Which Pokémon is nicknamed Mosslax in Pokémon Pokopia?

The story behind the answer

Mosslax is a Snorlax in Pokémon Pokopia.

The name refers to a special Snorlax that slept for so long that moss and other plants grew over its body. That visual gag turns Snorlax's famous sleeping behavior into a story detail that suits Pokopia's overgrown, abandoned environments.

Mosslax is not a separate species, regional form, or evolution. It is a named individual associated with the Snorlax species. The nickname combines “moss” with “Snorlax,” making the character's condition immediately recognizable while preserving the identity of the Pokémon underneath the vegetation.

Munchlax is Snorlax's pre-evolution, so it is a plausible mix-up, but it is not Mosslax. Slaking and Komala are also sleep-related Pokémon, yet neither is the character described in Pokopia. The key clue is the long sleep that allowed plants to grow over the Pokémon.
