Isn't it possible that the gabbits and mudokons have some kind of bond between them. I mean sure in MO abe needed Munch's help in saving the eggs, but why a gabbit? Why not just pick some other specie out of the random? Or maybe another fellow mudokon that can use some natural oddworldian object which he can use to travel in water. Why would abe even care about Munch? In what I remember in the last FMV in MO the moons were next to each other. There must be a purpose for that. Anyway that is my theory.

Some kind of bond between the Gabbits and Mudokons seems possible.
Munch's Exoddus was going to have explored the dysfunctional relationship between the two races. I suspect part of that would have been the Mudokons living on the Mongo River worshiping the annual return of the Gabbits to Ma'Spa.
As for why Munch is so necessary, I suppose it does come down to fate. The Almighty Raisin explains that its their destinies that lie together. More pragmatically, I suppose, is the fact that, having been captured by the Vykkers, Munch is the perfect candidate for wanting revenge on them and rescuing the Fuzzles. He's more wont to feelings of vengence, whereas Mudokons tend to be rather naïve and pathetic. The moons seem to be indicative of this fate between the two individuals, but as far as we know they've had no bearing on the two races as a whole.
I do think that, maybe, more of Munch's uniqueness and importance might have been left out of
Munch's Oddysee because of familiar excuses, maybe such as his transformations into Roid and his ability to scour Vykkers Labs while he was kept as a lab animal - he would have met or seen Sam, for instance.
