Read more ↓Clefable is a fairy-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I, evolving from Clefairy when exposed to a Moon Stone. It is often depicted as a reclusive and timid creature, rarely seen by humans, and is known for its graceful movements and magical abilities. According to Pokédex entries, Clefable are said to live in quiet, mountainous areas, particularly near areas with moonlight, which is believed to be the source of their power. They are known to be very shy and will quickly retreat into hiding if they sense human presence. Their diet is largely unknown, but given their gentle nature, it is likely plant-based or energy-based. In the anime, Clefable often appears in episodes focusing on its mystical qualities and its connection to the moon. In the games, Clefable is a versatile Pokémon with a wide range of moves, making it a valuable asset in many teams. Its evolution line, starting with Cleffa (introduced in Generation II) and then Clefairy, has been a staple of the Pokémon universe since its inception. Clefable's cute and ethereal design has made it a favorite among fans, symbolizing the magical and mysterious aspects of the Pokémon world. Its type matchups generally favor it against Fighting, Dragon, and Dark types, while it is vulnerable to Poison and Steel types.
