Arashi was a novice Zoid pilot. Although he can ride the Liger, a legendary Zoid, he starts off weaker than those around him using much more inferior Zoids. At the start of the series, he is briefly mentored by Quade, and gains considerable skill in a short period of time. By bonding with the Liger he quickly becomes able to use the Wild Blast effortlessly. As time goes on, his skills plateau.
Using his "King Claw" (King of the Claw in Japanese) attack, he proves to be strong, but is defeated on occasion by powerful opponents such as Drake and Gigaboss. In the middle of the series, he is seen facing overwhelming defeat, and enters a raging Berserk mode.
This mode is strong, but uncontrollable, even attacking teammates.
It's not until he meets Quade's old master that he grows considerably in strength. Learning the "Ultra King Claw" (King of Claw Spiral in Japanese) attack, he manages to reach a potency consistently at or above the Four Dark Warriors. After the fall of the Dark Metal Empire, Arashi and Liger continue to travel alone.
