Slakoth

() is a -type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Slakoth has pale brown, cream-colored fur, two toes on its feet, lazy eyes, a small tuft of fur on the top of its head, a lazy smile, a pig-like nose, two dark brown stripes on its back and two small tufts of fur on its back.
=== Behavior ===
Slakoth sleep for 20 hours a day, only waking up to eat or adjust their positions. Due to their lack of motion, however, they don't need to consume much; in fact, Slakoth only eat about 3 leaves a day on average before resting again. 
Generally, Slakoth never change the locations of their nests until they evolve. However, they have been known to travel surprisingly great distances by floating down rivers on logs. Their hearts beat only once a minute, even when potentially in danger. Curiously, despite appearing like sitting ducks, wild Slakoth are rarely ever attacked. Those who see Slakoth loafing around begin to feel drowsy themselves, losing the willpower to attack them.
Slakoth live in large groups numbering over a hundred. Such troops are protected by troops of Vigoroth and are centered around a single Slaking.
===Natural abilities===
In the event that they do get injured, Slakoth can heal themselves by using Slack Off. Their claws allow them to climb trees with ease; however, they more commonly use them to dig into branches to prevent themselves from falling off while dozing.
==Evolution==
Slakoth evolves into Vigoroth at level 18. It then evolves into Slaking at level 36.

==Trivia==
*When asked in an interview behind the inspiration of Slaking and its evolutionary family, Game Freak staff simply stated that Slakoth went from "a lazy sloth to become motivated, but then decided that it wasn't worth it and went for slacking off instead".
===Origin===
Slakoth appears to be based on a two-toed sloth and plays off of how sloths are often slow-moving.
===Etymology===
Slakoth may come from slack, sloth, and slack off.
