Is Slaking 83 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 120 damage attack that needs 4 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.

Where this sits once the archive is cut by damage instead

The bars above cut the archive by what an attack asks for. Cut the same archive by what an attack prints and the groups come out differently — the damage ranges on record are gathered on one page, which is where a figure like 120 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

What does being a Colorless card do for Slaking 83?

Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.

Deals double to this card 1,884 Fighting cards carry that type A Fighting attack printed at 75 damage is enough to remove this card in one turn.

What knocks out Slaking 83 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Why this card was picked to stand opposite

Of the 651 cards in the archive that can remove Slaking 83 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 80 printed damage against a bar of 75. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

What is Slaking as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Slaking 83 is one print of Slaking. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.

Slaking has been printed 17 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

Legality is read from the print rather than from the Pokémon, so an older copy of the same Pokémon is a different card for tournament purposes.

What has to be in play before Slaking 83 can be?

Slaking evolves from Vigoroth, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

+20 HP · +10 damage

Vigoroth13 prints on record · EX Power Keepers

Slakoth → Vigoroth → Slaking

This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Vigoroth.
The line runs 3 stages, so the first card has to be in play 2 turns before this one can be.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (180 HP). The note beside each bar is the hardest attack printed at that stage.

Every print of a stage is counted, not just the one shown in the chain above, so the bar is the ceiling that stage has reached rather than one card from it.

Back to summary

Is this the strongest Slaking print, and can the older ones still be played?

17 prints carry this name in the archive, and 15 of them are laid out below. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.

Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (340 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

Slaking 83 in depth — what these figures add up to

Three readings of the same card, side by side: what it costs to get going, where it sits among the cards it will be compared with, and what takes it off the field.

What it asks a deck for

Its hardest attack, Knuckle Sandwich, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 30 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 4 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
It cannot start the game in play — Vigoroth has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 3,166 of 17,290

Colorless cardsNo. 278 of 2,171

Stage 2 cardsNo. 624 of 1,749

Furious FistsNo. 14 of 94

What actually removes it

A Fighting attack printed at 75 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 150 HP.
655 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 113 cards in one attack.

Slaking 83 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Slaking 83?

Slaking 83 has 150 HP and a Fighting weakness at ×2, so a Fighting attack printed at 75 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 150.

What is the strongest attack on Slaking 83?

Knuckle Sandwich, printed at 120 damage for 4 Energy — 30 damage per Energy card. Discard an Energy attached to this Pokémon.

What is the retreat cost of Slaking 83?

4 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

Can an older Slaking print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 15 prints listed on this page, 4 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

What does Slaking evolve from?

Vigoroth. It cannot be played straight from your hand onto an empty spot — the earlier stage has to be in play first.

Can Slaking 83 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited and Expanded play. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Slaking 83 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
