Clefairy Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Set Lore
Clefairy #5 is one of the original holographic rares from Base Set, the first main English Pokémon TCG expansion released on January 9, 1999, which makes it part of the hobby’s foundational chase lineup.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the original Pokémon character designer, giving Base Set Clefairy the unmistakable early-era look that connects it directly to Pokémon’s first generation of game art.
Card History
Base Set Clefairy is famous for pairing Sing with Metronome, and Bulbapedia notes both are moves Clefairy can learn in the games, making the card feel especially faithful to its video game identity.
In-Game
Clefairy’s long-running moonlit mystique is rooted in the games, where Mt. Moon is closely associated with Clefairy and even features Clefairy gathering around a Moon Stone in later titles.
Card History
Collectors love that Clefairy’s cosmic charm carries into the anime too, because the episode "Clefairy and the Moon Stone" centers on groups of Clefairy dancing around a Moon Stone in one of the species’ most iconic early appearances.
