Galarian Slowking is a fantastic specially defensive pivot in Ubers UU with Future Sight, a great defensive typing for the tier, Chilly Reception, and an excellent utility movepool. Future Sight makes stallbreaking much easier, amplifying wallbreakers like Chi-Yu due to the extra damage it provides. Flamethrower hits Magearna and Solgaleo, which are immune to Sludge Bomb and resist Future Sight. Toxic allows Galarian Slowking to cripple offensive Pokemon trying to switch in, like Palkia-O and Arceus formes, whereas Toxic Spikes allows it to shut down teams lacking a Poison-type while also crippling entry hazard-weak Pokemon like Arceus-Dark and Kyurem-W. Tera Water allows Galarian Slowking to resist Palafin's Water-type moves and handle Palkia-O better while shedding its Ground-type weakness, making it better at taking on Landorus. Alternatively, Tera Grass makes Galarian Slowking resistant to Ground and Water, meaning it still handles Palafin and Palkia-O well, at the cost of being weak to Kyurem-W and Chi-Yu. Lastly, Tera Fairy allows Galarian Slowking to shed its Dark-type weakness, flipping the matchup on against Chi-Yu and Arceus-Dark. Galarian Slowking forms good cores with physical walls, which can mitigate its mediocre physical bulk, and as a result, it pairs well with Great Tusk and Giratina. Galarian Slowking can also support less bulky wallbreakers that can struggle to get on the field safely, like Deoxys and Chi-Yu.

Galarian Slowking is a fantastic specially defensive pivot in Ubers UU, with access to Future Sight, Chilly Reception and an excellent utility movepool. Sludge bomb nails Fairy-types like Zacian and Hatterene for super effective damage and can also fish for poisons. Future Sight makes stallbreaking much easier, while also amplifying wallbreakers like Chi-Yu due to the extra damage it provides. Flamethrower hits Magearna and Solgaleo hard, who would be immune to Sludge Bomb and resist Future Sight. Toxic allows Slowking-Galar to cripple offensive Pokemon trying to switch in, like Palkia-O or Arceus, whereas Toxic Spikes allows Slowking-Galar to shutdown offensive teams immediately teams lacking a Poison Type, while also crippling hazard-weak Pokemon like Arceus and Kyurem-W. Tera Water allows Galarian Slowking to resist Palafin and handle Palkia-O better, while shedding its Ground-type weakness, making it better at handling Landorus. Alternatively, Tera Grass makes you resistant to Ground and Water, meaning you still handle Palafin and Palkia-Origin well, while being better into Landorus, at the cost of being weak to Arceus-Poison Kyurem-W and Chi-Yu. Lastly, Tera Fairy allows Slowking-Galar to shed its Dark Type weakness, flipping the matchup on Chi-Yu and Arceus-Dark. Slowking-Galar forms good pairings with physical walls, who can mitigate its mediocre physical bulk, and as such it pairs well with Great Tusk and Giratina. Slowking-Galar can also support more frail teammates who struggle to get on the field, like Deoxys and Chi-Yu Write this last bit a bit more clearly that you're talking about good offensive synergies.
