It electrifies its claws and tears its opponents apart with them. Even if they dodge its attack, they’ll be electrocuted by the flying sparks.

Extremely underappreciated card. Dynamotor Flaaffy or Eelektrik plus manual attachment allows a potential 250 damage per turn, which can be increased further by Max Elixir, Muscle Band/Choice Belt, and Electropower. You would think it would be popular at least among casual and budget players, but it seems nobody has ever really used it at all. Very strange.
Lovely art, too!

“Crushing Claw” works exactly the same as “Crushing Punch” (which debuted on Machamp Prime).

Other “Crush” attacks that automatically discard energy cards, without any coin flip or energy discarding on your end:
Slaking’s “Crushing Blow”
Mewtwo’s “Psycrush GX”
M Scizor EX’s “Iron Crusher,” and
Porygon-Z’s “Cyber Crush.”
