Shelmet (Japanese: チョボマキ Chobomaki) is a Bug-type Pokémon.
It evolves into Accelgor when traded for a Karrablast, which evolves into Escavalier simultaneously. Neither evolves if at least one holds an Everstone during the trade.
Biology
Physiology
Shelmet is a bivalve or snail-like Pokémon, with a gray shell much like that of a knight’s visor although it has a more conventionally snail-like swirl of its shell further back. Shelmet’s shell has protrusions on the underside, which it apparently uses as legs. Its inner body is pink with a long, puckered mouth, and green markings below its eyes.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
It closes the lid on its helmet-like shell as a defensive tactic, and can spit a poisonous sticky fluid. For some reason, Shelmet evolve when put near an electric line with Karrablast.
Behavior
Habitat
It appears to prefer moist habitats like bogs and swamps.

Trivia
- Shelmet and Karrablast are the only Pokémon that have to be traded with a specific Pokémon to evolve, having to be traded with each other.
- Although Escavalier gains a secondary Steel typing from its armor, Shelmet is a pure Bug-type despite wearing the same armor.
Origin
Shelmet appears to be based on a combination of a giant tube worm, nautilus, or snail, and plate armor. The fact that it evolves when traded with Karrablast may be a reference to jousting.
Name origin
Shelmet may be a combination of shell and helmet.
Chobomaki may be a combination of おちょぼ口 ochoboguchi (puckered-up mouth) and 巻き maki (to coil or roll).
