What else would you add to this base for a scorpion model?
Assuming Wild Caller Summoner with favored into evo points
Quadruped Base
Bite
Legs x2
Str 14 (22)
DEX 14 (17
CON 13 (18)
22 points total at lvl 12 (not using feats yet)
4 Large
2 Arms
1 Pincers
2 Grab (Pincers)
4 Poison 1d4 Con DC 20
2 Tremorsense
1 Tail
1 Sting
1 Climb
1 Pounce
2 Rake
Since i am taking the arms evo, can i add a slam with the pincers? Or would i need to add another set of arms for the slam. Same thing for the tail slap. Separate tail?
What feats would you suggest for Mr. Pinchy? I am thinking of the grapple feats to start off with but there could be better. How else can i get that poison dmg/ DC more effective?
If i wanted to full attack, could i use my pincers first? Hoping to succeed the free grapple check. If not how would the sequence work out?
Could i full attack with just my secondaries and not take the -5 for it?

Regular summoner, not Unchained?
Since you're not cheesing it up like a plain old typical normal average joe regular summoner, it wouldn't be exactly game-breaking to add a slam or tail slap on. However, by the rules, you'd need to put the slams and tail slaps somewhere else, so yes, separate arms and tail. The general rule is 1 attack per extremity, whether it is claws, pincers, slams, swords, or what have you. Only exception I can pull off the top my head is that you can bite and gore with your head. Gives another meaning to "using your head" in combat.
You could full attack in whatever order, I guess. Pincers, tail, whatever. The grab can be done before the tail sting. Tigers pounce and grab and mess you up, I don't see why a giant extraplanar scorpion couldn't.
No, you can't avoid the -5 with secondaries. Even if you only had secondaries, you couldn't avoid the -5. Though actually, by level 12, you should have Multiattack, which makes it only -2.

If the scorpion pounces, does it get 2 extra rakes if the grapple succeeds both times on the pincers? So attack would look like this
Bite, Sting, Pincer (2x rake if succeed), (Pincer 2x Rake if succeed)?
Going by the Evo points i have listed I came up with this stat sheet. With Rapid Grappler i can grapple 3x doing 1d8+9 with 2x Rakes 1d6+9.
