Pokémon Description

Although this Pokémon is normally zoned out, its expression abruptly sharpens on occasion. The cause for this seems to lie in Slowpoke’s diet.

Because Galarian Slowpoke eat the seeds of a plant that grows only in Galar, their tails have developed a spicy flavor.

79 – Slowpoke

Japanese: ヤドン Yadon

Slowpoke are dual-type Pokémon. They are water-type and Psychic-type. They were first introduced in Generation I. Slowpoke evolve into Slowbro starting at Level 37. They also evolve into Slowking upon trading while holding King’s Rock.

Slowpokes usually live by the water’s edge.Slowpoke also have a Galarian form, a Psychic-type regional form that evolves into Slowbro when exposed to Galarica Cuffs.

Characteristics

Slowpoke are pink-colored Pokémon that are somewhere between hippopotamuses and salamanders. They weigh around 36 kilograms or 79 pounds and are 1.2 meters in height. They have vacant eyes that never seem to be in focus.

Their ears are curled in a rounded muzzle. Slowpoke have four legs, each with a single claw. Their long tail comes with a white tip. There is a sweet and sappy substance dripping from the tail.

Many fish in the sea are attracted to this substance. Therefore, this substance is often used by Slowpoke to help them prey on fish. If their tails break off, they can grow a new one. Their tails are often used in home-cooked stews in the Alolan region.

Slowpoke are dim Pokémon. They often forget what they are doing and take a long time to respond. They may take up to five seconds to respond to pain and can sometimes go a day without realizing their tail has been bitten off.

Some communities believe that Slowpoke’s yawn causes rain. In those communities, slowpokes are worshiped. In Galar, slowpoke have a yellow coloration on their forehead, and their tail is a brighter shade of pink.

Their tails emit a spicy substance instead of sweet. Galarian Slowpoke usually relax near seashores and riverbanks.
