Personally I'm a bit surprised that Jigglypuff is Normal/Fairy and not a pure Fairy-type. I wonder if any other Pokemon which are currently pure Normal that are likely to become Fairy-types (Cleffa line and Togepi, for example) will retain their Normal-type or change entirely to become pure Fairy-types.

I can not see Banette being a fairy at all..
But if Mr Mime gets it.. will just make them even weirder :')
I think Marill is kind of representing a naiad- a water nymph; specifically of fresh water such as rivers, brooks etc.. Though it looks like a round mouse
it and Azumarill have traits of being heavily associated with freshwater- in terms of rivers etc. I believe. That would kind of make sense I suppose- when compared to other existing Water types.Jigglypuff, well, I can't really argue against it
I it like a balloon/pudding spirit- which is quite Fairylike and odd I suppose- and it is partially associated with the moon (moon stone) but not as much as Clefairy.Clefairy HAS to be retyped to pure Fairy! Anyone with me? Having it as normal/fairy would be odd because if anything warrants pure Fairy it is Clefairy and Clefable. Also, it would be nice for it to diverge away from Jigglypuff's line
I expect some of:
1st Gen: Clefairy and Clefable, Jigglypuff and Wigglytuff,
2nd Gen: Misdreavus, Togetic, Bellossom, Marill and Azumarill (obviously
),3rd Gen: Mawile, Absol or an evo, Snorunt, Glailie, just Gardevoir in it's line, possibly Milotic, Skitty line, perhaps a split evo for Shroomish
4th Gen: Cherim, Pachirisu (give it something different), Togekiss, Manaphy, Mismagius, Lake Trio
5th Gen: Audino, Whimsicott.
Xerneas please be Fairy! Please!
EDIT: Further extras that I missed off (the next guy with a list was more exhaustive also, with retyping, but meh I'm lazy!): possibly Volbeat/Illumise to give them something different and From Fairy types associated imagery I suspect Cresselia is a good candidate.

I doubt it why take away a STAB Neutral Type when you can make it a Dual Type and give it a new STAB attack

I expect none of the older Pokémon to get their types completely replaced with Fairy, they might not want to make too drastic differences and thus just add the type like with Jigglypuff (Normal/Fairy). Clefairy is a given but I think it'll be Normal/Fairy like Jigglypuff. The only pure Fairy-types would be completely new Pokémon like Sylveon. I could see new evolutions for older Pokémon having a Fairy-type, like Cherubi/Cherrim being pure Grass but a new evolution being Grass/Fairy.

So, what do you think will be name of Arceus' plate for Fairy-type? Or any possible items that could be associate with Fairies?

Fairy retyping (speculation):
:: Clefairy (Fairy) ~ I believe this line turns out to be pure Fairy (except the baby form which stays Normal type)
:: Clefable (Fairy)
:: Jiglypuff (Normal/Fairy)
:: Wigglytuff (Normal/Fairy)
:: Happiny (Normal/Fairy)
:: Chansey (Normal/Fairy)
:: Blissey (Normal/Fairy)
:: Togepi (Normal/Fairy)
:: Togetic (Flying/Fairy)
:: Togekiss (Flying/Fairy)
:: Snubull (Normal/Fairy)
:: Granbull (Normal/Fairy)
:: Marill (Water/Fairy)
:: Azumarill (Water/Fairy)
:: Misdreavus (Ghost/Fairy)
:: Mismagius (Ghost/Fairy)
:: Bellossom (Grass/Fairy)
:: Mawile (Steel/Fairy)
:: Ralts (Psychic/Fairy)
:: Kirlia (Psychic/Fairy)
:: Gardevoir (Psychic/Fairy)
:: Plusle (Electric/Fairy)
:: Minum (Electric/Fairy)
:: Milotic (Water/Fairy)
:: Volbeat (Bug/Fairy)
:: Illumise (Bug/Fairy)
:: Audino (Normal/Fairy)
:: Alomomola (Water/Fairy)
:: Lilligant (Grass/Fairy)
:: Zorua (Dark/Fairy)
:: Zoroark (Dark/Fairy)
:: Sylveon (Fairy)
Legendaries:
:: Manaphy (Water/Fairy)
:: Cresselia (Psychic/Fairy)
:: Mewtwo XY form (Psychic/Fairy)
:: Xerneas (doubt it...)
Concluding (IMO):
= 33 Pokemon retyped + probably 10 new fairy type Pokemon (like Sylveon and – not sure - Xerneas)

I bolded the one's i don't think will happen. All the other i could see happening, with Pachirisu i think an Electric/Fairy evo would be quite good for the little fella

Fairy type is not super-effective against Dark.
Here is my idea. Gardevoir is a Psychic/Fairy type with a decent special attack stat. Hydregion is Dark/Dragon type and it is shown that they are battling at the same level, LV.50. If Gardevoir used Fairy Wind in order to attack the Hyderigon, which has a great special attack, it would have KO'd Hydregion, considering Fairy type is both super effective to Dragon and Dark. However, unlikely, it is seen that after the attack Hydreigon has around 50-55 HP with yellow-orange coloured HP bar. I don't think if a x4 type of attack would leave this amount of HP after it is used. So,
Either Fairy Wind has very low power or Dark is not super effected by Fairy Types.

I think that they're going to re-type a lot of Pokemon. The low amount in Gen II made sense because there was only 151 before it. The competitive scene was also the main reasoning for Fairy's strength over Dragons. More fairys will change the metagame further.
a few i disagree with i don't think zoroark or zorua i think they'll stay pure dark. I also have doubts over minun and plusle and the togepi line(until we see otherwise i'm sticking with the asumption that only single typed pokemon will gain the fairy type.).But otherwise the rest seem plausible.
I personally feel whimsicott is a prime candidate- being pure Grass currently: it has many Fairy like aspects to it's design, abilities and dex entries- and it would totally learn Fairy wind
With speculation that Mawile will gain Fairy type- I suspect Misdreavus' line to get it too- because both are based on similiar Japanese 'Fairy tales' about seemingly normal women/people with strange secrets (a mouth on the back of their head and a head that detaches itself at night to float around and spook people
)- so with that in mind I think it would be nice, also to allow Misdreavus something to stand out from other Pure Ghost types now- as that distinction it once held (for one generation ) has been swept away Actually I think I might do a bit of a U-turn on Pachirisu; for Plusle and Minun. Though all three could happen
that might be nice.I think Fairy wind is a straight variation of Silver Wind, which isn't too powerful.

I actually expected that the new type would be light type instead of fairy
But still... 90 power with stab, 2x super effective (possibly 4x), put that with gardevoirs special attack... I would go for maybe 40 power for fairy wind?
Maybe that Gardevoir had it's power dropped or something? Not being contrary mate- but we don't the rest of the effects in play at the time.
It seems it would make sense as a variation- I could even imagine it sharing animations with Silver and Ominous but different colours. It could be a lower base power though- but personally, to me, that would seem a little odd
I dunno why.danburite3

That's stretching it a bit, don't you think?
