The new member will appear in three-star raids, and according to the official Pokemon Go site, if you work hard and are lucky enough, you might also encounter Shiny Kleavors. The raid will start on 6th May 2023 from 11.00 am to 2.00 pm local time. This article will help you to know everything about Kleavor, including its weaknesses and best counters.
Who is Kleavor in Pokémon Go?
Kleavor is a powerful Bug/Rock-type Pokémon from the Hisui region. It is a non-legendary eighth-generation creature with caramel color body. The shiny Kleavor has a forest green color body. Catching Kleavor will give you 75,000 Stardust and 75 Candies. Kleavor is known to be a dangerous creature. It cuts down tall trees with its crude axes and uses hard rocks to protect itself. If you see this Pokémon in the wild, the only thing you can do is run away.
This raid is the only way to catch a Kleavor because Scyther can’t evolve into Kleavor for the moment. During the raid, Kleavor will show up more often, and your chances of getting a Shiny Kleavor will increase. Spinning Gym Photo Discs can earn you up to five daily Raid Passes during the event and for two hours afterward. From 12:00 am to 11:59 pm local time on Saturday, 6th May 2023, the Remote Raid Pass limit will increase to 10.
After you beat Kleavor, you will be allowed several Premier Balls to try to catch it. Silver Pinap Berries and Excellent Curveball Throws can help you succeed in catching one.
