==Biology==
==Biology==
Muk is a large, sticky, amorphous Pokémon, made of living purple sludge. It has two small eyes with beady black pupils. It also has an enormous mouth with a grey tongue and strands of ooze connecting its top and bottom jaws. While it has no visible legs, it does have two arms with three fingers on each hand. However, it typically keeps one hand tucked in while it extends the other hand.
Muk is a large, sticky, amorphous {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} made of living purple sludge. It has two small eyes with beady black pupils. It also has an enormous mouth with a gray tongue and strands of ooze connecting its top and bottom jaws. While it has no visible legs, it does have two arms with three fingers on each hand. However, it typically keeps one hand tucked in while it extends the other hand.


It is a living biohazard, leaking toxins that instantly kill all plant life it touches. Even it being in close proximity to plants will cause them to wilt and die. Extreme caution is advised in avoiding any contact with this Pokémon, as an accidental brush up can lead to severe sickness. The effects of this Pokémon can leave the landscape barren for three years. In dirty residential areas where people throw trash into the streets, it is almost certain to appear. It will readily consume nearly any waste or refuse generated by people and Pokémon alike. It can be found in heavily polluted bodies of water, {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|cities and factories}}. However, Muk's population has declined due to recent environmental improvements, leading some to believe that it will go extinct at some point.
Muk is a living biohazard, leaking toxins that instantly kill all plant life it touches. Even it being in close proximity to plants will cause them to wilt and die. Extreme caution is advised in avoiding any contact with this Pokémon, as an accidental brush-up can lead to severe sickness. The effects of this Pokémon can leave the landscape barren for three years. It will readily consume nearly any waste or refuse generated by people and Pokémon alike. Muk's body produces a powerful odor that can cause fainting. However, despite the risk Muk's stench contains, some fans of Muk believe its stench is a good thing.


Alolan Muk has a more vibrant coloration, consisting of green, pink, yellow, and blue. The green, yellow, and pink colors are capable of shifting downwards while the blue stays in place. Like Alolan Grimer, it has various white crystals protruding from parts of its body, especially from its mouth and fingers, giving the impression of claws and teeth. It has blue pupils, black coloring behind its eyes, and a light blue tongue. Its vivid coloration is a result of the garbage it eats, which causes chemical changes in its body; these same chemical changes are thought to be the cause of its unending hunger. It's unexpectedly quiet and friendly, but if it is not fed trash for a while, its hunger will compel it to destroy its Trainer's furnishings for food. The crystals covering its body have a tendency to break off, which makes it extremely difficult to deal with due to the concentrated toxins contained within them. This variant of Muk does not produce the foul stench that the standard version is infamous for.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-ca/pokemon/alolan-muk/ Pokémon Sun and Moon]</ref>
Muk can be found in heavily polluted bodies of water, {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|factories and cities}}, where groups can gather to consume trash that people throw away into the streets. However, Muk's population has declined due to recent environmental improvements and extermination efforts. This has led some to believe that it will go extinct at some point; sludge ponds are being built to prevent its extinction.


==In the anime==
Prior to [[Generation IV]], Muk and its pre-evolved form, Grimer, were the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that could have {{a|Stench}} as an [[Ability]].
[[File:Team Plasma Muk.png|left|thumb|250px|Muk in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Muk]]====
{{Ash}} captured a Muk in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. It was transferred to {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]]. Ash's Muk is always trying to smother Prof. Oak. The first time Ash used his Muk in battle was in ''[[EP077|The Fourth Round Rumble]]'', as a trump card against a {{p|Bellsprout}} that had already defeated his {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}.


====Other====
===Forms===
A Muk appeared under the ownership of [[Attila]] during ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''. Muk was used to stop [[Vincent's Meganium]] and [[Jimmy's Typhlosion]] from freeing {{p|Raikou}}, but it was defeated by [[Little Miss]].
Muk has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Alolan}} Muk.


Six Muk appeared in ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'' where they had invaded [[Lake Psyduck]] before being sent back to their original lake.
{{rf|Alolan}} Muk has a more vibrant coloration, consisting of green, pink, and yellow stripes with thin blue bands in between. The green, yellow, and pink stripes are capable of shifting downwards while the blue stays in place. It has various white, crystallized poison shards protruding from parts of its body, especially from its mouth and fingers, giving the impression of claws and fangs. It has blue eyes with a black space behind them and a bright blue tongue. Its vivid coloration is a result of the garbage it eats, which causes chemical changes in its body. Its body contains over a hundred different kinds of poisons. Chemical reactions of different poisons occurring within its body is the source of Alolan Muk's vitality.


A Muk appeared in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' under the ownership of a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} which was used to battle {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} and was defeated by [[Iris's Excadrill]] with a {{m|Focus Blast}}
Alolan Muk is unexpectedly quiet and friendly. However, if it is not fed trash for a while, its hunger will compel it to destroy its Trainer's furnishings for food. It is thought that it cannot maintain its energy without a constant source of toxins, which causes its voracious appetite. The crystals covering its body have a tendency to break off, which makes it extremely difficult to deal with due to the concentrated toxins contained within them. Unlike Kantonian Muk, Alolan Muk does not produce a foul stench due to its toxins being contained within its body.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-ca/pokemon/alolan-muk/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Alolan Muk]</ref> Alolan Muk preys on {{p|Trubbish}} and {{p|Garbodor}}. They can also be found in the [[Coastal Biome]] of [[Blueberry Academy]]'s [[Terarium]], where Alola's island life is simulated.


===Minor appearances===
Alolan Muk and its pre-evolved form, Alolan {{p|Grimer}}, are the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Power of Alchemy}} as an [[Ability]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Although Muk's body is very poisonous, it doesn't seem to harm {{Ash}} and the others when {{AP|Muk}} is 'hugging' them. This is probably because it is able to control whether it gives off poison or not, similar to how {{p|Ponyta}} can choose whether or not to burn the person that touches it. {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} is another Pokémon which is able to control the amount of poison it uses via its fingertips when using Poison Jab, or {{p|Sharpedo}} activating its Ability, {{a|Rough Skin}}.
* Muk shares similar traits to {{p|Weezing}} and {{p|Garbodor}}. All three {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are pure {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with a single pre-evolved form, roughly the same base stat totals and evolution levels, and appear to be based on a different kind of pollution; Muk being water pollution.

===Origin===
It appears to be a pile of living sludge. Muk may also be based on the imagined fear that heavy pollution, caused by the leakage and/or improper disposal of toxic/radioactive waste, may result in the creation of new and undesirable life.

It may also be based on the imagined fear that heavy pollution, caused by the leakage and/or improper disposal of toxic/radioactive waste, may result in the creation of new and undesirable life. It may also be based on ''Dorotabō'', a one-eyed, three-fingered ''{{wp|yōkai}}'' that rises from the mud of neglected, overgrown rice fields.


Alolan Muk may be based on an {{wp|oil slick}}, particularly the rainbow colors it produces when it mixes with water.
Alolan Muk may be based on an {{wp|oil slick}}, particularly the rainbow colors that are produced when a thin layer of oil floats on top of water; this is due to a phenomenon called {{wp|thin-film interference}}. In the real world, oil spills are a major threat to ecosystems in the world's oceans and particularly in Hawaii, which Alola is based on.
