Pokédex entries
Snorlax
Red Blue |
Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful. |
---|---|
Yellow | Will eat anything, even if the food happens to be a little moldy. It never gets an upset stomach. |
Gold | What sounds like its cry may actually be its snores or the rumblings of its hungry belly. |
Silver | Its stomach’s digestive juices can dissolve any kind of poison. It can even eat things off the ground. |
Crystal | This POKéMON’s stomach is so strong, even eating moldy or rotten food will not affect it. |
Ruby Sapphire |
SNORLAX’s typical day consists of nothing more than eating and sleeping. It is such a docile POKéMON that there are children who use its expansive belly as a place to play. |
FireRed | It is not satisfied unless it eats over 880 pounds of food every day. When it is done eating, it goes promptly to sleep. |
LeafGreen | Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful. |
Emerald | SNORLAX’s typical day consists of nothing more than eating and sleeping. It is such a docile POKéMON that there are children who use its big belly as a place to play. |
Diamond | Its stomach can digest any kind of food, even if it happens to be moldy or rotten. |
Pearl | It stops eating only to sleep. It doesn’t feel full unless it eats nearly 900 pounds a day. |
Platinum | When its belly is full, it becomes too lethargic to even lift a finger, so it is safe to bounce on its belly. |
HeartGold | What sounds like its cry may actually be its snores or the rumblings of its hungry belly. |
SoulSilver | Its stomach’s digestive juices can dissolve any kind of poison. It can even eat things off the ground. |

Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire |
Snorlax’s typical day consists of nothing more than eating and sleeping. It is such a docile Pokémon that there are children who use its expansive belly as a place to play. |
Sun | Its stomach is said to be incomparably strong. Even Muk’s poison is nothing more than a hint of spice on Snorlax’s tongue. |
Moon | It eats nearly 900 pounds of food every day. It starts nodding off while eating—and continues to eat even while it’s asleep. |
Ultra Sun | It doesn’t do anything other than eat and sleep. When prompted to make a serious effort, though, it apparently displays awesome power. |
Ultra Moon | It has no interest in anything other than eating. Even if you climb up on its stomach while it’s napping, it doesn’t seem to mind at all! |
Let's Go Pikachu Let's Go Eevee |

Gigantamax
Sword | Gigantamax energy has affected stray seeds and even pebbles that got stuck to Snorlax, making them grow to a huge size. |
---|---|
Shield | Terrifyingly strong, this Pokémon is the size of a mountain—and moves about as much as one as well. |
