Clawitzer (Japanese: ブロスター Bloster) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.

It evolves from Clauncher starting at level 37.

Biology

Clawitzer is a crustacean Pokémon that resembles a bright blue shrimp. Its body is divided into several segments by black ridges and there are three small spikes behind its head. It has semicircular, yellow eyes, a black stripe across its face, and three pointed mandibles. Its tail consists of three rectangular fins: two black ones and one bright blue one. It lacks legs, but has two clawed arms. The left claw is smaller and is dark blue with a black stripe along the back and a yellow tip. The right claw is a pincer larger than Clawitzer's body. The pincer is dark blue with a pair of thin, yellow antennae on top, three overlapping segments with a black stripe along the back edge, and four black spikes attached to the back of the last segment. The movable lower portion of the pincer is yellow.

Clawitzer's massive claw can suck up water and launch compressed cannonballs capable of piercing tanker hulls Water can also be expelled from the nozzle on the back, which allows it to travel at speeds up to 60 knots. Its massive claw is packed with meat, which can be used as a cooking ingredient.

Major appearances

It was used in a battle against Ash and was able to defeat Noivern and Hawlucha before losing to Greninja. It reappeared in Analysis Versus Passion!, where it defeated Talonflame during another battle against Ash before losing to Pikachu.

A Clawitzer appeared in XYS06, where Bonnie hooked onto it whilst fishing, and it subsequently attacked her. However, Cilan sent out Stunfisk to protect Bonnie.

Minor appearances

Clawitzer debuted in Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction.

A Trainer's Clawitzer appeared in Battle Royal 151, where it competed in the Battle Royal preliminary round of the Manalo Conference but was defeated by Pikachu.

Pokédex entries

Episode Pokémon Source Entry
XY119 Clawitzer Ash's Pokédex Clawitzer, the Howitzer Pokémon and the evolved form of Clauncher. Clawitzer can travel at nearly 70 miles an hour when it propels itself by shooting water from the back of its claw.

In the manga

In Pinsir Glares, Siebold appeared with a Clawitzer in the Lost Hotel.

In the TCG

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Clawitzer makes a cameo appearance in the Kalos Pokémon League stage. When the stage transitions to the Flood Chamber, it can be seen in the background along with Blastoise, Wailord and Piplup.

Trophy information

NA: Clawitzer's right claw is so massive, we wouldn't be surprised if you thought it was this Pokémon's actual body. The name Howitzer Pokémon is no accident - it can pierce the hull of a ship with the watery cannonballs it fires. Unless you've got a water gun that can match that, we'd suggest skipping the water fight with this one.

PAL: Clawitzer's right claw is so enormous, you might mistake that for its body. As implied by the fact that it's the Howitzer Pokémon, that giant claw launches cannonballs (albeit water ones) with terrifying force. If you come at it with a water pistol, you'll find yourself more than a little outmatched. Clawitzer's blasts can pierce tanker hulls!

Trivia

Origin

Clawitzer appears to be based on a snapping shrimp, with its oversized claw and its ability to expel powerful blasts of water from its claw. Its deep blue coloration may be based upon Procambarus alleni, though it may also be a reference to mutated American lobsters.

Name origin

Clawitzer is a combination of claw and howitzer.

Bloster may be a combination of blow, lobster, and blaster.
