Snorlax is a massive, extremely heavy, vaguely ursine life form. The Pokédex says it is very lazy, and its typical day consists of nothing more than eating and sleeping. It is not satisfied unless it eats over 880 pounds of food every day, and it promptly goes back to sleep once it is done eating. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful, and when its belly is full, it becomes too lethargic to even lift a finger. Its stomach's digestive fluids can dissolve any kind of food or poison, and it never gets an upset stomach even if it eats moldy or rotten food off the ground. What sounds like its cry may actually be its snores or the rumblings of its hungry belly. It is such a docile specie that there are children who use its expansive belly as a place to play and bounce on.
'''Snorlax''' ({{ja|カビゴン|Kabigon}}, ''Kabigon'') is a creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} franchise. It appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon in all five ''Smash Bros.'' games. It is the evolved form of [[Munchlax]].


==Origin==
Snorlax is one of the original 151 Pokémon that appears in the first generation games ''[[Pokémon Red & Blue]]''. The player could capture a Snorlax by playing the Poké Flute to wake it up. The Poké Flute was used to awaken Snorlax in both the Pokémon anime and ''Pokémon Snap''. Ash Ketchum at one time caught a Snorlax on his Orange Island adventures. He has called upon its extreme power in many situations. When the fourth generation came around, Snorlax gained a pre-evolved form Pokémon named [[Munchlax]]. A player could obtain a Munchlax by either breeding two Snorlaxes while one holds a Full Incense or using honey on a tree. In the highest levels of the Competitive Metagame, Snorlax is regarded as one of the most useful and mot threatening Pokemon, ever since the days of Red and Blue.

{{pkmn|Snorlax}} is one of the first 151 Pokémon first appearing in the {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}} games, and at its debut was the absolute heaviest Pokémon. In {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation VIII}}, Snorlax is able to temporarily {{iw|bulbapedia|Gigantamax}}. During the transformation, it gains access to the move {{iw|bulbapedia|G-Max Replenish|move}}. It is categorized within the Pokédex at #143 as the "Sleeping Pokémon". In all of the main series games where it is found in the wild it appears sleeping in the middle of roads, blocking them with its enormous size, and must be woken up by the sound of a {{iw|bulbapedia|Poké Flute}} in order to fight it and be able to proceed. Snorlax evolves from {{pkmn|Munchlax}} when leveled up with high friendship.


{{iw|bulbapedia|Body Slam|move}} is a Normal-type move with 85 base power and a 30% chance to paralyze the target. Snorlax can learn it by level in every game.
==In ''Super Smash Bros.''==


Snorlax's Japanese and English voice clips used in every ''Smash'' game each come from the ''Pokémon'' anime episode ''Wake Up, Snorlax!''. Its "rising" clip plays when it wakes up while its "falling" clip plays when its still asleep.

Snorlax uses Body Slam as his attack. Snorlax jumps in the air and disappears off the screen. Snorlax will then inflate himself and descend towards the bottom of the screen. Any character that makes contact with Snorlax will take damage. Snorlax also destroys certain things on a stage. He will destroy [[items]] like [[Bob-omb|Bob-ombs]] and [[Motion-sensor Bomb|Motion-sensor Bombs]]. If Snorlax gets hit by an attack that's strong enough before he jumps he will jump diagonally. Snorlax's attack does not harm the summoner.

Snorlax uses Body Slam as its attack. It jumps in the air and disappears off the screen. Snorlax will then inflate itself, making itself bigger, and descend towards the bottom of the screen. Any character that makes contact with Snorlax will take damage and considerable knockback. Snorlax's hitboxes can also affect stage elements and set off explosive items such as the [[Bob-omb]]. The attack does not harm the summoner.

A giant balloon of Snorlax (in actuality the 3D model of Snorlax used in ''Pokémon Stadium'' for Nintendo 64) is one of the many floating and bending "platforms" that comprise the [[Poké Floats]] stage. The balloon's belly raises and lowers as if "breathing".

Snorlax reprises its role in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.


===In [[Smash Tour]]===
Note that this trophy description is out of date; Following Melee, even heavier Pokémon have been introduced, with the current record-holder for Pokémon weight being [[Groudon]], or technically Missingno.. It has now been out-ranked by four other Pokémon (one of two forms) making it the sixth heaviest legit Pokémon including alternate forms.
Snorlax appears as a blue item: when selected, it prevents the user from being launched as a result of being KOed or due to the effect of other items like [[Zinger]] and [[Dillon]].

In {{forwiiu}}, the Snorlax trophy is obtained by clearing the "[[Fitness Junkie]]" [[event]] at normal or hard difficulty.

Snorlax returns in ''Brawl'' with exactly the same functionality, making it the only Poké Ball Pokémon to appear in all 3 installments with an attack not changed or given to another Pokémon. Oddly enough, its baby form (Munchlax) is also in Brawl.

|desc-ntsc=This sleepy, Normal-type Pokémon is huge! It eats more than 900 lb. of food every day. Most of the time not spent eating is spent sleeping. That big, round body comes in handy when it's brought onto a Smash Bros. battlefield—the Body Slam attack will send anyone who gets hit flying into the air!
|desc-pal=Snorlax is often referred to as the Sleeping Pokémon, and there's a good reason for that! This giant loafer spends almost all its time snoozing, getting up for just long enough each day to scoff up a tidy 400kg of food. In this game, it soars into the air and uses its Body Slam attack, smacking into fighters like a giant wrecking ball.

**Snorlax is the only one of these three that actually attacks when summoned.
*Snorlax's evolutionary line is the only one in the series to have more than one summonable Pokémon in the same game, with Munchlax also being a Poké Ball Pokémon in ''Brawl''.
