Summary
Pyukumuku
Pyukumuku is a Water-type Pokémon celebrated for its distinctive look and abilities.
Type: Water
Abilities:
- Innards Out: Pyukumuku inflicts damage equal to its remaining HP on the opponent upon fainting.
- Unaware: It disregards the opponent Pokémon's stat alterations in both dealing and receiving damage scenarios.
- Hidden Ability: Unseen Fist: Pyukumuku doesn't naturally possess this ability. The ability is generally irrelevant since Pyukumuku cannot learn physical-based moves.
Physical Characteristics:
- Exhibiting a likeness to a sea cucumber, Pyukumuku primarily displays a black hue with a white underbelly.
- Its mouth, which it can extrude from its body for offensive or defensive actions, is a distinguishable feature.
- Pyukumuku has a distinctive pink organ, often mistaken for its guts, that it employs as a hand.
Behavior and Habitat:
- Pyukumuku is notable for its unconventional behavior of expelling its innards to launch an attack.
- Habitually, it is found residing in the ocean or on beaches.
In Battle:
- The Innards Out ability of Pyukumuku can inflict notable damage on the opponent upon defeat.
- It doesn't have offensive maneuvers and is therefore often utilized as a defensive tank to delay opponents in battle.
Evolution:
- Pyukumuku neither evolves from nor into any other Pokémon species.
Interesting Facts:
- The moniker 'Pyukumuku' is derived from 'pukupuku', a Japanese onomatopoeic expression indicating a swelling form, thus alluding to its puffing ability.
- Its peculiar look and behavior notwithstanding, Pyukumuku enjoys popularity among certain Alola inhabitants within the Pokémon world, even earning a dedicated fan club.
- According to Pokémon world beliefs, returning a Pyukumuku found on the beach to the sea is associated with good fortune.

Flavor Text Entries
- Shield: It’s covered in a slime that keeps its skin moist, allowing it to stay on land for days without drying up.
- Sun: It lives in shallow seas, such as areas near a beach. It can eject its internal organs, which it uses to engulf its prey or battle enemies.
- Moon: These Pokémon line the beaches. The sticky mucous that covers their bodies can be used to soothe sunburned skin. How convenient!
- Ultra-Sun: The tradition known as Pyukumuku chucking started from the custom of throwing Pyukumuku back into the sea after they wash onshore.
- Ultra-Moon: Its entire body is covered in its own slime. If you accidentally step on one, you’ll slip, and it will get mad and smack you!
- Sword: It lives in warm, shallow waters. If it encounters a foe, it will spit out its internal organs as a means to punch them.
