Aloha Muk seems more viable than regular Muk.

Is there going to be a trade-off for better typing (Poison/Dark) or are they going to buff Muk?

I would hate to see the ol' Purple Sludge go obsolete.

Wasn't Muk supposed to be unbearably smelly? Was it only mentioned and acknowledged once and never after that?
>>
>>29144220
We'll have to see what his stats are. It seems likely alola forms are getting different stats since the pokedex makes a point of iceslash being slower than regular sandslash.
>>
>>29144220
This new entry says that these Alola Muk don't smell like anything since all that stench is stored in the body
>>
>>29144220
Muk was only shown to be smelly in the indigo league. I think a grimer was shown in the gen 4 anime but never seemed to bother people with bad smell. Apparently the new Muk form doesn't smell bad according to the website.
>>
>>29144197
Good if not better type but holy shit the form design is obnoxious, like if Muk wasn't already meant to be so but fuck the Alolan form colors.

Also wanted it to have Oblivious, well Rest Talk
Payback that can Poison is enough too, just slap a Maranga Berry on it or Assault Vest if you want it to be more dynamic in battle.
>>
>>29144197
Would be fun if it had an usable speed and sp atk and stench stacked with Dark Pulse.
>>
>>29144197
Well, it lost resistance to both Fighting and Fairy. Immunity to Psychic doesn't mean much to me aside from the occasional Mewtwo.
Alola Forms will hopefully have more min-maxing to better fit a niche, but not necessarily the same niche.

It has the Stench ability. Alolan Muk doesn't because it is said to not be smelly, unlike normal Muk.

Pokemon sizes really mess with my head.

I think Regional Variants will have the same BST but different distribution

That's what I'm hoping for.

> 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.

>>29144197
The only pro is that it's no longer psychic weak

In exchange it's now neutral to bug, Fairy, and fighting.

It's Dark typing hurt way more than it helped.
>>
>>29144516
didn't give primeape in that fighting tournament episode?
>>
>>29144426
WAIT HE GOT HIS PRIMEAPE BACK FROM THE DOJO!? WHAT!?
>>
>>29144768

STAB Sucker Punch hopefully though.
>>
>>29144197
>better typing

That's not super correct. Probably a little better, but you are neutral to fairy and neutral to fighting which is a pretty huge loss, and the main things you gain is resistance to psychic and ghost which aren't that common attacking types. Being neutral to bug can be hit or miss, u turn sucks more, but you don't see bug buzz too often.

I know it just sounds better to say "but it's only weak to ground!" but it also doesn't have many great resistances any more. Either way ground weakness is by far muk's biggest concern, and neither type combos help against that
>>
>>29145228

Actually, I forgot that dark also resists dark. In "knock off" the meta, that's a really nice boon
>>
>>29145101
Stab knock off too right? Or does Muk not get that

Stats:
105/105/75/50/65/100

How good would it be?
>>
>>29147011
terrible
>>
>>29147024
Then come up with a better one by redistributing Muk's stats
>>
>>29147011
I don't think speed should be given a stat redistribution buff instead of defenses or offense

Muk isn't going to be fast-sweeping any time soon

A Muk is going to go full physical

It's stats actually would be better as unchanged with this typing.

That was an animation error. People freaked out about that so much when it aired, too.

With the point it makes of saying it slides on its belly on ice Courageous Cold or "Always Moves First In Hail" would be good.

I want hail to be good
