Strategy & play
How Alolan Muk 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.
- Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Psychic type, weak to Psychic ×2 — a Psychic attacker doing ≥60 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
- Retreat cost 4 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
- A Stage 1 — one step up from Alolan Grimer; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
How to beat Alolan Muk
- Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

How can I tell if my Alolan Muk is real?
