Gyarados with Water/Dragon would only be weak to dragon, this would have been a big problem in Gen 1(lolgen1) when the only dragon type move was Dragon Rage, effectively making Gyarados have no weaknesses (if he was Dragon/water).
Besides that: We already have extremely overpowered Water/Dragon type (Palkia) and an extremely Mediocre Water /dragon type (Kingdra). I'm not convinced another one is needed.
Infact: I think charizard needs changing more, he really doesn't deserve that 4x weakness to rock.
I think he was suggesting with the hypothetical "type altering" method mentioned earlier
