That REALLY BIG sloth pokemon.. Should it even be used?

That would be Nice. Then get out a alakazam with skill swap and your set! And if you want it would be good to get him to have wander guard then he would be pretty much invincible.

Only in double battles >_> I've seen computer players in Pokemon Colosseum lay out the Skill Swapping strategy, but that Slaking had Shadow Ball XD

I found a good way to rid Slaking of Traunt is that one attack Weepinbell, Shuckle, and a few other Pokemon learn... Gastro Acid, it gets rid of the Pokemon's ability. I don't quite know which Pokemon it'd work best with, but a Focus Sash might want to be held just in case the Pokemon that's supposed to execute the move isn't so fast and is fragile.

The way I can see it Victreebel, Swalot, Shuckle, or your best bet it would seem, Craydily would work best using the move... I've only seen one person pull this off and they used Shuckle, so I'm not really sure I haven't tried it out myself but I imagine with Slaking the ridence of Traunt is welcome.

But the Alakazam shifted it's Truant to my Metagross of fury! =(

If you're gonna use the skill swap strategy, don't do it with alakazam...it might not survive to pull it off! For the record, you can't skill swap wonder guard onto something :/

It'd be funny if you could Skill Swap Wonder Guard onto Spiritomb.

Good luck with that :/

The thing I love about slaking is focus punch...risky a little, but with a bit of prediction you are hammering forry and skarm HARD.

That's what I use, Focus Punch Slaking. Does he nessacarily need Sub for it to be effective?

With traunt? Heck no! Sub is horrible on it actually.

It needs prediction is what it needs...
