort. Now let's assume it is capable of learning Outrage and Stone edge, which it probably most likely will. Knowing Garchomp(which is an uber competitively, as you already know), I'm thinking it was at least be roughly what Ononokusu would be, to a point. At least I know that it'll be deadly in a Sandstorm team of some sort, with or without Sand Veil due to immunity from the Sandstorm. I don't know if its going to learn Dragon Dance or Swords dance(by the looks of it, probably the latter), but knowing either one would probably automatically place it in the spot for OU. Unless, however...its base speed just so happens to be terrible, which is actually quite common amongst rock types(unless it's Aerodactyl or probably Kabutops, but I'm not sure). Then yeah, that would be it's one major weakness there, which then would make it more useful in a TR team than Sandstorm in that case.

Well....I guess that either way, it would be dangerous in some manner. If it has a high base speed, then I know it'll be the next Garchomp. Without it, it'll probably just be a more bulkier Flygon or something.

Again, this all depends if Ono is indeed one of/the pseudo-legendary{ies} of the Isshu region ; and that there is no change in the pseudo tradition. Typically pseudos have either all or most of the moves you stated above, or just an excellent movepool all around [also helping them to the pseudo category]. Most Rock types these days have Rock Polish and massive defenses to help back them up on the battle field when they set up. The Rock Polish would be great if it's speed is potentially low, or even average, and the Dragon dual type would be nice for this as well. Man, Ono would be great if he was dualed with Dragon/Rock.

With that weird stinger-like tail, Ono looks like it could potentially be Dragon/Poison as well. How odd would that be? XD

Kabutops has an average base speed of 80, while Aerodactyl has a massive 130 base speed. Just.. for some statistics. X3

I cannot believe my computer froze to the point where I had to restart when I was writing this.. this paragraph sucks compared to the last one. </3

Why would it be overkill? The only other pokemon with the Dragon/Steel typing is an UBER Legendary. It would be nice to have an OU Dragon/Steel type because of the low amount of weaknesses.

Axes are made out of Steel as is most body armor.

Dragon/Steel would give Ononokusu 2 weaknesses (Fighting and Ground) and 12 resistances (counting poison). A Pseudo Legendary Dragon with no weakness to either Dragon or Ice. He would be a very powerful member of any team.

The Steel type gives Ononokusu more resistances and defenses which allows him to be around longer. The Rock type just gives him more Power with moves like Stone Edge.
 
Yay! More rumors are coming out!
Tsutaaja final evolution is named Kamohebi.
Pokabu final evolution is named Funkabuta.
And Mijumaru final evolution is named Otonakawa.​

If it has high stats, and is Dragon/steel, and has strong moves than I expect that Ononokusu will be uber as well...
 
@magmaruby aquasapphire that's exactly what I was trying to say and don't forget about that mold breaker rumor.

I thought so :)
Yeah if it does that ability it would be able to cancel several opponents, also it seems like a pokemon with Dragon/Steel typing be tough to counter without fighting and ground moves...I was also thinking, what if Ononokoso (not sure if I spelled it right) had Metagross' speed who is the fastest steel pokemon non legendary pokemon (along with skarmory)...it would be too tough to beat...

ps: in case anyone argues with dialga, it sucks too okay. D<

XD! You totally stole that from me in our msn chat. >> <<

Mold Breaker and Dragon/Steel?! Dude that's like.. pushing the pseudo-legendary status to a new level. You may as well make it legendary if you're gonna put all those fancy gadgets on it. D: I definitely don't deny the likeliness of Steel due to it's looks, but don't forget that Rock may be used instead because as I said, that's pushing it for a Pokemon that isn't legendary ; even a pseudo for that matter.

and I definitely don't wanna deal with that monstrosity in OU/Uber...

It does look like a fast Pokemon and one with a high attack, like all pseudo-legends.

Mold Breaker Dragon/Rock with high Atk/Spdwould be fair, but Mold Breaker +Atk/Spd Dragon/Steel......that would be this

Maybe that is what they are trying to do. Game Freak has been paying attention to competitive play a lot more lately.

I'm hoping for another metagross like pseudo.
Dragons are overrated.
 
...because fusion Pokemon of previous generations are very unlikely. :(
 
lol, if pokemon hit the fusion or the DNA evolution road then it will scream digimon.
BTW look at this Kibago fan art., now it looks even more like an onokusu pre-evolution:

You aren't getting what I mean. I was joking that Ononokusu might be a fusion of Garchomp and Metagross in terms of competitive play if he is Dragon/Steel.
