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.

Biology

Physiology

A Snorlax's body is composed of mostly its belly, as it only wakes up to eat and seldom exercises. Its head is also big, and it has two pointed teeth sticking out. Its feet are extremely big compared to most Pokémon, so as to provide balance. Its arms are short, however, they are long enough for Snorlax to reach out, grab its lunch and put it in its mouth. Snorlax's big belly provides huge amounts of defense, thus, not many predators bother hunting it.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Behavior

Snorlax spend the majority of their time sleeping, surviving off of their stored up fat. Many Snorlax only awaken once a month, and that is so they can find more food. A hungry Snorlax isn't satisfied until it consumes 900 pounds of food, and then it goes back to sleep. If one ever sees a sleeping Snorlax, he or she should not wake it up, because these Pokémon become very grumpy if their peaceful dreams become interrupted. Several Psychic Pokémon using Dream Eater find this out the hard way.

Habitat

File:Mountain.gif
Mountain Pokémon

Snorlax are often in mountains and forests. However, they sometimes wander into towns and streets and sleep there.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Snorlax will eat anything and everything that is edible, they aren't really very picky. Upon finding something new on its territory, a resident Snorlax will put it in its mouth to see if it's something that can be eaten. Snorlax are fond of large, thorny vines as a snack item.

In the anime

File:AG149 107.jpeg
Ash's Snorlax using Ice Punch

Snorlax first appeared in Wake up Snorlax. This Snorlax was blocking the water flow to a small village.

In Snack Attack!, a Snorlax was eating the grapefuits of the Grapefuit Islands. Ash managed to capture it near the end of the episode. After the adventures in the Orange Islands, Ash's Snorlax spent most of its time at Professor Oak's lab.

In Lights, Camerupt, Action, a Snorlax was a sheriff in a western-themed Pokémon movie.

In The Garden of Eatin', another Snorlax was causing trouble for a man named Marcell by eating the bananas in his Slakoth Banana Garden. Marcell's newly evolved Vigoroth defeated the Snorlax, allowing him to capture it. Afterwards, Marcell made an attraction around his new Snorlax: a relaxation room.

A Snorlax also appeared near the end of Destiny Deoxys, evolving from Munchlax in order to stay afloat during a 'flood' of malfunctioning robots.

In Queen of the Serpentine, a Snorlax made a cameo as one of Lucy's pets.

Training Daze featured a red Snorlax which Jessie, James and Meowth, while competing with Butch, Cassidy and Raticate, were sent to steal in order to become official Team Rocket field agents. The Snorlax turned out to be Viper, the Team Rocket Academy Drill Sergeant, in disguise.

In the manga

Red caught a Snorlax on Cycling Road.

In the TCG

Other appearances

File:Snorlax Brawl.jpg
Snorlax in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Melee

When released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will fly up into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a Body Slam that sends any opponent underneath flying.

Snorlax is also a Pokéfloat. It is in its sleeping form and so fighting occurs on its head and belly.

Trophy information

Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 888 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weighing in at over 1,000 pounds.


Super Smash Bros. Brawl

After being released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will fly up into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a Body Slam that sends any opponent underneath flying.

Game data

NPC appearances

  • Pokémon Ranger: Snorlax will be seen sleeping throughout the game, effectively cutting off certain areas until later on. It will eventually remain in a cave in the Sekra Mountain Range. Once the rest of the Ranger Browser has been completed, it will wake up and can be captured.

Trivia

  • Until Generation III, Snorlax was the heaviest Pokémon. It was then passed up by both Metagross and Groudon. In Generation IV, both Dialga and Giratina are heavier than it as well, setting it back to its present state of the fifth-heaviest Pokémon known.
  • It is believed by many that Snorlax and Munchlax were inspired loosely on the titular character from the anime film My Neighbor Totoro.
  • Snorlax has the fifth highest base HP of all Pokémon, after Blissey, Chansey, Wobbuffet, and Wailord, in that order.

Origin

It may be loosely based on a Totoro or perhaps hibernating bears or Teddy bears

Name origin

Snorlax's name is a combination of snore and lax. The lax in its name might also come from relax.

In other languages

  • German: Relaxo - Relax with an "o" at the end.
  • French: Ronflex - Ronfler means snore.
  • Korean: 잠만보 Jammanbo
  • Chinese: 卡比兽
