    I always wondered why Cloyster isn’t normally a Rock Type.

    Interestingly, the Poke-BODY here was mistranslated. The original Japanese text was for “Hard Shell” rather than “Solid Shell” so despite co-existing with cards like PK Anorith, they had bodies with the same name but different effects.

      even if it *was* translated as “Hard Shell” that wouldn’t match with N3 Shuckle, though Poke-BODIES/POWERS are not the same as Pokémon Powers. (and the Japanese name for that power is “Stiff Collar, apparently).
