Fidough and Dachsbun are dogs made of bread. Alcremie is a cake, and its prevo Milcery is... cream? Cake batter? Something like that, anyway. Swirlix and Slurpuff are cotton candy, Swirlix is even classified as the Cotton Candy Pokemon. While candy isn't (or at least, shouldn't be) the first thing you think of when you think "food", I'd still consider it food even if only by a technicality. Togepi, retconned in Gen 6 to become a Fairy type, is an egg. Though that doesn't really remain a theme in its evolutions, and I could see if you didn't wanna count this one since I THINK animal eggs are different from eggs you can eat as a food? Am I wrong? I feel like I'm wrong about that. I don't actually know... Morelull and Shiinotic are mushrooms, though this may be cheating, especially since they give off more of a drug mushroom vibe as opposed to a culinary mushroom one (at least in my opinion) And while this one isn't DIRECTLY food based, some of Ribombee's dex entries state that the pollen puffs it makes can be eaten as snacks or supplements. Depending on how you look at it, that's 3 to 6 lines of Pokemon that are food based AND ALSO given the Fairy typing. If you count all 6 of those, then that's enough for a full mono-Fairy food-themed team, without any members sharing an evolution line! Even if you only count the first 3 lines, each has 2 members, so that's STILL enough for a full team (albeit not a very good one, as 3 members are not fully evolved). I just realized all of this a little while ago and thought to myself "That's very weird". Both that it exists and that I'd think of it. --- The Bagel made me do it. I am the master of dead memes ...

Hambo posted... Just wait til you discover the grass type.Ok but like... that one makes sense. Even then, we got many of the food based Grass types in Gen 8 or 9. Applin line, Smoliv line, Capsakid line... Prior to that, we had the Exeggcute line, maybe Seedot (and even then that's an acorn... last I checked that's squirrel food, not human food), Pumpkaboo line, and potentially all of the Mushroom mons, (except probably the Paras line, because squick) if you count them (Shroomish line, Foongus line, aforementioned Morelull line). I GUESS Tropius could count too, with the bananas around its neck. Did I miss any others? Anyway, it makes sense for Grass to have many potential food mons, what with fruits and veggies being a thing. Hell, I'm more surprised there aren't more, looking over the list. But it also has both quantity and time over the Fairy type. There's 125 Grass types vs 68 Fairy types, and it's been around since the beginning, while Fairy has only been from Gen 6 onwards. But why does Fairy have as many foods as it does? What characteristic of the Fairy typing makes for this many mons based on food? It's 1:30 AM and I am asking the REAL questions! --- The Bagel made me do it. I am the master of dead memes ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sunkern Shroomish Cherubi Oddish Morelull Tropius Foongus Paras Applin And some others I forgot already. Also some of their evolutions. But yeah, fairy is kind of the go-to type for baked goods and sugary snacks as pokemon. Maybe it is just because they're supposed to be sweet lol. Also Jigglypuff's Japanese name is basically pudding, so you can add her to the list. --- Hambo's alt. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't play pokemon but I really think fairy type might just be the best addition to the series in years, really helps to balance out dragon type who I've always hated for being so broken. That said I think there just aren't enough fairy type creatures to base pomemon off of if they had to retroactively make clefairy and jigglypuff fairy type (a good decision dont get me wrong) so all that's left is pastries and desserts ...

It's messed up that what are essentially fruits are sentient creatures. Nature in the pokemon is double messed up --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY ... Copied to Clipboard!
