Slowpoke

Slowpoke is the frailest Belly Drum user that is immune to Taunt, thanks to its ability Oblivious. With Black Sludge and Substitute into Belly Drum, Slowpoke can self-2HKO. Slowpoke also happens to be OHKOed by Electrode-H Chloroblast. Thunder Wave disrupts Encore users and phazers switching in. Imprison is an interesting gambit that prevents opposing Pokemon (especially other Slowpoke) from using Substitute and Belly Drum, while Heal Pulse can slow others' KO rates in a pinch, Trick prevents Slowpoke from being complete Trick, Switcheroo, and Knock Off fodder, and Trick Room can provide speed control team support. Tera Ghost Curse can be used to rip out Slowpoke's remaining 50% or less of its max. HP in a pinch, while Tera Dark lets Slowpoke dodge Pranksters. Slowpoke should be Hasty to take Knock Off worse. 6 HP IVs enable the self-2HKO by making Slowpoke's max. HP divisible by 8.
