'''Krabby''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クラブ''' ''Crab'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

===Physiology===
Krabby is a {{wikipedia|crustacean}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a strong outer shell protecting its small body. Its upper half is red and has its eyes and two small spikes on the top of its head. Its light tan arms are also connected to its upper body. Its lower body is light tan and doubles as its jaw with two fangs overlapping its upper body. Its hips are visible on the lower front of its body connected to its four long, thin legs. Each leg has a single, claw-like foot. The main features of Krabby's body are the two large, red pincers at the end of its arms. Krabby uses them as its main form of offense, and as a form of balance. Sometimes, Krabby may lose a claw during battle or have a damaged claw forcibly removed. However, the claw regenerates over a short period.
Krabby resembles a {{wp|crab}}. Krabby's top half is a {{a|Shell Armor|hard shell}} that is orange in color, with two protrusions atop it. The lower half of its body is cream-colored, with fang-like protrusions below the mouth; Krabby's {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with an insectoid body|four legs and two arms}} are also cream-colored. Krabby has a pair of large pincers that it uses as powerful weapons or for balance purposes when it walks sideways.  
====Gender differences====
None.


===Special abilities===
In the wild, Krabby lives {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|near the edge of water}} in both fresh and salt water. Krabby is most commonly found on beaches where it burrows in the sand. In times of scarce food sources, it may eat sand to regain nutrients and will be very aggressive in defending its home. Its main form of defense is creating foam to shroud its body, in order to confuse opponents into thinking that it is bigger than it actually is. As seen in the ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' episode ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', Krabby generally keeps to itself, but will quickly defend itself if provoked.
If a Krabby loses a pincer in battle, it will completely grow back in a short period of time.


===Behavior===
Prior to [[Generation III]], Krabby and its evolved form, {{p|Kingler}}, were the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Crabhammer}}.
On beaches where food is hard to come by, Krabby can be seen squabbling with each other over territory. When Krabby sense imminent danger, they will cloak themselves with bubbles from its mouth in an attempt at looking bigger and more intimidating.


===Habitat===
===Evolution===
[[File:Waters-edge Habitat.png|thumb|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Krabby evolves into {{p|Kingler}}.
Krabby live on beaches, burrowed inside holes dug into the sand. They are normally found in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], but migrate to [[Sinnoh]] from time to time.


===Diet===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
{{main|Pokémon food}}
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Krabby are known as scavengers and feed on whatever debris they happen upon in their environment. If food is too scarce, Krabby will also eat mouthfuls of sand to obtain nutrients.

{{Dex/Entry1|v=Silver|entry=The pincers break off easily. If it loses a pincer, it somehow becomes incapable of walking sideways.}}
During ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'' in [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Red}} caught a Krabby off-screen while he had some {{adv|Blue}}'s Pokémon in his party by mistake. Later in ''[[PS024|What a Dragonite]]'', after {{HM|03|Surf}} was destroyed Krabby was traded for [[Misty]]'s {{p|Gyarados}}, [[Gyara]], since it already knew how to use Surf. Misty later saves a Krabby trapped in [[Tohjo Falls]] in {{PAV|12}}. This act of kindness prompts {{p|Suicune}} to pick Misty as its Trainer, besides her being the expert for {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

During ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', {{adv|Red}} {{pkmn2|caught}} a Krabby off-screen while he had some {{adv|Blue}}'s Pokémon in his party by mistake. Later, in ''[[PS024|What a Dragonite]]'', after {{HM|03|Surf}} was destroyed Krabby was traded for [[Misty]]'s {{p|Gyarados}}, [[Gyara]], since he already knew how to use Surf. She later appeared again with Misty worrying for Red in ''[[PS044|Do Wrong, Dewgong!]]''.
 
A Krabby appeared in ''[[PS091|Murkrow Row]]'', where it resided in {{adv|Gold}}'s house.

====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Krabby is a corruption of ''crabby'' (grouchy or ill-tempered) and is more than likely just a pun on ''{{wp|crab}}'', as nothing suggests Krabby is ill-tempered.
Krabby may be a combination of ''{{wp|crab}}'' and ''crabby'' (grouchy or ill-tempered).


Crab is literally ''crab''.

Krabby (Japanese: クラブ Crab) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Kingler starting at level 28.

Biology

Krabby is a crustacean Pokémon with a strong outer shell protecting its small body. Its upper half is red and has its eyes and two small spikes on the top of its head. Its light tan arms are also connected to its upper body. Its lower body is light tan and doubles as its jaw with two fangs overlapping its upper body. Its hips are visible on the lower front of its body connected to its four long, thin legs. Each leg has a single, claw-like foot. The main features of Krabby's body are the two large, red pincers at the end of its arms. Krabby uses them as its main form of offense, and as a form of balance. Sometimes, Krabby may lose a claw during battle or have a damaged claw forcibly removed. However, the claw regenerates over a short period.

In the wild, Krabby lives near the edge of water in both fresh and salt water. Krabby is most commonly found on beaches where it burrows in the sand. In times of scarce food sources, it may eat sand to regain nutrients and will be very aggressive in defending its home. Its main form of defense is creating foam to shroud its body, in order to confuse opponents into thinking that it is bigger than it actually is. As seen in the Pokémon the Series episode Mystery at the Lighthouse, Krabby generally keeps to itself, but will quickly defend itself if provoked.

Prior to Generation III, Krabby and its evolved form, Kingler, were the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Crabhammer.

Evolution

Krabby evolves into Kingler.
