The 2014 Pokémon World Championships concluded last night in Washington, DC, and attendees were treated to a special video that showcased the Mega-Evolved form of Slowbro in a new trailer by Mr. Junichi Masuda, video game director at GAME FREAK.

Slowbro, a Water- and Psychic-type Pokémon, is one of two evolved forms of Slowpoke, the other being Slowking. When Slowbro Mega Evolves into Mega Slowbro, its energy gathers in the Shellder clamped onto its tail. As a result, the hardness of its shell is boosted, making its armour incredibly strong. In battle, Mega Slowbro balances on its tail, wearing Shellder as an impenetrable armour over its body.

Mega Slowbro has the Shell Armor Ability, which prevents opponents from landing critical hits and makes Mega Slowbro a defensive threat in battle. Its Defense and Sp. Atk stats also increase, so it’s a great teammate for long battles where high endurance is a factor.

Players can Mega Evolve Slowbro in the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire video games, available beginning November 28, 2014, for the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 2DS.
