MUK WISDOM

trash ditto

I’ve been trying to avoid getting too much into Pokemon Sun/Moon hype, but there’s literally nothing I can’t love about Alola’s Muk. Trash-eating rainbow slime that grows toxic crystals? SIGN ME UP

“keep it safe, help it grow”

Man, what if Grimer got an Alola form? Because according to the XY Pokedex, Grimer are created from the moon’s x-rays. And now that we have Lunala and its Full Moon phase, I was thinkin’, “what if Lunala’s powers can manipulate the growth of Grimer on Alola?” I was unsure about the typing though. I considered Poison/Psychic and maybe just Psychic :0

What footprints? What feet?! Muk explain yourself!

Though Muk are not exclusively linked to human activity, the population of Grimer and Muk has increased exponentially with the development of urban areas and super-cities. They gravitate most to damp, stagnant water, being found in waste deposits and sewers and absorbing the filth and toxins around them. It is of no surprise that Muk are labeled a health hazard; While their scent alone often causes areas to be closed off, children who have played in water contaminated with Muk’s filth have been known to contract severe illnesses. Because of the obvious health risk they pose, Muk have been banned from official pokemon tournaments, and people are petitioning to ban trainers from catching them all together.
