Biology
A special mineral found in the Hisui region known as the Black Augurite causes Scyther native to the region to evolve into Kleavor. Standing 5 feet 11 inches (180 cm) tall, Kleavor resembles an anthropomorphic bipedal yellow and white praying mantis with two legs that end in dual-clawed feet with raised heels, and two arms that have brown large axe-like protrusions at the end.
Its shoulders are encircled with rock-like brown protrusions, and similar protrusions cover its brow. On its back, it has a pair of small white wings jutting from each shoulder. Parts of its body have hardened into stone.

The stone parts often get chipped during fierce battles, and Kleavor that have survived many battles will display larger chipping across their bodies. However, the chipping actually makes these stone parts sharper, increasing their slicing power. It is said that the people of Hisui once used pieces of stone that had fallen from Kleavor to craft tools.
Design & origin
Called Basagiri in Japan, Kleavor has a design noted for its references to real-world insects and Japanese culture.
