*Previous: Enchantix*

*Next: Harmonix*

**Believix** is a Fairy Form seen in the *Shining Bonds* franchise.

## Appearence

The outfits are casual, fitting the Earth theme. Females' outfits mainly consist of a stylized skirt and/or capri with knee-high socks and boots or sandals. The wings are big and their design relates to power or theme. Fairies also obtain a type of wrist or arm accessory.

### Nanette

Nanette has a unique design for this transformation, and also has an upgraded version called **Great Blossom Believix**.

In her regular Believix, she wears a princess-style dress that reaches her knees and purple glass slippers. Her opera-length gloves are not fingerless and her wings are exactly like Victoria's. She also wears a big crown on her head.

In her Great Blossom mode, the dress becomes fancy and now reaches her ankles while her eyeshadow becomes light yellow and she gains lipstick of the same color. Her gloves now reach her forearms and her hair is overflowing. Her eyes also change to resemble Vahirom's.

## History

### Shining Bonds: Starlix Burst

Professor Elfreda first mentions this form in the season 3 episode *Stronger Colorlessness*, where she informs the Starlix Club that after Enchantix, there is an infinite number of levels a fairy can reach, the one above Enchantix being Believix, a Fairy Form that can affect the feelings of people. The girls soon learn that Fairy Forms, even ones like this transformation and their Enchantix, are sometimes ineffective against the upgraded Ekim-Hieras, and that only the Innocent Harmony Form's Starlight Style can combat them completely.

## Requirements

In order for a fairy to earn Believix, they must first have earned the previous three Fairy Forms: Magix, Charmix, and Enchantix. Then they must do one of the following:

* Make people believe in magic.

* Yelling their courage and beliefs.

* Believing in and trusting themselves.

### Exceptions

Roxy and Nanette are the only known exceptions to these rules. The former earned her Believix by becoming angered at Event Horizon and focusing her love for her Eevee Artu, while the latter earned her Believix by believing in all the good things while recklessly fighting a Nightmare all by herself. However, Nanette collapses after her first use of the form.

## Ways to Earn

### In Shining Bonds a la Mode

* The Winx and Defendix Clubs: Convincing a young girl to believe in their existence as Warriors.

* Roxy: Becoming angered at Event Horizon and focusing her love for her Eevee Artu.

### In Shining Bonds a la Mode: 340 Years Later

* The Fairy Warriors of the main cast and the one Witch Warrior (Warrior Hygiene, Warrior Blitz, Mage Snowberry, Warrior Diamond, and Warrior Colorsplash): Appearing in front of a young girl and her brother in their transformed states after they didn't believe fairies and angels existed, causing the fairies and one witch of the main cast to earn their Believix and getting Emily/Warrior Hygiene one step closer to earning the Sirenix and stronger transformations she wants so badly.

## Magical Abilities

Believix enables a fairy to reach the heart of the people and their feelings. It gives the fairy new energy and the power to heal whoever is in need. Believix comes with four types of wings: the standard wings, and Speedix, Zoomix, and Tracix wings.

### Special Believix Powers

With Believix, a fairy has the power to reach out to someone's heart and help people overcome their bad habits or weaknesses. Every fairy has a different type of this power:

* Bloom: Strength of Life

* Stella: Dawn of Light

* Flora: Breath of the World

* Musa: Bright Heart

* Tecna: Gem of Mind

* Aisha: Spirit of Courage

* Nanette: Dragon of Cosmic Faith

### Effects

With the exception of Nanette, every fairy has a special effect added to their attacks, which is different for each one and has something to do with their main power.

* Fire-Type Warriors like Bloom have hearts.

* Light-Type Warriors like Stella have stars.

* Plant-Type Warriors like Flora have leaves.

* Music-Type Warriors like Musa have music notes.

* Electric-Type Warriors like Tecna have triangles.

* Water-Type Warriors like Aisha have bubbles.

* Animal-Type Warriors like Roxy have paws.

## Gifts of Destiny

*Main Article: Gifts of Destiny*

The power of Believix is ineffective against the Major Fairies of Earth as they are the Supreme Guardians of Nature. Therefore, the heroes needed stronger powers to face the Major Fairies and were given the Gifts of Destiny, the evolution of the Believix power, by the Ethereal Fairies. The Gifts of Destiny provide Believix fairies with two sub-transformations: Sophix, which allows them to unite their magic with the essence of nature in Diana's kingdom, and Lovix, which helps them in the cold regions of the Northern Sinnoh region where Aurora rules. The last Gift of Destiny, the Black Gift, is not a transformation, but a spell that can bring someone back from dead.

## Trivia

* Believix gets stronger when more people believe in magic, which means that if a Believix fairy does not continue to convince people to believe in magic, their powers will weaken.

* The name "Believix" is derived from the word "believe," referring to how it can be earned by making people believe in magic and can in turn make people believe in magic.

* Flora's final pose is identical to that of her Winx transformation in the *Winx Club Nickelodeon Specials*.

* This is the second Fairy Form of Musa's to include a disco dance floor motif in her transformation sequence, with the first being Magix.

* Flora and Nanette are the only fairies to not wear fingerless gloves in their Believix form.

* It is unknown how Nanette was able to access everyone's Speedix in SBALM008 when they didn't even have the Believix form. It can be implied, however, that she wanted to boost the spell Tele-Flash Zip in this way due to having forgotten to get boat tickets.

* Nanette not having effects added to her attacks is intentional on the animators' part as revealed in an *Starry Sky Production Reviews* interview.
* The Light of Hope gives very similar powers to Believix, as it enables its wielder to reach out to somebody in need and heal/free others by grabbing their hand, as shown when Angel Wing frees Necrosis and Event Horizon this way.

* The Black Gift is not seen being used at all in the franchise, though this changes when Blake *inserted* the gift into Jim's upper remains to revive him once he was finished upgrading him.

* Artu actually dies when Roxy earns her Believix, but is luckily revived by Angel Clover.
* Despite being a Witch Warrior (the same Magic Warrior category as the witches from Winx Club) and not a fairy, Phoebe/Mage Snowberry in *340 Years Later* earns her Believix as well (albeit without wings) since witches can earn transformations as well, although they look a bit different and more "Gothic."
