'''Crabs''' in | '''Crabs''' are a species of animal found in several ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games. They are often portrayed either in the same way as their real-life counterparts or as enemies. | ||

It is never actually seen onscreen (likely owing to the show's poor modeling budget), but it causes large amounts of havoc in the episode regardless. | ||

In ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', crabs can be found on [[N64 Koopa Troopa Beach|Koopa Troopa Beach]], where they walk left and right. Driving over one makes the player spin around. [[Sidestepper]]s replace crabs in later installments. | |||

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' for the [[Game Boy Advance]], [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] may encounter a crab during a challenge at [[Funky's Fishing]]. The crab has no effect on the [[Kongs]]' score, but if they can succeed in hooking it, they will earn themselves a special [[Photograph]] from [[Funky Kong]]. It scurries across the bottom of the water rather quickly, and it appears randomly, so the Kongs should always keep an eye out for it. Once the crab is caught, it never appears again in the challenge mode. However, when the game is played from the minigame menu, multiple crabs can appear in one go and usually give enough [[point]]s for an automatic level up when caught. | |||

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', NPC crabs appear in [[Oho Oasis]], where they can be [[jump]]ed on or [[hammer]]ed to bury them halfway into the sand, but they get back up if [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] leave and reenter any of the sections they are located in. [[Hermie III]] is also a crab who appears as a boss in this game. | |||

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', '''hermit crabs''' appear as the main focus of the [[Mole Hunt]] game, where they must be dug up using the [[Mole Mario]] technique. | |||

Two of them first appear in a sandy portion in [[Super Bell Hill]]. They are stationary in the beginning, but they start running in a certain direction when approached until they jump into the sand. | ||

Small crabs appear as wildlife in certain kingdoms in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', specifically the [[Lake Kingdom]], the [[Seaside Kingdom]], and the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]]. In the Lake and Mushroom Kingdoms, they are magenta, and in the Seaside Kingdom, they are yellow. Similarly to most ground-based wildlife in the game, they will flee if Mario approaches them, and following them for an extended period of time causes them to burrow into the sand, often leaving behind a [[coin]]. | |||
