I always wondered why all Metal-type Heatran cards (except the very first one) are weak to Fire, instead of Fighting or Water. Being a Lava Dome Pokémon, wich is weak to Fire, isn’t that bizarre?

For the past 10 or so years weakness and resistance has largely been invariable. Unless a card represents an in-game water type, usually the weakness and resistance will always be the same for pokemon of the same type. You get lightning weak Zapdos and fire weak Heatran for this reason. Back in the EX and DPPt eras you would see more variance. Cards representing dragon types might have a colorless weakness or no weakness at all even in the same set, and cards like Bronzong would have a fire resist to represent their heatproof ability. And yes, even Heatran of the time would be weak to water as a metal type card.
Since then it seems like they’ve simplified weakness and resistance to be more consistent so players don’t have to think as much or be as aware of irregularities. Though we do sometimes get cards that continue to break the mold like Sableye not having any weakness

Since SwSh era, Sableye has had weakness like other Pokemon with its type do.
