Slaking will take high damage from a single Espy's Psychic. Then it becomes easy to kill. Slaking's Truant weakens it signifigantly, making Espy able to get two shots off.
However, if you will use Slaking, this might help.
Use Slaking's CB Hyper Beam, because Slaking with max ATK coupled with STAB and 150 power will eliminate almost everything. And the delay does not affect Slaking, as Truant would already delay Slaking anyway.
The best use for Slaking is in 2v2 with a partner that knows Skill Swap. Slaking then needs Leftovers (NOT A CB) and a full attacking set for tactical flexibility. Especially strong is the partner knows Follow Me because Slaking only takes an attack every other turn.

I thought you were a top tier Netbattler who knew everything... Hyper Beam does hurt slaking bcuz slaking is a hit and run pokemon. If you hyper beam you cannot switch out. Everyone knows that...
And tbh Espeon is not even a match for Slaking as Return can ohko one with limited Defence EVs. Double-Edge which is also standard can ohko it. Shadow ball is a sure OHKO as well... Putting up Espeon vs Slaking is extremely Nubbish because Espeon needs 2 CMs to OHKO CBSlaking with Psychic... And that isnt going to happen
And a very good trainer would Skill Swap Pure Power to slaking in 2vs2 so that Slaking could become virtually unbeatable
