Petrigunk, the Miasmic tuxemon, is a Wood-type monster.

In the damp corners of old woodland ruins, travelers speak of a creature that rises with the scent of rain. Petrigunk, they say, is born from the first drop that touches dry grass—its leaf sac pulsing with the memory of petrichor. Long ago, herbalists believed its trail could lead to underground springs, while hunters avoided its territory for fear of the "green gunk curse", a lingering toxin said to dull the senses.

Though small and often unseen, Petrigunk is a symbol of nature's quiet defense: not through claws or fangs, but through camouflage, scent, and patience. It is said that those who walk gently through the forest may catch a glimpse of its leaf shifting in the breeze—just before it vanishes into the undergrowth.

Trivia

Name Origin: Petri + Gunk (suggested by Far Too Many Frogs)

Petrichor: The earthy scent released when rain falls on dry soil, evoking damp grasslands and hidden life.

Gunk: A nod to the defensive secretion of stinkbugs, sticky, pungent and unmistakably natural.

Design Origin

Petrigunk was originally inspired by the green stink bug—those leaf-shaped insects that release a pungent defensive spray when disturbed.
