    What's your favorite Bug type? Mine's gotta be Scizor. I mean, c'mon!
    Also, screw it, if this video gets 15k likes I'll release the full version of "No Joy"

    The weird thing about shuckle isn't that it's a bug type, It's that it's got a higher base stat total than scizor.

    Just as a tip for anyone who wants to do this run in the future, you can get the psychic tm using surf right after undella town and the fire blast tm from the pokemon center in lacunosa town, so you can at least get volcarona some good moves before Drayden since it's level up learnset is pretty dookie

    RE Shuckle according to ye olde Bulbapedia:
    Shuckle seems to be based on an endolith, an organism that lives inside porous rocks or animal shells. Given its category, the Mold Pokémon, Shuckle may be based on a fungus or mold variety of endolith. Its category could also allude to fungi such as cedar-apple rust, which bears a strong resemblance to Shuckle, or fungi-like slime molds.
    Given its Bug typing, Shuckle may also draw inspiration from scale insects-small, shelled parasites that produce a sweet fluid called honeydew that attracts other insects. In particular, it may be based on the barnacle scale, with characteristics of actual barnacles. This species is part of the Coccidae family, also known as "tortoise scales", which may explain Shuckle's resemblance to a turtle or a tortoise. It could also be seen as a reference to the food fermentation process, with its Rock type alluding to the pottery used to store and ferment aliments in some cultures, and its Pokémon category referring to some fungi used in cultured foods.
    Shuckle may also have been based on certain varieties of mollusk, as it shares some characteristics with them, including the shell, the muscular but limp-seeming feet, the use of acids to receive food or to break down obstacles, the liking for fermented foods, and living close to the water. Its worm-like aspect may also take inspiration from a nematode.
