Evolution
Trivia
- There was initially some misinformation on some Pokémon websites, claiming that Shellos was the pre-evolved form of Lapras.
- When Serebii.net revealed Shellos's English name, the site originally interpreted its name as "Snelios" or "Shelios" due to poor image quality.
- According to an interview in Nintendo Power, Shellos and Gastrodon were originally designed for Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, but were not implemented in the final design.
- Both Shellos and Gastrodon also have a third form in the data, however, no Shellos or Gastrodon can be captured with this form.
- No in-game trainer uses the East species in battle, even if the trainer's current location is east of Mt. Coronet, where only the blue species could be caught.
- In DP055, Professor Oak's lecture is about Shellos. He writes this Pokémon senryū about it: カラナクシ にしとひがしで いろちがい Karanakushi, nishi to higashi de, iro chigai "Karanakushi, the Western and the Eastern are, alternate colored"
Origin
Shellos is based on sea slugs.
Name Origin
Its English name appears to be a pun on Shell and the suffix -less, as Shellos does not have a shell. The Japanese name Karanakushi literally translates to "a snail without a shell." Its German name, Schalellos, comes from schalenlos. Its French name, Sancoki, comes from sans coquille.
