>>31796665You know how Alakazam is the quintessential Psychic type? And Machamp Fighting? That's what Florges is for Fairy type. They wanted a simple, mono family of fairies to be the embodiment of the new type.
Plus, fairies are intended to have a symbiotic relationship with nature. They help the Grass type flourish, they make plants grow, they become one with nature, but without being Grass themselves.
Although I admit Florges' case is a little extreme, it makes sense. Plus Fairy/Grass really is not stellar for something trying to be defensive.
