In my mind these are essentially the same thing. Ever since I was a kid playing Red, it annoyed me so much and I still think about it sometimes.

    dragon vs. fire (dragons are literally best known for producing fire) and dark vs. ghost (ghosts seem like creatures that have a lot to do with darkness) bothered me more tbh

      This two only make sense in Japan I think.

      Dragon with fire is more of a west thing. It’s make sense for Dragon to resist lighting, fire and water since is what they are associate in Asia, Pokémon doesn’t have a wind type, maybe they should resist flying? Dark is the evil type and ghost is not always evil.
