Ruling Slaking Memory Berry

[Kamaki]

I'm trying out a slaking PT deck, and I'm using memory berry in it. However I have a question of how it would work with Slakoth PT's move Slack Off. Which heals all damage on Slakoth.

Now when using memory berry, would you be able to use this move and heal all the damage on Slaking? Or would the wording of the attack make it useless?

It works.
Like a Smeargle copying an attack of an opponent's Pokemon like that. Just treat it like it was that Pokemon.

Wow...that's good... With Energy accel, Slaking might be a Tier deck!

^Slaking won't really be good. Look at both Slaking's and Slakoth's text again. Amazing in how slow they are.

In a case like this, you have to pretend that the text would say "this Pokemon."

TofU sent me a strategy to use this line effectively. I still have an image he sent me of how T2 would look with this. If I could just find it....
