Snippet and Pinshushin, these fakemon crab live on the coast line near the only volcano(dormant for now) in the Vinter region, they stay in groups and forage on the edge of the shore line, if danger comes they quickly retreat into the water. If cornered this Fakemon has no problem using it's claws to fight back. Despite that, this Fakemon is rather easy to befriend once you get past its skittish nature, it's a good strong. friendly companion for those who are willing to put in the effort for friendship.



Bu that being said, It's said Snippet and Pinshushin meat is said to taste differently depending on the nature of one's 'heart', so 'good' people it will be a rather sweat tasting meat while for 'bad' people it tastes like nothing. Though some believe this is more due to the skills of the Chef then their actually being a magical reason for it. But that doesn't stop the local people from considering it a delicacy, so when new arrivals to the Vinter region discovered it and are familiar with a certain romantic holiday decided to exploit this fakemon both for trade and meat. Now this Fakemon number's are starting to dwindle from the region which is very concerning for researchers and locals.



Also I like to imagine these guy's also tend to 'hop' about and flutter their 'wing's when they do and some how they managing to float/hover in the air for a bit.
