Statistically speaking, that's not that unlikely. It only takes 23 people to hit a 50/50 chance of sharing a birthday, and this table has redundancies such that different birthdays can map to the same type. Water occurs three times as a secondary, for example. Using that as a baseline, you'd only need 11 14 people to hit the 50/50 chance of a shared type. You were #7.
I'm gonna guestimate this was roughly about as surprisingly as getting tails twice in a row that the probability was .161.
Edit: I was wrong about things on the internet, and for that I am genuinely sorry.

eh? Your STAB attacks are strong against three things, and weak against (or can't hit) 8. You're resistant against 5 attack types, including a double resistance to fighting, but weak to 4, after your types cancel each other out with regards to bug attacks. You'll typically have high speed and special attack, though, and can do dots, so... you're kind of niche, but not bad?

Awesome, I get to be the most upsetting Pokemon:
Girls love the tentacles!
So my birthday generates Water/Poison, which is Tentacruel. Tentacruel is a giant tentacle monster, and the above picture of Misty is from the show when she is literally rhapsodizing and nearly touching herself about how much she loves Tentacruel. This is an episode which launched a hundred fanfics, which I strongly suggest you do not read.

Chinchou/Lanturn (same family) and Wash Rotom. Although only the former is actually Water/Electric. Wash Rotom is an alternate form for Rotom (normally Electric/Ghost) and is Electric/Water, if you think the order matters.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

I"m Grass/Psychic. So my options are Celebi (fuck you event pokemon on US versions), Exeggcute or Exeggcutor. I'll take exploding eggs over waiting in line on specific days to get a douchebag pokemon. Hell, it is one of the stuipidest and weakest of the legendaries.
A list of all the pokemon and their types so far.
Incidentally Electric/Ice is the only mix that doesn't exist.

Celebi is the last of the event-only pokemon I liked*. It's cute! And has extra plot relevance in Mystery Dungeon.

> Incidentally Electric/Ice is the only mix that doesn't exist.

Ghost/Normal. Ghost/Rock. Poison/Psychic. Poison/Dragon. There are heaps.
*I don't mind the "This is Pikachu, except it knows Fly and Surf" or "This Pichu has Pikachu ears - a special graphic for an otherwise normal pokemon" or "So i herd u liek mudkips, have a mudkip with Magic Guard as the Ability and Flamethrower as a move" or whatever. Pokemon you can normally get, but with special abilities/movepools.

Celebi was the first legendary I ever one-shotted (with a Typhlosion no less,) so I can't take it seriously as a Pokemon regardless of how cool the HeartGold/SoulSilver event with it was.
Which reminds me, I should write the next chapter in my "review" of Black 2 in the Video Games section.

Please do. Also note my request for the list of B2/W2 exclusives so I can decide which to get.
Or at least as reagards Sneasel, Buizel, Mawile, Lilligant, Misdreavous. Those would probably be my favourites. They're cute. So if any of those are exclusive to one or the other, I'll need to know.

Of those, only Lilligant is exclusive, to White 2, but there's an in game trade you can get it in, so have fun buying whichever you choose.
