Why not Slowking?
 
OK, so I've battled about 5 people on wifi with a Slowbro. Yes it's quite a good pokemon, but why don't you use Slowking? It's not that hard to trade it with a King's rock is it? It has better stats than a Slowbro, so whhy not use it? Which do you prefer?

actually they both have different functions.

Slowbro: physical wall
Slow king: special wall

Slowking has access to curse and nasty plot
Slowbro has access to calm mind.

Both are used for different things so its pretty much a matter of what you need it for

I personally like slowking better than slobro and was also wondering why more people use Slobro. I understand what you people are saying, but how come you never really see and slowkings online? Do people like Physical walls more?
