Read more ↓Galarian Slowking is a Psychic/Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII as part of the Isle of Armor expansion for Pokémon Sword and Shield. It evolves from Galarian Slowpoke when exposed to a Galarica Cuff. Unlike its Kantonian counterpart, which is a pure Psychic type, Galarian Slowking gains a unique Poison typing, reflected in its darker, more ominous appearance and often unsettling demeanor. Its design draws inspiration from a shaman or sorcerer, with the Shellder on its head resembling a crown or a peculiar hat, merging with Slowpoke in a more sinister way than the original Slowbro or Slowking. This regional variant is known for its intelligence and its ability to concoct strange, often potent, concoctions. Its Pokédex entries describe it as a practitioner of a mysterious incantation, channeling psychic energy through its Shellder. In the games, it often plays a role associated with ancient knowledge or peculiar rituals. Its dual typing offers interesting strategic advantages and disadvantages, being weak to Ground, Ghost, and Dark moves, while resisting Fighting, Poison, Grass, and Fairy. Galarian Slowking's distinct lore and design have made it a fan favorite, adding depth to the Slowpoke evolutionary line and showcasing the creative potential of regional forms in the Pokémon world.
