===Physiology===
Slowking are regular Slowpoke who suffered a peculiar event. The [[King's Rock]] they rarely hold attracts {{P|Shellder}}, and gets bitten on its head instead of its tail. The poison that the Shellder secretes reached Slowpoke's brain, causing it to become extremely intelligent. Upon evolving, the lighter-coloration on the tip of Slowpoke’s tail disappeared. Like {{p|Slowbro}}, Slowking also has a scaled underbelly, if lower in position compared to Slowbro’s.

In appearance, Slowking looks much like a bipedal Slowpoke with its Shellder resembling a crown, although the shape of Slowking's eyes and the scales on its belly cause it to differ from its pre-evolution. There is a small red gem on the upper part of the "crown". Slowking also somehow gains a red and white ruff around its neck to emphasize its "regality."

A Slowking appeared in {{AP|Larvitar}} and {{p|Unown}}'s vision in the episode ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]''. As all the Pokémon in this vision were seen recently, it is possibly the same one that appeared three episodes beforehand.

*In the TCG, Slowking's {{TCG|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.
