How would the psionic power Claws of the Beast extend to Huge and larger creatures?

What I am looking at specifically is a Half-Ogre Wilder with the Expansion power and Claws of the Beast.

Easiest way to do it is to use the Improved Natural Attack progression:


Choose one of the creature’s natural attack forms. The damage for this natural weapon increases by one step, as if the creature’s size had increased by one category: 1d2, 1d3, 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 2d6, 3d6, 4d6, 6d6, 8d6, 12d6.

A weapon or attack that deals 1d10 points of damage increases as follows: 1d10, 2d8, 3d8, 4d8, 6d8, 8d8, 12d8.

Easy, but inaccurate - the chart itself doesn't follow that pattern. The increases do wrap, though, so for early levels you could move down the chart instead of across it, and simply keep adding a d6 each time after you go off the end of the chart; this is still a houserule, though, and a DM could as easily rule that claws larger than Large provide no additional benefit.
