Don't Be Fooled hints and tips for Pokemon Ruby

Don't Be Fooled

I'm just going to say, don't be fooled by Slakoths. They may only be able to attack every other turn, but they evolve into one of the strongest Pokemon.

You find Slakoths in the Petalburg Woods. But they are very hard to find. But when you do come across one, be sure to catch it. Its not very hard to catch. Once you do catch it, train it. But be patient!!! It may take forever to train with the special ability of Traunt, but once it evolves, it will be well worth it.

If I am not mistaken, Slakoth evolves at lv.18. Once you get him to evolve into a Vigoroth, you will be happy to know that he drops the Traunt ability and learns Vital Spirit (meaning he can't be put to sleep.) Train Vigoroth to lv.36, the level in which he evolves into a Slaking.

Once Vigoroth evolves into a Slaking, he gets abot 40 extra HP, but he gets the Traunt ability back. I now have a Slaking at level 51 on my way to the Pokemon League, and he has not been beaten yet. If you are trying to raise a Slaking, here are the attacks I reccomend that he learns: Yawn, Slash, Slack Off, and an attack of your choice (mine knows cut). Trust me, if he knows Slack Off, he will be so annoying. Once the opponent takes 12 years to weaken Slaking, and he uses Slack Off, he will regain a bunch of health.

Not only does Slaking have ALOT of HP, he also has a great attack, defense, special attack, and some speed.

The point of all of this is that you don't be fooled by th Traunt ability. Slaking may be lazy, but he is a force to be reconed with.

Sorry if this is confusing...

Hope I helped!
