What Is A Fairy:
Game Freak does need to figure out what makes a Fairy Pokemon a Fairy Pokemon. We have Pokemon that look like they would be classified as Fairies but aren't and Pokemon who don't look anything close to a Fairy being a Fairy-type. It's the same situation as Dragon-types if you think about it.
As for them making more traditional fey Pokemon instead of the modern day version of fairies, I think that depends all on the fairy the Pokemon is based on. As stage7_4 pointed out they're willing to do non-modern Fairy representation, they just need the reason to do it. Now the easiest reason would be using the mythology of the real world location that the region is based on. If you want Fairies than probably Scottish and Irish is the region you want next. Though there are plenty of fairies to go around.
Watch Your Yokai:
I think Cresselia~~ is saying Yokai Watch can't really base their creatures off anything like Pokemon can as Yokai Watch uses traditional Yokai for their monsters... well, used to. The 3rd Yokai Watch game is taking place in the US and the "Yokai" they've shown for that game are not traditional Yokai monsters but rather based on US pop culture. So it looks like Yokai Watch is expanding their sources to at least other mythologies and pop culture... BUT that doesn't include animals, concepts, and objects.
This Isn't Even My Final Formes:
Perfect Zygarde is cool, though I'm still more interested whether there will be more Formes. You don't introduce a 10%, 50%, 100% gimmick without their being at least some more forms, right?
