The Fairy type is arguably one of the best defensive types in the game. It has key resistances to the common {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Fighting}} types, giving it resistance to common moves such as Pursuit and Mach Punch; as well as the {{t|Bug}} type, which means a resistance to {{m|U-turn}}. Most of all, it also has a useful immunity to {{t|Dragon}}-type moves (it should be noted, however, that most Dragon-type Pokémon can learn {{t|Steel}}-type moves to address this problem). Its only weaknesses are to {{t|Poison}} and {{t|Steel}}, both of which are rarely used. | The Fairy type is arguably one of the best defensive types in the game.

However, having a fairly low defense stat, when {{t|Steel}} types are used, most fairy types can not stand a single attack. | ||
