Snorlax

Snorlax is a really good Pokemon. I've had a lot of experience raising a Snorlax. He evolves from Munchlax and eats so much that it becomes too lethargic to lift a finger.
Snorlax has a great combination of status. High HP, Defense, and Attack. With all these, Snorlax is a tank and he doesn't even need Speed. He has a high movepool and has two abilities. Thick Fat lessens the damage Snorlax takes from Ice and Fire Type attacks. It's great, but I think the other ability Snorlax has is better. Immunity- basically, you're immune from being under the POISONED status problem. It's awesome.
Snorlax has so many moves; it's hard to pick from just 4. Mine doesn't have the best moveset. I think it's a great idea to equip it with Giga Impact. You get a STAB and a strong physical move to attack potential threats. It doesn't even matter if you have to recharge the next turn, because he has so much HP. He can also be bred with FISSURE!
If you want to save some time and not raise Snorlax- that's okay. Well actually I think you'd be LAZY!
I'm talking to YOU! Just kidding- XD!
Anyway, Snorlax is a great Pokemon I just don't think I could live without.

Positive Review- The Pokemon is strong, great, used a lot, Pokemon is good overall.

In-Between Review- The Pokemon is okay, not the best, okay, acceptable, has one or two faults, In the Middle.

Yikes Review- The Pokemon is bad, maybe weak, not the best at all, has a few faults, it needs improvement.

STAB- Stands for Same Type Attack Bonus. It's when a Pokemon uses an attack that is the same Type as itself. The move becomes more powerful because the move is the same Type as the user.

Eeveelutions- An evolved form of Eevee.

Staller- A Pokemon that takes up time in battle. They usually use something like Toxic, use an Attack to inflict damage and after that, uses Protect to take up some time, and rely on the Poisoning to defeat the opposing Pokemon. It also counts with Pokemon who use moves like Refresh. Usually a Stalling Pokemon has to have high HP, Defense, Sp. Defense, and Speed stats.

Uber- A Pokemon capable of doing a lot of damage, mostly legendaries.

Tiers- Ranks that separate Pokemon into different classes, based on how often they're used and how capable they are in battle. LC is Little Cup, which is mainly unevolved Pokemon, NFE is Not Fully-Evolved, which are Pokemon that have evolved, but aren't fully-evolved, and Limbo are Pokemon being tested out to see how capable they are. To find out more about the main tiers, check out serebii.net, smogon, and Bulbapedia.

Entry Hazards- Things set up by using the moves Spikes, Toxic Spikes, or Stealth Rock. These can hurt Pokemon after being set up upon the Pokemon being sent out in the battle. Depending on the Pokemon's typing, they may get hurt a lot. If a Pokemon is 4x weak to Stealth Rock, for example, they lose half of their HP. Spikes can be avoided with levitating or Flying-Type Pokemon. Toxic Spikes poison the opponent's Pokemon when they're sent out into battle. Two sets of them badly poison them.
