Crabs-Y is the boss of the Noah's Park (Intro Stage) in Mega Man X8

Boss Guide
The final battle against the crab will see you face off in a classic 2D platform environment. Despite the mechaniloid's size you'll have plenty of room to move around, the situation only becomes tricky if it corners you against a wall. The crab will initally begin on the far right of the room after blowing out a makeshift door in the background. It'll begin slowly walking forward with a single claw open to defend itself. Try shooting the claw and it'll deflect your shots easily. Upon trapping you against the left wall your character will be on the receiving end of a quick series of stabs from the crab's claws, so ascending the wall as it closes in will ensure evasion. After delivering a few stabs, the crab will jump backwards before raising its defense claw and walking forward again. If you manage to leap over the crab while it attacks up against the wall, it'll simply spin around and continue walking forward to repeat its defense-attack cycle. By using barrier-breaking attacks to stun the crab and make it vulnerable, you'll have a great chance to use the Double Attack (shoot the crab's body and it'll drop attack gauge refills) to finish it off. You'll know you've dealt the final blow if the swarming matrix in the background appears orange rather than green.
