'''Slowbro''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤドラン''' ''Yadoran'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Slowpoke}} starting at [[level]] 37. It is one of {{p|Slowpoke}}'s two final forms.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Slowbro are physically slightly different Slowpoke, with a {{p|Shellder}} latched to its tail on a symbiotic, almost parasitic relationship with the Slowbro. The extra weight on its tail turned the Slowpoke bipedal. As a result of carrying this burden, its special abilities were developed greatly. Through the symbiotic relationship, the latched Shellder grows in a spiral shell instead of a bivalve. If for any reason it loses its Shellder, it will result in the Slowbro returning to its former Slowpoke self.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Since it cannot fish anymore, it now has to catch prey. It is therefore, slightly faster than an ordinary Slowpoke, and is significantly more powerful. The most notable changes in Slowbro's movepool is the addition of physical fighting moves, such as {{m|Brick Break}}, {{m|Ice Punch}}, and {{m|Seismic Toss}}.

===Behavior===
Used to dozing off at shorelines and lakesides waiting for fish to bite the tip of its tail, the extra burden of a {{p|Shellder}} turned this Pokémon fisher into a hunter, against its own will.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Slowbro tend to live near ponds, lakes, and seashores. The best place to find them is in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Due to the Shellder on its tail preventing it from fishing, Slowbro instead grudgingly swims to catch prey instead.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Slowbro Anime.png|right|thumb|A Slowbro in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
[[Professor Westwood V]] had a Slowbro that evolved from a Slowpoke in ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]''.

[[Lorelei|Prima]] used a Slowbro to help {{Ash}} get his {{AP|Charizard}} under control in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]''.

A Slowpoke evolved into Slowbro in ''[[EP244|Enlighten Up!]]''.

Several Slowpoke evolve to Slowbro against their will in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]''.
 
===Minor appearances===
A Slowpoke that {{Ash}}'s missing Pokémon asked for help evolved at the end of ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''.

A Slowbro has appeared in ''[[AG179|May, We Hardly Drew'd Ya!]]'', under the ownership of [[Solidad]].

===Pokédex entries===

{{Animedexbody|EP244|Slowbro|Ash's Pokédex|Slowbro, the Hermit Crab Pokémon. Slowbro are able to use powerful {{t|Psychic}} [[Move|attacks]] but generally prefers to avoid conflict.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
[[Lorelei]] uses a Slowbro as part of her team in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. With the {{p|Shellder}} clamped onto its tail, Lorelei explains that her Slowbro has sharpened senses and is capable of looking in all directions, thanks to the extra pair of eyes, allowing it to discover {{adv|Blue}}'s ploy using {{p|Horsea}}.

==Trivia==
*Despite it being a commonly known and accepted fact that {{p|Shellder}} triggers the evolution, mentioned in most of its Pokédex entries, Slowbro's evolution from Slowpoke has nothing to do with Shellder in the games, unlike how the evolution of {{p|Mantyke}} requires a {{p|Remoraid}}.
*Slowbro's Pokédex entries imply that if the Shellder is removed, it will revert to its Slowpoke form. It is never mentioned what happens to the Shellder afterwards.
** This is the only mentioning of a Pokémon possibly devolving anywhere in the Pokémon games.
*Many Pokémon are noted to evolve by two or more Pokémon combining, such as {{p|Metang}} being formed by two {{p|Beldum}}. However, the {{pkmn|anime}} does not show this and simply spawns the second Pokémon out of nowhere: an example is [[Morrison's Beldum]], which simply evolved into Metang without the need of joining to another Beldum. The evolution of Slowpoke into Slowbro or {{p|Slowking}} is the only time that evolution by two Pokémon physically merging is shown.
* Interestingly, in Slowbro's Generation III backsprite and its Generation II sprite, the Shellder doesn't have spots, even though in the Generation III's regular sprite and the Generation II's back sprite, and all other games so far, it does have spots.
===Origin===
Slowbro's shell and lifestyle are somewhat similar to hermit crabs. Slowbro's appearance may also be a reference to the mythical {{wp|sazae-oni}}, a magical sea demon of Japanese folklore distinguished by its spiny "sazae" or "turban shaped" snail shell.
====Name origin====
Slowbro's name is a combination of ''slow'' and ''bro'', short for ''brother''. It may just be used in a general sense, in the same way someone would say "hey, brother!" It could also refer to the brotherly relationship shared by the combined form of {{p|Slowpoke}} and {{p|Shellder}}, or to the fact that it is somewhat based on a '''hermit''' crab, as seen on its Pokédex species.

''Yadoran'' may be taken to mean 宿らん, to not lodge/dwell. It is also possible that the ''yado'' comes from 宿借り ''yadokari'', {{wp|hermit crab}}, or 宿主 ''yadonushi'', (parasitic) host. Also, 鈍感 ''donkan'' means thickheaded or solid, and 鈍 ''don'' means slow, dull, or stupid.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Lahmus - From ''lahm'' (slow) and ''Muschel'' (shell or clam).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Flagadoss - From ''flagada'' (soft, weak) and ''molosse'' (big dog).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 야도란 ''Yadoran''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 大呆獸 - Literally "big slow-witted creature" (as opposed to Slowpoke being little slow-witted creature).
