Intro: No Interruption - Hoodie Allen
Team:
pokepast.es/ff...
all these new pokemon with bloated stats and fancy abilities and signature moves can never stand up to the pure unga bunga power of the KING
the only thing unga bunga aboht slaking is those hairy, smooth, musky bawls that i bounce on with your father
Hail to the King
Unga bunga.🦍🦍
Well he's in singles so at least there's SOME creativity with the teams and not just:
Urshifu-W
Flutter Mane
Tornadus
Incineroar
Calyrex-Shadow
(Some other dumb-as-shit midmaxxed powercrept pokemon)
Ooga booga
Double Hurricane miss into Double Full Paralysis is crazy
I never run hurricane without rain lol
fr i kept saying "should've gone with overheat"
Once in roblox pokemon I was using altaria and the I missed sing 8 times and the opponent also used mirror move a couple times and missed 3 times as well. They didn't even do anything like sand attack.
The second match, the opponent got so salty that you were beating his Uber mons so he ran from the match 😂. GG brother
Typical early SV Chinese team with Ting-Lu teraing turn one, stack hazards, whirlwind, and let the rest of the team attack. I bet you it's a rental one too.
what I like to call the uber noober.
Or he realized he lost?
Truant turn: "I sleep"
Regular turn: "REAL SHIT"
In doubles with Entrainment: A S C E N D E D
One of my favorite combos back in the day was Venomoth Skill Swapping Tinted Lens onto Slaking.
Was also super fun with eviolite Yamask back when pursuit was a thing - Mummy King was GOATED in NU
Imagine medichan Skill Swapping with something like Regigigas or Slacking.
I think Medicham with skill swap is better cuz it applies pure power to Slaking which doubles its enormous attack. This works for Regigigas as well
@@user-qm4mb7ct3d only problem with this Is that it's gen 9 only
@@user-qm4mb7ct3d If showdown hackmons has taught me anything its that king and gigas are virtually the same mon with an almost nonexistent difference in bulk.
When I was 16 the Vans store asked me what animal I would be and I panicked and told them Slakoth so I could just chill. Obviously didn’t get the job…
Probably cause you didn't say an animal

@@slipinslider meant to say sloth but wouldn’t have been much better..
@@PabloblartLmaoo!! If you did that at a GameStop you'd probably be hired as their manager
no employer wants to employ someone who identifies with the laziest animal…
A snorlax vs slaking fight irl. Would be bananas to watch
balls
Would be so bananas bro
Lol I think Slaking would win but I would rather sit and chill with them both.
Let ma boy slowbro join the party as well
the old, broken snorlax claps ez, but the newer stuff has got a lot less of a chance.
slaking is pokemons one punch man
so stupid strong that he doesnt draw enjoyment off of battles anymore
which manifests in the truant ability

Holy shit TH-cam just recommended this out of the blue, havent watched you in years and hearing that intro was super nostalgic ❤️ I'm really happy you're still making content and cant wait to binge a bunch more!
He’s been popping off the last few months
This reeks of a bot comment I don't trust this
@@InsertFunnyThingHeremaybe, I’m fairness though they made their account 9 years ago, so I doubt it
@@beelaxquay I've heard that some bots are just hacked accounts or accounts that got quite literally sold out (because TH-cam apparently bans older accounts less). Though this comment isn't really advertising anything so yeah almost definitely not a bot my bad, it was just sorta suspicious because this account has no other comments on this channel nor a public subscription to it while claiming to be a fan
@@InsertFunnyThingHere Nah not a bot! I used to watch Haydunn a bunch before and got into playing a bunch of Pokemon hacks like Pokemon Glazed after I watched him play it. Got my friends into doing a bunch of Pokemon battles too 😁 Eventually we all kinda just stopped playing but Pokemon content always hits home for me
these bots def not slaking
Son I just noticed them just now to see who else was here early and Jesus 😭
I love seeing Slaking one-shot Pokemon over and over again
Shame on you WinterWesker for running from that game. Dude had an Urshifu and a Stone Ogerpon in the back. Chien-po while paralyzed could still do some work with sucker punch. That's what people who spam broken pokemon be doing when they smell a potential loss 😂😂... after getting a crit too! Good game haydunn ❤✌️
This video got me thinking… what if you built a team around slaking that consisted mostly of regenerator Pokémon who could pivot in some way. Cyclizar with shed tail would go hard here. Chilly reception slowking too. Something hard hitting with eject pack. Maybe a red card Pokémon. Obviously some hazard control, maybe a sticky webber. I’m not good enough at Pokémon yet to know if something like this would work, but what do people think? What would a team like that look like? Haydunn, care to take a crack at it?
