Salazzle naturally resists Steel-type attacks thanks to her typing, so that means she already takes little damage from Heavy Slam. I actually had my Salazzle vs. a Celesteela during a tournament, and she absolutely ruined that UB's day. Even though Celesteela is over 2000 pounds and Salazzle is only about 49 pounds, Heavy Slam did almost nothing. I'm curious about how much the Totem-size Salazzle weighs, just to see how much different the damage calculation would've been.
You can bring Totem-size Pokemon in the bank, use them in Sun/Moon, and bring them back, and they'll maintain their size. This goes strictly for the ones that were introduced in the original; the new Totem mons can't go to the older games because their scaled models don't exist.
