How to Get Razor Claws in Pokemon Legends Arceus

Razor claw is a former held item that was introduced back in the original Diamond and Pearl games. Over the years it has had use as a powerful held item that increases your critical hit rate but also, and more importantly, as the way to evolve Sneasel into Weavile. In Pokemon Legends Arceus, you can evolve your Sneasel into Sneasler using the same item, Razor Claw.

Razor Claws can be obtained in a few ways. Let’s go over all of them. Rarely, Sneasel will drop them when caught/defeated. Just keep fighting them until you get it.

If you don’t want to do that, what might be easier is hunting for them in Space-Time Distortions. These are special areas that will appear randomly in the field. You’ll get a notification that one is spawning where you are, and then you’ll need to look to the sky for the big dome-like space covering a large swath of area. Enter, wait a few minutes and then a storm will brew and the distortion will begin proper.

When that happens, items will spawn on the ground and you’ll have a chance of finding a Razor Claws. Just be careful because powerful Pokemon will appear as well. Make sure your satchel is clear too.

Finally, you can also occasionally get Razor Claws from shops. The Ginko Guild will sometimes sell them, and you can also buy them using Merit Points from Simona’s stall, both found in Jubilife Village.

Three Ways to Get Razor Claws in Pokemon Legends Arceus

  • Rarely dropped by Sneasel
  • Picked up off the ground in Space-Time Distortions
  • Can be sold by Ginko Guild occasionally, and all the time using Merit Points in Jubilife Village.
