I think Mime is Fairy because of those dex entries where you have to BELIEVE the invisible walls are real in order for them to become real. It's a Tinkerbell situation
Fairy has no conceptual basis, it's just slapped on random shit to fill a quota. there is nothing fairy has that isn't covered by another type, except food, but if food is the only unique aspect it has then why the fuck is it called Fairy type.
Oh my goooood, shut the FUCK UP already, I goddamn hate you anti-Fairy people so much. 10 years isn't enough time for you to grow the fuck up evidently. It's not the fucking food Type moron, it's the sweetness Type. Fairies are "sweet". Maybe shut the fuck up.
>they're all just pink shit!!!
Invalid claim. You can count, less than 50% of Fairy Types are pink. This is FAR less monocolor than several other Types.
>they don't make sense!!!
Invalid claim, Fairy is easily one of the most thematically broad and fleshed-out Types we have. They consistently share themes such as
>flowers/mother nature >sensing emotion and/or soothing it >prankster fae deceptive tricky bullshit >heals people >being a guardian of something (surprisingly consistent) >the moon >becomes autistic and freaks out when one specific rule they care about is violated, like many old fae tales >sweetness (sweet taste, smells, etc, to thematically convey their "sweet" personality) >is an actual literal fairy/sprite/leprechaun/gnome/pixie etc >is traditional fairytale/fantasy creature, mermaid goblin unicorn etc >love/heart/compassion >purity/angelic-ness >blessings/good fortune
You may gripe about some of those but fuck off, I don't care. You get the point. By no means do they "not make sense", Fairy Types have a lot of thematic cohesion. You will find upon honest analysis that Ghost and Dragon Types make at LEAST equally as much sense as Fairy Type does.
>they're mostly just cute girly bullshit!!!
Invalid claim. Not because this is wrong. It's right. It's invalid because that's a fucking moronic dumbass thing to take issue with. If Dark can be all serious edgy bullshit, then nothing is wrong with Fairy being cute girly bullshit. Stay mad, I don't give a fuck about your delicate emotions.
VALID claim....... But you're disingenuous when you say this. You voice no problems with Steel clearly being absurdly overpowered. You have nothing to say about Water being an S Tier Typing for 25 years straight. You just use Fairy Types' relative overpowered-ness as an EXCUSE, rather than you ACTUALLY caring about a Type being too good. Your underlying logic is bullshit, because if overpoweredness is what you ACTUALLY cared about then you'd be complaining about Water and Steel. So shut the fuck up.
Come to think of it, that's sort of the ONLY thing you fucking cringey manchildren do. Fucking WHINE. Oh, they're all pink? Guess what fuckface, Types like Fire, Water or Electric have FAR worse Type = color syndrome. Aww but that's not ACTUALLY what you care about, is it? You just SAY they're "all pink" so you can pretend there's a valid criticism here, when there is none. You do not care about the underlying logic you claim to care about. All you really care about is they're SPECIFICALLY pink. Which triggers you, because your ego and masculinity is retardedly fragile. You're a fucking retard beta male who will sob like a little crybaby bitch whenever he sees the color pink, because he thinks it THREATENS him. Grow a pair of balls you fucking loser, you are not more of a man for violently attacking anything pink and adorable and sweet, you are less of one.
3/3
Every time you pull this childish crap where the mere presence of a cute pink thing makes you get all hostile and defensive, everyone in the vicinity cringes and your pathetically transparent insecurity. Holy shit, WE GET IT, you have a really tiny penis and you REALLY want us to know. Shut the fuck UP. What respectable man feels threatened by a goddamn fairy?? Do you have any fucking idea what an embarrassment you are? It's no wonder you don't get laid or have any fucking friends, no one wants to be around someone who acts like this. You're an insecure little homosexual, your masculinity is as fragile as thin glass. No one gives a single fuck if you associate with something feminine and pink. Grow some balls.
What's that? Fairy Types "don't make sense"? They make EXACTLY as much sense as Ghost and Dragon does. Don't hear you complaining about them too often. Come again? They're all just cute and girly? Oh odd. That's funny, I don't seem to recall you ever complaining about 98% of Dark Types just being black and edgy. Gee I wonder why. What do Dark Types have, again?

Fuck ALL of you people.
I don't really have any strong feelings for or against the Fairy type, but you're high of off copium if you think Fairy isn't thematically inconsistent.
A fair number of those things you yourself listed don't have any connecting thread with each other. What does the moon have to with sensing emotion? What does being autistic have to do with physical sweetness?
For every fairy type that fits into whatever overarching theme fairyfags try to trick everyone (including themselves) into believing actually exists, there's another one that has nothing to do with it. Oh, fairy types are supposed to be based on traditional fey tales? Then why is Azumarill, which is just supposed to be an aquatic rabbit, a fairy type? Are they based of off nature spirits? Then why are Mr. Mime and Magearna fairy types? Is supposed to just be the cute and feminine type? Then is why is Grimmsnarl a fairy type while Pokemon like Delcatty and Cherrim aren't?
