Almost nobody uses Munna in battle. It exists to evolve into Musharna, which is a completely different story. Get it there and you won't regret it. Only weak to Bug, Ghost, and Dark. Known as the Dream Eater Pokemon.

HP and Sp. Atk carry most of Munna's stat budget. Speed's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 HP EV. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.

Level-up moves are just the starting point for Munna. TMs unlock Fairy and Grass coverage and more and turn a straightforward STAB kit around Future Sight and Dream Eater into something with actual range.

Egg Moves

Tutor Moves

Munna can't learn any Tutor moves

Munna can't be caught in Legends: Z-A. Bring it over from Black, Black 2, or Sword instead. The encounter info below covers the source games.

Munna is not available as a wild encounter in this game.

Also found in:

  • Munna is meant to evolve into Musharna. At 292 BST, the stats aren't there for competitive play yet. Pre-evolution Pokemon rarely hold up against fully evolved threats.

  • Watch for Pinsir (Bug), Dusknoir (Ghost), and Hydreigon (Dark) when using Munna. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. At base 24 Speed, Munna won't outrun any of these threats so switching to a resist is usually the safer play.

  • Munna evolves into Musharna using a Moon Stone. Munna is the base form of this evolutionary line.

  • Forewarn reveals the opponents' strongest move upon entering battle — that's the one you want on Munna. Telepathy is the hidden ability. Niche, but it has its uses. Synchronize works too if your team needs something different.

  • Base 24 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. On offense, Munna is a special attacker with base 67 Sp. Atk.

  • Munna appears in 8 games, including Black & White, Black 2 & White 2, and X & Y.

Munna joined the series in Black & White and has been available in 8 titles so far. With 5 generations of appearances, it's established itself despite the later start.
