Strategy & play

How Alolan Muk-GX plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Crunch) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Hits for 120 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Darkness type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥110 effectively one-shots it.
  • A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
  • Retreat cost 4 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Alolan Muk-GX

  • Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥110 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
