Brrr, it's getting chilly here with Galarian Slowking's presence in the OU tier. With a great defensive typing. incredible Special Defense, and a great ability in Regenerator, it can switch into major threats such as Enamorus and Zapdos throughout a game. These great traits combined with Chilly Reception allow for it to serve as an incredible defensive pivot, able to take hits from the aforementioned Pokemon and bring its teammates in safely. Thunder Wave allows Galarian Slowking to cripple speedier threats such as Iron Valiant and Sneasler, along with Kingambit, which can comfortably switch into Galarian Slowking otherwise. Crippling these threats also prevents sweeps when they use Tera. Heavy-Duty Boots allows Galarian Slowking to pivot more effectively by avoiding entry hazard chip. Tera Grass removes its Ground weakness for a better matchup against Great Tusk; alternatively, Tera Water provides Galarian Slowking with a handful of resistances to better check Volcanion and Walking Wake. Ice Body Baxcalibur is a phenomenal teammate that takes advantage of Ting-Lu and appreciates Galarian Slowking bringing it in safely with Chilly Reception and setting up snow for it. Great Tusk appreciates Galarian Slowking's ability to take on special attackers like Enamorus and alleviates pressure put on Galarian Slowking by taking on Sneasler and Cinderace.
