All Pokemon are coded to do this. Snorlax is no exception.

Durant's Black Dex: They attack in groups, covering themselves in steel armor to protect themselves from Heatmor.

Steel is weak to Fire.

So basically instead of making it less weak to Fire (Bug is weak to Fire) it just gives itself a four-times weakness to "protect itself" from Fire.

Pikachu's Light Ball increases it's Sp Atk (and atk) by 50%. At level 100, with a Modest nature, and 31 IVs, it effectively has a 327 sp atk stat. And it's Thunderbolt gets STAB. So it should hurt to just about anything that isn't a Sp Defense wall. And if Arceus has a low IV in Sp Def or a hindering Sp Def nature, then it'll hurt even more.

People want to characterize Pokemon battling as "simple" really just don't see all the stuff that's going on underneathe the surface.

Its because its based on ants and anteater so anteaters eat the ants and in this case would beat it thanks to Durant's typing.
