Slowking (Japanese: ヤドキング Yadoking) is a dual-type Water/Psychic Pokémon.
It evolves from Slowpoke by trade with a King's Rock.
Biology
Physiology
Slowking are regular Slowpoke who suffered a peculiar event. The King's Rock they rarely hold attracts Shellder, and gets bitten on its head instead of its tail. The poison that some Shellder secretes reached Slowpoke's brain, turning it extremely intelligent.
In appearance, Slowking looks much like a bipedal Slowpoke with its Shellder resembling a crown. There is a small red gem on the upper part of this "crown". Slowking also somehow gains a red and white ruff around its neck to increase its "regalness".
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Slowking possess an amazing intelligence, to the point that it can match human, also it can understand and speak the human language. They can plan situations with effective results.
Slowking has a weaker Defense stat than Slowbro's as a trade-off to having strong Special Defense. Slowking can use Nasty Plot and the rarely seen Trump Card attack while being unable to learn Slack Off and Amnesia on its own (those two moves would have to come from the Slowpoke it evolved from).
Behavior
Because Slowking is much more intelligent than Slowpoke or Slowbro, wild Slowking must lead colonies of wild Slowpoke and Slowbro in times of crisis.
Habitat
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
In the anime
Slowking first appeared in The Power of One. He gave Ash advice on where to find the orbs. This same Slowking made another appearance in a special episode called Slowking's Day that showed what he does on a daily basis.
A group of Slowpoke were trying to reach a King's Rock to evolve to Slowking in A Crowning Achievement. One finally succeeded at the end.
A Slowking belonging to Conway appeared in Tag! We're It...!. It reappeared in DP089.
In the manga
Pokémon Special
A hint of Slowking's existence first appeared in Template:PSV, while Lorelei was musing on Slowbro's enhanced abilities after it had been bitten by Shellder. She remarked that Slowpoke would likely have improved abilities if it was bitten on its head.
However, Slowking's proper debut was in Template:PSV, under the ownership of Chermaine. It was able to use its Snore attack to show that it could attack even when asleep.
Slowking appeared once more under the ownership of Lorelei in Template:PSV.
In the TCG

Trivia
- In the anime, Slowking is one of the few Pokémon who talks like a human.
- It is said if the Shellder on Slowking's head is removed it will forget everything it has learned. This may mean that, like Slowbro, it will devolve into Slowpoke.
- To date, Slowking is the only Pokémon with a catch rate of 70.
- In the TCG, Slowking's Southern Islands card is the only card depicting a Pokémon introduced after Generation I to have a square evolution box, in Japan only. In English, the Southern Islands collection used the Neo-era designs, which, like all later card layouts, feature a circular evolution box.
Origin
While Slowking is based on a royal king, it also vaguely resembles a pygmy hippopotamus and has traits of a hermit crab.
Name origin
Slowking's name is a combination of slow and king. Its Japanese name is a combination of 宿主 yadonushi, (parasitic) host, and English king. The yado part of Slowking's Japanese name may also refer to 宿借り yadokari, hermit crab.
In other languages
- German: Laschoking - From lasch (lame or lackadaisical) and king.
- French: Roigada
- Korean: 야도킹 Yadoking
