She is from Gen 3, the Hoenn region. Munchlax is from Gen 4, the Sinnoh region.

I'm going to leave these here before I fall asleep.

Munchlax appeared in three games before its generation; Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the first Mystery Dungeon and Pokémon Dash.

Although obtainable through hacking in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness as it has an index number, unlike Bonsly it is unusable as it was not programmed to be used in battle.

Munchlax's evolution family is the only one to have all of its members appear from a Poké Ball within a single Super Smash Bros. game.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Munchlax's trophy information states it first appeared in Diamond and Pearl instead of Pokémon Dash. This is a similar case with Bonsly and Togepi.

Munchlax also appeared in Destiny Deoxys. It was common in the Pokemon anime to introduce Pokemon from the next Gen, like Togepi in the Kanto, or Kecleon being in the Silver Conference.
