==Biology==
Clamperl is an aquatic {{wp|bivalve}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that makes its home on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|seafloor}}. Its bivalve shell is dark blue with a silver rim along the inner edges. The shell is used to clamp down on prey, as well as for protection. A fully-grown shell will have nicks and scratches all over. Inside of the shell is a fragile, light blue body composed of six spherical extensions with a pink, pearl-like head in the center, usually depicted with its eyes closed. There is a circular white patch on each cheek.
 
The pearls produced by this Pokémon amplify psychic power and can be blue in color as seen in [[AG093|the anime]]. {{p|Spoink}}'s pearls come from Clamperl. These pearls are also 10 times more valuable than pearls produced by {{p|Shellder}}. It is carnivorous, clamping down on prey without letting go until it stops moving. When it is close to evolution, Clamperl will become too big to fit inside its shell. Clamperl is the only Pokémon that gains extra effects by holding a [[Deep Sea Tooth]] or [[Deep Sea Scale]]. Clamperl have been observed being carried by {{p|Drifblim}}, its natural predator.
 
===Evolution===
Clamperl evolves into either {{p|Huntail}} or {{p|Gorebyss}}.

===Main series===
====Major appearances====
Clamperl debuted in ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'' as a resident of [[Maisie Island]]. {{OBP|Spoink|recurring}} lost its pearl and took a blue pearl that was created by a Clamperl from [[Isaiah]]'s lab, thus causing conflict with the Bivalve Pokémon. {{TRT}} also wanted to get their hands on the blue pearl.
 
In ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War!]]'', [[Nancy]] and {{OBP|Keith|AG095}} each had a Clamperl. It was revealed that {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who live on the [[A-B-C Islands]] have rivalries over which of Clamperl's evolved forms was stronger. Both Nancy and Keith's Clamperl evolved during the episode, with Nancy's becoming a {{p|Gorebyss}} and Keith's evolving into {{p|Huntail}}.

===Pokémon Adventures===
In ''[[PS251|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIII]]'', Clamperl was a member of [[Wallace]]'s [[Party|team]] that he used during his ascent to {{pkmn|Champion}}. Little is known about it, not even its gender or [[nickname]].
 
Similar to his apprentice, [[Juan]] owns a Clamperl, as shown on the cover of a volume of the {{MangaArc|Ruby & Sapphire}}.
 
==In the TCG==
{{main|Clamperl (TCG)}}
 
==Trivia==
* Clamperl shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}. They are all known as the Bivalve Pokémon.
* Clamperl is the only Pokémon that evolves by trade holding one of two different items.
* Clamperl can learn {{m|Iron Defense}} from a Move Tutor, but its evolutions, {{p|Huntail}} and {{p|Gorebyss}}, can't.
* Clamperl is one of two Pokémon to have two different species-specific Stat-enhancing items associated with it, the other being {{P|Ditto}}.
 
===Origin===
Clamperl is possibly based on an {{wp|oyster}} or a {{wp|giant clam}}. Clamperl's appearance and its evolved forms suggest that it could also be based on {{wp|roe}}, the eggs of {{wp|fish}} and other marine animals.
 
====Name origin====
Clamperl may be a combination of ''clamp'' or ''{{wp|clam}}'' and ''{{wp|pearl}}''.
 
Pearlulu may be a combination of ''pearl'' and possibly لؤلؤ ''lulu'' ({{wp|Arabic language|Arabic}} for pearls).
