Clauncher is making their debut in Pokémon Go during Rival’s Week. They’ll be appearing alongside rival Pokémon, Skrelp. Both of them will be appearing more often in the wild, in raids, and as field research rewards you receive from Pokéstops. For those who want to add a set of Pokémon from the Kalos region, make sure you jump in on the Rival’s Week event from April 13 to the 18 to catch them. However, don’t expect to see the vibrantly unique shiny version of Clauncher appearing at this time.
Whenever a new Pokémon appears in Pokémon Go, they have an increased spawn rate during an event, and players are eager to hunt them down and evolve them. Clauncher becomes Clawitzer, remaining a Water-type. Developer Niantic always promotes these Pokémon, but they don’t release the shiny version at the same time. That typically happens during a future event months later, or even years, after the Pokémon has been introduced.
