Its black pearl-like body is known to be soft and tender; however, its shell is said to be harder than diamond. Shellder has two former [[signature move]]s. It can shoot spears of ice by using {{m|Icicle Spear}}, or clamp tightly to its opponents using {{m|Clamp}}. Despite its hard shell, clamping on to an opponent will reveal its vulnerable parts. Because of this, it will only clamp itself to a foe as a last resort. It swims around its {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|sea floor}} home by rapidly opening and closing its shell while facing backward. | Its black pearl-like body is known to be soft and tender; however, its shell is said to be harder than diamond.

Shellder has been in existence since prehistoric times. Pokédex data for {{p|Omastar}} states that Shellder was the prey of this Pokémon, which would crack open a Shellder's shell with its beak and suck out its insides. | |||