Slaking is my second favourite normal type next to dubwool so a team around keeping him alive would be amazing. I always believe that if slaking got the move feint his entire competitive useage would shoot up significantly as stab feint would bust open protect stalling him and now the game would become will he attack or feint.
Yawn is a great final move on slaking I use atm because if people switch in a bulky pokemon or faster pokemon to try take slaking down you just yawned them and made that a risk to stay in now
Slaking has been my favorite pokemon ever since I was a kid. Thanks for playing a team with him once again :)
Brother, it brings joy to my heart seeing you working hard and seeing the increase in both views and subs lately. Great content as always, ty for vid
0:06 wait why does he have 100 speed😭
I always wondered how Slaking and Regigigas would look like next to a Weezing with Neutralizing Gas
I used to use entrainment
NO.
With a Medicham to Skill Swap Truant with PURE POWER.
Then just sit back and hold onto something as Slaking goes WILD.
@@DatCartoonistGuy ima have to try that lol
@@DatCartoonistGuythat’s a scary sight
@@DatCartoonistGuyRegigigas also can work with it very well
Have you ever encountered a specs Hydrapple?
Drop a draco or leaf storm, nuke an enemy, and switch out to both heal and reset the stat drops. Leaf storm even nukes Flutter Mane, it’s super fun!
New Haydunn video it's a good day
Second match was hilarious. Dude brought every major threat in the game but forgot to bring strategy.
Every opponent he plays outside of the draft league seems to forget strategy, its weird
I’m laughing so hard cuz I’m at work, just got off break after playing some pokemon and eating, and said “it’ll be even chiller if Haydunn uploaded a battle” then boom got that notification 🙌🏾
9:26 NO WAY SOMEONE NAMED THEIR ARCANINE KOMAINU 😆😆😆 THAT'S THE NAME OF A SPECTROBE!!!! I loved the game as a child
slaking scares me. both design wise and power wise
STAB Giga Impact on adamant Slaking with choice band goes crazy fr
Off topic, i named my Glimmora "broken arrow" and it was censored in the matches. (It was a meme set, sunny day/power gem/dazzling gleam/solar beam with the toxic spike ability)
Torkoal was already there for sun, just had it on glim to help combat peliper switch ins and genie weather moves.
hahaha wow that's insane, that's me in the first battle, got completely wiped out by that Slaking. I was like... Wait, is that Haydunn? Why is his name spelled wrong? 😂 I can't believe it, this made my day and I didn't even watch the video yet! Haha
I do regret messing with the Dorito bird over there 😂
Just finished watching this video! This really made my day! Haydunn, you're literally 1 of 2 Poketubers I regularly watch on a daily basis (and don't watch any other Pokemon content unless it's updates on new games etc lol), you and JustWeavile. And when I see you two battling it's also one of my highlights of my day haha! Also, guess what? That team was JustWeavile's team haha! You can check his channel to confirm it. I still can't believe this haha. How random life can be! Thank you for your content Hadunn! Appreciate you brother!
LOL that’s awesome, great game my dude
@@Haydunn man I wish:
1. I didn't get parad TWICE when your Hurricane missed TWICE 😂
2. That Focus Blast hit and then you wouldn't be able to tell my Arcanine was Specs and not Scarf (even though probably wouldn't make too much of a difference but still would've been funny if you brought in the Exeggutor and pulled a Tera :D)
GG was a good one and a very random one.
P.S.
Fun fact: I gave my character yellow spiky hair and blue eyes to be the *only* super saiyan in the game. #Crossover #RIPAkiraToriyama
Slaking is a Staple on my surprise/ intricate style teams.... Karen and koga of gen 2s elite 4 have two of Pokemons greatest quotes of all time IMO when it comes to battling
Random thought: what if Truant acted like built in leftovers? The slakoth line already has slack off as basically a signature move
Using Slaking with retaliate as a revenge killer is actually so good because it allows you to switch after you attack
This will always be my favorite Pokémon his literally unstoppable and the only reason he doesn’t come out as a mythic Pokémon in my eyes is cause his ability is just that he doesn’t feel like it
This strat is over 20 years old. It still works. Though back in Emerald, we only had Hyper Beam. And yes, gen Z and younger, back then, Hyper Beam did physical damage. :P (and also emotional damage, since Slaking had like the 3rd highest stats of any mon ever. Also Doubles with Trace Skill Swap Gardevoir (Dusclops worked too, but it didn't have Trace so you couldn't steal an ability with it). You also gave it EQ and Shadow Ball (cuz that was a physical type too) and then filler, usually some sort of coverage or utility move. In doubles it'd be Protect (because in doubles you really need to run protect a lot, and skill swap's the only way to make Slaking work in doubles).
