If, like me, you’re a pastel-colour-scheme-all-year-round person, or a fan of the likes of Faefarm on the Nintendo switch, The Teadragon Society Card Game or Flamecraft, you love all whimsy, soft, mystical glittery things, and can’t resist Fairy Pokémon!
Let’s kick things off with Sylveon
I like to think of this lovely creature as a nod to the beautiful trans community, with its blue, pink and white arrays of colour. At 23.5kg and just over 3ft tall, it has such a dainty, swept-back look that makes it so charming. If it couldn’t get any better, it did- it’s willowy ribbons not only give it the look of a ballerina, but sends a soothing aura to calm hostile opponents. Anything that evolves from Eevee must be a firm favourite. Find Sylveon in the Scarlet & Violet collection, the Legends Arceus Nintendo switch game and many more.
In at four: Swirlix
A Pokemon who eats only sweets, making it smell like sweet sweet candy floss! At just over 1ft/3.5kg, and evolving into Slurpuff, this sweetie is a find! What’s more, the evolution happens when an item called “Whipped Dream”, a swirly sweet cream, is used. Find Swirlix in Pokemon sword!
Bronze medal time:
Alcremie. It was very very difficult to place other Pokemon above this unbelievably gorgeous little thing. Evolving from Milcery, transforming from a milky sponge to a strawberry-studded spectacle, it looks delirious. It is just 500g and 1ft tall, it comes in a magnitude of flavours, from matcha cream to rainbow swirl. But don’t be fooled, get on Alcremie’s bad side and you could be hit by bitter cream! Find Alcremie in the Sword & Shield collection.
In at second place: Audino
I couldn’t believe it the first time I saw this Pokémon, just the level of adoration I had. I experienced the same rush of cuteness I get when I see a little puppy, which is saying a lot! Just over 3ft, at 31kg, with shiny, sky-blue eyes, fluffy, curly wurly ears and stumpy little feet, he is just irresistible! The curly ear feelers give Audino fantastic emotional intelligence and even egg-hatching predictions. You can find Audino in many sets, like the Scarlet & Violet- Obsidian Flames.
The top top cutie patootie: Clefairy
Starting as Cleffa and evolving to become Clefable, true pinky perfection! A 2ft long, 7.5kg ball of goodness, with pink flutter wings and the signature curl on top of the head, this Pokémon is wondrous. Showcasing moves like Fairy Wind, Moonblast and Charm, this Pokémon does more than just sit still, look pretty too!
I love this magnificent single: Clefairy POR 094/088 - Holo, showcasing Clefairy eagerly poised to pop starry, shimmer- filled bubbles against a bubblegum cloudy backdrop. The Pokemon: Lillie and Clefairy 100+ Deck Box is an ideal storage solution for cards from games like Pokemon and Lorcana, where Clefairy can be seen smugly posing on holiday on a tropical beach!
