The effect can last anywhere from 25 to 40 seconds. In this game, if one were to give a Shell Shock to Saffron, she would bake a Courage Shell. However, if one gives the Courage Shell to Saffron, she will bake a Mistake. Courage Shells can be purchased from Howzit's shop in Flipside for 10 coins. Various enemies can also drop Courage Shells.
