Its Ability

Lazy

As long as Slaking is your Active Pokémon, your opponent's Pokémon can't use any Poké-Powers.

Its attacks

Critical Move

100

Discard a basic Energy card attached to Slaking or this attack does nothing. Slaking can't attack during your next turn.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

A strength
120 HP, and nothing in Ruby & Sapphire goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.
A strength
Critical Move hits for 100 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Ruby & Sapphire hits harder for that price.
A strength
It has an Ability, Lazy. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
Keep in mind
Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.
Keep in mind
None of the 8,067 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.
Keep in mind
It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Vigoroth to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.
Keep in mind
Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 8,067 tournament lists we have read, 1,724 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
