Strategy Overview

Friend Guard is Clefairy's only niche over Clefable and Togekiss, as it reduces the damage its teammates on the field take. Clefairy also has access to useful support moves such as Follow Me, Heal Pulse, and Helping Hand, which allow it to be a useful addition to a lot of teams. Even though Clefairy cannot viably carry any other items apart from Eviolite, it has a small niche in being slightly bulkier than Clefable with it, which is very useful in many situations, as Clefairy can heal its teammate after taking a hit or redirect very powerful moves that Clefable cannot. Friend Guard also provides an additional damage reduction to powerful spread attacks such as Mega Charizard Y's Heat Wave and Landorus-T's Earthquake. However, Clefairy has very bad offensive stats and finds itself restricted to supportive roles only, which makes it Taunt bait.
