 * Shelmet and {{p|Karrablast}} are the only Pokémon that have to be traded with a specific Pokémon to evolve, having to be traded with each other.
 * Although {{p|Escavalier}} gains a secondary {{t|Steel}} type from its armor, Shelmet is a pure {{type|Bug}} despite wearing the same armor.
+* Shelmet shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{rf|Hisuian}} {{p|Sliggoo}}. They are both known as the Snail Pokémon.
 ===Origin===
-Shelmet appears to be based on a combination of a {{wp|snail}}, possibly a {{wp|scaly-foot snail}}, whose shell's outer layer is made of iron compounds; and a {{wp|close helmet}}. This could be a reference to Medieval satirical drawings of snails, which are ironically depicted as giant monsters that knights fought against. It also may also be based on a {{wp|nautilus}}.

-Due to its bivalve-like shell and long siphon, it may also draw inspiration from {{wp|geoduck}}s.
+Karrablast and Shelmet's relationship may be a reference to {{wp|coevolution}}, where the evolution of one species is influenced by changes in another species; in this case, the relationship between predator and prey.
