Red's Clefairy: Difference between revisions

Clefairy debuted in the first chapter, ''[[PM001|Introducing the Pokémon Clefairy!!]]'' where he was a wild Pokémon living in a field. Red, racing to get to [[Professor Oak]]'s lab before his rival {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}} does, decides to take this field as a shortcut where he finds a wild {{p|Nidoran♂}} and the Clefairy who attempt to attack him. Clefairy drops some coconuts on Red from a tree above, only to shortly fall off and drop onto the Nidoran♂, knocking him out. Red thanks Clefairy for the help and continues to run for the lab, finding that Green had already made it there. While the three discuss about Professor Oak's favor of completing the [[Pokédex]], Clefairy bursts into the lab and is yelled at by the professor. When given the choice of which starter Pokémon he wants, Red decides to take Clefairy with him, which thrills the Pokémon greatly. Green is however skeptical that Red can be a successful Trainer with a Clefairy, and has his chosen starter Pokémon [[Green's Charmander|Charmander]] attack the Clefairy, setting his tail on fire and causing the Pokémon to run around frantically, which sets the entire lab on fire and enrages Professor Oak.

In ''[[PM003|Bring Down the Powerful Opponent Onix!!]]'', Red attempts to challenge the Gym Leader [[Brock#In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga|Brock]] in a battle, but Clefairy flees after seeing his [[Brock's Steelix#In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga|Onix]] shortly after witnessing Green and his Charmander being thrown out the Gym, which forces Red to drag Clefairy back. Inside, the two learn of Brock's Pokémon collection, and find out that Clefairy's cousin Pikachu is also a part of it. This angers Clefairy and gives him the courage to fight Brock's Onix in a battle, which Clefairy prolongs by using an assortment of tricks. Clefairy later manages to defeat Onix by drawing his picture onto its tail, causing Onix to chase its tail until it becomes dizzy, and becomes knocked out after Clefairy smashes a fallen pillar on its head. By winning the battle, Clefairy's cousin is freed from Brock's collection and joins Red's team.

Clefairy evolved into a {{p|Clefable}} in ''[[PM023|Clefairy Evolves... At Last?!]]'', but had later [[devolve]]d back into a Clefairy in the same chapter.

Clefairy has continued to travel with Red in Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova.
