Acquisition

Pokémon Conquest

In Pokémon Conquest, Dusclops evolves into Dusknoir if it knocks out a Warrior's Pokémon in a manner that allows recruitment while its own Warrior is equipped with a Reaper Cloth.

Reaper Cloth can be purchased from the traveling merchant for 5000 gold, and sold for 2500-3250 gold.

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

Diamond & Pearl arc

In Problematic Probopass and Mad Magnezone III, Fantina's Duskull used its Reaper Cloth to save Diamond and Pearl from a fall.

In Yikes, Yanmega! II, Roseanne revealed that she researched Evolution items while studying Pokémon Evolution, including the Reaper Cloth.

In the TCG

A Reaper Cloth appears as a held item on the Secret Wonders Duskull card. It allows Duskull to evolve on the turn it is played. This contrasts with other media, in which the Reaper Cloth allows Dusclops to evolve into Dusknoir rather than Duskull to evolve into Dusclops.

Trivia

• The song Ghost Dive references the Reaper Cloth in its lyrics.
• The Japanese name of the Reaper Cloth, as well as Dusknoir's Pokédex entries, reference the Ghost World.
