I think because they are more special. More cool. Stronger.

i agree with Pokemaster and i have to agree with you too Hex. I love ghost pokemon and you have to just get used to their rarity *shruggs* there's nothing that can be helped about that.

Answer 1

Ghost types are supposed to be rare creatures. I mean if they had Ghosts floating around all over the place it wouldn't be the same game.

The same goes for Dragon and Ice types, they are meant to be mythical creatures, as opposed to, say, Water and Bug types which are based on the millions of species in the real world.
