Even Galarian Slowpoke and Slowbro show brief moments of extreme lucidity and intelligence due to the toxins affecting them.
It's all but confirmed Slowpoke is actually really smart in a sense, but it's psychic perception is so vast that it's own body can barely process it, which causes Slowpoke to always be spaced out, the Shellder that bites it gives it a bit of lucidity due to the pain and the toxins taking the Slow family out of their stupor and giving them focus, in Galarian Slowking's case, the Shellder somehow connects with Glowking's mind and becomes the controlling entity.
