That's a pistol shrimp, kiddo
I actually think the ones of these that have the harpoon claws are cooler aesthetically tbqh

Portia Spider
A spider that hunts other spiders, it is very sneaky and uses its think stick-like legs to walk on any surfaces, including webs, without making a single disturbance.

Fuck I can't remember the names

Another person with my Mantis shrimp dream.
The stats and typing fit the animal perfectly.
>High speed
Claws have the acceleration of a .22 caliber bullet. Perfect
>High attack
Have to be kept in bulletproof tanks and causes the water around the claws to boil. Also perfect
>High Defense
Claws can withstand thousands of these blows before molting. The military is trying to make body armor based on it. Also perfect.

I dont know a specific one but as far as the differentiation between mantis shrimps, OP's is a "smasher" and the ones with launching harpoon claws are "spearers"
>>26412759
But they aren't nearly as badass and will lack the high defense
>>26412846
>They aren't nearly as badass
I think they're more badass "looking" in motion which was my point but the actual science stuff behind the punching ones is technically more badass
>>26412839
None of them can match the badassery of the peacock mantis shrimp.
>>26412886
Peacock is a smasher dumbo
>>26412893
That was my point.
>>26412824
You and I are one
>>26412824
To be honest, I probably wouldn't give it high speed. I'd just let if have low-to-average speed and let it specialize in priority moves
>>26412736
fucking yes please
>>26412824
I would say speed should be low to average, it should instead have bunch of priority moves, and an ability to further enhance them.
>>26412989
Strong claws

>>26412959
Here, I was trying to think of an ability besides Technician since the stat set I had in mind already basically Scizor, but Tough Claws is perfect and fits flavor better, you are a genius
>>26412824
Give it low speed, Huge Power or Technician, and access to a bunch of priority moves.
