Snorlax (カビゴン, Kabigon) is a creature in the Pokémon franchise. It appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon in all five Smash Bros. games. It is the evolved form of Munchlax.

Origin[edit]

Snorlax's official artwork from Pokémon Red and Green.

Snorlax is one of the first 151 Pokémon first appearing in the Generation I games, and at its debut was the absolute heaviest Pokémon. In Generation VIII, Snorlax is able to temporarily Gigantamax. During the transformation, it gains access to the move G-Max Replenish. 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 Poké Flute in order to fight it and be able to proceed. Snorlax evolves from Munchlax when leveled up with high friendship.

Body Slam 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.

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.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

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.

The balloon's belly raises and lowers as if it is "breathing", referencing its sleeping idle animation in Pokemon Stadium.
