Slaking (Japanese: ケッキング Kekking) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Vigoroth starting at level 36. It is the final form of Slakoth.

Biology

Slaking is a large, bulky, ape-like bipedal Pokémon. Most of its shaggy fur is brown, along with the semi-circle patterning under its eyes. Its face, chest, hands, and feet are lighter in color. Its brows are thick and jutting, and it has a large, pink, pig-like nose. Around its neck is a white collar of fur that extends over the top of its head before ending in a small tuft. It has large, five-fingered hands and two-toed feet.

During most of the day, Slaking lolls around and sleeps. It is considered the laziest Pokémon, but even when it is lounging it's saving energy. It can exert a lot of power by releasing built-up energy all at once and is said to be feared for its immense strength. In Generation III, Slack Off was its signature move. Slaking lives in tropical forests, where it feeds on grass and ripened fruit that falls from trees. It only moves around when there is no more food within reach for it to eat.

Prior to Generation V and in Generation IX, Slaking and its unevolved form, Slakoth, are the only known Pokémon that can have Truant as an Ability.

Evolution

Slaking evolves from Vigoroth and is the final form of Slakoth.

Norman's signature Pokémon is a Slaking, who first appeared in Brushing Past Breloom. Although it would seem that his Ability would be of a major hindrance, he shows that by having a Spinda tag alongside him and use Skill Swap in times of need, his impressive strength and speed would be wielded to their maximum. Additionally, the move Bulk Up allows him to bolster his stats even more.

Emerald used a Slaking during his Battle Factory challenge in Pinsir Me, I Must Be Dreaming. Thanks to Slack Off, it was able to outlast a Hitmonlee despite its type and speed disadvantages. After the battle, it was swapped with a Linoone.

The Battle Factory rented a Slaking, which was stolen by Guile Hideout in Skirting Around Surskit I.

Spenser used a Slaking against the young boy in Standing in the Way with Starmie, but their battle was not seen.

Slaking has several similarities to Regigigas. They are both Normal types, have hindering Abilities (Truant and Slow Start), have the highest base Attack stat of all Normal-type Pokémon, and have the same base stat totals.
Slaking has the highest base stat total of any non-Mythical, Legendary, or Mega Evolution.
A pre-alpha sketch from the development of Capsule Monsters depicts a Pokémon that bears a slight resemblance to Slaking.

Origin

Slaking appears to draw inspiration from sloths. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a Megatherium, also known as the giant ground sloth; however, it more closely resembles a gorilla. Due to its baldness, pink nose, and white fur on its head and around its neck, Slaking could also draw inspiration from an elderly man.

Slaking's evolutionary line goes through three stages of energy, where Slakoth is lazy, Vigoroth becomes extraordinarily energetic, and later Slaking becomes lazy again. This may be a reference to the Sphinx's riddle, in which the baby crawls on four legs, the adult has the most energy and walks on two legs, and the old man walks on three legs, one of which is a cane. In the case of Slaking, two legs and an arm touch the ground in its most preferable position.

Name origin

Slaking may be a combination of slacking and king.

Kekking may be a combination of 欠勤 kekkin (absence from work) and king.

-'''Slaking''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケッキング''' ''Kekking'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.
+}}
+'''Slaking''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケッキング''' ''Kekking'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].
 It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Vigoroth}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Slakoth}}.
 ==Biology==
-===Physiology===
+Slaking is a large, bulky, ape-like bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Most of its shaggy fur is brown, along with the semi-circle patterning under its eyes. Its face, chest, hands, and feet are lighter in color. Its brows are thick and jutting, and it has a large, pink, pig-like nose. Around its neck is a white collar of fur that extends over the top of its head before ending in a small tuft. It has large, five-fingered hands and two-toed feet.
-Slaking are large, bulky, ape-like Pokémon. Most of their fur is brown in coloration, along with the ring patterning encircling their eyes, but their face, chest, hands and feet are lighter in color. Their brows are thick and jutting. Slaking have a white collar of fur around their necks, extending towards the top of their head in a small tuft, somewhat resembling a bonnet. Slaking also have a large, pink, pig like nose.
-====Gender differences====
+During most of the day, Slaking lolls around and sleeps. It is considered the laziest Pokémon, but even when it is lounging it's saving energy. It can exert a lot of power by releasing built-up energy all at once and is said to be feared for its immense strength. In [[Generation III]], {{m|Slack Off}} was its [[signature move]]. Slaking lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|tropical forests}}, where it feeds on grass and ripened fruit that falls from trees. It only moves around when there is no more food within reach for it to eat.
-None.
-===Special abilities===
+Prior to [[Generation V]] and in [[Generation IX]], Slaking and its unevolved form, {{p|Slakoth}}, are the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Truant}} as an [[Ability]].
-While this Pokémon doesn't appear to do much most of the time, it has immense physical strength, stamina, and surprisingly enough, speed. Much like other Normal-types, it can be taught quite a number of elemental attacks.
-===Behavior===
+===Evolution===
-Slaking are the laziest of all Pokémon. They spend most of their time lying in grassy fields to eat, barely doing anything; however, when threatened, they will suddenly get up and strike with great power. If the grass they've eaten around them is gone, they move to a new spot with more grass.
+Slaking evolves from {{p|Vigoroth}} and is the final form of {{p|Slakoth}}.
-===Habitat===
+(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
-[[File:Forest.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
+<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
-Slaking live in dense forests, but are very difficult to find.

