Muk.
# 089.
Type: Poison.
Ability: Stench/Sticky hold.
Locations: Evolve Grimer, Pokémon Mansion (LeafGreen).
Hi everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the Week. Yesterday
was a big day in Pokémon World as D&P versions came out, so we
now have a lot more Pokémon. Today we’re reviewing this… Thing?
Its name is Muk.
This Pokémon has good high HP and Special defense, however it
has horrible defense and speed as well. Muk is somehow compared
to Snorlax because of the curse move. This Pokémon is good
enough for a tank so that’s going to be Muk’s main strategy.
Both abilities are horrible, but I think it is best to use
Sticky Hold, as the other one does absolutely nothing for you in
battle.
Now, we’re having two move combinations this week; the Tank and
the subpuncher.
Muk.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special attack).
Equip: Chesto berry.
EV´s: 170 Attack, 170 Special defense, 170 HP.
- Curse
- Rest
- Sludge bomb
- Brick break
If you know how to use this one then you’ll have time to
reorganize your battle in extreme cases. This one’s a sweeper
but also a good tank. Curse a couple of times and then brick
break or sludge bomb for sweeping. Rest when necessary and wake
up with chesto. If you’re facing ghosts, try HP ghost instead of
brick break.
Muk.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special attack).
Equip: Leftovers.
EV´s: 252 HP, 252 Attack, 6 Defense.
- Substitute
- Focus punch
- Sludge bomb
- HP ghost
The subpuncher works the same as the others. You might want to
try Cursing with this one as well as your substitute is working,
Toxic would be a nice surprise too.
When should I use this Pokémon?
I can’t suggest this one over Snorlax, but if you really want to
try something different then good luck…
What should I use against this Pokémon?
The all mighty psychics; Metagross or Alakazam would be perfect.
Bottom line:
Good, but not good enough, just one of those Pokémon that you
might like or not hate…
Rating:
2/5
Hope you enjoyed.
Reeve.
