[SET COMMENTS]
Galarian Slowking is one of the best physically defensive pivots in Ubers UU, checking threats like Zacian and Sneasler with its wide support movepool and having the coveted combination of Future Sight and a pivoting move in Chilly Reception. Sludge Bomb allows Galarian Slowking to hit Fairy-types like Zacian and Clefable for good damage while also fishing for poison on Pokemon like Arceus formes. Future Sight assists greatly in breaking stall and makes wallbreakers like Kyurem-W more threatening. Flamethrower hits Steel-types like Magearna and Solgaleo that Sludge Bomb cannot. Slack Off allows Galarian Slowking to recover HP without switching out, letting it poison stall Pokemon like Zacian and Palkia-O and offset entry hazard damage if its Heavy-Duty Boots gets removed by Knock Off. Toxic allows Galarian Slowking to put switch-ins like Arceus formes and Mewtwo on a timer, whereas Toxic Spikes can support its team by spreading status, forcing foes to take passive damage, and poisoning Substitute users like Palkia-O. Tera Water allows Galarian Slowking to resist Palafin's Water-type attacks and handle Palkia-O better; it also removes its Ground-type weakness, making it better at handling Landorus-T. Alternatively, Tera Grass makes Galarian Slowking resistant to Ground- and Water-type attacks, meaning it still handles Palafin and Palkia-O well and is better into Landorus-T, at the cost of being weak to Arceus-Poison. Lastly, Tera Fairy allows Galarian Slowking to shed its Dark-type weakness, letting it take Knock Off and Kowtow Cleave from Great Tusk and Kingambit in a pinch. Galarian Slowking pairs well with Pokemon that struggle to switch in safely, such as Kyurem-W and Chi-Yu, as it can slowly pivot them in. Galarian Slowking is relatively passive and is particularly weak to Mewtwo, Deoxys, and Arceus-Dark, so it forms a very strong core with Arceus-Dark and Zacian, which can check those three foes.

Galarian Slowking is one of the best physically defensive pivots in Ubers UU with its wide support movepool and access to the coveted Future Sight in conjunction with Chilly Reception combination of Future Sight and a pivoting move in Chilly Reception. Sludge Bomb allows Galarian Slowking to hit Fairy-types like Zacian and Clefable for big damage, while also fishing for poisons on Pokemon like Arceus. Future Sight assists greatly in breaking stall, alongside making wallbreakers like Kyurem-W more threatening.

Alternatively, Tera Grass makes you resistant to Ground and Water, meaning you still handle Palafin-H and Palkia-Origin well, while being better into Landorus, at the cost of being weak to Arceus-Poison Kyurem-W and Chi-Yu. Lastly, Tera Fairy allows Slowking-Galar to shed its Dark Type weakness, flipping the matchup on Chi-Yu and Arceus-Dark. Slowking-Galar pairs well with partners that struggle to switch in safely, such as Kyurem-White and Chi-Yu, as it can keep them safe by slow pivoting. However, Slowking-Galar is relatively passive, and is particularly weak to Mewtwo, Deoxys and Arceus-Dark, so it forms a very strong core with Arceus-Dark and Zacian, who checks can check those three.

Galarian Slowking is one of the best physically defensive pivots (Mention what it checks with its type combo like Crunchless Zac, Sneas, or whatever) in Ubers UU with its wide support movepool and access to the coveted combination of Future Sight and a pivoting move in Chilly Reception. Sludge Bomb allows Galarian Slowking to hit Fairy-types like Zacian and Clefable for big good (its rly not that much) damage, while also fishing for poisons on Pokemon like Arceus. Future Sight assists greatly in breaking stall, alongside making wallbreakers like Kyurem-W more threatening. Flamethrower hits Steel-types like Magearna and Solgaleo that Sludge Bomb cannot. (Mention why you would ever want Slack Off, since it gives you reliable recovery without needing to switch or i WILL make you cut it.) Toxic allows you to cripple switch-ins like Arceus formes and Mewtwo, putting them on a timer, whereas Toxic Spikes can support your its team by spreading status and forcing passive damage (and allowing it to poison sub users like Palk-O). Tera Water allows Galarian Slowking to resist Palafin and handle Palkia-O better, while shedding its Ground-type weakness, making it better at handling Landorus-T. Alternatively, Tera Grass makes you Galarian Slowking resistant to Ground- and Water-type attacks, meaning you it still handle Palafin and Palkia-Origin well, while being better into Landorus-T, at the cost of being weak to Kyurem-W and Chi-Yu (Wouldnt it make more sense to mention stuff like Arc Poison or thing who is actually a Physical Attacker). Lastly, Tera Fairy allows Slowking-Galar Galarian Slowking to shed its Dark Type Dark-type weakness, flipping the matchup on Chi-Yu and Arceus-Dark (Same as before).
