Slowbro Pokédex Entries
- Red, Blue:The SHELLDER that is latched onto SLOWPOKE’s tail is said to feed on the host’s left over scraps.
- Yellow:Lives lazily by the sea. If the SHELLDER on its tail comes off, it becomes a SLOWPOKE again.
- Gold:If the tail-biting SHELLDER is thrown off in a harsh battle, it reverts to being an ordinary SLOWPOKE.
- Silver:Naturally dull to begin with, it lost its ability to feel pain due to SHELLDER’s seeping poison.
- Crystal:An attached SHELLDER won’t let go because of the tasty flavor that oozes out of its tail.
- Ruby, Sapphire:SLOWBRO’s tail has a SHELLDER firmly attached with a bite. As a result, the tail can’t be used for fishing anymore. This causes SLOWBRO to grudgingly swim and catch prey instead.
- FireRed:When a SLOWPOKE went hunting in the sea, its tail was bitten by a SHELLDER. That made it evolve into SLOWBRO.
- LeafGreen:The SHELLDER that latches onto SLOWPOKE’s tail is said to feed on the host’s leftover scraps.
- Emerald:Its tail has a SHELLDER firmly attached with a bite. As a result, the tail can’t be used for fishing anymore. This forces it to reluctantly swim and catch prey.
- Diamond, Pearl, Platinum:Though usually dim witted, it seems to become inspired if the SHELLDER on its tail bites down.
- HeartGold:If the tail-biting SHELLDER is thrown off in a harsh battle, it reverts to being an ordinary SLOWPOKE.
- SoulSilver:Naturally dull to begin with, it lost its ability to feel pain due to SHELLDER’s seeping poison.
- Black, White, Black 2, White 2:Though usually dim witted, it seems to become inspired if the Shellder on its tail bites down.
- X:An attached Shellder won’t let go because of the tasty flavor that oozes out of its tail.
- Y:When a Slowpoke went hunting in the sea, its tail was bitten by a Shellder. That made it evolve into Slowbro.
- Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire:Slowbro’s tail has a Shellder firmly attached with a bite. As a result, the tail can’t be used for fishing anymore. This causes Slowbro to grudgingly swim and catch prey instead.
- Sun:It spaces out while gazing at the sea. With Shellder’s poison flowing through its body, it becomes even spacier.
- Moon:Whenever Shellder bites down hard on its tail, it gives Slowbro a flash of inspiration...which it forgets a moment later.
- Ultra Sun:Spacing out is basically all it does. It turns back into Slowpoke if its tail, along with Shellder, breaks off.
- Ultra Moon:Shellder, in its greed to suck out more and more sweetness from Slowbro’s tail, has metamorphosed into a spiral-shaped shell.
- Let's Go Pikachu, Let's Go Eevee:Lives lazily by the sea. If the Shellder on its tail comes off, it becomes a Slowpoke again.
- Sword:Slowpoke became Slowbro when a Shellder bit on to its tail. Sweet flavors seeping from the tail make the Shellder feel as if its life is a dream.
- Shield:Being bitten by a Shellder shocked this Pokémon into standing on two legs. If the Shellder lets go, it seems Slowbro will turn back into a Slowpoke.
- Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl:Though usually dim-witted, it seems to become inspired if the Shellder on its tail bites down.
- Scarlet:When a Slowpoke went hunting in the sea, its tail was bitten by a Shellder. That made it evolve into Slowbro.
- Violet:If the tail-biting Shellder is thrown off in a harsh battle, this Pokémon reverts to being an ordinary Slowpoke.
- Sun:All the energy from Mega Evolution poured into the Shellder on its tail, leaving Slowpoke to be swallowed whole.
- Moon:When bathed in the energy of Mega Evolution, Shellder converts into impregnable armor. There is virtually no change in Slowpoke.
- Ultra Sun:Tremendous energy strengthened the power of the Shellder on its tail, but it doesn’t really affect Slowpoke.
- Ultra Moon:Having been swallowed whole by Shellder, Slowbro now has an iron defense. It’s pretty comfortable in there, too.
- Let's Go Pikachu, Let's Go Eevee:Under the influence of Shellder’s digestive fluids, Slowpoke has awakened, gaining a great deal of power, and a little motivation to boot.
- Sword:A Shellder bite set off a chemical reaction with the spices inside Slowbro’s body, causing Slowbro to become a Poison-type Pokémon.
- Shield:If this Pokémon squeezes the tongue of the Shellder biting it, the Shellder will launch a toxic liquid from the tip of its shell.
