We all know Muk, because Ash had one back in the Kanto region. Let's see some facts about it.
- Although Muk's body is very poisonous, it doesn't seem to harm Ash and the others when Muk is 'hugging' them. This is probably because it is able to control whether it gives off poison or not, similar to how Ponyta can choose whether or not to burn the person that touches it. Croagunk is another Pokémon which is able to control the amount of poison it uses via its fingertips when using Poison Jab, or Sharpedo activating its Ability, Rough Skin.
- Muk shares similar traits to Weezing and Garbodor. All three Pokémon are pure Poison types with a single pre-evolution, roughly the same base stat totals and evolution levels, and appear to be based on a different kind of pollution; Muk being water pollution.
- Muk has the highest average Performance of any fully-evolved Pokémon.
- Alolan Muk and its Alolan pre-evolution were designed by Hitoshi Ariga.
- Muk is one of two Pokémon to have the shortest English Pokémon name, Mew being the other.
