It has saucer-like eyes, and a gray mouth. Grimer may be distantly related to Koffing, another Pokémon that is associated with pollution. Grimer emits a very pungent, noisome odor. Since Grimer's body lacks a solid form, it can slip through the smallest of openings. Grimer's germ-infested entrails cause the ground that it passes over to be unable to bear any plant life. As far as Grimer's skills in battle are concerned, Grimer mainly attacks by flinging poisonous Sludge (or mud) at its foes. Grimer can also wield fire, electricity, and various Ghost-type attacks. (Unconfirmed!) Grimer thrive anywhere there is pollution. Grimer tend to feed on sludge, sewage, and other filthy things. It appears to be a pile of living sludge. Grimer's name seems to be a corruption of "grime", dirt.
