It's time to talk about one of Braden's faves and a real cool customer, Sneasel! Join us as we discuss the Sharp Claw Pokemon, the problematic representation of Dark type Pokemon, Taggerung and more! Follow along with the entries below:
Gold: Its paws conceal sharp claws. If attacked, it suddenly extends the claws and startles its enemy.
Silver: Vicious in nature, it drives PIDGEY from their nests and feasts on the eggs that are left behind.
Crystal: This cunning POKéMON hides under the cover of darkness, waiting to attack its prey.
Ruby & Sapphire: SNEASEL scales trees by punching its hooked claws into the bark. This POKéMON seeks out unguarded nests and steals eggs for food while the parents are away.
Diamond: It feeds on eggs stolen from nests. Its sharply hooked claws rip vulnerable spots on prey.
Pearl: It is extremely vicious and will not stop attacking until its foe is incapable of moving.
Platinum: A smart and sneaky Pokémon. A pair may work together to steal eggs by having one lure the parents away.
Black & White 2: A smart and sneaky Pokémon, it makes its opponents flinch by suddenly showing the claws hidden in its paws.
Sun: It has a cunning yet savage disposition. It waits for parents to leave their nests, and then it sneaks in to steal their eggs.
Moon: It uses its claws to poke holes in eggs so it can slurp out the insides. Breeders consider it a scourge and will drive it away or eradicate it.
Ultra Sun: They will cooperate to steal eggs from the nests of bird Pokémon, but fights break out to determine which one gets to eat the eggs.
Ultra Moon: It blends into the dark of night to ambush its prey. Sneasel will attack Sandshrew, but its hard skin can cause Sneasel’s claws to snap off.
Legends: Arceus: This Pokémon shares roots with the Sneasel of Hisui, but unlike that species, this one is spiteful in personality. I hypothesize that water and earth can affect Sneasel’s mind and body.
BTB: It loves to eat eggs and it's trying its best to get them, and it could do without the judgment thank you very much.
