Who is Slowking?

Slowking, which was introduced in the 2nd Generation of Pokémon, is the “Royal” Pokémon which is an alternate evolution from the “Dopey” Pokémon, Slowpoke.

You can evolve Slowpoke to a Slowking easily. Secure a King's Rock from one of the Delibird Presents shops in Mesagoza for 10,000 Poké Dollars. Take note that Delibird Presents shops only become active once you have successfully acquired four gym badges. If you've accomplished that task, all you need to do is to head over to Academy City and buy one.
