Kleavor looks like it can really mess you up
A new trailer forPokemon Legends: Arceusdebuted this morning, showcasing some of the activities you’re able to do in the Hisui region. And while there is some leisure to partake in, there are also noble Pokemon, which appear to be giant boss battle Pokemon who can really do some damage.
Thetrailerhighlights Kleavor, a Bug/Rock Type Pokemon that looks like a giant, angry Scyther. Dubbed the “Axe Pokemon,” Kleaver is a Scyther that’s evolved into this angry rock monster due to special minerals found in the Hisui region.
The story of PokemonLegends: Arceuslooks to follow why these noble Pokemon are going into a frenzy and attacking people. When frenzied, they grow and shine brightly, and you’ll have to hit them with balms made of their favorite food.
While you can use Pokemon to fight them in battle, it’s really more of a way of slowing them down than fully defeating them, it seems. Defeating them in battle can daze them, letting you pelt them with balms. Hopefully, eventually, you can calm them down. Because good lord, thesePokemon are scary up-close like this.
The upcomingPokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlalso got a new trailer today, showing off the look of the more traditional Pokemon game. The style is growing on me a bit, and whilePokemon Legends: Arceusis doing a lot to explore new territory in thePokemonuniverse,BrilliantDiamondandShining Pearllook to be keeping the spirit of their predecessors going on the Switch.
Pokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlare out on Jun 13, 2025, whilePokemon Legends: Arceusis targeting Jun 23, 2025, both for the Nintendo Switch.
