Best Slowbro Builds in Pokemon Champions

Slowbro has two main builds in Pokemon Champions. The bulky Regenerator build is the safest option, while the setup build can become a late-game win condition.

Build 1: Bulky Regenerator Pivot

This is the main Slowbro build. It uses bulk and Regenerator to keep coming back while applying Water and Psychic-type pressure.

Item Sitrus Berry or Rocky Helmet
Ability Regenerator
Nature Bold, +Defense and -Attack
Moves Scald, Psychic, Slack Off, Protect
Stat Point Spread HP: 32 / Defense: 24 / Sp. Atk: 6

Build 2: Calm Mind Tank

This version lets Slowbro become harder to remove over time. Use it when your team can protect Slowbro long enough to set up.

Item Leftovers
Ability Own Tempo or Regenerator
Nature Bold, +Defense and -Attack
Moves Scald, Psychic, Calm Mind, Slack Off
Stat Point Spread HP: 30 / Defense: 20 / Sp. Def: 12

Best Items for Slowbro

Sitrus Berry is the best general item because it gives Slowbro immediate recovery when it takes heavy damage.

Rocky Helmet punishes contact attackers, while Leftovers fits slower setup builds.

Best Pokemon to Pair with Slowbro

Slowbro works best with Pokemon that cover its weaknesses, support its preferred speed control or help it find safer turns.

Clefable

Redirects attacks and supports Slowbro setup turns.

Machamp

Pressures Dark and Steel-type Pokemon that bother Slowbro.

Arcanine

Adds Intimidate support and helps against Grass-type threats.

What Slowbro Is Good Against

Slowbro is strong against physical attackers, Fire, Fighting, Poison and Ground-type Pokemon. It is especially useful when teams need a bulky pivot.

Scald pressure also makes physical attackers think twice before attacking into Slowbro.

Slowbro is threatened by Electric, Grass, Bug, Ghost and Dark-type damage. Special attackers can also break through it more easily than physical attackers.

Jolteon

Fast Electric-type attacker that threatens Slowbro immediately.
