>Make it neither Bug nor Poison
The bat is the main part and scorpion is detail. No idea why not flying/poison other than not being Zubat though

Because it's a scorpion, they tend to live in deserts. They hide themselves in the sand to catch their prey.

To differentiate it from the Zubat line.
Johto had weird typings to make the Pokemon different from existing ones, but the designs didn't fit as obviously as they could have. They didn't really TRY to make weird typings that were visibly understandable until Gen V onward.
Xatu was named that way so they'd have a Pokemon for every letter of the alphabet.

Because he can't truly fly, he can only glide. So the ground type was mixed in to "dilute" the flying type.

It pins its tail into the ground so it doesn't get blown away while at rest.
