Smells so awful, it can cause fainting. Through degeneration of its nose, it lost its sense of smell.
Because they scatter germs everywhere, they’ve long been targeted for extermination, leading to a steep decline in their population.
Their food sources have decreased, and their numbers have declined sharply. Sludge ponds are being built to prevent their extinction.
After recent environmental improvements, this Pokémon is now hardly seen at all. People speculate that it may go extinct at some point.
The stench it gives off will make your nose scrunch up. Still, there are Muk fans who think that’s a good thing.
It’s so stinky! Muk’s body contains toxic elements, and any plant will wilt when it passes by.
