He CAN be a generalist prestiger, BUT in almost every situation there's a better choice.
For prestiging, it's not about using generalist prestiger; quite the contrary, it's about using specialist prestiger:
Water Gun + Hydro Pump/Aqua Tail for fire types and Rhydon;
Bug Bite + X-Scissor Parasect for Exeggutor;
Frost Breath + Blizzard Dewgong/Cloyster for Dragonite;
Vine Whip + Solar Beam Tangela/Ivysaur/Venusaur for Vaporeon;
Jolteon/Raichu/Electribuzz for Gyarados;
...
Each would prestige more efficiently than Slowbro.
You would only want a generalist prestiger against Snorlax. But again, the best prestiger against Snorlax, is Wigglytuff with Pound + Hyper Beam.
