Crabrawler

SUN

While guarding its weak points with its pincers, it looks for an opening and unleashes punches. When it loses, it foams at the mouth and faints.

MOON

It punches so much, its pincers often come off from overuse, but they grow back quickly. What little meat they contain is rich and delicious.
