Is the Pokemon GO Sewaddle Community Day worth playing from a PvP and PvE perspective?
Sewaddle's final evolution Leavanny—especially with Shadow Claw—has some interesting potential in Pokemon GO PvP across the Great League and Ultra League. This makes the October Community Day a great chance to look for the top IV variants of this critter.
That said, the Sewaddle line is all but useless from a PvE perspective as well as in the Master League. Therefore, a perfect IV version is only worth the collector's value.

Brief analysis of Shadow Claw Leavanny in Pokemon GO
Shadow Claw Leavanny in Pokemon GO PvP
Shadow Claw Leavanny has increased potential in matchups against critters that aren't weak to Bug-type damage. It gives Leaf Blade a quicker charge, leading to Leavanny dealing more Charged Move damage. This turns matches for the creature in both the Great and Ultra Leagues.
Shadow Claw Leavanny in Pokemon GO PvE
Leavanny with Shadow Claw is not an improvement over its Bug Bite or Razor Leaf variants in the PvE meta. It is neither strong enough to merit use as an attacker, nor does it boast the strength to be one of the best Gym Defenders in Pokemon GO.
