Oh man... I can't believe it... Slowking is going to be awesome!

Sorry... sorry... I couldn't help myself with that...

But seriously... Mega Slowbro I think is the silliest looking Mega Evolution yet...

Mega Slowbro's look may be...out of the ordinary, but he will make a very staunch defender thanks to his high Defense, his access to the move Amnesia, and his Ability Shell Armor.

please. its beyond stupid. for one thing. its still slow as hell so it will be spending more time healing instead of bosting . furthermore shell armor is kinda useless if its facing an opponent that have the mold breaker ability. but most importantly its design is beyond stupid. i have seen better design made by fans of youtube than this crap.

I actually like it's design. The entire Slowpoke evolutionary line, in terms of design, is a joke anyways. Shellder bites its tail and it gains the ability to walk upright. Shellder bites its head and now it's incredibly smart.

Maybe when Shellder consumes it's body, it'll turn into a bishounen/bishoujo.

It's so lazy it's funny. I love how stupid it looks, it suits it well. Don't like the Shell Armour ability, I'd rather keep Regenerator and a free slot for a Mega Evolution as Slobro is already powerful on its own.

My favorite Pokemon, and the dumbest looking Mega. Regenerator is a better ability, and lack of held Leftovers make it questionable. I'll stick with the regular version and let another Mega on my team

exactly my point. it would have been better off if it got that ability or probably filter to help with its defenses. though slowking should have gotten the adaptability ability as its hidden ability.
