Clefable is a Fairy-type Pokémon, which makes it weak against Poison and Steel-type moves. It is important to note that Clefable only takes damage from attacks, and it has built-in resistances against Dragon, Bug, Dark, and Fighting-type moves. Here are some of the best Pokémon to use to counter Clefable in battle:
-
Metagross: A dual Psychic/Steel-type, Metagross can take advantage of one of Clefables primary weaknesses. This creature should be equipped with the Steel-type moves Bullet Punch and Meteor Mash to inflict maximum damage.
-
Excadrill: Both a Ground and Steel-type, Excadrill wont have any problem dealing with this Fairy-type. The best moveset for Excadrill to know in this battle scenario is Metal Claw and Iron Head.
-
Gengar: One of the most potent and powerful Poison-types, Gengar makes for an excellent counter to use against Clefable. If the dual Ghost/Poison-type has the moves Lick and Sludge Bomb in its arsenal, Clefable wont stand a chance.
It is also important to use moves that Clefable is weak against, such as Poison and Steel-type moves, to deal super effective damage.
