If blissey were fairy/normal
I sometimes see people mistake blissey as fairy/normal. I'm wondering if she would be a better defender with that typing. What are your thoughts?

But the Dazzling Gleam would have punch! I think it would be close to a wash if it had DG.
Most poison/steel attackers don't have a lot of punch to their attacks - not the type of attackers to hit Blissey. To hit Blissey, you need hard-hitting attackers like Eggy, Flareon. Machamp would become a bigger threat.
So, Blissey would take more damage from Fighting/Steel/Poison, but would dish out STAB with Dazzling Gleam...
Well look at what is most effective against Wigglytuff and you basically have your answer:
- Gengar with Sludge Bomb
- Flareon would resist Dazzling Gleam while dealing amazing damage with Fire Spin / Overheat
- Dragonite with Steel Wing
- Scizor with Steel moves would be a beast against her, dealing super effective damage while resisting her best moves (Psychic would be the best one to have in this situation, imo)
- Victreebel and Nidoking would most likely be up there in terms of damage with Poison moves, but they are frail so not sure about them... Muk is a bit tankier though.
