Although its fossils can be found in layers of primeval rock, nothing but its face has ever been discovered. Shieldon is the first stage of a two-stage evolutionary line, evolving into Bastiodon in the main series. It carries the Crush specialty, allowing it to break apart rocks and hard objects.

2525 Shieldon has the Crush specialty. Pokemon with the Crush specialty can break apart rocks, boulders, and other hard objects on your island. Despite being known as the Shield Pokemon with a defensive nature, Shieldon's hard face plate gives it the ability to smash through obstacles effectively. Assign Shieldon to a rock formation and it will break it into usable stone materials.

Its taste for Sweet-flavored foods means sugary treats and sweet berries are the best option. Shieldon's preference for round stuff is a nod to its rounded shield-like face.

3939 Shieldon evolves into Bastiodon (Dex #275) in the main Pokemon series. In Pokopia, there is no evolution mechanic, so each must be found at its own habitat independently. Shieldon has the Crush specialty, while Bastiodon carries both Litter (Stone) and Crush. Shieldon and Cranidos are counterpart fossil Pokemon from Generation 4, representing the defensive and offensive sides respectively. In Pokopia, they share the same Crush specialty but appear at different fossil display habitats.
