Read more ↓Slakoth, the Slacker Pokémon, is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III. It is the first stage in an evolutionary line, evolving into Vigoroth and then into Slaking. Slakoth is known for its incredibly lazy demeanor, spending most of its day sleeping or lying down, only moving a meter a day. This behavior is directly tied to its ability in the mainline games, Truant, which allows it to only attack every other turn. Slakoth’s natural habitat is typically dense forests, where it can find secluded spots to rest undisturbed. Its diet primarily consists of leaves and berries, which it consumes at a leisurely pace. Despite its apparent laziness, Slakoth holds a significant place in the Pokémon world as the pre-evolution of Slaking, one of the most powerful Normal-type Pokémon in terms of raw stats. Its unique design and endearing sloth-like qualities have made it a memorable character for many fans, highlighting the diverse range of creature behaviors within the Pokémon universe.
