Pokédex descriptions
Ultra Moon
In the moment that it gulps down its prey, the inside of its shell is exposed, but to this day, no one has ever seen that sight.
Ultra Sun
When something approaches it, it fires off fragments of its steel shell in attack. This is not a conscious action but a conditioned reflex.
Alpha Sapphire
Forretress conceals itself inside its hardened steel shell. The shell is opened when the Pokémon is catching prey, but it does so at such a quick pace that the shell’s inside cannot be seen.
