Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

A Sheleras's coat allows it to conceal itself almost perfectly in the tall grasses of plains and savannas. They're incredibly fast but tire easily, so rather than chase prey outright they make a series of lightning-fast attacks before disappearing again.

Few Pokémon are faster than a Sheleras running at full speed. They move through the tall grass so quickly and smoothly that by the time you notice the grass rustling, they're already long gone.

Design History

(click thumbnail to enlarge.)

Sheleras 2.0 (2019): Same lightning bolt base, but with a few more spot-like spots in addition to some stripes, and a few extra areas of pattern and color for a little more visual interest.

Sheleras 1.0 (c. 2010): The 'lightning bolt' body shape was an interesting idea, and the stripes were intended to look like a king cheetah, but it was otherwise a little simplistic and dull.
