>>35872336Anon you mentioned, I think it's mere coincidence but shuckle is a sort odd pokemon in terms of popularity. It can't push merchandise but fans enjoy the silliness of it.
>>35872340What shuckle actually is is up to debate, in all honesty it seems to take inspiration from so many things it can basically be seen as original.
However the one bug it seems to tale most after is the scale insects. Scale insects are small bugs that are mostly immobile, form a hard shell to defend themselves, and creat a sort of sweet "juice" to attract other insects.
