| Sun | Beware the poisonous liquid it shoots from its right arm. If even a little of it gets on you, you’ll experience the effects of the unidentified toxin. |
| Moon | For a time, their numbers increased explosively in Alola. Since the arrival of Grimer, their population has decreased dramatically. |
| UltraSun | It locks opponents in place with its left hand, immobilizing them by entirely dousing their bodies with poisonous liquid. |
| UltraMoon | Some say the reason Garbodor in Alola are a little stronger than their counterparts elsewhere is the presence of Muk, their natural enemy. |
| Sword | This Pokémon eats trash, which turns into poison inside its body. The main component of the poison depends on what sort of trash was eaten. |
| Shield | The toxic liquid it launches from its right arm is so virulent that it can kill a weakened creature instantly. |
