Emerald arc

In Interesting Interactions Involving Illumise, a Quick Claw was listed as the held item of a rental Skarmory that Emerald used at the Battle Factory.

A Quick Claw was held by the Metagross that Emerald borrowed from Crystal for his battle against Tucker in A Cheeky Charizard Change-Up I, allowing it to outspeed Tucker's Charizard and trap it in a doubly super-effective Rock Tomb. This proved to be not enough to knock the Flame Pokémon out, however, and Charizard was able to defeat Metagross with Overheat.
