Where to find Ripclaw
Ripclaw never sets foot on land. The only water it surfaces in is The Lake, shared with 91 other species, and the only way to bring one up is a rod you forged yourself. Walk the shoreline until the water moves.
How to catch Ripclaw
Ripclaw is one of the 126 legendaries, and the world treats it that way: it refuses anything below a Master ball, its base rate is 6% before your timing counts, and 49 of the 608 are harder to land. Throwing does not scare it off, it freezes it, and in The Lake, where 92 species share the ground, whoever else is standing there throws at the same frozen target.
Supply
The cap on Ripclaw is 35, which puts it among the 110 species capped at forty or fewer, and when it fills the species is gone from the spawn table for good.
In a fight
As one of 85 water types sharing The Lake, it hits Fire hard and loses ground to Nature, Thunder, Celestial, which is what will be thrown at it. It leans hard on raw attack: 125 against 85 for its next best, a gap of 40 that decides how it wants to be played.

Questions
Where do I find Ripclaw in NOKEMON?
The Lake. It never comes on land, so you need a forged rod rather than a ball. No level gate and no PvP, so the only thing standing between you and one is finding it.
How do I catch Ripclaw?
Throw a Master ball or better and win the timing bar. The base rate is 6% and your accuracy moves it, but the ball is spent whether you land the catch or not, so carry more than you think you need.
Is Ripclaw rare?
Yes. The cap is 35, enforced at the instant of capture, and nothing refills it: when it fills, the only way to own one is to buy it from a player.
What are the shiny odds on Ripclaw?
About 1 in 333 per capture. Nothing improves it: no ball, no streak, no item and no amount of waiting. The only lever you have is how many you throw at.
