Are there any Pokemon with more than 2 types?
The answer to this question is no, as Pokémon themselves can have up to two types, making them dual-type Pokémon, but there are some exceptions and special cases, such as the Dragon/Ice-type Pokémon Kyurem, which can belong to the dragon, electric, and ice type through its different forms. This unique characteristic sets it apart from other Pokémon, which are typically limited to one or two types.
