Because in the leaks a while ago we found out that Cresselia was originally supposed to be electric or electric psychic type.

Thats my big issue with how Typing is handled in Pokémon. Cubone is pretty much a normal type with a Ground type weapon, if it were me it'd just be Normal type with a Groundworker ability, because sometimes a Pokémon's typing describes its physicality, or it's powers. Grapploct is a good example where it's not Water typing despite living in the ocean, not every aquatic animal can control water, but I also think it'd make sense to be weak to Electric, while Rapid Strike Urshifu is Water typing because it has water, but it's still weak to Electric and Grass despite not being aquatic. Some types like Bug and Dragon simply describe an animal species while others describe special powers, and I've thought about making a list of Defensive typings and Offensive typings because of this, while using those aforementioned animal typings and also Egg Groups, but I don't think it's something that would work in a video game that's anywhere near as balanced as Pokémon is right now.

The whole point of Cursola is that its body is just made up of ectoplasm now and Houndstone being Rock just because of a cartoon tombstone on its head feels too stupid to me. Runerigus is inexcusable though.

Rock is mostly reserved for naturally forming pokémon made of minerals (or ancient pokémon because fossils are hard I guess). stuff made from clay or built by humans usually get the ground typing (like Claydol and Golurk). Runerigus fits in with them.

I don't get those retypes. Often not they're just trivial additions that do not benefit them in any way. Luxray in particular isn't even fast enough to make use from any of the Dark type moves it can learn.

I feel like pulling out Absol as early as they did was so stupid for Dark type discussion because it's actually a hero mistaken for pure evil and yet it's Dark type, didn't even get a type change with the Mega, so what can even be quantified as being worth of the Dark type.
