Series lore and name
Crabids have a red carapace, yellow on the underside, arms, and legs. They have large eyes and even larger, gaping mouths lined with pointed teeth. A trail of drool can be seen on their lower jaw, seemingly suggesting that they carry the disease rabies, which would make sense in comparission to their name.

Using Crabid
Crabid sits in the Aquatic family.
In DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: The Withered World you do not fight beside your monsters — you build the party and command it. Up to four monsters are active with four more in reserve, and synthesis is the main way to raise a keeper: combine two monsters from level 10 and the child inherits the parents' talents, with a Plus Value that can lift it past their rank.
