Siphon Claw

Three hands are better than one.

The devastating Siphon Claw is more than just the tail it appears to be—as Ripclaw's primary weapon, it strikes like a cobra, crunching into the enemy and injecting fatal mech venom, then tossing them away.

Bakudora also has a Siphon Claw, and he can use his to drain energy from all the living things around him.

Fiction

Tales of the Beast Hunters

After awakening from her Hyperevolution Chamber, Ripclaw began hunting the Autobots, Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 8 tracking down Bulkhead to the desert. She swooped down from the sky and managed to inject him with the mech venom from her Siphon Claw before the pair even began to fight. Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 9
