==History==
===Omniverse===
*Crabdozer first appeared in The More Things Change: Part 1, where she overpowered Spidermonkey until Khyber recalled her before she could finish him off.
*In Of Predators and Prey: Part 1, Crabdozer attacked Ben at the mall and switched into Buglizard after being trapped by Stinkfly. Later, Crabdozer defended Khyber from Heatblast before switching into Terroranchula once Heatblast switched into Ball Weevil.
*In Of Predators and Prey: Part 2, Crabdozer defeated Heatblast and was defeated by Armodrillo, prompting her to switch into Slamworm.
*In Outbreak, Crabdozer appeared because of a malfunction with the Nemetrix and rammed into Khyber before he managed to subdue it. Later, Crabdozer reverted when Dr. Psychobos repaired and perfected the Nemetrix.
*In Malefactor, Crabdozer battled Heatblast and was defeated by Armodrillo, prompting her to switch into Slamworm.
*In A Fistful of Brains, one of the Panuncian's clones used its Nemetrix to transform into Crabdozer off-screen and appeared as a steed for Khyber.
*In For a Few Brains More, Crabdozer was eaten by Perk Upchuck, so he switched into Ultimate Panuncian.
*In Stuck on You, Skurd gave Khyber a Crabdozer helmet and claw to battle Heatblast.
