== Offensive and Defensive Charactaristics ==
I am going to dispute the content of the offensive and defensive charactaristics section of this page. There is too much opinion and use of competitive meta analysis.
"Fairy is widely considered to be the best defensive type" - opinion
"it has a '''key resistance''' to the '''powerfull fighting type''' " - competetitive meta
"resistance to pursuit and U-Turn" - competitive meta
" It has a '''usefull''' immunity to Dragon" - slight opinion (not too bad)
"steel and poison types are rarely, if ever, used offensively" - competitive meta and opinion
"leave them open to the '''common bullet punch'''" - competitive meta (bullet punch is not common by non-competitive standards: It is useable by only 8 pokemon families)
"very strong on offense as well" - opinion
"super effective against Dragon, Dark, fighting, all of which are otherwise great types defensively" - competitive meta
"making fairy and ground a potentially popular attacking combination" - competitive meta
I suggest a total rewrite of this section, and any other sections of type pages that are similarily full of opinion and competitive meta. Taking a look at the Dragon Type page charactarisitcs, that is exactly what this section should be like.
