In ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]'', Ash and {{ashfr}} were traveling through [[Gringey City]], which was in the midst of a power failure. The local power plant was being overrun by the mysterious {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} {{p|Grimer}}. After the swarm was located, the Grimer's leader, a Muk, came and challenged the group, immediately ordering the Grimer to capture Ash, Misty, and Brock, whom they started chasing as a result. However, the vast numbers of {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} in the city combined attacks to clear out the Grimer, leaving only Muk. With the aid of {{AP|Pikachu}} and a {{p|Magnemite}} that was following it due to an electrical build up, Ash defeated and captured the Muk. It was then immediately sent to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] because its stench was so rancid that it could seep through the {{i|Poké Ball}}. However, Muk's horrid smell seemed to have disappeared by its later appearances as neither Ash, nor anyone around him, was affected by it.

Muk reappeared in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' when Ash, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, and {{Gary}} visited Professor Oak's Laboratory.

While in the wild, Muk was very aggressive, as shown by it ordering its {{p|Grimer}} followers to attack and chase down {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} in the power plant where it was first encountered. It was an absolutely violent, vituperative Pokémon, willing to knock down and possibly even devour anyone, human or Pokémon, who stood in its way.

However, after its capture, Muk's personality seemed to shift. It became an extremely happy and affectionate Pokémon. It is particularly affectionate towards {{an|Professor Oak}} and as a recurring gag first seen in ''[[EP050|Who Gets To Keep Togepi?]]'', it would always smother the Professor whenever Ash would make a call to the [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]].
