Read more ↓Muk is a formidable Poison-type Pokémon that first appeared in the Kanto region, introduced in Generation I. It is the evolved form of Grimer, transforming from a smaller pile of sludge into a larger, more menacing mass of toxic goo. Muk's natural habitat is typically found in polluted waters, industrial areas, and waste disposal sites, thriving in environments that are harmful to most other living things. Its diet consists of various forms of waste and toxic materials, which it absorbs to grow and sustain itself. Muk is known for its incredibly noxious odor, which can cause severe illness if inhaled, and its touch is highly corrosive. In the Pokémon games, Muk is often encountered as a challenging opponent due to its high Special Defense and HP, and its ability to inflict status conditions. In the anime, Muk is famously owned by Ash Ketchum, serving as a comedic and affectionate, albeit smelly, companion. Muk’s type matchups make it strong against Grass and Fairy types, but weak to Ground and Psychic. Culturally, Muk represents the consequences of pollution and the resilience of life, even in the most toxic conditions, making it a memorable and iconic Pokémon.
