Accelgor (Japanese: アギルダー Agilder) is a Bug-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Shelmet when traded for a Karrablast, which evolves into Escavalier simultaneously. Neither evolves if at least one holds an Everstone during the trade.
Biology
Accelgor has a large pink head reminiscent of a helmet that is curled in the back. Green stripes run from its eyes to the top of its head, and there is a black star-like marking or hole on the front. Its eyes are hidden in a shadowed crevice in its head. The rest of its body is covered by a dull blue, cloth-like membrane, which keeps Accelgor from dehydrating, with ribbon-like extensions at the top of its back. Its arms, when crossed, portray an aggressive mood. It is a very fast Pokémon; it can attack using ways similar to ninjas. It lives in moist habitats like bogs and swamps.
In the anime
Major appearances
Accelgor debuted in The Mighty Accelguard to the Rescue! under the ownership of Charles.
Bianca's Shelmet evolved into an Accelgor in Evolution Exchange Excitement!, after being traded with Professor Juniper for her Karrablast.
Minor appearances
An Accelgor appeared in XY108 under the ownership of Shurin, where it was used during the Frey City Pokémon Showcase. It reappeared in XY111, where it was used in the Master Class Pokémon Showcase in Glorio City.

Trivia
- As the armor it sported as a Shelmet has been stolen by a Karrablast, Accelgor's Defense and Special Defense stats are lower than those of its pre-evolved form, but has a higher Speed.
- Accelgor is the fastest Generation V Pokémon.
Origin
Accelgor appears to be based on an auto racer or a ninja, combined with a giant tube worm. Its cloth-like "clothing" and Bug type suggest it may also be based on the bagworm pupa.
Name origin
Accelgor may be a combination of accelerate and escargot (French for snail).
Agilder may be a combination of agile and rider.
