Slowpoke (Japanese: ヤドン Yadon) is a dual-type Water/Psychic Pokémon. It first appeared in the Generation I games.

Slowpoke can evolve into one of two Pokémon: into Slowbro beginning at level 37, or into Slowking when traded holding a King's Rock.

Biology

Physiology

Slowpoke are large pink creatures which resemble a cross between a salamander and a hippopotamus. Their tails becomes lighter towards the tip, they have curled ears, and have tan muzzles.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Slowpoke have unusual tails which drip a sweet-tasting sappy substance. This substance is attractive to many species of fish, and can be used as a lure. Also, if their tail is cut off, it'll grow back quickly. Unfortunately, Slowpoke are extremely stupid, and tend to forget what they are doing.

Unlike most Template:Type2 Pokémon, Slowpoke are capable of using Template:Type2 attacks, like Flamethrower.

Behavior

Slowpoke are amphibious creatures of notoriously dim intellect. They take a long time to respond to outside stimuli, it takes as much as five seconds for it to process pain. Its tail is particularly numb to pain, it takes more than a day for it to feel when it has been bitten on its tail. Although they are generally seen as being extraordinarily stupid, they are very gentle and caring, as well as skilled fishermen. Unfortunately, they are easily distracted and forget what they were doing. Although many view Slowpoke as largely useless creatures, many folktales surround Slowpoke, including the belief that their yawns cause rain.

Habitat

Water's-edge Pokémon

Slowpoke are commonly found at the water's edge. Their home range includes Kanto, Johto, and occasionally Sinnoh.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Slowpoke uses its tail to catch prey by dipping it in water at the side of a river.

Major appearances

Slowpoke's first major role was in The Evolution Solution. Ash and co. asked for the help of Professor Westwood V to help figure out why Slowpoke only evolved into Slowbro when a Shellder clamped on its tail (a question that was giving Professor Oak a headache). Westwood's Slowpoke evolved when a Shellder that Jessie caught clamped on to the Dopey Pokémon's tail.

A Shadow of a Drought revealed that Azalea Town considers Slowpoke sacred due to legends claiming that Slowpoke's yawning can summon rain.

Enlighten Up! introduced practitioners of a religion similar to Buddhism that see Slowpoke's empty head as a sign of enlightenment and worship by meditating along with Slowpoke and Slowbro.

A group of Slowpoke were trying to reach a King's Rock to evolve into Slowking in A Crowning Achievement. One finally succeeded at the end.

Minor appearances

Slowpoke's first appearance was a brief one in Island of the Giant Pokémon. Ash's Pokémon asked it for help, but it didn't respond. It evolved into a Slowbro at the very end of the episode.

In the manga

In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga

Ash captures a giant Slowpoke in the manga series The Electric Tale of Pikachu. He later trades it to Gary Oak for a photo of his sister, May Oak.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

A Slowpoke appears under the control of Team Rocket in The Coming of Slowpoke (Eventually).

A Swimmer lent his Slowpoke to Yellow to compete in a surfing contest that was interrupted by Lance's attack on Vermilion City.

In Teddiursa's Picnic, a herd of Slowpoke in Azalea Town had their tails cut off by Team Rocket, causing the Slowpoke Well to stop providing water. Gold proceeds to tire one out with his Aipom, prompting it to yawn and therefore cause the well to start flowing again.

In the TCG

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Trivia

• Slowpoke's original English name was "Slowmo".
• In the anime, Slowpoke evolves into a Slowbro if a Shellder bites its tail. It will evolve into a Slowking if one bites its head while it has the King's Rock on it.
• The Japanese and international Pokémon Silver have different sprites for Slowpoke, with the Japanese versions having the same striped bellies that Slowbro and Slowking sport. It is unknown why this was changed. However, its striped underside is still partially visible in all of its Gold and Crystal sprites.
• Like Mantyke, Slowpoke evolves when another Pokémon attaches to it (as seen in the anime). However, proximity-based evolution (requiring Mantyke and Remoraid to be in the same party) did not exist in Generation I, so Shellder has no bearing on Slowpoke's evolution.
• Up until HeartGold and SoulSilver, all of Slowpoke's sprites had their mouths open. It is still its only sprite to do so.
• Slowpoke is the only Pokémon whose multiple evolutions have different total EV yields: it evolves at level 37 into a Pokémon with an EV yield of 2 (Slowbro), but when traded holding a King's Rock, it evolves into a Pokémon with an EV yield of 3 (Slowking). The only other Pokémon with an EV yield of 1 who evolve directly into a Pokémon with an EV yield of 3 are Paras (evolves into Parasect at level 24), Nosepass (evolves into Probopass upon gaining a level at Mt. Coronet), and Larvesta (evolves into Volcarona at level 59).
• Slowpoke's National Dex number is the whole number portion of its weight in pounds. It is one of only two Pokémon with this distinction; the other is Scyther.

Origin

Slowpoke may be based on a giant salamander, and its marine nature, shape and association with shellfish also suggests a real-world otter. It also resembles a hippopotamus with leucism, which causes their skin to turn pink.

Name origin

A slowpoke is simply a term for someone who is slow. It can be also a combination of slow and poke (an abbreviation of Pokémon). The yado in Yadon may be from 宿借り yadokari, hermit crab. Alternatively, it may also be derived from 宿主 yadonushi, (parasitic) host. Also, 鈍感 donkan means thickheaded or stolid, and 鈍 don means slow, dull, or stupid.

In other languages

Language Name Name Origin German Flegmon Derived from phlegmatisch and Monster. French Ramoloss Probably from ramolli and molosse. Korean 야돈 Yadon Chinese (Mandarin) 呆呆獸 Dāi Dāi Shòu Literally "Slow-witted creature". Chinese (Cantonese) 小呆獸 Literally "little slow-witted creature".
