Shellos (カラナクシ) is the 60th Pokémon in the Sinnoh Pokédex. It is a Water-Type, and is known as the Sea Slug Pokémon.

Shellos can use one of two Abilities: Sticky Hold, which prevents its hold item from being stolen, knocked away or switched, or Storm Drain, which in Double and Triple Battles, draws all Water-Type Moves to the Pokémon with the ability instead of who it was targeted at, absorbing the move and increasing its Special Attack by one stage. A third Ability is available to Shellos from the Dream World, the Sand Force Ability. This Ability increases the power of its Ground, Rock, and Steel Type moves in a Sandstorm by 33%.

Shellos gain the opportunity to evolve into Gastrodon starting at Level 30.

Shellos is in the Egg Groups Water 1 and Amorphous, and its Egg takes approximately 5,120 Steps to hatch. It takes Shellos One Million Experience Points to reach Level 100.
