The only clue I can work from at the minute is the HP Absorb clue. That being the case I'm gonna hazard a guess at Red XIII's Blood Fang limit break as it drains enemy HP. I don't see how it fits in with the rest of the riddle though.
Some good stuff here. You're on the right track with your hazarded guess!

1) I should point out - and this is my fault, in retrospect - that I didn't mean "drain HP" in the FF sense of drain, i.e., absorb. I just meant to cause damage, in general.
2) You could answer this riddle even if you had no idea the shrubbery thing was a Monty Python reference. So the word "shrubbery" might be relevant.
