Gold
It can hardly lift its massive, overgrown pincer. The pincer's size makes it difficult to aim properly.
Silver
Its pincers grow peculiarly large. If it lifts the pincers too fast, it loses its bal ance and staggers.
Crystal
Its oversized claw is very powerful, but when it's not in battle, the claw just gets in the way.