>Ghost and Dragon Types make at LEAST equally as much sense as Fairy Type does
Ghost maybe, but not Dragon. But even if that is the case, most of the thematic aberrations in both of those types didn't exist until after Fairy type was introduced. They maintained consistent conceptual bases for years before Fairy was introduced, whereas Fairy was fucked from the onset. The only type that was on the same level as fairy pre-2013 was Psychic. You could also count Normal, but I don't think that's fair[y] since it's supposed to the "this Pokémon can't be anything else" type.
>Every time you pull this childish crap where the mere presence of a cute pink thing makes you get all hostile and defensive
No one ITT ever did that. Milotic is my [second] favorite Pokemon, pink is one of my favorite colors, and I also like Sanrio and MLP. Not everyone who disagrees with you is the strawman that lives in your head.
Why are Kingdra, Altaria, and Flygon all Dragon types? One’s a seahorse, one’s a bird, and one’s an insect. Yes, they all have bullshit lore reasons for technically being “dragons” but those reasons are no less ridiculous than most fairy types’ reasons for being fairy types. Typing doesn’t have to be internally consistent in pokemon.
the difference is that the lore behind those dragon types ties it back to the condensed concepts of the dragon type. big lizards, raw power, and having the word "dragon" in your name.
The lore behind fairy-types ties them back to the condensed concepts of fairies. If a seahorse, a bird, and a bug can all belong to the same “type” of monster as Dragonite, Salamence, and Haxorus, then that makes no more logical sense than a cake, a witch, and a unicorn belonging to the same type as each other.

Not that I give a fuck about you or respect your intelligence enough to presume this matters, but for the people other than you that aren't braindead:
>a seahorse
Seahorses are called water dragons in Asiatic countries
>a bird
Altaria is literally based directly on a dragon. It's not the typical depiction of a dragon that you 80 IQ American brain can comprehend but Altaria literally is directly based on a dragon >a bug
Antlions have a common nickname, sand dragons. That EXACT term is the entire basis on which Flygon was conceptualized in the first place, that's why it's not Bug Type. It's not merely an antlion. It's "sand dragon" taken literally and given a fantasy spin. Ground/Dragon. Sand dragon.
>a cake
Fits the "sweetness" theme. Also this evo line references alchemy/sorcery in comparison to cooking. Because alchemy basically IS cooking with a bit of bullshit magic thrown in.
>a witch
What? Why would it not be fitting for a witch to have magic fae powers? The fuck? Also Hatterene is based on a SPECIFIC witchlike myth, and coincidentally the same word in the same language is used to describe cotton candy. Pokemon has made MULTIPLE Pokemon Fairy Types because they resemble cotton candy, also called fairy floss. This is the reason many Fairy Types have a pink, blue and white color scheme. Hatterene is supposed to be a cotton candy witch as a pun on the legend it's based on

Assuming you’re the person who wrote the 3 essay-length posts upthread…I’m literally in agreement with you. You’ve misread the post you’re replying to.
>What does the moon have to with sensing emotion? >why is Azumarill, which is just supposed to be an aquatic rabbit, a fairy type?
Japanese fairy tale moon rabbits. >why are Mr. Mime and Magearna fairy types?
Mr. Mime is an elf, which is synonymous with fairies in most languages, and Magearna is a heart-powered machine. >why is Grimmsnarl a fairy type
It's an imp/gremlin.
>A fair number of those things you yourself listed don't have any connecting thread with each other
Homie what the fuck am I reading on my screen right now, are you THAT dumb?? What fucking mental gymnastics are you doing where I say "Fairy is thematically consistent, here look at all these different themes that literally dozens upon dozens of them have in common" and YOUR FUCKING RESPONSE unironically was to sit here and point out that the concept don't relate to each other. Motherfucker, WHO SAID THEY DID? What fucking relevance do you think this has??? Does EVERY Psychic Type have a cosmic/astral theme? No. Do MANY of them do and is it thematically consistent theme that shows up repeatedly in many Psychic Types? Yes. So it's a thematically consistent aspect of Psychic Types ISN'T IT MOTHERFUCKER

No, Psychic is whatever the fuck GameFreak wants it to be, just like how Fairy is whatever the fuck GameFreak wants it to be but is primarily the "Girl Type".
