Shaymin is one of many giant pokemon battle mechs built on the Island of the Giant Mechanical Pokemon, a huge natural landscape with hidden factories that manufacture and repair battle mechs. Tourists love to visit the Island and admire the giant pokemon mechs here. Giant pokemon battle mechs are filled with weapons, turrets and armour letting them use giant magitek versions of their pokemon moves, love to show off in fights, are friendly and talkative with tourists, and can go on rampages.
