Muk · Scarlet & Violet 151, what to know.
About the Muk card
Muk is card 89 of 207 in Scarlet & Violet 151, released in September 2023, an Uncommon. It is a Stage 1 Darkness-type with 150 HP.
As a Stage 1, it evolves from Grimer, which places Muk deeper in its line and means most collectors hold it alongside the cards it evolves from.

The Pokédex entry printed on Muk reads: "It's thickly covered with a filthy, vile sludge. It is so toxic, even its footprints contain poison."
About Muk in the Pokémon world
The fully evolved Grimer. Larger sludge mound. Fossil holo Muk is a quietly underrated card. Its Pokémon Power 'Toxic Gas' was a tournament-defining mechanic in 1999, which means surviving high-grade copies are scarcer than the print run suggests.
What is Muk worth?
Muk is an Uncommon, so raw copies are inexpensive and easy to find. The value is in condition: a genuine PSA 10, especially 1st Edition, can still reach a surprising figure for an otherwise common card. The live price above breaks it down by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Muk before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Muk grades forgivingly, but the same centering and edge standards apply. Pack-fresh raw copies are easy to find, which makes a clean PSA 10 submission a low-cost way to learn how the cardstock behaves under grading.
If you are collecting Muk
Raw copies of Muk are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Muk is the practical move.
