Even when its shell is closed, its tongue still hangs out. If you give its tongue a good yank, the shock will cause Shellder to open its shell.
The sand that accumulates inside its shell eventually becomes a pearl. But the pearl gets in the way, so it spits it out and discards it.
This Pokémon’s tongue is always hanging out. It uses its tongue with great dexterity to dig up sand from the seabed in its search for food.
The hardness of its shell surpasses the hardness of a diamond. In days gone by, people used the shells to make shields.
It swims backward by opening and closing its two shells. Its large tongue is always kept hanging out.
It is encased in a shell that is harder than diamond. Inside, however, it is surprisingly tender.