-Slaking usually eat grass that is in reach of them. Slaking also eat fruit, but they just wait until the fruits fall down from the trees instead of just climbing up and picking them.

In [[AG070|the following episode]], {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Grovyle|Sceptile}} defeated it in battle, winning Ash the {{badge|Balance}}. Slaking appeared again in ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' watching the [[Wallace Cup]] on television with Norman.

-===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
-{{main|Norman's Slaking}}
-[[Norman]]'s signature Pokémon is a {{TP|Norman|Slaking}}, just as in the games. Although it would seem that its {{a|Truant|ability}} would be of major hindrance, he shows that by having a {{p|Spinda}} tag alongside it and use {{m|Skill Swap}} in times of need, its impressive strength and speed would be wielded to their maximum. Additionally, the move {{m|Bulk Up}} allows it to bolster its stats even more.
-{{adv|Emerald}} used a Slaking during his {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Factory}} challenge. Thanks to {{m|Slack Off}}, it was able to outlast a {{p|Hitmonlee}} despite its type and speed disadvantages. After the battle, it was swapped with a {{p|Linoone}}.
-[[Palace Maven Spenser]] also used a Slaking against the young boy, but their battle was not seen.

+===Main series===
+[[File:Sawyer Slaking.png|thumb|250px|Slaking in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
+====Major appearances====
+=====[[Norman's Slaking]]=====
+Slaking debuted in ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style]]'', under the ownership of [[Norman]]. In [[AG070|the following episode]], [[Ash's Grovyle]] defeated it during a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, winning {{Ash}} the {{badge|Balance}}.
+=====Other=====
+Multiple Slaking appeared in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', where they played a major role.
+In ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'', [[Sawyer]] used a Slaking in the [[Lumiose Conference]], during which it defeated a Trainer's {{p|Medicham}}. In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'', it was used during Sawyer's [[Full Battle]] against {{Ash}}, where it defeated {{AP|Hawlucha}} before losing to {{AP|Talonflame}}.
+====Minor appearances====
+A Slaking appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.
+In ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]]'', a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Slaking was entered in the [[Pokémon Sumo Tournament]] on [[Harvest Island]]. It was [[Ash's Pignite]]'s second opponent, and it lost due to not even trying to make an effort in the battle.
+In ''[[JN095|The Good, The Bad, and The Lucky!]]'', [[James]] pulled a Slaking from the [[Rocket Prize Master]] that did absolutely nothing to help him.

