A One-Stick Wonder!

S25, E11: Ash and Goh are in the Galar region’s Wild Area as Goh continues his quest to catch every kind of Pokémon. They make curry for dinner, hoping the delicious smell will attract wild Pokémon. A Thwackey appears, and it gets along well with Goh’s Grookey, but it has a problem—it has only one stick instead of the usual two, so it can’t keep up with the drumming of the other Thwackey in its troop. Inspired by Grookey, the Thwackey practices until it’s able to tap just as fast—or faster—using its single stick. As it rejoins its troop, Goh considers letting Grookey stay with them—what will it decide?
