well, you shouldn't take kit into account more than actual design (looking at blitzcrank there... he should be Electric/Steel), since if you think about it, a pokemon's typing is mostly for defensive purposes, and it's moves' typings are for the offensive purposes.

Blitz for example would be Electric/Steel with a moveset with lots of fighting type moves (and maybe the innate ability Iron Fist...)

Also remember that not every Champ that flies would necessarily have to be flying type, as there's the innate ability Levitate (ex: Malzahar would be a Dark/Psychic with the Levitate ability)
