The Scurvy Crew is made up of three crabs, lead by cap'n greenbeard in the Beach world of the game.The trio of crabs have one sharp object on there claws,the yellow one having a fork,the blue having a sword and cap,n greenbeard having a sharp hook.
Attacks
For the first phase, the crew attacks individually. Their only attack is moving from side to side. Occasionally, they will put their claws in the air to prevent being jumped on. As a group, the crabs will form a tower and move from side to side as well. The leader will put his claws up occasionally to prevent Donkey and Diddy Kong from stomping on them. During their third and fourth phase, their attacks are the same, but they put their claws up more often and they move faster.
Combat
Template:Spoiler To defeat the Scurvy Crew, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong must jump on each crab four times. When the Scurvy Crew are fighting individually, they must be jumped on first. This will make them vulnerable to a Ground Pound, which will flip them over. They should be jumped on again for them to take damage. When fighting as a group, Donkey Kong must roll into the bottom crab while their claws are up. This will knock them over and make them vulnerable to a jump. Template:Endspoiler
Trivia
- There is a possibility that the Scurvy Crew hated the Kongs before they were hypnotized by the Tikis since they attacked the Kongs while on the rocket. However, there also might be a chance that they were hypnotized by the Tikis while attacking the Kongs at that time as well.
- The blue crab of the Scurvy Crew does not appear in Peaceful Pier, but the other two members do.
- In their artwork, the Scurvy Crew are seen wearing pants, but in the actual fight, they aren't wearing pants.
