Pong Krell was a Besalisk. They’re large, four-armed people that come from the planet, Ojom. Another popular Besalisk can be seen in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. Obi-Wan Kenobi meets up with his friend, Dexter Jettster. Dex is a Besalisk who runs a diner, and he was the one who gave Obi-Wan the tip to go to Kamino. While Dex was fairly overweight and clunky, Pong Krell was incredibly athletic and strong. While I always assumed all Besalisks looked like Dex, Pong Krell’s appearance proved to me that people of the species can look quite different.
