Krabby (Japanese: クラブ Crab) is a Water-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Krabby somewhat resembles the creature they are based on, the crab, except that they only have three pairs of legs instead of five: one pair are claws and the other two are used for walking. Krabby's top half is a Template:A2 that is orange in color. Its claws can break off, but regenerate later, much like real crabs.
Gender differences
None.

Habitat
Diet
Main article: Pokémon food
They are scavengers that feed on whatever debris is in their environment. Krabby also eats mouthfuls of sand for nutrients.
In the anime
Gary Oak has a larger-than-average Krabby, which has never been seen in battle.
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 its first battle, Krabby evolved into a Kingler.
In the second movie, The Power of One, a joke is told 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 Template:PSV. This act of kindness prompts Suicune to pick Misty as his trainer, besides her being the expert for Water-type Pokémon.
