Slaking (Japanese: ケッキング Kekking; German: Letarking; French: Monaflemit) is a Normal-type Pokémon.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Emerald

Hordes of Slaking gather around trees when fruits come into season. They wait around patiently for ripened fruits to fall out of the trees.

Name origin

Slaking's name is a combination of slack off, meaning to loaf around, and king. Its Japanese name is a combination of 樹懶 namakemono, sloth, and king.

It appears to draw inspiration from sloths and some form of ape.
