Shellder is a black pearl-like Pokémon encased within a spiky, blue-violet bivalve shell. It has two round white eyes with tiny black pupils. It has an enormously long red tongue, which it uses to burrow itself into sand and to lure and capture prey. Its body is known to be soft and tender; however, its shell is said to be harder than diamond. Prehistoric Shellder were apparently preyed upon by {{p|Omastar}}. Once ensnared by Omastar's tentacles, its hard shell stood no match to the Spiral Pokémon's deadly powerful {{m|bite}}, and its soft insides quickly devoured.

Shellder can develop a symbiotic relationship with {{p|Slowpoke}}. After attaching itself to the Dopey Pokémon's tail, the two undergo a metamorphosis and together evolve into {{p|Slowbro}}. If it attaches to the head of a Slowpoke in possession of a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}, the two will instead evolve into {{p|Slowking}}. These relationships allow it to travel onto land and obtain a new stage in its life cycle.
