Slowpoke is a ranged defender, whose basic attack is boosted every third use lower sthe opponent’s special defense for a short period of time. It has a choice of two moves, Slack Off and Water Gun. The first allows Slowpoke to recover HP. The other deals damage and can be charged for more damage and range. Opponents struck by this attack get slowed down. At level 4, Slowpoke evolves, and Water Gun gets replaced with Scald or Surf. Scald is a more powerful version of Water Gun but also burns the opponent. Surf works similar to Blastoise’s Surf. At level 6, Slack Off gets replaced with Telekinesis or Amnesia. The first makes the opponent unable to act for a short period of time (but you are unable to act either). If used a second time, it will bring the opponent closer to you. The other increases your defenses as well as the power of your other move once after using it. At level 9, Slowbro learns its Unite Move Slowbeam. This binds a single Pokemon, giving them a shield during and making them unstoppable for a short period afterwards. At level 11, Scald has and Surf have more range. At level 13, Amnesia increases Slowbro’s special attack as well and Telekinesis will fire more quickly and reach farther. This character’s ability is Oblivious, which makes it store lost HP for a short time. Whenever it lands a move, it recovers some of that HP, and lowers the opponent’s special defense briefly.
