In the anime episode ''[[EP119|A Sappy Ending]]'', {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Pinsir}} are depicted as rivals over territorial disputes for food sources, being the tree sap from forests.

{{p|Slowbro}}'s Pokédex entry in {{game|Crystal}} mentions that {{p|Shellder}} enjoys the taste of the ooze that comes out of the Slowbro's tail. This is likely why Shellder are attracted to biting {{p|Slowpoke}}; thus initiating the evolution into Slowbro and starting Shellder's parasitic, but symbiotic relationship with the Hermit Crab Pokémon.

In Pokémon Snap this can also be witnessed while exploring the [[River]]. [[Todd Snap]] can use Pokémon food to lure Slowpoke to spots where they will begin fishing for Shellder. The Bivalve Pokémon quickly takes advantage of this, and bites the Slowpoke's delicious tail and forming Slowbro. | ||
