In a new post on the r/PokemonScarletViolet subreddit, user Intelligent-Pen6144 proudly showed off a picture of the Shiny Klawf they caught usingPokemon Scarlet and Violet’s lure ball. The Shiny variant of the crustacean-themedRock Type Pokemonfeatures a baby blue body with red circles on either side of its face, which matches perfectly with the similarly red and blue Lure Ball shown below it in the Pokedex. One of several different Pokeballs for players to choose from inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, the Lure Ball is particularly effective when trying to catch Pokemon via fishing.
Fans ofPokemon Scarlet and Violetresponding to the post were amused by the adorable Pokemon and its matching Pokeball. Wondering if Intelligent-Pen6144 would continue the aquatic theme when evolving their new Pokemon, one user inquired if they would give the Klawf a water Tera Type to match the Lure Ball. Another user remarked on the startled look of the ocean-colored Klawf in the screenshot, joking that “she looks embarrassed to have her photo taken.”
While ensuring that the colors of their creatures match those of their containers may not be every player’s idea of fun, it’s hard to deny that this Klawf and its Lure Ball make a stylish duo. For the gamers who’d rather spend their time reeling in some real-world catches, though, there’s always the option of buying aPokemon-themed fishing lure.
