In-game description
The emperor crab was named for its regal appearance: the ridges of its shell and its raised claws eerily resembling a crown. One that would pinch your eyes out if you tried to wear it.

How to Obtain
Wild Capture
Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in Dread Wastes, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Emperor Crab: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Emperor Crab to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.
| Ability | Slot | Unlock level |
|---|---|---|
| Snap | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Surge | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Renewing Mists | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Healing Wave | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Shell Shield | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Whirlpool | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Snap (level 1) with Surge (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Renewing Mists (level 2) with Healing Wave (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Shell Shield (level 4) with Whirlpool (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.
