Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the latest adventure in the Pokémon franchise, this time bringing with it a whole new open world, new catching mechanics and more. While the deep mysteries of Hisui, and which Pokémon you’re going to encounter, are left for you to solve, there are a few Pokémon that you might need a bit of help catching.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is full of regional variations of popular Pokémon from the history of the series, and you’ll need to catch them all in order to complete the final quest. One of the new evolutions added to older Pokémon is Kleavor, an evolution of generation 1’s Scyther.

How to get Kleavor in Pokémon Legends: Arceus

In order to evolve Scyther into Kleavor, you’re going to need a new item called Black Augurite.

In order to get this item, you need to catch or battle Graveler. These Pokémon have a chance to drop the item. You can also find the item from some of the ore deposits around the Obsidian Fieldlnds. Once you have that item, simply give it to Scyther and it’ll evolve. If you want Scyther’s traditional evolution, Scizor, you’ll need the Metal Coat item.

You’ll need to catch both, and all of the other Hisuian forms if you want to complete the final quest. We have guides for all the trickier Pokémon below, or, if you’d rather check out the whole Pokédex, you can find that, too.
