I had my little cousins over earlier and while they were here they were working with glitter and my Murkrow became covered head to claw in glitter. What’s the best method for getting glitter off of a Murkrow?

There are a couple ways you could do this, but the easiest is using a lint roller. That may sound strange, but it’s amazing what you can do with a lint roller.

If your murkrow refuses to sit still for that, fill a spray bottle with cold water, get a pokémon brush, and herd your murkrow into a small room. Make sure the windows are locked, and close the door behind you before starting in. The idea in theory is that you will use the bottle to moisten your murkrow’s feathers (and thus allow the glitter to be combed off) and then use the brush to clean your murkrow. What will actually happen is that your murkrow will likely fly about your room frantically, perhaps land a Peck or two, and then, after your murkrow is exhausted thanks to its attempts to get away from you and your spray bottle, maybe it will allow you to bathe it.

Alternatively, fill a bathtub with cool water and herd your murkrow in, perhaps by using a handheld mirror to guide him. This might also work, but your murkrow might attempt to drink the bathwater if it sees how shiny it becomes as the glitter washes off. Needless to say, you should avoid letting your murkrow drink bathwater.

Best of luck, anonymous … which is a phrase I use often but especially mean here.
