Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Known most for its laziness, Ash's Snorlax in Pokémon is actually one of the strongest on his team. However, its true potential isn't truly showcased until a couple of seasons into the anime. Contrarily, the manga, Pokémon Adventures shows exactly why trainers shouldn't underestimate a Snorlax in battle - within just the series' third volume.

This is one of Ash's most impressive battles, showing Snorlax's stamina and hard-hitting moveset with attacks like Ice Punch and Hyper Beam.

The hero uses his Snorlax against his rival's Machamp. Early on, Machamp seems to have the advantage due to it easily stopping Snorlax's attacks, like Mega Punch. It appears to be making quick work of the battle.
