Slowking-Galar @ Assault Vest
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Sludge Bomb
- Future Sight
- Flamethrower
- Earthquake

Assault Vest Galarian Slowking can shrug off even the mightiest of special attacking threats to Psychic-type teams such as Volcarona, Tapu Koko, Alolan Raichu, and Kyurem while staying healthy with Regenerator. Sludge Bomb handles Pokemon like Tapu Fini and Tapu Koko and hits hard against neutral targets like Rotom-W. Future Sight lets Galarian Slowking support its offensive teammates like Choice Band Victini by making them hard for opposing teams to wall. Flamethrower lets it nail Ferrothorn, Skarmory, and Scizor, while Earthquake lets it deal with Heatran. It fits best on balance builds with defensive staples like Mew and Slowbro, which compliment it well by taking on and weakening checks like Landorus-T, Excadrill, and Urshifu-R. It also forms a solid Regenerator core with Slowbro. Choice Scarf Tapu Lele can also cover Dark- and Dragon-type Pokemon for it like Hydreigon and Garchomp.

Galarian Slowking's naturally high Special Defense when combined with Assault Vest allows it to shrug off even the mightiest of special attacking threats to Psychic-type teams such as Volcarona, Tapu Koko, Alolan Raichu, and Kyurem. [If you could tie in a mention about Regenerator in the first line would be nice but if you can't fit it in with the character limit, leave it out.] This provides Psychic-type teams as a solid answer to these troublesome Pokemon while it also being able to cover a wide variety of threats due to its coverage moves. Sludge Bomb lets it handle Pokemon like Tapu Fini, Tapu Koko and hit hard against neutral targets like Rotom-W. Future Sight lets Galarian Slowking support its offensive teammates like Choice Band Victini by making it hard to wall them for opposing teams. Flamethrower lets it nail Pokemon Steel-types like Ferrothorn, Skarmory and weaken Celesteela Scizor while Earthquake lets it deal with catch Heatran off-guard [Doesn't necessarily catch Heatran off guard since Earthquake is fairly standard and expected on Glowking now.] to later threaten entire Steel-type team with Flamethrower. It fits best on balance builds with defensive staples like Mew and Slowbro [Could add that it forms a fantastic Regenerator core with Slowbro.] that compliment it well by taking on and weakening checks like Landorus-T, Excadrill, and Urshifu-R. Choice Scarf Tapu Lele can also cover Dark- and Dragon-type Pokemon for it like Hydreigon and Garchomp.
