Our guide goes through everything you need to know about Clefairy, but if you're looking for something else, check out our Pokédex and list of the best Pokémon games out there. Who knows, maybe we'll recommend a title you haven't played.

That's all you need to know about the Pokémon Clefairy. Go ahead and use your adorable fairy-type!

You can usually find Holly roaming through Teyvat or Hyrule. She's big on Nintendo, Hoyoverse, and indie games. Animal Crossing is her ride-or-die. She plays too many farming games. She got started doing freelance lists for GameRant and Roblox pages for VG247, and producing Genshin Impact builds for Gfinity. Her biggest achievement to date is getting her Pikmin 4 score on adverts across the UK. She can, and will, lay some hot takes out if you let her but sticks to correct opinions like arguing what the best wireless chargers and stylus phones are, and which gacha game is the best (it’s Genshin. Or Wuthering Waves. Or Honkai Star Rail). She also owns a really cute lizard.
