Be Legal in official tournaments? I am asking this because I painted my Phoenix , as you can see in my profile picture. I want to battle with my Phoenix but I am not sure if I can due to the paint.

That's the official ruling. I don't think we'd actually ban him from seeing paint on a layer that he wasn't trying to use in an official tournament match. If he did try to use this Phoenix layer in a tournament match, then we'd have a problem.

It makes no sense to not allow to paint launchers cause it shows style and originality. Beys I understand but launchers come on. Let's say I lose my launcher and it has a red eyes black dragon painted on it. I know it's mine so it helps to find your launcher if you lost it at a tournament.

I agree, customizing a launcher shouldn't be a problem. I doubt it adds extra weight to balance out the beys spin or something stupid like that. As you said beys are understandable, but launchers should be fine and shows originality and character.

It makes sense right I can't believe wbo tournaments does not allow to paint your launch it makes it good for you if your launch gets stolen by someone. You can say my launcher has a for example a red eyes black dragon on it.

Basically, small doodles, stickers, and other such decorations should be fine. As for the Beyblades themselves, the reason has already been stated: it's possible to modify your Bey's performance to a marginally better level, which could make a big difference in a mirror match, thus being unfair.
