Kleavorin Pokémon Polished Crystal

bugrock

Pokédex Entry

Axe Pokémon

A violent creature that fells towering trees with its crude axes and shields itself with hard stone. Kleavor is the alternative evolution instead of Scizor. It uses Bug/Rock which is a unique match-up. Sharpness boosts will boost any of the 'slicing' moves, which makes Slash and X-Scissor hit at 150% power. Not too frail, however it does have a wicked weak Special Attack.