Happy to see a 3rd gen mon like this still kicking ass today.
tbh getting sponsored by ur friend's new game is such a hell yea moment that i would love nothing more than to be on either side of
I wonder what Slaking could be if it wasn't completely crippled by Truant. TBH, it would prob be in AG.
Loafing gorilla time!
On the second guy, just by looking at the team you can already tell that he does NOT like losing and will play any Pokémon necessary to win, always satisfying to see people like that lose, especially rage quit lol
Can slaking learn Feint? It would be a solid STAB move for those hiding behind protect/detect from a powerhouse like Slaking if so
I literally can't remember the last time Haydunn had hazard control on his team lmao
Whenever I get Slaking in randbats it never disappoints. Using Double Edge with a Choice Band it doesn't really feel that different from other banded Pokemon that you switch in for a revenge kill then switch out. Also has access to good coverage to make Ghosts think twice.
How does hurricane miss a Pokémon that’s paralyzed and can’t move?
Paralysis should increase accuracy
Paralysed is already plenty strong. I know it doesn’t make too much sense, but buffing paralysis would be bad for game balance.
The slakoth line was always my gen 3 favorite.
Fun fact, in the story mode, slaking is an absolute beast with no flaw ! all you gotta do is use an item half its turns, either to heal him, or buff his stats : That's what he's meant to do (hence the hero's father normal gym, that is based on...using items)
Or you can switch him when he's done one shooting the first enemy
Also, best hyper beam user in the game (he loses a turn ANYWAY)
AND his preevolution vigoroth has such scary stats that he easily counts as a legit final form, like a linoone or a persian
Love these lazy ass dudes
Man, I remember in Showdown doubles where I sent out Slaking and Cofagrigus. Was unstoppable. 👌
Funfact; Slacking is in the [Reclining Buddha] pose.
I played against you :) i wasn’t in the video but i was the Bubbledame that won with a Cloyster. Gg though didnt think i would play against you
How did you run into him? Just default 6v6 no code? Lol
@@Magetastic69yeah i was trying out excadrill did a 6v6 and he was the 1st battle
@joshuawaghorn8158 crazy lol I've been a fan for years, want to show him my gen 1 mono poison team lol
@@Magetastic69somehow i still remember the exact battle
I lead with excadrill them with zapdos
I stealth rock they heat wave
I switch to iron thorns then they volt switch to eggsecutor
They frisk loaded dice and tera steel, i
Pin missile, they miss draco meteor.
I earthquake, exeggutor faints
They send in slaking
I switch to exca as a sack and they earthquake taking out excadrill
I switch to cloyster they then switch to tinkaton as i shell smash, i use crit drill run as an ohko on tinka, they switch to slaking that gets ohko by icicle spear, they switch to zapdos and forfeit after.
Choice band double edge Slaking is nearly as good as giga impact + you can switch out during your truant turn since there's no recharge
Slaking been giving us maximum Unga Bunga power since ‘02, but I definitely hear Knuck If You Buck start playing anytime a Tinkaton gets sent out 🤣
I remember the day I made a troll team with Slaking, by leading Cofagrigus in front of it, and Slaking have Pursuit and my friends realize they f_ up. Unfortunately Pursuit is cut from the game.
I have wanted to try this even before you made this video
Was it the eject button that switches you out after you make an attack? I feel like that'd be good on Slaking also! Unless I'm misremembering that item haha
I believe eject button switches you out when you get attacked. Exeggutor had an eject pack, which switches you out when one of your stats is lowered, so the special attack drop from leaf storm or draco meteor activates it. I don’t know if slaking gets close combat, but that could be a good move to switch out on.
@@kelvinsomnia THAT'S what it was, thanks for correcting me :D
3 worst abilities: truant, slow start, and defeatist.
what does defeatist do again?
@@cladyweather archeops ability, halves speed and atk when half HP or lower
@@marshmallow5672 oh, I see
thank you for telling me :D
Actually it keeps the speed , only drops attack and special attack
0:17 I laughed so hard 🤣🤣!
The double videos are nice man, keep it up
"we do touch the guy so we get all slimy and gooey" 💀
I think it would be cool if slacking could like use the move slack off while it's a little thing around because of ability. I think that would make it a lot better
I also have a shiny Medicham called NippleKnee! I caught it back in ORAS, I don’t think the name was censored in that game.
Nooo! Not my Tims!! -Mandibuzz probably
Thanks for your videos brother. You make the work week a lot better for us all
since you've been bringing underrated mythicals, i's love to see wo chien. Such s banger design!
