Tips
There are 5 snail pets in the game — Rapana Whelk, Rusty Snail, Scooter the Snail, Shimmershell Snail, and Silkbead Snail — and all share the same moveset, so if you already own a rare-quality snail from a catchable species, using a
Flawless Critter Battle-Stone on Scooter is not a priority.Scooter ties for the top HP stat among snail breeds alongside the Shimmershell Snail, making a
Flawless Critter Battle-Stone worthwhile if you specifically want the highest HP snail without hunting for the correct rare Shimmershell Snail breed.High HP combined with Shell Shield makes Scooter a strong tank-style pet; Absorb serves as a reliable filler move since it also heals him and scales up over time.
