Snorlax (Japanese: カビゴン Kabigon) is a Normal-type Pokémon. In the Generation I and II games, as well as Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, wild Snorlax can be found sleeping in inconvenient locations throughout Kanto. In order to catch one, a trainer must first awaken it with music from either a Poké Flute or PokéGear.
Snorlax comes with one of two Abilities: Immunity, which protects the Pokémon from being poisoned; or Thick Fat, which cuts damage from Fire- and Ice-type moves in half.
