Galarian Slowking's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Galarian Slowking PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Galarian Slowking shares the same Poison/Psychic type combination with Galarian Slowbro, but hits a little harder and is considerably bulkier. King stuff, eh! 👑

That still doesn't make it good enough for PvE though, since the stats are lackluster.

⚔️ Raids

Forget being a king, it's not even a prince as a Raid counter. A pauper, perhaps?

🛡️ Gyms

With a useful type combination and nice bulk to boot, it's a reasonably good Gym defender 👏

Galarian Slowking PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

Galarian Slowking is sadly not that good in PvP.

🔵 Great League

While G.King has a solid defensive typing and solid fast attack in Acid. Its stats are a bit all over the place and it lacks a fast reliable spammy charged attack to make it a good pick in the open format.

🟡 Ultra League

The king does not do well here either, despite it getting some key wins against some big Fairy-types and Verizion. Galarian Slowbro actually does that slightly better but really, you have better options to deal with fairies than either Galarian Slowbro or Slowking.

🟣 Master League

This King is Slow, and slayed with no effort by the Master League meta.
