Trivia

This card's Sticky Goo Poké-BODY is similar to the Pokémon Power of the same name possessed by the Dark Muk from Team Rocket. The two differ significantly, however, in that this card's Poké-BODY works even while Dark Muk is affected by a Special Condition, whereas the Pokémon Power doesn't.

Origin

Acidic Poison may be based on Acid, a move in the Pokémon games, though Muk cannot learn it.
