Official rulings

Four official rulings apply to Sharktocrab, newest first.

  • An ability that triggers when counters are put on a permanent will trigger if that permanent somehow enters the battlefield with those counters.
  • If a creature somehow loses all of its +1/+1 counters, it can adapt again and get more +1/+1 counters.
  • Sharktocrab's triggered ability can target a creature that's already tapped. That creature won't untap during its controller's next untap step.
  • You can always activate an ability that will cause a creature to adapt. As that ability resolves, if the creature has a +1/+1 counter on it for any reason, you simply won't put any +1/+1 counters on it.
