Read more ↓Fairy Garden is not a Pokémon, but a Stadium Trainer card, representing a location within the Pokémon world. As such, it does not have Pokédex lore, natural habitat, diet, or behavior in the traditional sense of a Pokémon creature. Stadium cards are a type of Trainer card that depict specific locations, and their effects typically influence the gameplay for both players while they remain in play. These cards are an integral part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, shaping strategies by modifying the rules or providing benefits/hindrances to Pokémon in play. Fairy Garden itself evokes the imagery of a serene, magical place, consistent with the aesthetic often associated with Fairy-type Pokémon which were introduced in Generation VI (the X and Y games). The introduction of Fairy-type Pokémon and associated elements like Fairy Garden was a significant development in the Pokémon franchise, adding a new dimension to type matchups and gameplay strategies, particularly in balancing the previously dominant Dragon type.
