You could just trade the item to evolve it with someone who has the DLC.

G-Slowking is more intelligent than Alakazam, which has a 5000 IQ.
I'd be surprised if it couldn't learn just about everything.

Yeah but its better offensively due to the higher special attack and being immune to poison. There's a reason Glowking uses all sorts of attacks with AV but Slowking sticks to HDB Teleport sets.

You get a free Galarian Slowpoke even without the DLC I believe, you can just trade to have someone evolve for you or just have them give you one

Don't see why it wouldn't. Will be even better once Spectrier is gone in a couple of days. People have also started experimenting with non-AV sets.

100/90/70 Isn't frail, it's the fact that Poison/Psychic is a shitty defensive typing all things considered. G-Slowking gets by with it's strong Future Sights and general coverage off of a 110 base Sp.Atk, and it's equal Sp.Def means it gets a lot of leeway to invest in its lacking Defense when running AV. Whereas G-Slowbro HAS to run AV to even get respectable bulk on that side for it's typing and speed, and the unfortunately wasted stats in Attack to justify its shitty unreliable signature move means less flexibility when investing elsewhere.

Just double-checked, and I got the defensive stat spread wrong (its 95/95/70) but the general sentiment still stands

100/90/70 is good, but not good enough. The points invested into both attacking stats are kinda wasted since it'll always just use one.
Shell Side Arm should've always scaled with one attacking stat, but targeted either the opponent's physical or special defense (whichever one is lower).

Yes. And now you get an additional advantage by paying more than other people did.

Well, he's kind of right. Slowking pretty much has Slowbro's movepool plus Dragon Tail.

By that logic Pokemon became pay-to-win when DP made certain pokemin only available through other games, then Platinum introduced even more forms and exclusives.
