      Isn't evasion like the lowest boost in the game? Used to be pretty low increase in gen 1.
      25/100 28/100 33/100 40/100 50/100 66/100
      To get up to plus six likely getting wrecked before you do. Kinda pointless after the first 2 stages.
      Pretty strong into Pokémon using like thunder or something though or fire blast. Kinda sucks have a +1 stage though against 100% moves.

    I feel like the important things about Alolan Muk, defensively, are
    - Its typing means it cant be poisoned unless your opponent brings Salazzle
    - It has one weakness to Ground, and its not even a quad weakness
    - Dark also means its immune to Prankster bs
    - Muk is crazy bulky by default and its stat distribution really favors moves like Curse
    - Poison Touch just means it can win against every non poison or steel type by attrition when the stars align

    • @spiritwolf3103
      @spiritwolf3103 7 дней назад

      And don't forget about its hidden ability, Power of Alchemy, in double battles, like pairing it with a Medichan, knocking it out so Muk can use Pure Power, or Dancer from Oricorio so it can also use dancing moves like Dragon Dance while still being able to attack.

    • @WereDictionary
      @WereDictionary 7 дней назад +1

      @@spiritwolf3103 That ability is better used on other pokemon though. Like Receiver Passimian going through the roof if you pair him with Misty Explosion Azumarill and he can inherit Huge Power and activate his Weakness Policy.
      PoA and Receiver are inherently kinda weird to set up and its a doubles only strategy. But I get you - if you can pull it off, it makes Muk even better.

    25:14 That's the curse of alola. I don't think there was a single fast alolan native pokemon except toguedemaro who was protected by armor, cutiefly who managed to protect itself with dust, tapu koko who exists in a terrain of its own not effected by the outside world and lyconrock out of sheer luck.
    Every other fast pokemon introduced in gen 7 where either not native to alola such as the regional variants of kanto pokemon or ultra beasts.
    "What about minior?"
    Ultra sun pokedex answers that question
    " It lives in the ozone layer, where it becomes food for stronger Pokémon. When it tries to run away, it falls to the ground." Out of the curse's range.

    You singlehandedly got me into lower tier mons with Muk back in early Gen 6. And due to thay alolan Muk is one of my all time favorites. Also when's the next pokemon as lyrics video?

    A. Muk's design has grown on me over the years.
    Also black sludge seems like better choice for A. Muk if you're gonna run leftovers. It could punish trick users

    Alolan Muk was a little underrated in it's debut gen frfr. Solid bulk, typing, and utility.

    Fair play to the second guy staying for the full battle! That had rage quit written all over it.
    Also, how have you heard of sticky vicky?!

    Grape Muk never caught my interest but Rainbow Muk is one of my favorite Alolan forms.
