  17. <h3>What's the big deal?</h3>
  18. <p>Here it is: the king of Kanto Classic, Snorlax! This metagame is a perfect storm for everyone's favorite napper: with the lack of offensive boosting items, Snorlax is bulkier than it's been in a long time. Base 110 Attack is great for Kanto Classic too. Combine this with a great movepool and only one weakness, and you got the best tank and quite possibly the best Pokemon in Kanto Classic!</p>

  20. <h3>What should I expect to see?</h3>
  21. <p>Snorlax is almost always going to go with Body Slam, as the chance to paralyze is extremely valuable, plus it protects Snorlax from Minimize spam. However, Return is viable as well if you want some extra power. Crunch gives Snorlax perfect neutral coverage and deals a ton of damage to Gengar to boot. Rest is perfect for keeping Snorlax up and running for a while, especially when run with Sleep Talk. However, if you have Aromatherapy support or can deal with the dead Rest turns, there are other viable options. Fissure gives Snorlax an edge against walls like Slowbro with the ability to OHKO them and makes No Guard Machamp lose its ability to switch in safely. Pursuit allows Snorlax to trap unsuspecting Alakazam, making it an extremely valuable asset for Poison-types such as Nidoking. If you want to boost Snorlax's tankiness even further, you can use Curse. Finally, Snorlax has access to Superpower, which can give you an edge against opposing Snorlax and does plenty of damage to Golem switch-ins.</p>

  23. <p>Because Snorlax can tank most special attacks just fine, maxing out Defense and Attack EVs makes the most sense. However, if you want Snorlax to have a shot at surviving Machamp's Close Combat after Stealth Rock, you can use maximum HP and Defense with an Impish nature. Just note that this drastically reduces Snorlax's power.</p>

  25. <h3>What are its flaws?</h3>
  26. <p>Snorlax's biggest vulnerability is its physical bulk. While it's still difficult to 2HKO Snorlax with them, Snorlax's lack of reliable recovery means it can be seriously worn down by physical attacks. Machamp in particular can smash Snorlax with its Fighting-type STAB moves. Golem tends to take anything from Snorlax well except for rare Superpowers and Earthquakes, is immune to Fissure, and can deal serious damage to Snorlax with Earthquake. Rhydon is in a similar boat, though it does risk an OHKO from Fissure.</p>
