Recommended Moveset
Unranked
- Irukandji - (AoE PER + Stun + Freeze, 45s, 4 CD)
- Catfish Charge - (30 Thunder dmg + AoE 30 Thunder dmg, 30s, 1 CD)
- Palancar Beauty - (PER + Extra Turn, 28s, 3 CD)
- Great Barrior Savior - (Team Sea Hater + Precision, 25s, 3 CD)
This is the best moveset unranked for Crabbydroid. You can run Palancar Beauty to remove pesky effects, then Irukandji to deny, and then you can run some of his support/attack skills.
Ranked 1
- Palancar Beauty - (PER + Self Evasion, 20s, 3 CD)
- Lion's Mane - (Trait Disable + Mega Stun, 30s, 2 CD)
- Portuguese Man O'War - (Mega Freeze + AoE Freeze + Drowned, 45s, 3 CD)
- Irukandji - (AoE PER + AoE Stun + AoE Freeze, 45s, 4 CD)
This moveset is like a budget Thalassa. You can PER + Trait Disable 1 or 2 enemies and then deny with your choice of Irukandji (For a guaranteed deny if the enemy doesn't have any denial block) or Portuguese Man O'War (For a deny on Dodge Area and other things).
Ranked 2
- Irukandji - (AoE PER + AoE Stun + AoE Freeze, 45s, 4 CD)
- Portuguese Man O'War - (Mega Freeze + AoE Freeze + AoE Drowned, 45s, 3 CD)
- Cannonball - (AoE 40 Special dmg + Stun + Nanovirus + Shock, 40s, 2 CD)
- Palancer Beauty / Lion's Mane ( Palancer for PER + Self Evasion, 20s, 3 CD) / (Lion's for Trait Disable + Mega Stun, 20s, 3 CD)
If you want to deny for the entire time of a battle, you can run this moveset. You would be constantly denying the enemy team with somewhat new control effects every time. For optimal use you can run Palancer Beauty / Lion's Mane for a quick removal of something pesky, then Portuguese Man O'War, then Cannonball, then Irukandji, rinse and repeat. This will keep the enemy denied 3 turns if you run it this way.
