Using Yawn to induce sleep and Protect, a bulky cycle build. Leftovers keeps HP, and fighting while blocking status-based bulk-breaking suits it.
Body Slam can be swapped for other attacks
Snorlax's Body Slam can be swapped. STAB Double-Edge or Facade, or Ice Punch for Earthquake-complement coverage, are recommended.
Using excellent Sp.Def as a shield to absorb attacks, a role of forcing switches to create favorable matchups. It disrupts the field while regenerating, safely deploying team aces.
Weak to Fighting physical moves and Taunt
Snorlax is a Sp.Def-leaning Normal type, so it falls relatively easily to Fighting physical moves. Since it uses status move Yawn, Taunt is also a threat.
