Mine knows:

Trump Card: Can end up being incredibly powerful. Also doesn't miss.

Psychic: Good power, high accuracy, STAB, chance to lower Sp. Def.

Surf: Good power, high accuracy, STAB.

Nasty Plot: Greatly increases Sp. Attack.

I like this set, seems good to me. Perhaps have slack off for health restoration if you make a tank Slowking. Calm Mind would be a bit more reliable and more fitting for his tanking style.

Trick Room Set

Item: Lagging Tail (in case you're up against a slower pokemon like Snorlax)
Trait: Own Tempo
Nature: Sassy (+SpDef, -Spd)
Trick Room - Obvious.
Psyshock - Psychic is used lots, so why not a change?
Surf - Powerful STAB, good acc.
Nasty Plot - Raises SpAtk by 2 stages.

EVs? (I have a similar slowking... That's the bulky set up, right?)
