Notable members Giant Wildclaw

Wildclaws are Rabbid enemies in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. They are large tiger-Rabbid hybrids that have a giant claw. Similar to Smashers from Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, they have relatively low movement range and can only attack at close range using their giant claws to perform a slam attack if they get close enough to one of the player's characters; however, if a Wildclaw is attacked, it will run towards the character that launched the attack, followed by a counterattack if the Wildclaw is able to catch up to its target. Wildclaws are weak against Splash and resist Burn.

Wildclaws can also be summoned as allies by a Spark called Wildclaw Master.

Profiles

Memory bio

These creatures inherited feline DNA, giving them formidable predatory instincts. They rush their attacker instantly when assaulted - a habit we can use to our advantage to lure them where we wish.

These Wildclaws despise contact with water, and are resistant to fire-based attacks. To my surprise, I find them both menacing and cute, a reminder that bioforms are complex, varied, and often hold contradictions.

Variants

There are three variants of Wildclaw.

• Deep Freezes, arctic versions that cause the Frostbite status effect. Their technique inflicts Frostbite around it when it is defeated.
• Magnafowls, black versions that use rubber chickens as weapons. They can gather heros towards it using a technique similar to Magnet Dance.
• Riptides, blue versions that hold fish-shaped objects.
