Shell is an enemy Badnik encountered in Spring Stadium Zone, the third level of Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island.

Overview

Resembling a crab or clam, this Badnik will wheel round and pursue Sonic if the hedgehog walks nearby. The spikes on its back are purely cosmetic, and will pose no hazard whether Sonic attacks with a Spin Dash or a jump. Smash it to recover its organic battery power source, a red Flicky, and make Flickies' Island a slightly less dangerous place.

The name of this Badnik is conjectural, as no official name has been given to it. The name comes from the level editor in a development build of Sonic 3D that is included as a bonus feature in Sonic 3D: Director's Cut. Jon Burton has confirmed that the name was used in the original game.[1]
