She is able to use some abilities but due to being in a caste that doesn't really need to fight I don't think she can summon her weapon. It has been confirmed that she has no weapon by the Crewniverse. Presumably "scientist"-class Gems like her don't come with weapons. Pearl wasn't "built for fighting" either, as she likes to sing. Or cry. Or sing while crying. Yet she can summon spears and swords, I gess that's something Peridot can learn too.

Pearls, being a servant class, probably come with the ability to summon weapons in order to protect their mistress should the need arise. I mean, they might not be good at it by default but since they'd probably gladly sacrifice themselves so their mistress could escape or something...