I’m thinking Slaking with the move Last Out would be OP potentially 🎉
Oh yes, my best and secret weapon in Battle Revolution, used to delete a lot of ubers with him using Choice Scarf, nobody expected a first turn Giga Impact faster than they Kyogres
can you make a how to make a competitive team video?(keep up the good work!) also everyone like this so it goes to the top and there is a chance he will see it
Mummy Slaking in the Pokemon World Tournament in Gen 5 was awesome.
You should've used technology to show us the ending
I know you don’t do double much, and it’s probably not the best strategy, but running contrary malamar with skill swap could probably make slakking fairly viable
That beginning seeing Slaking run up towards his battle position, I have never ever seen a Slaking move! (Im old)
What I find hilarious is if you gave slacking slow start it would be better. Unlike Regigigas it has the tools to stall.
then you meet it in a randomiser nuzlocke where you randomised abilities 😈
I'd like to see try and make a great use of Steel roller. Fun terrain teams are pretty good.
Haydunn I keep telling ya, you must do doubles.
Imagine Slaking after gastro acid from Swalot/Serperior 🤯
My Slaking on Saphire didnt had that ability...pretts sure a bug but it had the previoua evo ability
That slaking wasn't playing around, and it was probably vital spirit so he ain't loafing
Been running this start for a. Minute. In ranked too. It's hilarious. It's off meta so alof of people don't know how to react to it.
Slaking max atk - giga impact, seedbomb, sucker punch and earth quake for coverage. choice band. Great wall remover. 😂😂
I love to fall asleep to your videos. They (battles) and you are funny, easy to follow when I'm sleepy & it's my "downtime / decompress" time primarily from very stressful & responsible job (I am a social worker), as well as providing absolutely necessary personal relief from a million other stressors/traumas unrelated to my job. From the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU. You are a life & sanity saver. Thank you for all you do. I appreciate it greatly. Deepest & kindest regards from Zagreb, Croatia. 🙌🏻🩷☺️🥰😌😴
Thanks so much I’m glad you enjoy!!
I fell in love with slaking in emerald after playing with the beast
My mans ran away from slaking lmao
Slaking is a Groudon . Hit harder than groudon but smaller in size 😂
That Slaking put in work you made that boy quit. 😂
My friend used to beat my ash with a choice band slaking once u know protect stall he’s not too bad but if u can pair him with Swoobat the fact he does has slack off bulk up & amnesia if u can get simple on him with skill swap man he is one of the best Pokémon
Good thing Double Battles allow for switching or neutralizing Slaking's ability...
Imagine truant mons got scrappy built in
Slaking would just giga impact everything with hazards up
I can't help but imagine slaking without the truant ability.
Try Skill Swap with a Medicham to give a Slaking PURE POWER.
Honestly, why does nobody do this?!
Plenty of people do it. It just tends to fail as it’s really predictable and makes it obviously a 2v1 vs the slaking.
If there's a skill swapper with follow me I'd use it
@@spiritbaki108indeedee there is
@@zelda6781 I might try it on showeown
@RePorpoised Sure, but who says the Medicham has to stay in? Just swap it out for a better partner!
Really wish Game Freak would give Zapdos Air Slash instead of having it rely on Missicane all the time.
Punching glove urshifu cant hit through protect, why would he use that item
Retaliate Slaking is a hell of a good revenge killer.
I've just been watching Haydun for so long bro
Just saw you've been subbed for 11 years. Appreciate it my friend
I’ve been using Giga impact slaking in some of my videos lately and it’s so satisfying whacking people with it lol. Just gotta look out for people protect stalling you 😒
The first match was crazy and there was no Tera involved in it
Speaking of Speed, can someone explain why the Fast Landshark is slower, than a ball?
Even my boy is not competitive he is still my all time favorite Pokemon
Slaking got me quaking
I was literally just scrolling to see if u made a slaking vid before and u post this 🔥
Worst ability? Entrainment durant arena trap diglett or shadow tag hone claws protect sweep
Pfft the selfie shot in the intro with Slaking-
No weezing? No neutralizing gas? No doubles? What are you even doing?🤨
You should make a team of two 3 stage evolution pokemon, but use all 3 stages of each pokemon
Right into the slaking impact. Got to love it lol
Hey does truant count for the giga impact turn or no. Oh wait nvm. ( also would love to see a alolan raichu video)
I wonder can you use this build in pokemon SPBD battle tower
Thanks for all you do, Haydun!
Considering the game's power creep I think it is time to give Slaking some love and fix Truant. Even if you keep the effect that the mon can only attack every 2nd turn, I think it should have at least some passive benefit, like increased defenses on the truant turn, healing or whatever.
I thought of an ability called restraint where it can attack every turn. But every other turn, it only uses half of its attack stat so base 80 instead of 160
Bruh the bots😭
