Carapaceons (Japanese: 甲殻種 Kōkakushu) are crustacean-like or scorpion-like monsters that were introduced in the Second Generation, having hard shells, exoskeletons, or crab-like bodies, which mostly require weapons with at least green sharpness to break. Due to their appearence, they bear a passing resemblance to the other arthropod-like monsters, the arachnoid-like Temnocerans and insect-like Neopterons, although they are fundamentally different. When they're weakened by physical damage, Carapaceons usually show internal bleeding by the frothing of the purple bubbles from their mouths. Most of these crustaceans resemble crabs, lobsters or scorpions.
