Strategy Overview
Believe it or not, Shellos is a lot better than it appears to be. It's got a decent Special Attack stat, bulk, and only two weaknesses. It doesn't have much of a movepool, but it has enough for it to pull through. One of its most obvious flaws is that it is outclassed by almost all other Water-types, and it doesn't get access to Hydro Pump. Its resistance to Water-type attacks shouldn't be underlooked either. Overall, this cute little slug can come in handy as a revenge killer due to its nice coverage and few weaknesses.
