Tbh this pinata should be a keter. It can kill little kids and transform them into itself then spreads. Yeah definitely a keter.

It's quite easy to contain since it only moves when it's triggered, though.

Nope, it’s Euclid. Keter would mean there’s a high chance it could break out anytime.

They’ve only identified that it’s dangerous to kids and that it reacts to them, not that it can smash through containment, so definitely Euclid.

An SCP object is classified as Euclid when its behavior cannot be unerringly predicted, either because the item is sentient, it behaves outside of current scientific knowledge, or its nature is simply poorly understood at present. Euclid-class objects do not pose the same existential threat to humanity due to containment breach that Keter-class objects do, but they still generally require more diligence to keep contained than Safe-class objects.

Although many Euclid-class objects could be used for the benefit of the Foundation or of humanity, they may have unforeseen ramifications after their use due to their unpredictable nature. Some Euclid-class SCPs are eventually understood well enough to be reclassified as Safe, but most remain inscrutable even to the most rigorous of experimentation.

Definition of EUCLID taken directly from the CSP website.

So...
Can we burn this thing? Its obviously Keter.
We could probably turn it to a neutralized state if we mobilize an MTF on it.
I see no value of keeping this thing alive.

Whoever scanlates this needs to attach a page of how classification works, i.e “safe = stays in the box, etc”. Every chapter always has one or two commenters talking about how something dangerous should be “keter”, even when its correctly classifed.

And for those who think SCPs should be destroyed, it’s honestly one of the worst things one could do, as the process of destruction could turn it into a worse SCP. http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-1609 is the best example of this.

at the very least I read it, and found it to be helpful. i had assumed that the classification was based on a combination of how dangerous it was and how hard it was to contain, so learning about the box test helped explain a few things.

that's not exactly how the classifications work

when that pinata moving in the room and towards the school (wanting to attack)
but unable to getting out
they changed its classifications from Safe to Euclid at that moment

Here’s a quote from scp-1609
“This is why we have Special Containment Procedures instead of Special Destruction Procedures. If you break something, it's broken forever. When you try to destroy an anomaly, you can't take back your mistakes. That's what SCP-1609 has to tell us. This is why we're right and the GOC is wrong, people.

- Dr. Sievert”
