>>39390711Not the guy you’re replying to, and I agree it’s a concept that’s poorly executed, but the reason it has paw pads is to go along with the abominable snowman gimmick. I mean, it doesn’t explain why a crab has those markings, but then again, there are other Pokémon out there who have similar odd design choices based purely on theme.
There’s a lot about Crabominable to complain about, but the paw pads certainly aren’t the highest priority.
