Biology
Escavalier is an insectoid Pokémon with a head sporting the red horsehair crest of a knight’s helmet, with a visor underneath it. Its shoulders have large, round metal ridges, from which its thin black arms extend. The arms are tipped with red-striped protrusions resembling jousting lances. Its face and torso are bare of armor, but its lower body is concealed within a swirled gray shell with a red spike on the underside, which was presumably the shell of a Shelmet . Its tough armor protects its entire body. It flies around at high speed, jabbing foes with its lances. It is brave and will face any challenge even if in trouble.

Name origin
Escavalier may be a combination of escargot (French for snail ) and cavalier (French for mounted soldier ) or chevalier (French for knight ) . It may also refer to Excalibur .
Chevargo is a combination of chevalier and escargot .
