* In double and triple battles, one can nullify Slaking's Truant ability by using either {{m|Skill Swap}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}. Several Trainers in {{game|Emerald}} use this power, including [[Norman]] during the player's rematches with him. [[Cipher]] Head [[Evice]] -- the final boss and main antagonist of [[Pokémon Colosseum]] -- is the very first Trainer in any game to use this tactic. Without Truant, Slaking can make full use of its impressive stats. This can also be done in single battles by using a [[contact]] move on a Pokémon with {{a|Mummy}} such as [[Cofagrigus]]. | * In double and triple battles, one can nullify Slaking's Truant ability by using either {{m|Skill Swap}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}.

* Slaking has more similarities to {{p|Regigigas}} than any non-legendary Pokémon. They are both {{type|Normal}}, both have hindering abilities ({{a|Truant}} and {{a|Slow Start}}), both have the highest {{stat|Attack}} base stat out of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon and both have the same base stat totals | |||
