Bit of an involved concept of a hermit crab that have very peculiar life cycle. Historically piracy in the Orbona region peaked about 300 years ago, yet the remnants of those days can still be seen today. Among the golden pirate age one particular crab pokemon found a very unique niche. As they became preferred pirate pets, they took upon the manners and customs of a pirate code. Yet, when the piracy dwindled, our hermit crabs didn't want to leave the safety of a well build ship. Driven by their ingenuity and pirate tradition they started building their own ships, with the second stage collecting the old shipwreck in their chest, and the first stage being the ship's crew. Those ships however needed a captain, so certain crabs took the responsibility onto themselves, adapting their body fit the hull of the ship, as they took the command of the vessel.
