Overview
Slowbro is a Water/Psychic-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Hermit Crab Pokemon (Dex #025). It evolves from Slowpoke and is part of the same evolution family as Slowking. Slowbro can be found across multiple habitats and carries the Water and Trade specialties, making it a versatile addition to any island. In the main Pokemon series, Slowbro evolves from Slowpoke; in Pokopia, all members of the Slowpoke family (Slowpoke, Slowbro, Slowking) spawn independently at their own habitats, with no in-game evolution mechanic.
Habitat
Slowbro can appear in three different habitats:
Habitat | Number | Rarity |
|---|---|---|
Seaside Tall Grass | #005 | Very Rare |
Bed with a Plush | #030 | Rare |
Fishing Pond | #184 | Uncommon |
The Fishing Pond habitat offers the best odds of encountering Slowbro, where it appears at Uncommon rarity. The Seaside Tall Grass habitat is shared with its pre-evolution Slowpoke, but Slowbro is Very Rare there. The Bed with a Plush habitat provides a middle-ground at Rare rarity.
Location
Slowbro is found primarily in Withered Wasteland. Its Seaside Tall Grass habitat is located near the coastal areas of the region, while the Bed with a Plush and Fishing Pond habitats can be built in various locations. The Fishing Pond in particular is a later-game habitat that also attracts various Water-type Pokemon like Magikarp.
How to Befriend
After Slowbro appears at one of its habitats, speak to it and complete its befriending request. Given Slowbro's relaxed personality, its request fits the laid-back theme of the Slowpoke evolution family. Once befriended, Slowbro will stay on your island and contribute its Water and Trade specialties. Feed it Dry-flavor food and decorate with water-themed and clean items to raise its Comfort Level.
Specialties
Water
The Water specialty lets Slowbro spray water on nearby fields, plants, and crops. It can fill Water Basins, hydrate dry grass, and help maintain moisture levels on your island. Place Slowbro near your farming area for passive crop watering, similar to other Water-specialty Pokemon like Squirtle.
Trade
The Trade specialty allows Slowbro to assist with trading functions. Pokemon with the Trade specialty can help facilitate item exchanges and commerce-related activities on your island. This makes Slowbro useful for economic management alongside its Water capabilities.

Tips
If you need a Water-specialty Pokemon with additional utility, Slowbro's Trade specialty gives it an edge over single-specialty Water Pokemon.
Target the Fishing Pond habitat (#184) for the best chance at finding Slowbro, since it appears at Uncommon rarity there versus Very Rare in Seaside Tall Grass.
Slowbro is compatible with Slowking, Squirtle, Slowpoke, Lapras, Wartortle, Blastoise, Psyduck, Azurill, Goomy, and Goodra as roommates.
Place Slowbro near crop fields alongside other Water-specialty Pokemon for efficient passive irrigation of your farm.
