What Is The Stony Cliff Titan?

Klawff, the Stony Cliff Titan, is probably the first of the five titan pokemon you face off against. It is mandatory to defeat this pokemon if you want to complete the Path of Legends side quest.

Klawff is a purely Rock-type Pokemon, that resembles a crab. The Stony Cliff Titan takes the form of Klawff visually, but its actual stats as well as physical size are much higher.

If Klawff is the first Titan Pokemon that you go up against, you should be prepared to fight it again once you defeat it for the first time. Just like other titan Pokemon, after you beat Klawff, it will retreat into a cave. There, it consumes the Mystica herb, which significantly boosts its basic stats, as well as restores its HP to the max.
