What Shell Bell does in PokeBonk
You recover 0.8% of the damage you deal. Each extra copy adds the same bonus again, up to 10. Since version 0.5.3 bonuses of the same kind add together instead of multiplying.
Items work on every move you carry, whatever its shape, unless the effect names a shape or a type. The pause screen shows each move's damage per second, so you can check what Shell Bell adds mid-run.
How to get Shell Bell
Chests are Poke Balls you buy with PokeDollars during a run; each one costs more than the last. A paid Poke Ball lets you pick one of three items, Great Balls from challenge altars and guardians are free, and Meowth's shop sells four offers at a time. Uncommon items show up from the start of a run.
Shell Bell is open from the start. If it keeps crowding out items you want, the Lab's Archive upgrade removes up to three items per level from chests and the shop.
