ᐧ Is Reaping Claw meant to combo with Earthen Seal Stone? Unfortunately, unlike something like Normalium Z which could provide a GX attack to a non-GX Pokémon, Earthen Seal Stone will not provide its VSTAR Power to a non-V Pokémon. Armaldo still works fine without it, of course.
ᐧ Reaping Claw was originally かりとるかぎづめ [𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐮 𝐊𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐝𝐳𝐮𝐦𝐞]. Reaping Claw isn’t an incorrect translation by any means, but “Reap” is a word that’s can be read with an ominous/spooky connotation, and that isn’t intended here. To avoid it, they could’ve translate the attack as ‘Harvest Claw’, but they would then lose what appears to be a reference to the Therizinosaurus. Per Wikipedia;
“Therizinosaurus, is derived from the Greek θερίζω (therízo, meaning scythe, reap or cut) and σαῦρος (sauros, meaning lizard).”
