    Fairy type has existed for a generation and a half now. Has it found a place in your teams or do you not consider it worthy of a slot? How has it changed your standard team composition since Gen 6?
     
    Fairy-types have actually become a regular of my main story teams. I used Sylveon in X, Gardevoir in Alpha Sapphire and Primarina in Moon, which all served my team very well.
     
    I skipped Gen VI and only started with VII late this year but I am sooo confused because of the effectiveness changes. I am really dependent on the blurb saying a move is or isn't effective against a Fairy-type otherwise I wouldn't even know where to begin. I have not yet used it on a team but I might do that next time just to get a better hang of the type. I had to look at effectiveness charts for the first time in ten years, though, that felt weird. o_o
     
    It largely depends on my team makeup, to be honest. My Moon main team already technically has a Fairy-type in my starter, but I usually pick my teammates so they balance each other in terms of types. For example, I would only really pick a fairy if I have a crippling weakness to at least two types that fairies can manage.
     
    They have a sure spot in my team, because they became my favourite Type along with Grass <3 I don't play competitively so I really just play with Pokémon I like. So I often have more than 1 Fairy type in my team
     
    I haven't played any of the 3DS Games yet. If I do some day (hopefully, maybe), I'd definitely like to try out a Fairy Type on my Team. Would a Fairy Type be a regular Member on my team though, not sure.
