Slakoth Location

Found in Trees of South Province (Area 3 & 5)

Slakoth can be found on top of tree branches in South Province (Area 3 and 5). The best way to catch Slakoth is to use Koraidon or Miraidon's Boost ability to run into trees and knock them off into the ground.

Use the Picnic Table Method to Spawn Slakoth Fast

You can use the Picnic Table Method to reset the Pokemon that spawn nearby. As long as you are within Slakoth's spawn range, you can do this method constantly until the Pokemon appears.
