Roberta's Clefable

**Roberta's Clefable** (Japanese: **ロバータのピクシー** *Robata's Pixy*) is the fourth known Pokémon Roberta was seen to possess.

## **History**

### **Kanto**

Clefable was seen in action while she was still a Clefairy, alongside Jigglypuff, where they disrupted Sabrina's psychic powers with Grown and Sing, respectively, as the sound-based attacks disrupted her focus. As the illusion vanished, Roberta decided that she could not fight the Gym Leader and her powers, and leaves the room with Sabrina's Marsh Badge.

Clefairy later battled against a monstrous hybrid of Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno, although her Trainer had fainted from the shock of seeing the terrifying creature. In inspiration, Edge realizes that Roberta must have wanted his Moon Stone for a plan, and uses the item on her Clefairy, evolving it into Clefable. To Sabrina's shock, Clefable promptly launches several attacks in quick succession; Robyn Oak explains the phenomena as a result of its Metronome, before continuing it with a powerful Dazzling Gleam attack, distracting in order to allow Edge and the others to escape.

### **Two Years Later**

When Roberta and Sabrina were battling against Lorelei, Roberta distracted Lorelei enough to allow Clefable to approach her through Minimize and steal Lorelei's voodoo dolls. Blastoise protects Clefable from Jynx, but Clefable trips and the dolls break apart, causing Roberta to lose her arm. Lorelei scoffs at her and begins to leave, but the arm on the floor turns out to be Roberta's Ditto, and wraps up Lorelei and Jynx. Roberta explains that her real arm was underneath the coat she was wearing. Lorelei commends her performance and Roberta tells her that she was also impressive. Roberta sympathizes with Lorelei as she feels that she was also guilty of fighting on the wrong side. Sabrina wakes up and yells at Roberta for not telling her that she was attached to a Ditto, and they continue to argue as they leave.

### **Crisis of Deoxys**

Clefable and Jigglypuff tried to protect Roberta's parents from Deoxys's clones while the Pokédex holders tried to fight them off.

Later, Clefable is seen alongside Roberta's other Pokémon attempting to free Mewtwo from its M2 Bind. Edge's Venusaur, Robyn's Charizard and Roberta's Blastoise use their most powerful elemental attacks at once, and to ensure maximum power, Roberta evolves Jigglypuff to Wigglytuff, alongside Snubbull and Nidorina, who became Granbull and Nidoqueen, respectively, allowing them to provide greater support for the Shellfish Pokémon's Hydro Cannon.

### **Battle Frontier**

Clefable appeared alongside the rest of Roberta's team when she was checking to make sure they all survived the petrification caused by Sird.

## **New Era**

### **Intermission**

When Harlynn, during her crazed psychotic outburst, ordered her Solrock and Lunatone to blow themselves up in an attempt to eliminate Dwayne, Clefable was summoned to contain the explosion, and after both Pokémon were sent down towards a crater made by Roberta's Nidoqueen, Clefable, Dwayne's Eevee (who used Copycat to mimic Clefable), and Fabius's Machop all used Protect around the crater to prevent the explosion from harming anyone, which they were successfully able to do so.

## **Personality and Characteristics**

Clefable was characterised as being a very naughty Pokémon, always seen to enjoy hurting its opponents, although Clefable only showcases these traits towards villainous individuals, as for Roberta, and by extension, her allies, Clefable becomes concerned and friendly, seen as when Clefable single-handedly battled against Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno's monstrous hybrid to allow Edge and his friends to escape to safety (especially since Roberta was amongst them, albeit unconscious).
