We do believe in fairy Pokémon, we do, we do. Not only are fairy-types in Pokémon Go gorgeous to look at (seriously, just look at Sylveon and Alolan Ninetales), but they also pack a mighty punch on the battlefield, and can wipe the floor with the opposition under the right circumstances, while most of them happen to have a secondary-type too, which broadens their horizons. So, who exactly is the fairest of them all?
If it’s not a fairy that you need, you could surf some waves with these water Pokémon, search the shadows with dark Pokémon, or treat every day like it’s Halloween and see what mischief you and these ghost Pokémon can get up to.
Here are the best fairy Pokémon in Pokémon Go:
Togekiss
Fast attack: Charm
Charged attack: Dazzling gleam
If you want a solid fairy Pokémon, Togekiss is one you really should consider. It is a force of nature, and we strongly suggest you put the effort in and learn how to evolve Togepi to make sure you can have one on your team, especially if you’re in the market for a fairy Pokémon. In Pokémon Go, Togekiss is a hard hitter that can also withstand some damage, a pretty great combination if you ask us.
Togekiss comes in at number 468 in the Pokédex, debuting in generation four, two generations after the introduction of its first stage, Togepi. According to its various Pokédex entries, it’s quite rare to see a Togekiss as these docile creatures prefer to avoid strife and conflict, which, sadly, the world is full of. Still, if you’re one of the lucky ones, Togekiss is regarded as a “bringer of blessings,” so you might come into some good fortune, especially if you’re a respectful individual who wants to do good in the world. Or it might simply mean that you’re in a land where peace reigns over conflict.
Besides being a fairy Pokémon, Togekiss falls under the flying Pokémon category, too, so it’s wise to consult our flying Pokémon weakness guide should you face one.
Mega Gardevoir/ Gardevoir
Fast attack: Confusion
Charged attack: Dazzling gleam
Gardevoir is arguably one of the most powerful fairy Pokémon in any game it appears in, since the addition of its secondary typing in generation five, and that goes for Pokémon Go, too. Plus, just look at her; what a gorgeous and ethereal being. If you want a solid fairy-type that can withstand damage and dish out a vicious assault through special attacks, all at top speed, this is the ‘mon for you – plus, this Pokémon really does look good when it picks up the win. So majestic.
While we maintain that Gardevoir is a solid choice regardless, we have to point out that its mega evolution might just be the best fairy Pokémon in Pokémon Go. Period. Mega Gardevoir can reach a staggering 5,101 CP, boasting a huge 326 attack stat, demonstrating its prowess in battle. Plus, this ‘mon gets a nice boost in cloudy and windy weather.
Remember, the female final stage of the Ralts evolution line is also partly a psychic Pokémon, so make sure you read our psychic Pokémon weakness guide to punch some holes in her defense.
Shadow Granbull
