Clefable is a bit larger than its pre-evolutions. Its wings are also larger (and come in a deeper shade of pink), though they still seem incapable of flight. Clefable's three fingers lack the nails that it had as a Clefairy and gains an extra clawed toe on each foot.

Clefable are most known for using {{m|Metronome}} in order to execute a random attack. Just like its pre-evolved forms, Clefable is very versatile whether it knows Metronome or not. The flavour text for Clefable states that its sense of hearing is so strong that it can hear a pin drop from half a mile away.

Clefable is just as rare in the wild as its pre-evolutions. They can be found at [[Mt. Moon]], or in other mountains that offer clear views of the moon at night.

Clefable first appeared in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''.  After the large group of {{p|Clefairy}} blasted [[Team Rocket]] away with {{m|Metronome}}, particles of the giant Moon Stone landed on some of the Clefairy, causing them to evolve.
