Posted on Reddit by oooWAYNEoooo, a Snapchat screenshot was shared on thePokemon Scarlet and Violetsubreddit, showing a player encountering a shiny Klawf, similar to when aPokemon Scarlet and Violetplayer caught a shiny Klawf with a matching Lure Ball. The original poster revealed the player was their four-year-old son, who managed to find the rare shiny. Fortunately, the OP realized it was a shiny Pokemon before their four-year-old decided to defeat it with a critical strike.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Player’s Four-Year-Old Catches Shiny Klawf
Before the RPG game was released, onePokemon Scarlet and Violetplayer designed a shiny Klawfahead of the final design’s reveal, and fans are still learning neat facts about the alternate design in 2025. One player was admiring the shiny Klawf’s soft blue palette and the effect created when direct light hit its “fuzzy parts.” In response, another player had no idea the crustacean had fuzzy parts. Another Redditor thought the OP should have let their four-year-old defeat the shiny, to gain a new “core memory.”
