Under that logic when dark hits fairy it should instead do normal damage but permanently turn the Fairy to Dark. So Clefable would morph into an evil trickster mono dark

It should we weak to the normal type one because fairies are fictitious creatures so reality commonly associated with normal trumps it. You can also kind of associate it with humans since they're normal and fairies are well known for being opposed to the human world like fern gully and shit

To be fair, grass types should probably turn into fire types when hit with fire attacks too, but that's just not how the mechanics work.
Could probably make for a cool ability though.

Bug
Right now Fairies are resistant to Bugs, but it should be the other way around. Bugs and Fairies have historically always been set against each other in fantasy settings. Have the Bugs be at the advantage in this context.
Gives Bug Types a buff while giving Fairy a non-crippling weakness.

The only reason bug should be fairy's third weakness is because of balance. it doesn't make much sense beyond that.
Fire makes more sense thematically but no one wants that because fire's already a really good offensive type.

Bug. I don't know why Fairies resist bugs. I don't know who could look at this and say "wow! the fairy clearly is at an advantage!"
Even thematically you could argue that insects, as unfeeling creatures of nature, represent a reality that fairies are incompatible with. Plus bugs need a buff anyway.

One of the things that always appears in fairy tales is how some fairies are literally allergic to banality. Having people believing in fairies give them strength and restore their energy.
So they could be weak either to Psychic, Dark or normal.
Psychic- smarter people believe in science! Not in fairies.
Dark- Evil people don't believe in anything but themselves.
Normal- Normal people don't believe in fairy tails after growing up.

This gay shitty type should've had 1/2 effectiveness reduction to Normal for both attack & defence since its conception for the same reason Normal is immune to Ghost and vice-versa (if normies don't believe in paranormal/ghosts why shouldn't they also not believe in magic/fairies as well?)
