Budclaw is listed in 4 habitats. Which creatures actually appear also depends on weather, time of day, and local phenomena, so a listed habitat is where to look rather than a guarantee.

Habitat
Zephyrus Landbridge
Nimbus Fields
Berylline Causeway
Beast Fang Ridge

Trait

Every Aniimo carries a passive Trait that is always active while it fights alongside a Pathfinder.

Trait	Effect
Stealth	Skills build Momentum when they deal damage, up to 6 stacks. Momentum gain is doubled during tunneling. At max stacks, increases BREAK efficiency by 30% for 15s.

Mobility

Mobility abilities are what a Pathfinder gains while Twining with this Aniimo, so they double as traversal tools rather than combat moves.

Ability	Effect
Tunnel	Tunnels underground to become immune to all ranged attacks by continuously consuming stamina. Pound skills can launch the Aniimo into the air.

Budclaw brings 3 combat skills and 1 innate skill into a fight. Power is the skill's published damage figure and Cost is what it draws from the resource bar.
