Clefairy (Japanese: ピッピ Pippi) is a Normal-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
The most well-known ability that a Clefairy has is the ability to use Metronome, a move that involves wiggling its fingers back and forth in order to execute any attack at random (even to the user). Even without Metronome, Clefairy is capable of learning a vast amount of elemental attacks.
Behavior
Clefairy are very shy and timid creatures. As such, they rarely show themselves to humans. Clefairy also seem to have gained a reputation as kleptomaniacs, since there have been various reports of Clefairy being seen stealing random junk.
Habitat
Clefairy are elusive Pokémon in the wild. The best place to find them is Mt. Moon, especially at a night during a full moon. Wherever they live, they are likely to be in an area where the moon is clear and visible at night.
Diet

In the anime
While Clefairy's first appearance was in Clefairy and the Moon Stone; in the original pilot episode, Clefairy was intended to be Ash's starting Pokémon. Due to a last minute change, the role went to Pikachu. This would have made the anime closer to the Pocket Monsters manga, which would later be referenced in Lights, Camerupt, Action!, where its main character, Isamu Akai, along with his Clefairy and Pikachu appeared in a film Ash was watching.
A group of Clefairies were going around stealing random junk in Virdian City to repair their spaceship during Clefairy Tales. Their leader got beaten up by Jigglypuff for stealing its microphone/pen. These Clefairy made another brief appearance in Wish Upon a Star Shape.
In A Goldenrod Opportunity, a Clefairy was used by Whitney to send Team Rocket flying and in the Gym Battle against Ash. The Fairy Pokémon was defeated by Ash's Cyndaquil.
Several Clefairy also appeared in A Real Cleffa-Hanger, when Ash and his friends visited Mt. Moon again.
In the manga
A rude, crass, male Clefairy is the co-star of the Pocket Monsters manga.
In Pokémon Special, Blue had a Clefairy that later evolved into Clefable.
In the Electric Tale of Pikachu, one of the chapters focuses on Clefairy running wild through a city. It was an adaptation of EP062.
In the TCG

Other appearances

When released from a Poké Ball, Clefairy will use Metronome triggering Blizzard, Explosion, or Fire Spin. All will hurt any opponents close to Clefairy.
Trophy information
Clefairy are very cute Pokémon, which makes them popular pets. However, as they're only found in a few areas, it takes a lot of work to find one. Strangely enough, legend has it that Clefairy are more active during the full moon. These Pokémon are known to use Metronome, a move that unleashes a randomly selected technique.
