CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Clauncher concentrates gas in its right claw and detonates it to fire a powerful water jet, strong enough to break rock at close range. It also uses this propulsion to move, though it struggles to swim straight. Its claws can fall off in battle and regrow; meanwhile, it hides. The Pokédex describes a weapon serving movement and leaving its owner vulnerable when missing.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Pokémon Ultra Moon notes that Clauncher propels itself with water from its right claw but cannot swim straight. Pokémon Shield describes the internal gas used to fire at enemies. Its cannon mechanism therefore serves escape as much as attack.

Description from the source
Clauncher's claws will regrow if they fall off. The meat inside the claws is edible, but it has a distinct flavor that doesn't appeal to all tastes.Attacks
