Slaking (Japanese: ケッキング Kekking) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves from Vigoroth starting at level 36. It is the final form of Slakoth.
Biology
Slaking is a large, bulky, ape-like bipedal Pokémon. Most of its shaggy fur is brown, along with the semi-circle patterning under its eyes. Its face, chest, hands, and feet are lighter in color. Its brows are thick and jutting, and it has a large, pink, pig-like nose. Around its neck is a white collar of fur that extends over the top of its head before ending in a small tuft. It has large, five-fingered hands and two-toed feet.
During most of the day, Slaking lolls around and sleeps. It is considered the laziest Pokémon, but even when it is lounging it's saving energy. It can exert a lot of power by releasing built-up energy all at once, and is said to be feared for its immense strength. In Generation III, Slack Off was its signature move. Slaking lives in tropical forests, where it feeds on grass and ripened fruit that falls from trees. It only moves around when there is no more food within reach for it to eat.

Norman's signature Pokémon is a Slaking, who first appeared in Brushing Past Breloom. Although it would seem that his Ability would be of a major hindrance, he shows that by having a Spinda tag alongside him and use Skill Swap in times of need, his impressive strength and speed would be wielded to their maximum. Additionally, the move Bulk Up allows him to bolster his stats even more.

Trivia
- Slaking has several similarities to Regigigas. They are both Normal types, have hindering Abilities (Truant and Slow Start), have the highest base Attack stat of all Normal-type Pokémon, and have the same base stat totals.
- A pre-alpha sketch from the development of Capsule Monsters depicts a Pokémon that bears a slight resemblance to Slaking.
- Slaking has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon that are not Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, or Mega Evolutions.
Origin
Slaking appears to draw inspiration from sloths. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a Megatherium, also known as the giant ground sloth; however, it more closely resembles a gorilla.
Due to its baldness, pink nose, and white fur on its head and around its neck, Slaking could also draw inspiration from an elderly man.
Name origin
Slaking may be a combination of slacking and king.
Kekking may be a combination of 欠勤 kekkin (absence from work) and king.
