Written Option 1
 
There are two very clear canon ways to improve the stats and abilities of a Slowpoke. The most common and first discovered option is training a Slowpoke to roughly that of level 37. This level of training and dedication will force the Slowpoke (unless the evolution is cancelled) to evolve into a Slowbro. While there would be some tradeoffs it is widely considered to be an upgrade with a clear upgrade at stats and the ability to learn new abilities that were previously unlearnable by the Slowpoke. Another, less known, way to turn Slowpoke into a super soldier is trading the Slowpoke to a new team while holding a King’s Rock. This one is also less likely to happen as Slowpoke is quite happy with where he is in terms of the team and career progression. Both of these routes though would create a similar change in Slowpoke that would by definition be an upgrade. Why Slowpoke hasn’t done these is unknown but don’t look for him to evolve any time soon.
