Calling all Pokemon collectors, newcomers and completionists alike: if your mission is to 100% your Pokedex (to make shiny hunting easier) or if you are in love with the whimsical nature of Fairy-Types: then this list is for you!

Fairy Pokemon are the true behind the scenes characters, as their physical appearance may be cutesy and whimsical, but in battle they can be quite deadly. Just as with the folklore and Grimm tales, fairy types have very similar characteristics. Their habitats are either woodland or grass and they are weak to anything that would endanger their habitat: Poison and Steel type Pokemon. 

Fairy-types may seem like an opponent not worthy of catching, but don’t sleep on their potential. They are a great offense against dark, dragon and fighting types. And defensively they are immune to dragon and ½ resistant to bug, dark and fighting types.

Ranking from the strongest fairy-type Pokemon to the most powerful fairy type, this is the list, based on the best fairy types in all of Scarlet and Violet (DLCs included)...

Pokemon spans from the early 90s onward. Over the course of time, they have made unique changes to the Pokemon and game, but always stayed true to the core fundamentals, (they’ve never been able to walk with you and you’ve never been able to see their physical form outside of a battle.)

Since the early 90s, Pokemon has made tremendous changes to the game: some good and some not so great. With Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, they remained true to the nostalgia of older Pokemon Generations and combined it with delightful additions to the game for an EPIC journey. If you enjoy an open world where you can roam the different terrains and use your analytical skills to strategize in battle, then this game is for you! 

By using choice items, feathers and vitamins, you can level up your Pokemon quickly!
