Overview |
When Clauncher evolve into Clawitzer, their launching claws develop greatly while the rest of their bodies remain mostly unchanged. The right claws of these Pokémon, through the expulsion of highly pressurized gas, can launch large cannonballs of water at high speeds through great distances. Such shots are able to pierce directly through the hulls of tankers even when relatively far away. Additionally, these claws can expel water from specialized nozzles on their rears to propel Clawitzer forwards at 60 knots (70 mph, or 111 km/h). The collapse of the cavitation bubbles these creatures produce when firing water can let loose bright flashes of light incredibly loud booming sounds. Even if Clawitzer miss their prey when hunting (which they often do because of the unwieldy nature of their huge claws), the deafening noise and blinding light they produce often stuns victims long enough to allow them to try again with second shots. The antennae on a Clawitzer’s launching claw can sense changes in water currents to help it detect prey. As with Clauncher, their primary claws fall off occasionally and are prized as a luxury ingredient in high-end restaurants.
