Rainbow Stag Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I caught a rainbow stag! Its rainbow armor is so shiny!

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  Rainbows are beautiful things, I'm sure we all agree. But rainbow stag beetles? Bleech!

  Yes, yes, this beetle's back and belly shine with a pretty rainbow-colored luster.

  But that does not change the fact this bug has large pincers on its face and loves to pick a fight.

  If one can wish upon a rainbow, then I wish to stay far away from the rainbow stag.

  Perhaps I've picked the wrong profession.
