Shellos

Shellos (Japanese: カラナクシ, HepburnKaranakushi) (SHELL-oss[1]) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. Its colors differ if it was born on the east or west of Mt. Coronet in Sinnoh.

Biology

Physiology

Shellos has a sea slug-like body shape, with a yellow stripe separating its mantle (upper section) from its underbelly. It has oval-shaped black eyes with yellow rings around them, a very small nose, and a large pair of yellow lips. It comes in two distinct forms based on the location it is found in. The West Sea Shellos is pink with rounded spikes on its back and a white underbelly. The six protrusions with dark pink tips on the top of its head form what appears to be its gills. The East Sea Shellos is turquoise with a soft green underbelly. It has two white-tipped rhinophores (sensory tentacles) on its head and a pair of turquoise and yellow fins on its back.

It should be noted that Shellos used to have a shell on its back a long time ago. It is also closely related to some species such as Shellder.

Behavior

Shellos's appearance varies based on its diet and habitat. It is known to sweat a greasy purple fluid when stressed.

Natural abilities

This fluid is extremely sticky, similar to the defensive purple ink of real-life sea hares.

Evolution

Shellos evolves into Gastrodon once it reaches level 30.

    Trivia

    Origin

    Shellos is based on a sea slug, specifically the Loch's chromodoris sea slugs.

    Etymology

    Shellos comes from "shell", "loss", and -los (German for 'less'). Using the first and third origins, its name could literally mean "shell less", as Shellos lacks a shell.
