Pokemon Sword and Shield<\/em><\/strong> players have finally been given more than a glimpse at the upcoming Crown Tundra DLC expansion pass. Among other thrilling updates, Galarian Slowpoke’s alternate evolution, Galaran Slowking,\u00a0has\u00a0finally been revealed.<\/p>\n

New Galarian Pokemon, like Galarian Slowpoke, were some\u00a0of the first bits of news to excite\u00a0gamers when the Isle of Armor\/Crown Tundra\u00a0expansions\u00a0were initially announced. With Slowpoke already having been updated in Johto (when Slowking was introduced), many fans were surprised to see the lackadaisical Water\/Psychic-type Pokemon receive a new form in Pokemon Sword<\/em><\/a>\u00a0and Shield<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, Galarian Slowpoke was a free gift to all players<\/a> in anticipation of the game’s DLC packs. While Galarian Slowbro was later revealed as Isle of Armor’s release approached, there was\u00a0a lack of official word regarding Slowpoke’s other evolution, the shaman-like Slowking. Now Slowpoke-lovers can rest assured that the lazy Pokemon’s alternate form is getting the full Galarian treatment as well.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Like its cousin Galarian Slowbro, Galarian Slowking is a Poison\/Psychic-type Pokemon<\/a>.\u00a0As per its official description, Galarian Slowking is “a hexpert that communicates through strange incantations.” In short, it seems that these Pokemon result\u00a0when a Shellder bites onto a Slowpoke’s head,\u00a0and triggers a reaction between its brain chemicals and the spices in its body. This chemical reaction not only imbues\u00a0Slowpoke with the Poison-type as it evolves,\u00a0but also causes Shellder’s intelligence to skyrocket, which allows it psychic abilities.<\/p>\n

Aside from being goofily creepy, Galarian Slowking introduces several new features. Its ability, Curious Medicine, is entirely new to the series, as is its signature move: Eerie Spell. Eerie Spell is a Psychic-type special move that damages opponents while also siphoning 3 PP from the last move they used in battle. Curious Medicine, on the other hand, will\u00a0reset\u00a0allies’ stat-changes\u00a0whenever Galarian Slowking (or another Pokemon with that ability) enters the battle. These two new maneuvers will surely help spice things up in battle, and offer a nice contrast to Galarian Slowbro’s offensive signature move<\/a>, Shell Side Arm.<\/p>\n

Bearing in mind incoming new items, like the Ability Patch, and other DLC-additions, like Max Soup, players will have a good degree of flexibility once the new DLC arrives. Whereas Pokemon of the past couldn’t simply swap abilities, or\u00a0earn\u00a0the ability to reach their Gigantamax form, Pokemon today\u00a0have access to valuable attribute-altering items, for example. This means that Pokemon Trainers won’t necessarily have to abandon old beloved Pokemon as the expansions arrive: there are ways to catch up. Unfortunately,\u00a0Kantonian Slowpoke can’t evolve into Galarian Slowking<\/a> (or Slowbro) though, so players\u00a0will still have to abandon old\u00a0Slowpokes in favor of their new yellow-armored relatives.<\/p>\n

Pokemon Sword and Shield<\/em><\/strong> is available now on Nintendo Switch. The Crown Tundra DLC will be available for purchase on October 22, 2020.<\/p>\n
