It is the evolved form of Slowpoke when exposed to a King's Rock while being traded, or in some games, when holding a King's Rock and leveling up. Slowking is renowned for its exceptional intelligence, which is attributed to the Shellder biting its head. Unlike Slowbro, whose Shellder bites its tail, Slowking’s Shellder enhances its brainpower, making it capable of solving complex problems and communicating telepathically. It is said to possess knowledge of all things and is often depicted as a wise and benevolent leader. Slowking's natural habitat includes coastal areas, islands, and sometimes ancient ruins, where it can be found meditating or dispensing wisdom. In the anime, Slowking played a significant role in "The Power of One," where it served as a wise oracle on Shamouti Island, guiding Ash Ketchum to prevent a global environmental catastrophe. Its unique evolution method and intellectual prowess make it a distinct and memorable Pokémon in the franchise, symbolizing wisdom and leadership.
