'''Hermite Crabs''' are crab enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' around [[Wakeport]]. Despite their name, Hermite Crabs are not hermit crabs, and are simply regular crabs that use coconuts as both shelters and weapons. In the field, Hermite Crabs hide under their coconuts, occasionally peeping their eyes out, and pick up their coconut and chase [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] if they get near. | '''Hermite Crabs''' are red crab enemies that appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' around [[Wakeport]].

In battle, Hermite Crabs, like on the field, hide under their coconuts during the bros.' attack turns. They will move from coconut to coconut every few seconds to confuse the bros., as more often than not, there will be more coconuts than Hermite Crabs. Mario and Luigi must attack the coconut once in order to remove it from battle and be able to attack the Hermite Crab that may be underneath. If the Hermite Crab's attack turn arrives while it is still under its coconut, it will likely attack. If not, the Hermite Crab will leave for a moment to throw more coconuts into the battle, some covering its friends, if any. | In battle, Hermite Crabs, like on the field, hide under their coconuts during the bros.' attack turns.
