CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Shelmet closes the visor of its shell when an enemy approaches and can spray slimy poison in defense. Karrablast sometimes manages to overcome this protection. Another encounter between the species produces an unexplained phenomenon: under electrical stimulation, both evolve simultaneously. The Pokédex thus presents a useful but imperfect shell and a distinctive connection with the Pokémon that covets it.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon X notes that Shelmet and Karrablast both evolve when electricity reaches them together. Pokémon Shield acknowledges that the reason remains unknown. Their interaction is therefore documented as a Pokédex fact without an established biological explanation.
