Trivia

Murkrow is the opposite of Togetic. Murkrow brings ill fortune and Togetic brings good fortune, because the Fairy and Dark-types don't get along with each other. The same about them is they have 405 stat total, their evolutions are Flying-type, and they both take a stone to evolve.
Despite Murkrow steals objects (especially rings from women), it can learn Thief only through a TM.

Name origin

The name "Murkrow" is derived from the words murky and crow. It could also be a combination of the words murder and crow, since a group of crows is called a murder. Its Japanese name, Yamikarasu, is a combination of yami (darkness), and yatagarasu, the crow in Japanese mythology that is said to be the embodiment of the sun.
