The top ten Fairy Pokémon, ranked
From Togepi to Clefable, here are the top ten Fairy Pokémon of all time, ranked from worst to best.
Ever since they first appeared in the world of Pokémon, Fairy-types have been a major point of contention among fans. In a way, their introduction in Gen 6 was crucial to reinvigorating the Pokémon formula, which had become a little predictable, at least in the competitive circuit. Making these ‘mons hit Dragon, Dark, and Fighting-types super-effectively though? Arguably a bit much.
Still, it’s difficult to refute just how important Fairy Pokémon have become to the series now, propelling Steel-types into the upper echelon of competitively viable Pokémon while simultaneously lifting an underused type like Poison out of obscurity. That’s not to mention how great some of the best Fairy-type Pokémon are in general, including both newer ‘mons designed with Fairy in mind and existing fan-favourites who retroactively had their typing changed to include Fairy as a hybrid part of them.
Because of this, we’ve decided to pick out the top ten Fairy Pokémon and rank them in order of how good they are. As with our lists of the best Fire Pokémon, best Dragon Pokémon, and so on, every evolutionary family is only allowed to be represented by one Pokémon from it. If Azumarill makes the cut, then Azurill and Marill are out. Not that any of those ‘mons made the top ten anyway.
They did make the honourable mentions though, which are as follows:
