Collector Insights

Krabby is a Water-type Pokémon with 50 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It has two attacks: "Call for Family" requires one Water energy to search the deck for a Basic Krabby and place it on the Bench, provided the Bench is not full, while "Irongrip" uses one Water and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage. The card's flavor text highlights its pincers as both weapons and tools for balance during sideways movement. It belongs to the Base set, released in 1999 as part of the Fossil series, and is illustrated by artist Mitsuhiro Arita. The card's theme color is a shade of teal, matching its Water type. It has no resistances but is weak to Lightning, which deals double damage. Krabby is a Common rarity card, numbered 51 in its series.

Its pincers are not only powerful weapons, they are used for balance when walking sideways.
