UM	Because they scatter germs everywhere, they’ve long been targeted for extermination, leading to a steep decline in their population.
R	From MUK’s body seeps a foul fluid that gives off a nose-bendingly horrible stench. Just one drop of this POKéMON’s body fluid can turn a pool stagnant and rancid.

B R LG	Thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
