    First non-Dragon type Salamence since the dragon type was introduced in 2012!

      It’s up for debate as to whether this would be the first non-Dragon type Salamence “since” anything, or simply the first non-Dragon type Salamence ever*. There’s no definite way to be sure if any of the Colorless Salamence in Gen 3 and 4 were Colorless to represent the Flying type, or Colorless to represent the Dragon type.

      *It’s also up for debate as to whether SWSH sets up until Evolving Skies temporarily reclassified the Dragon type as Colorless again, but it seems obvious to me they were teasing the audience. Any Dragon Pokémon printed in pre-EVS SWSH sets was a dual-type in the video games, and for each of the cards in question they chose to assign the card’s type based on the Pokémon’s other type in the games. A cute way to skirt the question until finally bringing the type back in full.
