Munchlax is a small heavy-eating Pokémon that was introduced in the fourth generation games as the baby form of Snorlax.
Information
Munchlax is a small Pokémon that is covered in thick body fur. It eats its weight in food on a daily basis and will often swallow food with little to no chewing. In its desperation to find food, it will often hide food under its long body hair, but it also often forgets about said food later. They seem to be particularly attracted to honey, if the fourth generation method of capturing them is any indication. It is uncertain from the Pokédex entries alone whether or not Munchlax sleeps often, like its evolved from does.
A Munchlax is born to a Snorlax that is bred while holding Full Incense. A Munclax evolves into Snorlax when it levels up after maxing out its happiness.
