Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

Red / Blue / LeafGreenThickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison.
YellowSmells so awful, it can cause fainting. Through degeneration, it lost its sense of smell.
GoldThey love to gath­ er in smelly areas where sludge ac­ cumulates, making the stench around them worse.
SilverIts body is made of a powerful poi­ son. Touching it accidentally will cause a fever that requires bed rest.
CrystalAs it moves, a very strong poison leaks from it, making the ground there barren for three years.
RubyFrom 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.
SapphireThis POKéMON’s favorite food is anything that is repugnantly filthy. In dirty towns where people think nothing of throwing away litter on the streets, MUK are certain to gather.
EmeraldIt prefers warm and humid habitats. In the summertime, the toxic substances in its body intensify, making MUK reek like putrid kitchen garbage.
FireRedIt is usually undetectable because it blends in with the ground. Touching it can cause terrible poisoning.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / White / YA toxic fluid seeps from its body. The fluid instantly kills plants and trees on contact.
HeartGold / XThey love to gather in smelly areas where sludge accumulates, making the stench around them worse.
SoulSilverIts body is made of a powerful poison. Touching it accidentally will cause a fever that requires bed rest.
Black 2 / White 2It’s so stinky! Muk’s body contains toxic elements, and any plant will wilt when it passes by.
Omega RubyFrom 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.
Alpha SapphireThis Pokémon’s favorite food is anything that is repugnantly filthy. In dirty towns where people think nothing of throwing away litter on the streets, Muk are certain to gather.
SunThe stench it gives off will make your nose scrunch up. Still, there are Muk fans who think that’s a good thing.
MoonAfter recent environmental improvements, this Pokémon is now hardly seen at all. People speculate that it may go extinct at some point.
Ultra SunTheir food sources have decreased, and their numbers have declined sharply. Sludge ponds are being built to prevent their extinction.
Ultra MoonBecause they scatter germs everywhere, they’ve long been targeted for extermination, leading to a steep decline in their population.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
