The Fairy type (Japanese: フェアリー Fairy) was one of the eleven TCG types. It was represented by the color pink and symbolized by two shapes resembling a star and a pair of wings or cupped "healing hands" surrounding it. It may have also been a stylized depiction of Florges or Xerneas's antlers.

The Fairy type formerly contained most Fairy-type Pokémon found in the main series video games. For example, Xerneas, Sylveon, and Aromatisse were Fairy types in the TCG. Some Pokémon that were classed as Colorless types prior to the Kalos Starter Set, such as Snubbull, were Fairy types from the Kalos Starter Set to Cosmic Eclipse.

The corresponding Basic Energy card is Fairy Energy.

It was announced on January 9, 2020[1], that the Fairy type would no longer be supported in the Sword & Shield expansion. Pokémon that are Fairy-types in the main series video games are now grouped in the Psychic type instead.
