The type combination and abilities wouldn't be so bad if it had the stats to back it up.

If it had Weavile-like stats, Ice and Fighting would have been a fantastic offensive STAB mix to have.

Doesn't help the design, though.

Horrible stats
Can't get until the very end of the game
Not enough bulk, recovery or coverage to justify its shit speed and awful typing

it would be good if the typing didn't have so many weaknesses

if it had mach punch
if it even had drain punch it would help a lot

I get what they were going for by putting all its stats into Attack but it's not even that great of a wallbreaker. It needs like Kyurem-B tier Attack or Sheer Force.

the single application I can find for it is in trick room, doubles, where you can hit it with frost breath and then ohko everything

so a pretty inflexible gimmick

also why do all crab pokemon have monster attacking stats

Should buff Iron Fist.

Give this thing Mach, Ice, Drain, Bullet, and Focus Punch plus Ice Shard.

+10 in both defenses

Now it's usable.

well okay not strictly crabs, but we also have crawdaunt,(lobster), clawitzer (shrimp) and if you want to go full crustacean there's golisopod (an... isopod)

they all have attacking stats at ~120+ which is a weird commonality for animals that maybe might be able to pinch your toes

crabrawler was an unexpected bro. I avoided all the leaks, all the revealed pokemon etc for my first run. I knew crabrawler evolved because of the extra thing on the pokedex but didnt know how. It was level 53 and leveled up to 54 on that fucking mountain...

I boxed it when i got to the top

Crabrawler needs a second evo as a bulky pure Fighting type that's a champion boxer, can take a punch and deal it right back.

What? Are you high? Ice/Fighting is amazing. Or it would be, if you were fast. Crabominable is a prime example of a good offensive type being wasted on a mon with neither the stats nor the movepool to abuse it.

If it had, say 70 base speed and your choice of either Mach Punch or Ice Shard, it would have a niche in OU.

It should have gotten Contrary and not Lunartis who's outclassed by every grass type introuduced in the same gen, as well as being outclassed by previous grass types.

Close Combat+Ice Hammer could have turned it into a Wallbreaking Tank Sweeper and it'd have an awesome niche.