Wrong
Mr. Mime doesn't fit into Fairy at all then
I think Mime is Fairy because of those dex entries where you have to BELIEVE the invisible walls are real in order for them to become real. It's a Tinkerbell situation

For every fairy type that fits into whatever overarching theme fairyfags try to trick everyone (including themselves) into believing actually exists, there's another one that has nothing to do with it. Oh, fairy types are supposed to be based on traditional fey tales? Then why is Azumarill, which is just supposed to be an aquatic rabbit, a fairy type? Are they based of off nature spirits? Then why are Mr. Mime and Magearna fairy types? Is supposed to just be the cute and feminine type? Then is why is Grimmsnarl a fairy type while Pokemon like Delcatty and Cherrim aren't?
>Ghost and Dragon Types make at LEAST equally as much sense as Fairy Type does
Ghost maybe, but not Dragon. But even if that is the case, most of the thematic aberrations in both of those types didn't exist until after Fairy type was introduced. They maintained consistent conceptual bases for years before Fairy was introduced, whereas Fairy was fucked from the onset. The only type that was on the same level as fairy pre-2013 was Psychic. You could also count Normal, but I don't think that's fair[y] since it's supposed to the "this Pokémon can't be anything else" type.
>Every time you pull this childish crap where the mere presence of a cute pink thing makes you get all hostile and defensive
No one ITT ever did that. Milotic is my [second] favorite Pokemon, pink is one of my favorite colors, and I also like Sanrio and MLP. Not everyone who disagrees with you is the strawman that lives in your head.
Why are Kingdra, Altaria, and Flygon all Dragon types? One’s a seahorse, one’s a bird, and one’s an insect. Yes, they all have bullshit lore reasons for technically being “dragons” but those reasons are no less ridiculous than most fairy types’ reasons for being fairy types. Typing doesn’t have to be internally consistent in pokemon.
the difference is that the lore behind those dragon types ties it back to the condensed concepts of the dragon type. big lizards, raw power, and having the word "dragon" in your name.
The lore behind fairy-types ties them back to the condensed concepts of fairies. If a seahorse, a bird, and a bug can all belong to the same “type” of monster as Dragonite, Salamence, and Haxorus, then that makes no more logical sense than a cake, a witch, and a unicorn belonging to the same type as each other.
parroting is an admission of deafeat
Well don’t go full brainlet on us now, anon.
>what is an analogy
i don’t think you know what an analogy is
And now it’s projecting.
That's also not what projecting is
>fails to identify a basic analogy
>claims the other person doesn’t know what an analogy is
It’s textbook projection.
You’re either replying to the wrong anon, or you’re not following the discussion being had. The one pretending to be retarded is
which may or may not have been you? I don’t care.
i think you’re so focused on the idea of winning an internet argument that you’ve backed yourself into a corner of repeatedly saying stupid shit
and before you say anything, pretending to be retarded is also an admission of defeat
Not that I give a fuck about you or respect your intelligence enough to presume this matters, but for the people other than you that aren't braindead:
>a seahorse
Seahorses are called water dragons in Asiatic countries
>a bird
Altaria is literally based directly on a dragon. It's not the typical depiction of a dragon that you 80 IQ American brain can comprehend but Altaria literally is directly based on a dragon
>a bug
Antlions have a common nickname, sand dragons. That EXACT term is the entire basis on which Flygon was conceptualized in the first place, that's why it's not Bug Type. It's not merely an antlion. It's "sand dragon" taken literally and given a fantasy spin. Ground/Dragon. Sand dragon.
>a cake
Fits the "sweetness" theme. Also this evo line references alchemy/sorcery in comparison to cooking. Because alchemy basically IS cooking with a bit of bullshit magic thrown in.
>a witch
What? Why would it not be fitting for a witch to have magic fae powers? The fuck? Also Hatterene is based on a SPECIFIC witchlike myth, and coincidentally the same word in the same language is used to describe cotton candy. Pokemon has made MULTIPLE Pokemon Fairy Types because they resemble cotton candy, also called fairy floss. This is the reason many Fairy Types have a pink, blue and white color scheme. Hatterene is supposed to be a cotton candy witch as a pun on the legend it's based on
>unicorn
HOW THE ABSOLUTE FUCK DO YOU THINK A UNICORN DOESN'T FIT FAIRY TYPE, WHY DID YOU EVEN TYPE THIS YOU ARE EMBARRASSING
Assuming you’re the person who wrote the 3 essay-length posts upthread…I’m literally in agreement with you. You’ve misread the post you’re replying to.
>What does the moon have to with sensing emotion?
>why is Azumarill, which is just supposed to be an aquatic rabbit, a fairy type?
Japanese fairy tale moon rabbits.
>why are Mr. Mime and Magearna fairy types?
Mr. Mime is an elf, which is synonymous with fairies in most languages, and Magearna is a heart-powered machine.
>why is Grimmsnarl a fairy type
It's an imp/gremlin.
Judging by how it moves in the anime or in Detective Pikachu, I thought Mr. Mime is a mime or a clown.
