Description: A dinosaur Pokémon from 100 million years ago, Shieldon was resurrected by scientists using an Armor Fossil. It resembled a ceratopsian, having a large saucer-like protrusion on its face. Most of its body is yellow and its face is black, save for two metallic grey stripes. Each of its four feet have a single grey toe and there is a grey bump on the center of its back.
Shieldon made their homes in dense forests and would use trees to polish their faces. They had very few predators due to their thick hide and lived off berries, roots, and foliage. Their facial plates were exceptionally sturdy, protecting them from frontal assault.
