Pokedex: Shieldon

Maximum Defense? Check.
High Special Defense? Check.
Everything else average save for a low Speed? Eh, why not? Check.

The defensive opposite to the offense-laden Cranidos, this is one tough little dino-dude, being a Rock/Steel type. Seriously, it's tough...unless you're a Fighting-type

Much of its Move set centers around its durability and using it to every conceivable advantage, with actually but a handful of offensive Moves (four to be exact!) It has the flinch-causing Iron Head as its final attack, but in Generation 5 gains access to a new move, Heavy Bomber, which gives it bonuses due to its weight. Originally its sole Ability was Sturdy, making it immune to one-hit K.O.s, though it has gained Sound-proof as a Hidden Ability, which might be more useful in the long run.
