Where to find Krabby

Krabby is not a wild encounter on any of the standard maps.

Krabby can hatch from a Common Egg. Now and then an encounter on a map turns up an egg instead of a wild Pokémon, and which eggs a map can drop depends on its types. The Common Egg can drop on Black Forest, 0* Temperature, Jungle, Leaf Town, Reborn Surface, and Legend of Dawn. Put the egg in an incubator to hatch it. See crafting and incubation.
