Through the use of a piece of Black Augurite found in the Hisui region, Scyther could evolve into this powerful Pok\u00e9mon and learn a new signature move, Stone Axe. Yet Kleavor has not yet been made available in any other Pok\u00e9mon title except for Legends: Arceus, though it is expected to be transferable to Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet later this year. But a new announcement from Niantic on April 28 confirmed the Axe Pok\u00e9mon will soon be making its debut in Pok\u00e9mon Go as a limited-time Raid boss, giving players access to the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s strength firsthand. Normally, when new Pok\u00e9mon are added to Pok\u00e9mon Go, it takes a while before their Shiny forms are obtainable, with Niantic usually waiting to feature them in a future event\u2014which could possibly stop players from catching a Kleavor whose coloration matches that of its pre-evolution. Here\u2019s all the information we have about Shiny Kleavor\u2019s availability in Pok\u00e9mon Go. Can Kleavor be Shiny in Pok\u00e9mon Go? Upon Kleavor\u2019s addition to the mobile title during its designated Raid Day on May 6, its Shiny form will become available simultaneously. As it\u2019s not guaranteed to appear after every Raid, players will likely need to complete a number of Kleavor Raids before they encounter a Shiny Kleavor.\u00a0 While it\u2019s not clear when Kleavor will return to Pok\u00e9mon Go after this Raid Day concludes, any subsequent appearance of this Pok\u00e9mon in Raids will retain the ability to be Shiny. Players should note the only way to get Kleavor in Pok\u00e9mon Go is through these specific Raids. Attempting to evolve a Scyther\u2014whether it is Shiny or not\u2014will only result in the option of Scizor being available for now.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Kleavor.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852823"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1895"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=852823"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852823\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":852851,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/852823\/revisions\/852851"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/852839"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=852823"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=852823"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=852823"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=852823"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=852823"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=852823"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=852823"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
