Strategy Overview

At first glance, Clefairy appears to be outclassed by other Fairy-types; however, Eviolite and Calm Mind can easily make up for its lackluster bulk, and can switch into the majority of special attackers such as Floatzel. Magic Guard allows Clefairy to easily set up on defensive Pokemon, and Poison- and Steel-types, Clefairy's two weaknesses, are not very common in the PU metagame. Clefairy also has a big movepool, with access to decent coverage in Flamethrower and Stored Power, along with support moves such as Soft-Boiled, Stealth Rock, and Thunder Wave. Unfortunately, it is not bulky enough to comfortably take strong hits such as Stoutland's Return.
