[edit] Appearance
This Pokémon has a gorrila-like appearance. Slaking are large, bulky, ape like Pokémon. They have a white collar of fur around their necks, and pig like nose.
[edit] Special Abilities
It has the ability Truant, which lets it attack every other turn, however, its superb stats (Attack and Speed especially) more than make up for this drawback. While this Pokémon doesn't appear to do much most of the time, it has immense physical strength, stamina and surprisingly enough, speed. Much like other normal types, it can be taught quite a number of elemental attacks. it has the highest stats of any non-legendary Pokemon.
[edit] In the Anime
In the anime, May's father, Norman, has a Slaking, and it is first seen in Love, Petalburg Style. In the following episode, Ash's Grovyle defeats it, earning him the Balance Badge.
