Krabby’s pincers are powerful weapons, which also help it balance when walking sideways. In “Island of the Giant Pokémon,” Ash and friends are washed ashore on a seemingly deserted island and realize that almost all of Ash’s Pokémon are missing! One of Ash’s remaining Pokémon is the loyal Krabby, captured earlier. Krabby is eventually transported to Dr. Oak’s laboratory, because Pokémon trainers are only allowed to carry six Poké Balls at one time.
