This particularly Clefairy, again, is shiny, and will come with anEvioliteheld item, at level 50. Serebii.net states that the official documents notes that it’ll have glaciate, rather than icy wind. Earlier this year in February, Clefairy was datamined forPokemon Unite: which is still a possibility for the game. It would potentially make sense to do a shiny Clefairy Pokemon event with that in mind, though this is mainly being done to honor the 2021 Asia Player’s Cup contestant.

WithPokemon ScarletandVioletin the pipeline, it stands to reason that all these events will shift over there by the end of the year, as well.
