Gamefreak likes to put pointless types onto some Pokemon so that we can have muh all type combinations fullfilled at some point. But most of the time they are just fucking high while designing stuff and just hit their keyboard until they get some type and random stats for the mon.

GF has multiple people with different goals working on the typings
one of them tries to make decent combinations, which either become good pokemon or get shafted by shitty stats
a couple of them try to integrate typing with lore or the concept of the pokemon
a considerable number of them just think of marketing purpouses or dex type balancing
most of them just do puns.
and keep in mind, if I'm not mistaken, the designer often don't get to choose the typing of their pokemon (see frillish and its evo)

I don't get the Koffing box
>happiny is pink and cute, why isn't it fairy?
You know what Lurantis is based on, right?

Koffing box:
poison cloud is no flying type.
sun / moon meteors are no flying types either.
other meteor is.
Oh god its those kids again that think Luxray should be dark because it's black, fuck. Dark type is for evil or cunning pokemon, how hard is it do understand?
Also exeggutor is dragon because of the pun and because dragon type in pokemon means "high life energy being", not reptilian fire breather. Exactly as its dex entry describes, have you ever read the dex or is it hard to read with ADHD?

because psychic took priority
There is nothing wrong with Lurantis, Azelf, Bellosom, Koffing, Graveler and Gigalith
The only ones that they missed is happiny should be fairy type like the others.
