Clauncher
#349 in the Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Pokédex • Water Gun Pokémon
Ultra Sun
Its claws occasionally fall off, and it keeps a low profile until they grow back. The meat of its claws is so delicious!
Ultra Moon
It moves around by jetting water from its right pincer. It has a poor sense of balance, so it’s terrible at swimming straight.
