Shellcracker
From Sonic Retro
Shellcracker (called Kanipunch in the Japanese manual and Shellcraker in Sonic Jam), found in Metropolis Zone, is a crab with a giant claw. When you approach from the side it will suddenly extend its claw and try to punch you. They can often be found in corridors with low ceilings, making them a real pain in the backside to get past. Hit the vulnerable side, which is the side that doesn't have the claw facing you.
