I always have to think twice when I see Azumarill (or anything in that line) or Wigglytuff Clefable. In the latter, the strategy is somewhat backwards, as my previous instinct was always to whip out a Fighting move, but now Fighting is ineffective against Wigglytuff Clefable. Thankfully, the only ones who have tripped me up so far are those who I didn't know about the retyping.

I was thinking this just yesterday. And THAT'S why I printed out a list of all the Fairy Types I wasn't present in 1st Gen to experience Magnemite's retyping and whatnot, so this is my first time getting readjusted.

I think someone could make a parody guidebook...

Something like "How To Tell Between Normal, Fairy, Grass, and Psychic-type Pokémon".

(Yep, that's me.)

Jigglypuff is the only one I've forgotten about so far.

Due to the addition of Fairy-type there are times where battles just stop so that I can determine a weakness, haha. It's a pretty unique feeling, since I haven't felt it since Gen. 2 when I was trying to learn the new types and how certain match-ups had changed. I'll go up against a Mr. Mime or Klefki and run through just about every type trying to figure out weaknesses. The nerfing of the Steel-type sure doesn't help me out when dealing with Klefki. :X

I keep thinking that Huntail is Water/Dark for some reason.

Fairies aren't too annoying for me, I just don't agree with Granbull being a Fairy type.

Let me sum it up for you 50% of the time

Chesnaught used Hammer Arm on [retyped Pokémon]!
It's not very effective...
"CRAP THAT'S RIGHT FAIRY TYPES!"

Sometimes i forget what is fairy and who isnt. But some of these new double type combos get me sometimes. (mostly the normal/electric typing)

Nah~

I got use to fairy types pretty quick, but mostly because i'm training a bunch of em. The only way fairy types have thrown me off is by botching up my normal type team, seeing as how a buncha normal types are now fairy types instead. :T

I have trouble remembering most of the weaknesses and advantadges that the Fairy-type has. It can be especially troublesome remembering what is weak to Fairy with a Slurpuff on my team.

As for weaknesses, all I really know are Steel and Poison. (And apparently, Ghost? I forget.)

Personally I've had less defensive issues with Fairy typing and more offensive issues. What I mean by which is the dreaded fact that I now have more reason than ever to fear Poison and Steel type pokemon and moves for their offensive capability. Especially now that a load of Fighting type pokemon can learn Poison Jab (Hawlucha great example of a clutch side-move if anyone was wondering).

When I see a dominant Fairy type now, I have to think "Okay, so do not use Dragon type moves until further notice, attempt to not use Dark, Fighting, or Bug, and boy howdy, I wish the Pokemon Bank was open so I could import my Gen IV Arbok into the scene for MVP status."

Also, when a Fairy's out, remember that almost all of them can learn Misty Terrain and just say no to status conditions.

Yeah, I didn't know Bug didn't work on Fairy. So, I used a Bug move on Gardevoir thinking I'd take it out but noooope. No Super-Effective.

A friend used Dragon Claw on my Azumarill once. His Garchomp died afterwards.

For some reason I keep thinking Fairy is like a second Psychic type that's immune to Dragon. Really got to get over that if I want to be doing X and Y competitive battling :X

After looking through the Fairy egg group, I'm kind of surprised Skitty and Delcatty weren't retyped to Fairy. It seems like it could have been a viable candidate.

700 HP, neutral damage from Fighting and Crunch and weak only to Steel and Poison, where the only reliable moves have base power of about 80 or is a Special attack.

Actually, I kind of want to see that happen . . .

Yes, ughhhh. :c I'd played Black and also White 2 before I'd gotten Y on launch day to reacquaint myself with the type chart from previous gens so that way I'd only have to make smaller adjustments in my head, but it didn't help. I still mess up stuff with gen 6 and the Fairy type. :C
