Kleavor is a mantis-like insect with a craggy exoskeleton featuring a rock-like composition. Its predominantly beige and white body is adorned with numerous black rocky protrusions, including a ring of angular rocks on each of its shoulders, a mask of rock lining its brows down to its jawline, two sharp toe claws on each foot, and a single black shard of rock atop the crown of its head. The large wings present on Scyther's back seem to have atrophied into vestigial features on Kleavor. Most notably, each of Kleavor's two spindly front limbs end in large axe-like appendages made of heavy black rock, capable of causing severe damage to the hardiest of foes. Kleavor swings these appendages to carve and chop down trees, marking its territory.
Kleavor is an evolution of Scyther caused by Black Augurites found in Hisui. The stones that adorn Kleavor's body often get chipped during fierce fights; larger chips are a sign that it is experienced in battle. Stone shards that fell off Kleavor during battle were known to have been collected and used by the settlers of Hisui to craft tools. Kleavor are known to be very hostile, to the point that it is best avoided if ever encountered in the wild.
Kleavor is playable in Pokémon Dazzling Platinum. Scyther can evolve into this Pokémon by leveling up while holding a Black Augurite, and it must also have a happiness value of 220.

Description
Dazzling Platinum
The axes on its arms are strong enough to cut down a sequoia tree in one stroke. If anyone was to intrude its territory, its disposition instantly turns volatile, unleashing multiple swings with both axes until the intruder is reduced to fragments.
