Slowking is a bipedal | Slowking is a bipedal Pokémon with a {{p|Shellder}} latched onto its head. It is primarily pink, with a pale yellow muzzle and scaled belly. Its feet and hands each have a single clawed digit, while the hands also have a clawless thumb. Around its neck is a spiny ruff with alternating red and white stripes. The Shellder on its head has a spiral shape with two horns near the base. A red gem resides in the center of the Shellder. | ||
Shellder's bite releases venom into Slowpoke's brain, causing a chemical chain-reaction that unlocks a superior intelligence and extraordinary power. | Shellder's bite releases venom into Slowpoke's brain, causing a chemical chain-reaction that unlocks a superior intelligence and extraordinary power. More venom is injected into Slowking every time it yawns. The more venom the Shellder releases, the more intelligent Slowking will become. However, if the Shellder on its head comes off, it will forget everything it has learned. Slowking's intelligence can match that of a human and it constantly attempts to learn more. Its inspiration and intuition are also highly developed, and Slowking is able to stay calm in any situation and plan situations with effective results. [[M02|In the anime]], it can [[Talking Pokémon|understand and speak the human language]]. According to [[The Complete Pokémon Pocket Guide]], it has such an easy-going personality that it is never stressed. Slowking lives {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|by the water's edge}}. It [[Slowking's Day|has been seen]] eating seaweed and drinking coconut milk. | ||

Slowking first appeared in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''. This {{pkmn2|talking}} {{OBP|Slowking|M02}} 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. | |||

Slowking made its first anime appearance in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', where a colony of Slowpoke are attempting to reach the King's Rock in order to evolve into one so that they could help save the colony from a drought. The Slowpoke were faced with many problems since the King's Rock was also surrounded by {{p|Shellder}} and when ever they fail to reach it they evolve into a {{p|Slowbro}} instead. One Slowpoke named Arthur, which was owned by [[Alice Telesu|Alice]], tries and eventually succeeds. In the end, he leaves Alice in order to be the leader for the colony. It reappeared in {{AP|Larvitar}} and {{p|Unown}}'s vision in the episode ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]''. | Slowking made its first anime appearance in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', where a colony of Slowpoke are attempting to reach the King's Rock in order to evolve into one so that they could help save the colony from a drought.

Slowking (Japanese: ヤドキング Yadoking) is a dual-type Water/Psychic Pokémon.
It evolves from Slowpoke when traded while holding a King's Rock. It is one of Slowpoke's final forms, the other being Slowbro.
Biology
Slowking is a bipedal Pokémon with a Shellder latched onto its head. It is primarily pink, with a pale yellow muzzle and scaled belly. Its feet and hands each have a single clawed digit, while the hands also have a clawless thumb. Around its neck is a spiny ruff with alternating red and white stripes. The Shellder on its head has a spiral shape with two horns near the base. A red gem resides in the center of the Shellder.
Shellder's bite releases venom into Slowpoke's brain, causing a chemical chain-reaction that unlocks a superior intelligence and extraordinary power. More venom is injected into Slowking every time it yawns. The more venom the Shellder releases, the more intelligent Slowking will become. However, if the Shellder on its head comes off, it will forget everything it has learned. Slowking's intelligence can match that of a human and it constantly attempts to learn more. Its inspiration and intuition are also highly developed, and Slowking is able to stay calm in any situation and plan situations with effective results. In the anime, it can understand and speak the human language. According to The Complete Pokémon Pocket Guide, it has such an easy-going personality that it is never stressed. Slowking lives by the water's edge. It has been seen eating seaweed and drinking coconut milk.
In the anime
Major appearances
Slowking (M02)
Slowking first appeared in The Power of One. This talking Slowking 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.
Other
Slowking made its first anime appearance in A Crowning Achievement, where a colony of Slowpoke are attempting to reach the King's Rock in order to evolve into one so that they could help save the colony from a drought. The Slowpoke were faced with many problems since the King's Rock was also surrounded by Shellder and when ever they fail to reach it they evolve into a Slowbro instead. One Slowpoke named Arthur, which was owned by Alice, tries and eventually succeeds. In the end, he leaves Alice in order to be the leader for the colony. It reappeared in Larvitar and Unown's vision in the episode Address Unown.
A Slowking belonging to Conway appeared in Tag! We're It...! and Smells Like Team Spirit! for the Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition. It later reappeared in Up Close and Personable!.
Minor appearances
A Slowking appeared in the opening scenes of Lucario and the Mystery of Mew and Zoroark: Master of Illusions.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
A hint of Slowking's existence first appeared in Bang the Drum, Slowbro, while Lorelei was musing on Slowbro's enhanced abilities after it had been bitten by Shellder. She remarked that Slowpoke would likely have further improved abilities if it was bitten on its head.
However, Slowking's proper debut was in Oh, It's Ho-Oh!, under the ownership of Sham. It was able to use its Snore alongside Carl's Magcargo to attack even when asleep. However, a double Giga Drain defeated them both.
Another Slowking appeared in The Last Battle XIII as one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in Ilex Forest.
Slowking appeared once more under the ownership of Lorelei herself in Enter The Three Beasts, and was used to escape the Icefall Cave when Carr detonated his Forretress, as well as to battle Sird.
In the Platinum arc, Charon was seen in possession of a Slowking. This Slowking was used to provoke Giratina into attacking Pearl, and later was used to attack Pearl again when Diamond was "killed." It was later abandoned toward the end of the arc.
In the X & Y arc, Olympia has a Slowking where it was used to help stop the Ultimate weapon from activating.

Trivia
- 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.
- The Shellder of Slowbro's Shiny form is gold, like a Shiny Shellder. This is not so for Shiny Slowking.
- Slowking shares its category name with Pyroar. They are both known as the Royal Pokémon.
Origin
Slowking's shell makes it similar to hermit crabs, though it is physically similar to giant otters, giant salamanders, and hippopotamuses. Its shell "crown" may also be a reference to the mythical sazae-oni, a magical sea demon of Japanese folklore distinguished by its spiny "sazae" or "turban shaped" snail shell. It is also based on a king, as the growth around its neck is based on a king's ruff while its shell is similar to a crown.
Name origin
Slowking is a combination of slow and king.
Yadoking is a combination of 宿借り yadokari (hermit crab) and king. Alternatively, it may also derive from 宿主 yadonushi ([parasitic] host), based on its relationship with Shellder in its evolutions.
