Lore

Version-specific Pokédex entries for this Pokémon.
Pokémon Sword box art

Sword

When attacked, it tightly shuts the lid of its shell. This reaction fails to protect it from Karrablast, however, because they can still get into the shell.

Pokémon Shield box art

Shield

It has a strange physiology that responds to electricity. When together with Karrablast, Shelmet evolves for some reason.