+==In the manga==
+[[File:Norman Slaking Adventures.png|thumb|230px|Slaking in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
+===Ash & Pikachu===
+{{main|Norman's Slaking}}
+[[Norman]]'s Slaking appeared in ''[[SP25|I'll Win With My Own Battle Style!!]]''.
+===Pokémon Adventures===
+{{main|Norman's Slaking}}
+[[Norman]]'s signature Pokémon is a {{TP|Norman|Slaking}}, who first appeared in ''[[PS186|Brushing Past Breloom]]''. Although it would seem that his {{a|Truant|Ability}} would be of a major hindrance, he shows that by having a {{p|Spinda}} tag alongside him and use {{m|Skill Swap}} in times of need, his impressive strength and speed would be wielded to their maximum. Additionally, the move {{m|Bulk Up}} allows him to bolster his stats even more.
+{{adv|Emerald}} used a Slaking during his {{gdis|Battle Factory|III}} challenge in ''[[PS306|Pinsir Me, I Must Be Dreaming]]''. Thanks to {{m|Slack Off}}, it was able to outlast a {{p|Hitmonlee}} despite its type and speed disadvantages. After the battle, it was swapped with a {{p|Linoone}}.
+The Battle Factory rented a Slaking, which was stolen by [[Guile Hideout]] in ''[[PS315|Skirting Around Surskit I]]''.
+[[Spenser]] used a Slaking against the young boy in ''[[PS325|Standing in the Way with Starmie]]'', but their {{pkmn|battle}} was not seen.
+A Slaking appeared in a flashback as one of the Pokémon trained by the [[International Police]] in ''[[PS528|Innocent Scientist]]''.
+===Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire===
+A Slaking appeared in ''[[PMRS17|Serious Bicycle Match!]]'', under the ownership of [[Rydel's rival]].

+Two Slaking appeared in {{DetPikMov}}.
 ==Trivia==
-* Tied with {{p|Regigigas}}, Slaking has the highest {{stat|Attack}} stat out of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon
+* Slaking has several similarities to {{p|Regigigas}}. They are both {{t|Normal}} types, have [[:Category:Abilities with negative effects|hindering]] {{Abilities}} ({{a|Truant}} and {{a|Slow Start}}), have the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon, and have the same base stat totals.
-* At 670, Slaking has the highest base stat total of any non-legendary Pokémon, tying with the legendary Pokémon {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Regigigas}}. This makes it the only non-legendary Pokémon to have a base stat total of over 600.
+* Slaking has the highest base stat total of any non-{{pkmn2|Mythical}}, {{pkmn2|Legendary}}, or [[Mega Evolution]].
-* Although Slaking is said to slack off like {{p|Slakoth}}, it gains a higher speed stat upon evolving from {{p|Vigoroth}} (although Vigoroth does not have Truant).
+* A {{DL|List of unused Pokémon and character designs|Godzillante & Gorillaimo|pre-alpha sketch}} from the development of [[Capsule Monsters]] depicts a Pokémon that bears a slight resemblance to Slaking.
-* In double and triple battles, one can nullify Slaking's Truant ability by using either {{m|Skill Swap}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}. Several Trainers in {{game|Emerald}} use this power, including [[Norman]] during the player's rematches with him. Cipher Head Evice is the very first Trainer in any game to use this tactic. Without Truant, Slaking can make full use of its impressive stats. This can also be done in single battles by using a [[contact]] move on a Pokémon with {{a|Mummy}}. Despite its Pokédex entries saying that it is saving energy for striking back, it is no less powerful without its ability.
-* A {{DL|Prototype Pokémon and characters|Godzillante & Gorillaimo|pre-alpha sketch}} depicts a Pokémon that bears a striking resemblance to Slaking.
 ===Origin===
-It appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|sloth}}s and some form of {{wp|ape}}. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a {{wp|Megatherium}}, also known as the Giant Ground Sloth, however, it more closely resembles a {{wp|gorilla}}.
+Slaking appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|sloth}}s. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a ''{{wp|Megatherium}}'', also known as the giant ground sloth; however, it more closely resembles a {{wp|gorilla}}. Due to its baldness, pink nose, and white fur on its head and around its neck, Slaking could also draw inspiration from an elderly man.
+Slaking's evolutionary line goes through three stages of energy, where  {{p|Slakoth}} is lazy, {{p|Vigoroth}} becomes extraordinarily energetic, and later Slaking becomes lazy again. This may be a reference to the {{wp|Sphinx#Riddle of the Sphinx|Sphinx's riddle}}, in which the baby crawls on four legs, the adult has the most energy and walks on two legs, and the old man walks on three legs, one of which is a cane. In the case of Slaking, two legs and an arm touch the ground in its most preferable position.
 ====Name origin====
-Slaking is a combination of ''slake'' (to slacken) or a corruption of ''slack'' (to become lazy) and ''king''. It may also be a play on ''slacking''.
+Slaking may be a combination of ''slacking'' and ''king''.
-Kekking may be a combination of 怠ける ''namakeru'' (to be idle), 欠勤 ''kekkin'' (absence), or 怠け者 ''namakemono'' (sloth) and ''king''.
+Kekking may be a combination of 欠勤 ''kekkin'' (absence from work) and ''king''.
