The Smashin' crab is an Aquatic monster in the Dragon Quest series. It appears exclusively in Dragon Quest VII.
Characteristics[edit]
Smashin' crabs are creepy anthropomorphic crustacean cretin monsters with six limbs, one of which is a large snappy claw, perfect for snapping at foes whenever they feel threatened. Their main body is a deep dark fiery orange, with a light soft orange underbelly, beady black eye stalks, and an odd boisterous blue face in the center. They walk about wearing lime green boots on their four feet, scuttling across the battle field to strike, with one tiny limp lime green glove on their left hand.
