Shield
Once it slams its shell shut, it is impossible to open, even by those with superior strength.
Sword
Its shell is extremely hard. It cannot be shattered, even with a bomb. The shell opens only when it is attacking.
Lets Go Eevee
For protection, it uses its harder-than-diamond shell. It also shoots spikes from the shell.
