Krabby 51/62 Pokémon Fossil Raw

Krabby (51/62) from the Fossil expansion set is a classic Water-type Basic Pokémon card that brings nostalgic charm and strategic utility to any Pokémon TCG collection. First released in October 1999 as part of the third expansion in the TCG’s history, this card captures Krabby in its feisty, pincer-raised stance, illustrated by renowned artist Mitsuhiro Arita. With 50 HP and a straightforward design, it serves as an accessible early-game Pokémon, perfect for trainers who appreciate vintage cards with a simple yet effective role on the battlefield. As a common rarity card, Krabby remains widely available, making it an excellent choice for new collectors and players building retro-themed decks.

The card features two distinct attacks: Call for Family, which lets you search your deck for another Krabby to place on your bench, and Irongrip, a basic attack that deals 20 damage at the cost of one Water and one Colorless energy. While not a powerhouse, its ability to reinforce your bench gives it subtle tactical value. Krabby evolves into Kingler, making it a foundational piece for evolving strategies in pre-Advanced Format gameplay. Available in both 1st Edition and Unlimited printings, the Fossil set is notable for introducing prehistoric Pokémon like Kabutops and Aerodactyl, and Krabby holds its own as a fan-favorite from this iconic release.
