>>46502902Ah yes here comes the usual Whimsifag copes. Just because its listed as being "mischievous" and has Prankster in its dex doesnt automatically make it a fairy. Sableye is considered a prankster, Mismagius fucks with people and literally has mischievous in the name, so why arent they both Ghost/Fairy types? Clearly they fit into your pigeonholed definition of Fairy types. My idea of Fairy types are bit more nuanced than that. If a little brown thing gets to be Fairy then a little grass princess should be able to too by your metrics. The fact remains that they only gave it to Whimsicott because it simply fit their marketing agenda of making Fairy the designated cutesy creecher thing. I highly doubt the designers of Unova were legit thinking, in the back of their heads before Fairy was even invented yeah, that "Yes, this cotton ball thing is actually a fairy".
But, oh well. Makes no difference to me. The fairy typing did nothing much for Whimsi in comp. Lilligant would have taken far more advantage of it with Mooblast and Quiverdance. No one, literally no one, was excited to learn that only Whimsicott became fairy in X and Y. Everyone was complaining about Lilligant not being fairy. The only people defending that decision are just Whimsifags like you, which is what makes your little fandon clique that much nore obnoxious. I already know this convo will be going nowhere from here on out, so I must bid you farewell. Adieu.
