Summary

Munchlax is a Normal-type Pokémon known for its insatiable appetite and laid-back demeanor. It is often considered a pre-evolution to one of the franchise's beloved classic Pokémon, Snorlax. Introduced in Generation IV, Munchlax has become a fan favorite due to its endearing characteristics and unique evolution method.

Type: Normal

Abilities: - Pickup: This ability allows Munchlax to collect items after a battle if it is not holding anything. The item picked up is based on the game's internal mechanics, which could be a random item depending on the game specifics. - Thick Fat: This reduces damage from Fire-type and Ice-type moves by 50%, making it more resilient against these types of attacks. - Hidden Ability (Gluttony): This ability allows Munchlax to eat a held Berry earlier than usual, at a third of its maximum HP instead of the usual half.
