Pokedex Entries
Game | Entry |
---|---|
Ruby | CLAMPERL’s sturdy shell is not only good for protection - it is also used for clamping and catching prey. A fully grown CLAMPERL’s shell will be scored with nicks and scratches all over. |
Sapphire | CLAMPERL grows while being protected by its rock-hard shell. When its body becomes too large to fit inside the shell, it is sure evidence that this POKéMON is getting close to evolution. |
Emerald | A CLAMPERL slams its shell closed on prey to prevent escape. The pearl it creates upon evolution is said to be infused with a mysterious energy. |
X | When it evolves, it makes a mysterious pearl that amplifies psychic powers when it’s held. |
Y | It is protected by a sturdy shell. Once in a lifetime, it makes a magnificent pearl. |
OmegaRuby | Clamperl’s sturdy shell is not only good for protection—it is also used for clamping and catching prey. A fully grown Clamperl’s shell will be scored with nicks and scratches all over. |
AlphaSapphire | Clamperl grows while being protected by its rock-hard shell. When its body becomes too large to fit inside the shell, it is sure evidence that this Pokémon is getting close to evolution. |
UltraSun | Despite its appearance, it’s carnivorous. It clamps down on its prey with both sides of its shell and doesn’t let go until they stop moving. |
UltraMoon | Clamperl’s pearls are exceedingly precious. They can be more than 10 times as costly as Shellder’s pearls. |
