what is fairy-type's translation to japanese? is it exactly the same? I'm wondering if any translations from other languages will give us an idea of what constitutes a pokemon being a "fairy"

フェアリー (fearii), literally the english word "fairy".

I've heard people refer to it as 妖精 (yousei) occasionally, but that's not how it'll be written in game.

It's マジック in Japanese which is basically magic.

Odd, I thought it was going to be Yosen, which is what I constantly hear as japanese for fairies.

Some people call it yousei online ("yosen" means preliminary round so I think you were a little off) to get the point across about what the type means (that is, mythical sprite creature thing), but that's not the word they used to announce it.

Also, after the reveal on Pokémon Smash they explained that the Japanese word for it is yousei.
