I like it. We need something new in the series!

I think Nintendo wanted to add a new type that everyone is suggesting, but in a different "light". See what I did there? In a sense, this is the different "light" we're getting. I did it again.

I think Fairy might balance out the competitive game, just a bit. Many Dragon types dominate their respective categories. Dragonite, Black Kyurem and Hydreigon for example.

Gardevoir is one that I'm ok with. I mean, it needs a secondary type to match Gallade, right?

Logically, think back to Medieval Times period. Dragons were fictionally slain by the one hero destined to save everyone. As in the "shining light" to save everything. I did it again. Keep a counter.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was strong against Dark either.

I don't get the Gyarados part, really, sorry. Can you clear that up a bit?
