Shellder

#0090

At night, it burrows a hole in the seafloor with its broad tongue to make a place to sleep. While asleep, it closes its shell, but leaves its tongue hanging out.

Clamping on to an opponent reveals its vulnerable parts, so it uses this move only as a last resort.

Even when its shell is closed, its tongue still hangs out. If you give its tongue a good yank, the shock will cause Shellder to open its shell.

Grains of sand trapped in its shells mix with its body fluids to form beautiful pearls.

It is encased in a shell that is harder than diamond. Inside, however, it is surprisingly tender.
