New Fairy Type Pokemon X & Y Changes and Weaknesses

Posted by Anthony Mango Tuesday, June 18, 2013
With Pokemon X and Y, it has been announced that there will be a brand new type of Pokemon to go along with the games: the FAIRY type.

List of Fairy Type Pokemon Generation Pokedex


Not much is known about this type yet, other than how it was made to help counteract the Dragon type and that Pokemon of past generations will be retconned into having this type to help expand the roster.

So far, there have only been a few confirmations of which Pokemon will be given the Fairy type, but let's just go ahead and start speculating on other ones that might make the cut, shall we?

NOTE: The Pokemon in bold pink have already been confirmed.

9. Togepi
10. Togetic

Will all of these Pokemon end up being the Fairy type? I highly, HIGHLY doubt it. But if you take a look at that list, you'll see that they all are fairy-esque. It would be difficult to take something like Togekiss, which already has two types, and just eliminate the Flying or Normal type from it to fit Fairy in there, but it isn't outside of the realm of possibility for it to happen.

You might also be thinking that there are too many Normal types here that could be replaced...and I agree. Still, there are plenty of other Normal-type Pokemon out there in other forms that aren't being touched here, like Miltank, Raticate and the ridiculous amount of Normal/Flying birds.

Which Pokemon do you think will end up having the Fairy type added to them? Leave a comment below!
