On Faeries, in particular, the blue-winged faerie.

There are many sub species of faeries and spirits as the evolution and development of faeries are greatly influencewd by environmental factors and the power of the ley lines that surround their environment. Faeries and spirits were created by magic! They are the purest forms of magic to exist. However, that is changing as time passes and as they evolve. Once at the beginning of time, they began with no coporal form and as time went on, they started develop their own forms depending on their location. Some became more humanoid looking than others due to their contact with humanity and others could never pass off as a human.

Now, there are many classification of faeries, some more malicious and cruel than others. Most of these classifications are based on their wing colour  however some don't have wings at all and are classified by other means. For example, the pink-winged faerie are the most gentle and shy of all the faeries. They avoid humanity and other creatures at all costs and only approach pokemon willingly.

Blue(ironically) is from the blue-wing family of faries. The blue-wing faeries are known for their mischeivous nature and their talent for trickery, basic shape shifting abilities, illusions and what not. Unlike most faeries they have two forms - in their tiny faerie form, they are incredibly delicate but have stronger access to their power. In their humanoid form which they take on to blend in with humans, their powers are more limited. They have elemental ties with water and wind and so, as protection, they hone those attacks to protect themselves. Now, the blue-winged faries are a dying race. Because they interact with humans most often, they are easily hunted down and killed for their wings and their dust. This led to the development of swapping human babies out for their own, leading them to be dubbed the changelings.

By swapping human babies for their own, they ensure their child will reach adulthood safely and eventually, the hidden longing the child has to return to the wild and reunite with their faerie family will lead them away from their human families or their human families discover their true nature and cast them out, forcing them to join the faeries. Most human children are usually kept around as servants and second class citizens once the faerie child has returned. Blue and her human counter part are actually the exception to the norm.
