Clefairy

Clefairy (ピッピ Pippi) is a -type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It evolves from Cleffa via Happiness, and evolves into Clefable by using a Moon Stone.



Appearance
Clefairy is a small, pink Pokemon with a cute appearance. Many people think Clefairy looks like a combination of two Pokemon, because it has a body like a Jigglypuff's, but ears like a Pikachu's.

Special Abilities
Clefairy can have the ability Magic Guard or Cute Charm. Cute Charm allows Clefairy to have a 30% chance to infatuate the foe if the foe is the opposite gender and a physical attack hits Clefairy. Magic Guard allows Clefairy to only get damage by attacks. Clefairy can jump very high, as seen in the anime, and can hear very well. This is often the reason why they are hard to find.

In Anime
A group of Clefairies tried to fly to the moon in a space ship they built on Mt. Moon. Ash battled Whiney's Clefairy in A Goldenrod Oppurtunity.

Game Info
Clefairy is rare in most Handheld Pokemon games, although it can be found in almost all of them.

Super Smash Bros.
Clefairy appeared in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, where it would be released out of a Poké Ball.

Name Origins
Its name probably comes from clef (as in music) and fairy.
