Because you need to meme it into being useful.
That being said, I have wrecked a lot of people with Protean Skill swap from Kecleon.

How it would actually go with any half decent opponent who actually has a brain is that the Slaking would get hit with Fake Out immediately, Pyukumuku would get Taunted immediately, and your whole incredibly obvious gimmick strategy goes to shit fast

Knowing what the opponent is going to do =/= winning.

Just because they anticipate Slaking carnage doesn't mean they can do shit to stop it.

I can guarantee you any non-retard who's playing VGC will smell your shitty gimmick strategy a mile away as soon as the team comes up and immediately stop it the moment you try to carry it out.

I'm not saying Slaking is an insta-win, but Slaking does fuck at lot of teams up.

Z moves go through protect so it's a guaranteed kill turn one. Then you just out damage and out tank and should be able to KO out at least 1 more.

Even if you consider Pyu useless, it's still a 2 for 2.

Protect is everywhere in doubles and Pyukumuku is dead weight. And Slaking is not powerful enough to OHKO everything plus Intimidate is also pretty common.

Another might though, but Slaking'll need to waste a slot for Pursuit.

Cofagrigus uses physical attack and suicides.
Slaking comes in.
Slaking used Pursuit.

Slaking Need a MEGA SLAKING

Ability : Vital Spirit
HP : 150
Attack : 160
Defense : 130
Sp Attack : 95
Sp Defense : 105
Speed : 110

Here, only 80 stat rise but it basically guaranteed Mega Slaking to be kicked upward to Uber Tier, still, it basically made a gimmick pokemon into equal rival of Arceus... Or just made Arceus his bitch...

Broken as fuck, either give him a decent ability and no stat boost or keep truant and give him a ridicolously massive boost like +40 to all five stats

Hmm, maybe giving Slaking Vigoroth's ability as his Mega ability, while merely giving modest 30 raise on Special Defense (and nothing else), would do the trick.

Basically Physical counterpart of most Uber Legendaries in manageable 700 stat. Still a Normal type and now cannot reliably slack off or use leftovers. Just a really bulky physical attacker.

Not as broken as the other Mega Slaking suggestions, wall carrying Will O Wisp will make short work of him.
