Am I right in thinking that there weren't any possible reason the Blissey line wasn't retconned to be/add Fairy OTHER than gameplay ones?
Flavor wise, they're in the egg group, they are pink and female only, they DELIVER HAPPINESS (almost same concept as Togepi line).
Audino I can get not being Fairy, healing itself isn't associated with the type, and it's thing is healing and hearing, so OK, normal type it is. But Blissey is basically a fat, fairy godmother.
Would it have been THAT OP if it was Normal Fairy? It'd still get easily KOed by most physical moves, except now it would be weak to Poison and Steel instead of Fighting (2 weaknesses instead of one) with one immunity. It would probably even have made Steel and Poison moves more used in general, making Fairy less OP overall.
They wouldn't give a shit if it was too OP.

What's the reason, then?
What makes them not-Fairy?
Also, what about Cresselia? Was it just because it's a legendary?
They don't give a fuck if a Pokémon is too OP, look at M-Rayquaza.
I don't get why they aren't fairy type either tho

Cresselia isn't that much of a fairy imo.
Celebi deserves fairy type more than Cresselia, like all the others Mew-like

Nurses are Normal.
Audino stayed Normal too until its Mega. Maybe Mega Blissey will earn the Fairy typing too.
too OP

But Fairies don't time travel. Its more of a Psychic thing :^)

Its closely associated with the moon and is feminine and sparkly and good natured. What else do you want? It should be Psychic/Fairy
