In the anime
Ash captured a Krabby in Mystery at the Lighthouse. It was transfered to Professor Oak's lab. Ash didn't use Krabby until Round One - Begin!. After defeating an Exeggutor in that first battle, Krabby evolved into a Kingler.
Gary Oak has a larger-than-average Krabby, which has never been seen in battle.
In the second movie, The Power of One, they tell a joke where the punch line is "At least I don't have Krabbies!"
In the manga
Red catches a Krabby in Pokémon Special which he trades for Misty's Gyarados. Misty later saves a Krabby trapped in Tohjo Falls in Volume 12. This act of kindness prompts Suicune to pick Misty as his trainer, besides her being the expert for Water Pokémon.