It's a mime/clown with elf/gnome-esque aspects. See how it helps take care of Ash's house in the anime, for example.
>A fair number of those things you yourself listed don't have any connecting thread with each other
Homie what the fuck am I reading on my screen right now, are you THAT dumb?? What fucking mental gymnastics are you doing where I say "Fairy is thematically consistent, here look at all these different themes that literally dozens upon dozens of them have in common" and YOUR FUCKING RESPONSE unironically was to sit here and point out that the concept don't relate to each other. Motherfucker, WHO SAID THEY DID? What fucking relevance do you think this has??? Does EVERY Psychic Type have a cosmic/astral theme? No. Do MANY of them do and is it thematically consistent theme that shows up repeatedly in many Psychic Types? Yes. So it's a thematically consistent aspect of Psychic Types ISN'T IT MOTHERFUCKER
I read all that
Honestly I like fairy types, cool little critters
Why do they resist bug though...
TALK THAT FUCKIN TALK MANE
>"fairy type makes sense!"
>lists off a bunch of random shit that has nothing to do with each other at all
lmao
Didn't read lol, go dilate.
fairyfags being the only kind of typefag that always feel the need to desperately justify their favourite type by writing essays that then devolve into a multi-post rant accusing anyone else of being insecure is my favourite running gag in pokemon
I wish he was a Fairy
The difference, learn it.
2/3
>they're overpowered!!!
VALID claim....... But you're disingenuous when you say this. You voice no problems with Steel clearly being absurdly overpowered. You have nothing to say about Water being an S Tier Typing for 25 years straight. You just use Fairy Types' relative overpowered-ness as an EXCUSE, rather than you ACTUALLY caring about a Type being too good. Your underlying logic is bullshit, because if overpoweredness is what you ACTUALLY cared about then you'd be complaining about Water and Steel. So shut the fuck up.
Come to think of it, that's sort of the ONLY thing you fucking cringey manchildren do. Fucking WHINE. Oh, they're all pink? Guess what fuckface, Types like Fire, Water or Electric have FAR worse Type = color syndrome. Aww but that's not ACTUALLY what you care about, is it? You just SAY they're "all pink" so you can pretend there's a valid criticism here, when there is none. You do not care about the underlying logic you claim to care about. All you really care about is they're SPECIFICALLY pink. Which triggers you, because your ego and masculinity is retardedly fragile. You're a fucking retard beta male who will sob like a little crybaby bitch whenever he sees the color pink, because he thinks it THREATENS him. Grow a pair of balls you fucking loser, you are not more of a man for violently attacking anything pink and adorable and sweet, you are less of one.
3/3
Every time you pull this childish crap where the mere presence of a cute pink thing makes you get all hostile and defensive, everyone in the vicinity cringes and your pathetically transparent insecurity. Holy shit, WE GET IT, you have a really tiny penis and you REALLY want us to know. Shut the fuck UP. What respectable man feels threatened by a goddamn fairy?? Do you have any fucking idea what an embarrassment you are? It's no wonder you don't get laid or have any fucking friends, no one wants to be around someone who acts like this. You're an insecure little homosexual, your masculinity is as fragile as thin glass. No one gives a single fuck if you associate with something feminine and pink. Grow some balls.
What's that? Fairy Types "don't make sense"? They make EXACTLY as much sense as Ghost and Dragon does. Don't hear you complaining about them too often. Come again? They're all just cute and girly? Oh odd. That's funny, I don't seem to recall you ever complaining about 98% of Dark Types just being black and edgy. Gee I wonder why. What do Dark Types have, again?
>being mean/aggressive

>FUCKIN UUUUUH YEAH BEING NOCTURNAL
Fuck ALL of you people.
Sex with Fairy types!
Learn. The. Difference.
I wonder if people who complain about this also complain about Cloyster being an Ice type or Lucario being a Steel type
I do complain about Lucario.
>My fantasy creatures don't fit the stereotypes of the real world
>Psychic
>Astral Cosmic Magic
>Clefairy
>Fairy Type
nice retarded headcanon
Fairy has no reason to exist. The only throughline for the type is it being the cute/pink type.
You can fuck either so who cares.
those are the same thing
Psychic isn't magic at all. It's mental stuff like telekineses.
Game Freak disagrees
nope. try again.
There's like at least 8 Psychic moves and abilities with Magic in the name
Galar Slowking? It’s based on a wizard and its psychic-type signature move is named after spells/witchcraft in every language.
No, Psychic is whatever the fuck GameFreak wants it to be, just like how Fairy is whatever the fuck GameFreak wants it to be but is primarily the "Girl Type".
>fairy = disney magic
For fucks sakes.
I don't see how that's controversial. Isn't that more or less exactly what fairy type magic is
Why everyone is talking about anything else but the first post interpretation of the types?
