Why aren't they Fairy types? That's what they literally are.

Not every cute and pink design deserves being a fairy.

Fairies are magical beings who love to trick others. The Chansey line want nothing more than to heal other people and pokemon. They're literally too benevolent to be like a fairy.

I'd imagine for game balancing reasons.

A Fairy type or a Normal/Fairy type Chansey/Blissey would be way better than it is currently.

it’s cute, it’s pink, it’s feminine, it goes around healing people with an egg that magically also makes them happy, it has fluff around its arms that resemble fairy wings

It fits more as a fairy type than 90% of the shit they retconned to be fairy type.

All of them are more justified than Blissey. I’m glad we got more subtle picks than “on your face” ones you crave so much.

And psychic types use those abilities to do things like healing and protecting. Heal Pulse? Psychic type. Reflect and Light Screen? Psychic type. Type represented by pink? Psychic type. Type with cute, blobby designs? Psychic type.
There's just as much of an argument to be made either way if you want to look at it that way and there needs to be more substance towards making the decision. Or, alternatively, there doesn't need to be any substance at all and GameFreak just did what they wanted.

If you were wounded in a forest and some mysterious pink creature showed up to heal you with a magical egg then you’d think it were a fairy. Thread is full of contrarians.

Clefable’s species category is self-explanatory.
Wigglytuff has a connection with the moon rabbit myth.

First, regular Audino is as much rabbit-like as mega, second, being *only* a rabbit is sooooooo weak argument no one should really consider it.

Wigglytuff at least evolves through moonstone what makes a strong connection to fairy type.

Every Fairy trait is already done by another type. Say what you will about >muh Sound/Slime/Cosmic type, but those would at least be doing a theme another type isn't already doing.

They wouldn't exist the same way they do now if they were day 1, either.
Dragon was originally designed as a Penultimate Boss Type that resisted all four of Gen 1's starters and had very few answers other than blunt neutral force or packing an Ice Move, odds are Fairy would be seen as the "girl" equivalent of Bug Types, carry none of its Dragon Advantages, and be given to shitmons almost exclusively.
So despite this, GameFreak would STILL invent a new Anti-Dragon in Gen 6, because their game design philosophy radically shifted after Gen 2.
