Pokedex Entries

Game	Entry
Red	Thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
Blue	Thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
Yellow	Smells so awful, it can cause fainting. Through degeneration, it lost its sense of smell.
Gold	They love to gather in smelly areas where sludge accumulates, making the stench around them worse.
Silver	Its body is made of a powerful poison. Touching it accidentally will cause a fever that requires bed rest.
Crystal	As it moves, a very strong poison leaks from it, making the ground there barren for three years.
Ruby	From MUK’s body seeps a foul fluid that gives off a nose-bendingly horrible stench. Just one drop of this POKéMON’s body fluid can turn a pool stagnant and rancid.
Sapphire	This POKéMON’s favorite food is anything that is repugnantly filthy. In dirty towns where people think nothing of throwing away litter on the streets, MUK are certain to gather.
Firered	It is usually undetectable because it blends in with the ground. Touching it can cause terrible poisoning.
Leafgreen	Thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
Emerald	It prefers warm and humid habitats. In the summertime, the toxic substances in its body intensify, making MUK reek like putrid kitchen garbage.
Heartgold	They love to gather in smelly areas where sludge accumulates, making the stench around them worse.
Soulsilver	Its body is made of a powerful poison. Touching it accidentally will cause a fever that requires bed rest.
Black2	It’s so stinky! Muk’s body contains toxic elements, and any plant will wilt when it passes by.
White2	It’s so stinky! Muk’s body contains toxic elements, and any plant will wilt when it passes by.
OmegaRuby	From Muk’s body seeps a foul fluid that gives off a nose-bendingly horrible stench. Just one drop of this Pokémon’s body fluid can turn a pool stagnant and rancid.
AlphaSapphire	This Pokémon’s favorite food is anything that is repugnantly filthy. In dirty towns where people think nothing of throwing away litter on the streets, Muk are certain to gather.
Sun	The stench it gives off will make your nose scrunch up. Still, there are Muk fans who think that’s a good thing.
Moon	After recent environmental improvements, this Pokémon is now hardly seen at all. People speculate that it may go extinct at some point.
UltraSun	Their food sources have decreased, and their numbers have declined sharply. Sludge ponds are being built to prevent their extinction.
UltraMoon	Because they scatter germs everywhere, they’ve long been targeted for extermination, leading to a steep decline in their population.
Scarlet	It’s thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
Violet	It’s so stinky! Muk’s body contains toxic elements, and any plant will wilt when it passes by.
