slimes are common monsters in RPG scenarios, walking piles of garbage aren't. Honestly Garbodor could have been a neat concept if he was like Spinda in the sense that each one of them is visually unique since they are made of random garbage
I can think of a dozen walking garbage monsters from both jrpg games and especially from tokusatsu and Kaiju series, yes literal trash like Garbodor, I'm not thinking of sludge like Hedorah. You just aren't really familiar with pokemon's main cultural inspirations.
I actually hate both - and I AM a genwunner. Was never a fan of Objectmons in general - I prefer my Pocket Monsters to look like actual MONSTERS, not literal garbage or sewage.
Been doing that for decades, alongside Pokemon and other games. That has nothing to do with the topic, though. Pokemon are better when they look like actual monsters or animals, not animated trash bags or balls of raw sewage.
The point of the design is to finish the pollution theme. Muk is water pollution, Weezing is air and Garbodor is land. People just jump to shit on Unova without putting an ounce of thought into the designs. Vanilluxe's meme being MUH ICECREAM is another example because it's a snow/ice covered stalagtite with ice cream inspiration. Much like how Slurpuff is a dog with cupcake inspiration
>Muk is cool
No anon... No... Tajiri never designed Muk to look cool... What are you smoking?
Muk is pretty cool. Liked him in the anime.
Alola Muk is really inventive and cool.
You just can't deny that Muk is cool.
It was one of the first pokemon too.

Now, we only need a regional Garbodor who's environment freindly like Alolan Muk (Eats Trash go keep Alola clean) and Galarian Weezing (Eats polluted air, then release Pure air from it's top (Basically a tree))
Pokemon designs take inspiration from many sources. Mythology, inanimate objects, people, animals and ocupations to name a few.
Garbodor obviously takes inspiration from the average Gankerner.
>hurr muk and garbodor are the same thing guise
no. toxic waste is not the same thing a trash bag.
you can walk over bags of trash but you ain't going anywhere near toxic waste.
GARBADOR IS BASED ON A GUMBEROO FROM AMERICAN FOLK TALES.
Gumberoos are bear like creatures (bears rumage through garbage and garbador has bear like ears) with BLACK RUBBER LIKE SKIN (like a TRASH BAG).
There are numerous other connections to the gumberoo in garbadors design, and i would like to outline a few.
For one, the gumberoo is prey to a creature called the Timberdoodle who "clamps down its teeth and will not let go until thunder is heard, is the second weakness of the Gumberoo and the only animal the bear fears. Because of this, the Gumberoo is a coward when its rubbery skin is bitten."
This is LITERALLY what alolan Muk does to garbador with it's teeth.
Garbadors hidden ability, aftermath, (and the fact it knows self destruct & explosion) also refrence how the gumberoo is known to explode if hit with fire.
Garbador is a fricking genius design and its stench has gone RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES.
I would like to add that the gumberoo eats anything it finds, and that this behavior and the overall design of a gumberoo makes me believe that Guzzlord, is also based on a gumberoo, as it is explicitly stated to have rubberlike skin and a big appetite.
This is definitely coincidence. Garbodor's ears are supposed to make it look like a "dust bunny" or a big rodent, since Trubbish is a stealth Pikaclone.
to mating press Wormadam-Trash
>hates garbodor
>defends muk
genwunners everyone
Muk is actually cool and clever.
>A walking sludge
>Genwun
>Wowowowww that's so clever and cool I love it I would frick it XDXDXD
>A walking trash heap
>not genwun
What's with this crap? I can't even get hard looking at this!
You can't just blame all your problems on Kanto.
You can't just blame all your problems on anything unrelated to Kanto
Muk is just cool.
Garbodor is just ugly.
Most people would agree.
Garbodor feels like the devs are scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas.
>Muk is cool
No anon... No... Tajiri never designed Muk to look cool... What are you smoking?

