I like the name, and the concept is nice. But it just seems too similar to Slakoth. I would change the ability to something else, and maybe make it a bit more Poison-looking. Otherwise, I think it's a good idea.

The Truant ability is meant to simulate how incredibly slow the real-life slow loris is. Would it be cheating to give him a signature ability that combines the effect of Poison Point and Truant (and then remove Secrete)?

True, I guess it does fit. It just always seemed that Truant was meant to simply be a burden for otherwise amazing Pokemon, like Slaking and Dream World Durant. If Secrete is a really good move, then it should work.

Yeah, you're right. I changed the ability, and then made its speed stat as low as possible. Now literally anything else in the game can outrun it.

You sure weren't kidding when you meant ANYTHING in the game. I think this works out better for Sloxic, and now it has an excuse to poison enemies twice.

And with that in mind, I changed Secrete's effect.

I like it.

The base stat total is way too low, here have a list. Currently it has a lower base stat total than Weedle. It simply won't do.
Here have funny looking stats:
HP 106
ATK 96
DEF 76
SPA 74
SPD 94
SPE 14
BST 460
This BST is pretty fair for a fully evolved mon and 14 Base speed lets it outspeed only 5 official mons. I just winged it with the other stats because slow loris.

Let's just give it Poison Touch so it won't have to make an ability that only one mon would have ever.

The dexes could use more work, I don't think we use allcaps in them anymore. Right now they just look kinda generic so you should do more loris-ey research.

I'm not sure about that move; the effect is [edit: still] interesting but I'm not sure about that name. I think it should be a little less vague but should not end up so specific that it's too restrictive.

Visit the IRC channel so you can ask for feedback even before you post!

I took your base stats and went ahead and re-reduced the Speed, nothing should be able to outrun it like ever. I changed the ability and Secrete's name, and I'll work on the dexen.
