Summary

Thwackey

Thwackey is a Generation VIII Pokémon, fondly referred to as the Rhythm Pokémon.

Type: Grass

Abilities:

  • Overgrow: This ability boosts the strength of Grass-type moves when the Pokémon's HP decreases.
  • Hidden Ability: Grassy Surge - This ability turns the field into Grassy Terrain, which triggers upon the Pokémon's entrance into battle.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Resembling a monkey, Thwackey sports a predominantly green color.
  • It possesses two drumsticks, which sprout from the back of its head, and utilizes these for rhythm creation.
  • It is bipedal, with a long tail adding to its agility.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Known for its rhythmic prowess, Thwackey uses its drumsticks to maintain a consistent beat.
  • It typically makes its home within forests and other wooded areas.

In Battle:

  • Thwackey possesses a high level of skill in executing physical attacks, most notably those that are Grass type.
  • It can exploit its Grassy Surge ability to enhance the power of Grass-type moves and gradually recuperate the HP of Grass-type Pokémon during combat.

Evolution:

  • Thwackey is an evolutionary form of Grookey, with the transformation occurring at level 16. It further evolves into Rillaboom starting at level 35.

Interesting Facts:

  • The sticks generated by Thwackey have an exceptional effect on plant growth; rapid proliferation of plants can occur when it drums.
  • The name "Thwackey" is a portmanteau of 'thwack'—a verb indicating to hit or strike with force—and 'key', a reference to its rhythmic aptitude.
  • Thwackey may exude an air of light-heartedness and nonchalance, but it is diligent and committed to its daily practice routines.

Flavor Text Entries

  • Sword: The faster a Thwackey can beat out a rhythm with its two sticks, the more respect it wins from its peers.
  • Shield: When it’s drumming out rapid beats in battle, it gets so caught up in the rhythm that it won’t even notice that it’s already knocked out its opponent.
