Strategy & play

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

  • A Basic — hits the board turn 1 with no evolution tax.
  • Inflicts Poison — guaranteed chip damage every turn between turns (no coin flip). It stacks with your attack math to cross KO thresholds the attack alone misses.
  • Inflicts Paralysis — the Defending Pokémon can’t attack or retreat for a turn. A reliable one-turn lock; chain it to stall the opponent out.
  • Its main attack (Poison Absorption) 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 Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.

How to beat Muk & Alolan Muk-GX

  • Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥135 damage one-shots it.
  • Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
  • On the receiving end of a condition? Retreat, switch, or evolve to wipe it — conditions only stick to the Active.
