Munch and his fellow Freedom Fighters had two encounters with members of the Chaotix some time after their original leader, Rob o' the Hedge, went into hiding. The first time, they met Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel shortly after the pair arrived in Mercia looking for Mighty's lost sister. After providing the pair with what information they could, Munch and his comrades prepared to join them in invading Snottingham Castle, headquarters of the Mercia Dark Egg Legion. However, a surprise attack on Deerwood Forest changed their plans, and after helping the Freedom Fighters rebuff the assault, the pair went off to invade the castle alone.
