But (at least in the 5E monster manual) pixies in particular are described as mischievous, but not in a malicious way, their pranks are described as harmless (and I guess the MM uses the human definition of harmless, not a fey one 😄). The description makes them appear as benevolent, while still being little pranksters.

Another possibility could be to simply state that they can be mischievous in the lore check - and leave the definition of that up to the interpretation of the player.

Sorry, I should have made more clear that I was only talking about the lore check part - not about this particular pixie's personality.

I think so, too - of course this pixie can be rude, she's an individual with her own personality.

The parts of this scene that bothered me were the lore check description, because it's quite different to the 5E description, and the unfinished looking model.
