Despite the usual Genwunner bias in these sorts of polls, Electric was the first typing to secure a win (or even a wild card berth) for Gen I. It didn't QUITE get a strong run for its money from Gen V, but four rounds in and Gen V has proven to have some strong defenders (except when it comes to dragons). For today's contest, we're doing Fairy-types. It's interesting, because there are Fairies in every generation, but most generations only retroactively got Fairies added to existing Pokemon, so who knows how that will affect popularity. Given Gen VI's limited roster, I have folder Mega Evolutions into their list, as those were, effectively, some of the new Pokemon created in lieu of brand new designs for Gen VI. I'll keep the same concept for later typings as well. Note: I will not be considering things like Dialga/Palkia's form changes in Gen VIII, as those are still technically the same in the way Giratina's form change was back in Gen IV. Bug: Gen V (44.12%) Dragon Gen III (41.67%) Electric: Gen I (37.50%) Dark: Gen II (26.87%) Fairy: ??? Fighting: ??? Fire: ??? Flying: ??? Ghost: ??? Grass: ??? Ground: ??? Ice: ??? Normal: ??? Poison: ??? Psychic: ??? Rock: ??? Steel: ??? Water: ???

Gotta be Gen 6. Mega Gardevoir is great and Mega Mawile made a worthless Pokemon solid. Most of the others are pretty good too like Floette ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's definitely not Gen IV (almost nothing except a baby and an evolution of something from Gen II), Gen V (the only Fairy is a less-than-great line), and Gen VI (holy hell for the generation that introduced Fairy-types, Sylveon is the only truly GOOD Pokemon on that roster). Gen VIII & Gen IX have some good stuff, but they also have some trash. Gen III has two stars, but also a worthless baby and Ralts. Similarly, three of Gen II's are babies, and Snubbull isn't THAT great either. So it comes down to Gen I (which I think is almost perfect except Wigglytuff is kinda lame) and Gen VII (which has more duds...but also a much larger roster.)
I've gotta go with Gen VII, because A-Ninetales, Primarina, Cutiefly, Ribombee, Mimikyu, and the Tapus are SUCH high quality, and Morelull/Shiinotic are good choices for Grass/Fairy. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier. Inviso ... Copied to Clipboard!

Feels bad to vote gen 1 here but it's got an 80% hit rate and nothing else beats that

Gen 7 is a blowout imo. The tapus vary between good and great, mimikyu is awesome, cutiefly and ribombee are good, primarina is fabulous and A-ninetales is even floofier than regular ninetales.

The actual Gen VI Pokemon are mostly underwhelming, but the Fairy Megas are all pretty good to great. Gen VII is competitive, but I still give VI the edge.

Thought I'd be voting for 6, but yeah, other than Sylveon, Xerneas and Floette... and maybe Klefki... yeah.... there are some real stinkers there.
Ended up going with I. --- darkx ... Copied to Clipboard!

Went Gen 8, and it wasnt even close; Enamorus may be the worst of the worst legendary set design-wise, but I dont care for most of the Tapus, and Alcremie wound up on my final semicomp team. Plus, for the dirty minded people, come on, Milcery is right there.
Hatterne and Grimmsnarl's whole line are both brilliant, G-Weezing hilarious, G-Rapidash pretty, and Zacian gets the "best cover legendary for its generation plus a few others" award. 9/10 hits for me. --- [Rock and Stone] <o/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'd say Gen VII has more actual new Pokemon over Gen VI, which relies a lot more on its Megas. The actual Gen VI new introductions are a bit underwhelming besides Flabebe/Floette/Florges, Sylveon, Xerneas, and Diancie. Gen VII handled the new introductions a lot better than Gen VI.

A-Ninetales and Primarina are elegant.
Ribombee is surprisingly solid, especially for in-game. Shiinotic... Comfey has a cute design. Mimikyu is really strong and I love the Hone Claws + Shadow Sneak + Disguise combo. The Tapus are...okay. Magearna is horrible. Still Gen VII overall. --- God has heard my soul. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Gen VII is probably my most hated of all of these options. I will never understand the love for Mimikyu or the Tapus.
