Grimer Pokédex Information
Grimer is a Poison type Pokémon that first appeared in the games Pokémon Red and Blue which released in Japan on 12th September 1999. It evolves to Muk.
Grimer is a blob of purple and grey poisonous sludge that likely represents pollution. It is roughly dome shaped with two projections at each side which form arms that each have hands with three digits. It has two bulbous white eyes and a large cavernous mouth that is grey inside. Born from sludge, these Pokémon now gather in polluted places and increase the bacteria in their bodies.
When found in the Alola region, it takes on a different form. Alolan Grimer is a Poison / Dark type Pokémon and is shorter and lighter than its regular counterpart. While its overall form remains the same, its body is now light green with darker green lines. Its mouth has a rim of yellow sludge, while its tongue is blue. It has a passion for trash above all else, speedily digesting it and creating brilliant crystals of sparkling poison.