Muk is superior sadly. I especially like the one Ash caught. Garbador is just garbage. And we already had a better trash themed pokémon (muk)
Fyi Garbodor is better than Muk Muk looks like a pile of poo not a pile of sludge
garbodor looks like a pile of tumours lol
Ah what is tumours???????
Taters, precious
Here's your Muk a pile of poo
why did you post a picture of your face?
That's muk
Disgusting
Ewwwwwww
stop being hypocrite
I don't think you know what that word means.
your going to defend muk?
which is more moronic than garbodor
>your going to defend muk
No, but you're clearly an ESL.
And? Being EFL doesn't give you any advantage, whitoid
Muk is actually clever and cool.
Nobody mentioned muk until you
>hates garbodor
>defends muk
hypocrisy
actually garbodor is better then muk and grimer
I actually hate both - and I AM a genwunner. Was never a fan of Objectmons in general - I prefer my Pocket Monsters to look like actual MONSTERS, not literal garbage or sewage.
go play monster hunter
Been doing that for decades, alongside Pokemon and other games. That has nothing to do with the topic, though. Pokemon are better when they look like actual monsters or animals, not animated trash bags or balls of raw sewage.
>replying to namebot
like I said go play monster hunter stories
and also what the frick is balls of raw sewage?????
>and also what the frick is balls of raw sewage?????
Just what do you think sludge is, exactly? Muk and Grimer are literally living blobs of animated fecal material mixed with other debris.
Ewwwwwww
What are you, five? Grow the frick up.
no, he's just a schizo ESL that we suspect is actually a bot
>I prefer my Pocket Monsters to look like actual MONSTERS
So like this?
He doesn't know what monster looks like
Inanimate objects are one of the biggest and oldest cultural categories of "monster" in Japan so you're lucky it wasn't just an entire type.
He literally did not mention Muk.
I like both.
Alola Muk > Garbodor > Kanto Muk
Both Muk is stupid and looks like a poo
Becayse Unova fuoght for its freedom and is allowed to have its own mons instead of being Kanto's slave.
>Weezing
Smog/air pollution
>Muk
Sludge/water pollution
>Garbodor
Trash, landfill/land pollution
Swalotbros...
Stomach acid, morono
Great. Now we need a Pokemon to represent light pollution and sound pollution
>Light pollution
Ultra Necrozma
>Sound pollution
Toxtricity (or maybe a future regional of Exploud)
Smartest ones in this thread
Absolute moron
It's a good Mon
It's literal garbage.
Muk is pretty cool. Liked him in the anime.
Alola Muk is really inventive and cool.
You just can't deny that Muk is cool.
It was one of the first pokemon too.
>It was one of the first pokemon too.
So Muk is cool only because Gen 1.
Not biased at all.
Next time, you're gonna say Rhydon is a great Pokémon.
The point of the design is being an ugly abomination. It's your problem that you're too moronic to get It.

unironically one of the few gen 5 pokemon that's actually well designed
it's definitely more memorable than dogshit like "cartoon zebra" or "cartoon ant"
I like this pokemon more than the pile of sludge weve got in gen1
Pokemon designs take inspiration from many sources. Mythology, inanimate objects, people, animals and ocupations to name a few.
Garbodor obviously takes inspiration from the average Gankerner.
Muk and Garbodor are among my favorites
Not every design has to be lucario or garchomp, dumbass
Garchomp is just as ugly, if not moreso.
Did Cynthia raped you as a child or something?
Cynthia is fine. Garchomp isn't.
why haters exist????????
Someone post the U.S. Women pasta.
tama kung di mo matangap iba nalang laruin mo wag Pokémon halimbawa monster hunter series o digimon
Muk looks badass, like he'll frick your shit up
Garbador looks literally moronic
You don't know what badass means lol
Your moron if you prefer Muk than garbodor
>garbodor not moronic
lol just look at it's face
>HHUUUURRRRRR
now like a this sleek slimy boy, he gonna frick you up
I prefer garbodor Muk looks moronic
that's a fine opinion, but you can't deny that garbodor looks like a mouthbreathing moron
Not the same as Muk more of a mouthbreathing moron
muk has sleek eyes and large gaping mouth of sludge. garbodor has wide, un-menacing eyes with soi-mouth
Also Muk is more disgusting than garbodor hahaha
ironically looks cleaner
Garbodor is a cute trashy
It's not a sludge it's a poo
Muk is more moronic admit it dude
>hurr muk and garbodor are the same thing guise
no. toxic waste is not the same thing a trash bag.
you can walk over bags of trash but you ain't going anywhere near toxic waste.
garbodor goes hard you're just built soft

Agree Muk looks like a poo
>namegay
Discarded
Correct. Muk is colored like Poison. Garbador literally looks like green and brown shit.
Reality poison has many kinds of colors so your point makes no sense
Wrong Garbodor is better than Muk Muk looks like a pile of poo not a pile of sludge
Reality poison has many kinds of colors so your point makes no sense
Not pile of sludge
But
Pile of poo
Because it's adorable and I love it. Frick the haters how can you hate that dumb stupid face.
>the bot thinks it's fooling people by changing it's name
Cry Genwunners
Muk is disgusting moronic gay b***h
Muk is Gen 7. Cry about it
Muk is gen 1 lol
Your not a fan of Pokemon go home
