Appearance of Slowpoke
Slowpoke is characterized by its pink color. It is mostly pink and resembles a mix between a salamander and a hippopotamus. It is a four-legged creature that has a singular white claw on the end of each leg. Its long tail also has a white tip. This tail drips a sweet substance that attracts different kinds of fish. Naturally, Slowpoke uses his tail as a fishing lure. This causes him to lose his tail a lot.
Behavior of Slowpoke
Slowpoke is slow and not very bright. It takes a long time to respond to things. Sometimes, after losing his tail, it can take up to a full day before it realizes it. Slowpoke is very forgetful and often loses track of time and what it is doing. Slowpoke is also very slow-moving, as evidenced by its name. As mentioned in the Pokedex, Slowpoke is probably best characterized by the word oblivious.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Slowpoke, being a Water and Psychic-type Pokemon, is strong against Steel, Ice, Fire, Water, Fighting, and Psychic-type Pokemon. Slowpoke is also strong attacking against Poison and Ghost types. If an opponent has any of these types, Slowpoke is a great Pokemon to use. Slowpoke receives half the damage from these types. Slowpoke is weak to Grass, Electric, Bug, Ghost, and Dark types. These Pokemon will deal double damage to Slowpoke.
Alolan Slowpoke
The Alolan Slowpoke can be found in Galar in Pokemon: Sword and Shield. This Slowpoke is characterized by the yellow found on its head and tail, which is different from the mostly pink version that is the standard Slowpoke. The Alolan Slowpoke is often referred to as the Galarian Slowpoke, because of the region found in the game.
In Sword and Shield, Galarian Slowpoke can only evolve into Galarian Slowbro using an item called the Galarica Cuff. This item is essentially an evolution stone so you'll need to use it on your Galarian Slowpoke to trigger its evolution to Slowbro. First, you'll need to find Galarica Twigs in order to get the Galarica Cuff to evolve Slowbro.
Mega Slowbro
The Mega Slowbro is a rare evolution of Slowpoke. Slowbro can Mega Evolve into Mega Slowbro using the Slowbronite. If held by a Slowbro, the Slowbronite allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Slowbro when it completes a Spectacular Talent during a Pokémon Contest Spectacular, a contest in which Pokémon are judged on their condition and movesets in two rounds, to determine which one is the best of its category. while its Trainer has a Key Stone. Slowbro will remain a Mega Slowbro until the Talent Round finishes. Evolving a Mega Slowbro is fairly uncommon.
