^Except that Slowbro is not White Kyurem in derp form, and people will not be freaking out about Future Sight. Yawn will definitely cause switches, but future sight? Eh....
And if a pokemon doesn't like psychic attacks, they'll swap out regardless.
Needs a title.

How about this?Slowbro
adamant nature
evs 252 hp
(with Leftovers and Regenerator)
Calm Mind
Psychic
Surf/Flamethrower/Scald/Slack Off/Yawn
Surf/Flamethrower/Scald/Slack Off/Yawn
Calm mind for powering up slowbro, psychic since STAB. Bug or Dark type troubling you? Flamethrower is there, especially for scizor. Need more STAB? Surf. Status? Scald. Slack off to heal while you have Yawned the opponent.

^ Why would you have an Adamant nature? That lowers Special Attack and raises Attack. The Nature should be a Modest nature for more power, or Bold for more Defense.
I like to use this Trick Room set,
Slowbro @ Leftovers/Life Orb
Quiet Nature, 0 Speed IVs
EVs: 252 HP 252 Spec Attack 4 Defense
Trick Room
Psychic/Psyshock
Surf
Ice Beam/Flamethrower
Trick Room is obvious.
Psychic hits Fighting types better, Psyshock hits special walls.
Surf is a good STAB move.
Ice Beam hits Gliscor/ Zapdos/Landorus etc. Flamethrower hits Ferrothorn/Scizor/Metagross etc.

I think it's a decent set. It can work as a bulky threat with Calm Mind and Slack off, or a bulky sweeper with CM and offensive moves. The items would be leftovers for more longevity, or Life Orb for more power. Personally, I like the Life Orb, you can heal off the recoil damage with Slack Off and Regenerator.

Yeah thanks. I feel Slack Off isn't really necessary when there is Regenerator...

Free Bird!
Regenerator isn't helping with the purpose of the CM set, though. With Slack Off, you can set up, take a hit, heal, set up some more, take a hit, heal, etc. In order to heal with Regenerator, you have to switch out, which ruins any boosting you might have done. Slack Off is also needed to consistently handle physical attackers so that you don't have to switch out every time you get low on health.

Slowbro will never really be a fan of electric moves, unless you use the wacan berry, but that only activates once and means sacrificing leftovers.
It's not just 1 pokemon vs. 1. You have a team of 6, so different pokemon can cover each other's weaknesses. If you don't like thunderbolts and wild charges, you could just swap out for, say, Ferrothorn, who laughs at most pokemon who use such moves. Meanwhile, Slowbro will cover Ferrothorn's nasty fire and fighting weaknesses.

Another ODD Choice:
PhysicalBro
Slowbro @ Leftover
Adamant Nature (+Attack,-Sp.Attack), Regenerator
252 HP, 252 Attack, 6 Special Defense
~ Belly Drum/Curse
~ Slack Off/Drain Punch
~ Zen Headbutt/Aqua Tail/Ice Punch
~ Earthquake/Brick Break/Aqua Tail
This set I prefer Belly Drum, but it's your choice. Belly Drum turns that measly 273 Attack into an awesome 1092 Attack in One-Turn, and again I prefer Slack Off to heal off the damage, and then you can switch, regain health and repeat. Aqua Tail and Earthquake is only resisted in UU by Abomasnow, Shaymin, Virizion. With only Shaymin being more prominent. So, those two together hit almost all the tier,
