Re: E3 Nintendo Direct reveals masses of information: Fairy type, several new Pokémon
Aye, it's pretty much the equivalent of calling it "Magick". Although Faerie can be a place, while Fairy always refers to the creatures.
I know, but the "proper" spelling of it is Faerie.
Don't ask me how I know that.
It's just the British spelling. Not the proper one. America spells it differently, deal with it.
It's neither the "proper" nor the British spelling. It's the old Anglo-French spelling, now largely superseded by "fairy". In modern usage, "faerie" is sometimes used as a synonym for "fairy" - mostly, I suspect, because it looks cooler with its archaic spelling. There are subtle differences between the two uses, with "faerie" typically referring to the more folklorish, fantastical depictions, though this could be nothing more than the fact that fantasy authors like to show off a bit.
