[Rebuild Tuesday] SwSh Meta Predictions: Galarian Slowking!

Posted: 03 Aug 2020 09:01 PM PDT

Hello everyone!

Welcome to this week's edition of Rebuild Tuesday, a weekly event we're doing along with our Discord!

Continuing with the series from the last few weeks, instead of asking you to rebuild an existing Pokémon, this week we're asking you to speculate on what the movesets for an upcoming Pokémon might look like and where you think it'd end up in the meta if it does have those moves!

This week's Pokemon is Galarian Slowking!

#199 Galarian Slowking (Japanese ヤドキング Yadoking)

Electron Pokémon

Introduction:

The last unreleased DLC Pokemon that we know of, and the one that we know the least about so far, Galarian Slowking, is a regional variant of the Johtonian Slowking. Its typing, stats, abilities and moves are all unknown. Its design is partially omitted as well, showing us only the body. Given how Galarian Slowpoke is pure Psychic, it is likely it will retain its Psychic typing. As far as a secondary typing goes, many have guessed either Dark or Ghost, given parts of the design we can actually see. It is likely to retain Own Tempo and Regenerator (Hidden) as abilities as well. These are purely speculation, but what do you think?

What do you trainers think will become of Galarian Slowking in the meta? What sets will be most used? Which Smogon tier will it be placed in?

In addition to discussing how you feel this Pokémon will be in the new meta, feel free to discuss your likes and dislikes about it, be they from your playthroughs of the main series or side games, your success or failure with this Pokémon competitively, any cool fan artwork (with the source) featuring this Pokémon that you'd like to share, or anything else!

For those who want to see previous Pokémon covered, you can view a list of our Gen 7 rebuilds here and our current SwSh series here.

We'd also suggest checking out our Discord each Tuesday for live discussion on these topics as well!

If there are any new Sword/Shield Pokémon (or returning Pokémon with significant changes from previous gens) that you'd like to see featured in future weeks, let us know by sending me a PM with your suggestion!
