Base Stats

Type Matchups

Weak to: Electric Grass Bug Ghost Dark
Resists: Fire Water Ice Fighting Psychic Steel
The matchups below are for the base Water/Psychic form (weak to Electric, Grass, Bug, Ghost, Dark). Galarian Slowking is Poison/Psychic instead: weak to Ground, Ghost and Dark, but it gains Poison and Fairy resistances.

Abilities

  • Regenerator — restores a third of its HP on switch-out, making either form a tireless pivot.
  • Own Tempo — immunity to confusion.
  • Curious Medicine (Galarian) — resets allies' stat changes on switch-in (situational utility).

Best Moveset

Bulky special support / Trick Room

  • Scald / Psychic — STAB (Galarian uses Sludge Bomb + Psychic).
  • Trick Room — set the room for slow attackers.
  • Nasty Plot — boost for an offensive set (especially Galarian).
  • Slack Off or Protect — recovery or safety.

It also has Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Thunder Wave and screens.

Suggested SP Spread

With the SP system, Slowking wants HP and Special Defense with a slow Stat Alignment for a Trick Room support build; Galarian Slowking can invest in Special Attack for a Nasty Plot set. Tune it in the team builder.

Competitive Role in Regulation M-A

Slowking is a bulky special pivot and Trick Room enabler. Regenerator lets it cycle in and out repeatedly, setting Trick Room, throwing out status, and supporting partners, while Galarian Slowking leans offensive with Nasty Plot and Poison STAB. Slow and durable, it is a natural fit for Trick Room and bulky balance cores.

Evolution Line

Slowpoke → Slowking (trade holding a King's Rock). Galarian Slowking comes from a Galarian Slowpoke (using a Galarica Wreath). Slowking does not Mega Evolve.

How to Get Slowking in Pokemon Champions

  • Evolve Slowpoke — trade Slowpoke holding a King's Rock (Galarian via Galarica Wreath on a Galarian Slowpoke).
  • Roster Ranch recruitment — available during the Regulation M-A season (around April–June 2026); permanently recruitable with Teammate Tickets.
  • Transfer via Pokemon HOME — move a Slowking from another title into Pokemon Champions.
