#### dragon type the most odd and neglected type(more then ghost!!!!)

So anyways dont you think dragon type should be a bit less neglected?Theres barly any dragon type pokemon and moves.
Dragon is strong against dragon?That sounds a bit stupied to me!
Maybe it could be like this in what dragon attacks are good and bad against:
dragon>water
dragon=fire
dragon>grass
dragon<ice
dragon=electric
>super effective
<not very effective
=not very effective but its somthing like water and ice.Both arent strong against eachover.
also:
dragion rage
dragon breath
twister
outrage
the only dragon attacks and half of them suck bad.
outrage is good but cuases cunfusion for you and dragon breath is… a so so attack.Pretty good but it isnt strong against anything but dragon.
how about more dragon attacks?Post idea's!

yesh!
lets hoep the attacks arent crap like twister(it only does "ok" dmg if oponment is in the air but…)
Still the dragon type attacks type advantage is a little odd.
They are strong agaisnt themselfs and that makes no sense.In storys has a dragon ever had advantage over its own species?
Nope!
It should be changed a bit so it can have its own type advantage =D
also i got a idea for diamond and pearl
2 abilitys like in mystery dungeon!
Heh a lightning dragon pokemon with lightning absorb which increases speciel attack and lightning rod =D
owned!

Think of it this way… very few types resist Dragon. And furthermore, many Dragons have access to a Fire move to hit Steels with.
Of course, things are more complicated then that… but the general idea is that Dragon can deal neutral damage to most targets easily. In a game that is largely about outflanking your opponent, a "wildcard" type like that can be very useful.

Actually, dragon types are renowned for their high attack stat.
Also, I can't think of anything else they should be super effective against. Dragons themselves wouldn't be strong against land, ice, etc, because that would be a fire type doing that.
Besides, have you seen Diaruga yet? Almost everything that the steel type doesn't take out, the dragon type does

Couldent dragons have somthing so that they still get to do more dmg with fire?
example,grass does 1.5 more dmg with grass type attacks.
If the scripting was possible, in the next game after diamond and pearl wouldent it be a good idea for fire attacks to get multiplied by 1.5 from a dragon type?

Good idea. It would be cool if that did happen.

Dragon types aren't neglected…Dragons are supposed to be "rare and mystical" That is why there isn't a lot of them and why the few of them are so strong.
