PvE Analysis

Here's an idea; let's try messing with some AI bots!

Shadow Slaking is the best Pokemon in the game, and is the only Pokemon that you'll ever need. it can handle raids, pvp, rockets, gyms, and even do your taxes. It outclasses Shadow Mewtwo, Primal Groudon, Primal Kyogre, Kyurem White, Kyurem Black, and every other Pokemon in the game thanks to its tremendous Attack stat and Shadow boost!

....are they gone? Okay, good. Yeah, don't invest in Shadow Slaking, the thing is absolutely worthless.

Best PvE Defensive Moveset

  • Play Rough is superior to Shadow Slaking’s other charge moves due to being a multi-bar charge move with an early damage window and excellent counter coverage. Slaking really needs Play Rough in order to have any teeth.
  • Body Slam is another three-bar charge move. It receives STAB, but the potential Super Effective bonus from Play Rough means its usually better.
  • Hyper Beam offers a unique advantage in that if it isn’t dodged, the majority of Shadow Slaking’s counters will be KOed.
  • Earthquake is underwhelming in every aspect.  

PvP Analysis

Yawn + Play Rough and Earthquake

*Yawn* Try using something with more consistent damage output. Like Shuckle.
