Pokédex entries
Shellos
Diamond | Its colors and shapes differ from region to region. In the Sinnoh region, two types are confirmed. |
---|---|
Pearl | It lives along bodies of water. Its body shape has changed to suit its habitat. |
Platinum | Beware of pushing strongly on its squishy body, as it makes a mysterious purple fluid ooze out. |
HeartGold SoulSilver | Its shape and coloration vary, depending on its habitat. |
Black White Black 2 White 2 | Beware of pushing strongly on its squishy body, as it makes a mysterious purple fluid ooze out. |
X Omega Ruby | Beware of pushing strongly on its squishy body, as it makes a mysterious purple fluid ooze out. |

East Sea Form
Sun | Shellos lives in the sea and feasts on plankton. The lovelier the ocean where Shellos resides, the more vibrant its color becomes. |
---|---|
Moon | The difference in color from one Shellos to another seems to be a result of their diet. No large changes can be seen in their capabilities. |
Ultra Sun | When it senses danger, it gushes a purple liquid. Some theories suggest this liquid is a greasy sweat induced by stress. |
Ultra Moon | Scientists interested in its great regenerative capabilities are currently analyzing the materials from which its cells are made. |
Sword | There’s speculation that its appearance is determined by what it eats, but the truth remains elusive. |
Shield | Its appearance changes depending on the environment. One theory suggests that living in cold seas causes Shellos to take on this form. |
West Sea Form
Sun | For the most part, it makes its home along the seashore. Its color and form differ according to its habitat and the quality of its food. |
---|---|
Moon | Purple mucus sticks to the hands of anyone who touches it. Take care, as the substance is troublesome to wash off. |
Ultra Sun | While they normally live in the sea, they can function on land, too, until their skin dries out. |
Ultra Moon | When it senses danger, a purple liquid oozes out of it. The liquid is thought to be something like greasy sweat. |
Sword | This Pokémon’s habitat shapes its physique. According to some theories, life in warm ocean waters causes this variation to develop. |
Shield | Subjecting this Pokémon to a strong force causes it to secrete a strange purple fluid. Though harmless, the fluid is awfully sticky. |
