Since the only physical Fairy-type move at the moment is Play Rough with all the others being Special and Status, I was thinking if anyone had ideas on a possible Fairy-type attack that was a physical attack.

The only one I could think of would be a sword based attack based on fictional swords used in fairy tales; called Fairy Blade or Dragon Slayer.

Dragon Slayer would be a pretty cool attack, if you ask me. Though, similarly to psychic, fairy-type has some sort of mystique surrounding itself, which doesn't seem to go well with aggression and whatnot, which, I believe, is being promoted by the name Dragon Slayer. If it were to be turned into an actual move, I could more or less imagine it to be fighting. If they'd like it to be super-effective against dragon, then perhaps they'd be able to have this attack be dragon-type instead.

Another option that comes to mind is dual-type; if they wish, perhaps they could make Dragon Slayer be two, separate types at once, with one being primary and other secondary, sort of like Hawlucha's signature move. Anyhow, I'm going a little too off-topic here, haha.

If we'd like some physical fairy-type attack, I feel Fairy Blade would be nice, like you've already mentioned. Another choice would be Fairy Rush, which would wind up to be an alternative to the move Dragon Rush. This would indeed endorse aggression as I've stated earlier, but probably not as much as Dragon Slayer.

I would have no problem with those if Fairy-type was a Knight-type. Because knights slay dragons. Not fairies.

If people still wonder why Poison isn't super-effective against Water (it has no reason to be since water dilutes poison), I wonder what they think of all the Fairy-type matchups. They could've invented a better type tbh.

The user performs a spinning attack and hit enemies with lots of columns of light at once. You will also recover 1/4 of your HP. Also Raises Sp.Atk and Sp.Def by 2. user is unable to move the next turn.

Wow. Probably this is a little too much for a Pokemno Game. Probably used on legendary Pokemon only? xD

Yeah, this does sound a little too powerful, haha. It'd be very suitable for a legendary. Though, if I were you, I'd have it restore one-sixth of your health instead one-fourth (because latter seems like a lot), and perhaps have its accuracy raised by ten points or so. User would be unable to execute any other move next turn, anyhow, so I don't believe having a better chance of striking with this attack would do much harm.

Something that resembles Remilia Scarlet's Gungnir spell card or the Lightning Spear miracle from Dark Souls, with it being physical on the basis that the bolt is physically thrown. Both these spells are very evocative of divine wrath, synonymous with the thunderbolts of Zeus; so it seems incredibly appropriate for this sort of move to exist. While a good part of the Fairy type is based on traditional folklore (to name one aspect: weaknesses to iron in Steel and, despite their magical nature, mortality in Poison), which themselves are far from association with light or divinity, the way a lot of fairies are so friendship-oriented, basically being magical girl Pokemon, makes Madoka arrows fine too.

So for a name I'll invert Gwyn's Sunlight Spear into Darkmoon Moonlight Spear... actually, Darkmoon Spear does sound awesome, but it might be a bit out of theme unless one has a Fairy-Dark dualtype monster to use it.

Fairy Blade - 75 BP with 95 Accuracy and higher critical hit rate.

That's all I can think of right now but I'm surprised game freak hasn't gone with the fairy-knight theme yet...
