==In the manga==

A hint of Slowking's existence first appeared in ''[[PS083|Bang the Drum, Slowbro]]'', while [[Lorelei]] was musing on {{p|Slowbro}}'s enhanced abilities after it had been bitten by {{p|Shellder}}. She remarked that {{p|Slowpoke}} would likely have further improved abilities if it was bitten on its head.

* In the TCG, Slowking's {{TCG|Southern Islands}} card is the only card depicting a Pokémon introduced after [[Generation I]] to have a square evolution box, in Japan only. In English, the Southern Islands collection used the Neo-era designs, which, like all later card layouts, feature a circular evolution box.

* Slowking shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Pyroar}}. They are both known as the Royal Pokémon.
