Ash catches a rice ball donut!
A rice ball (Japanese: 御握り, おにぎり onigiri) is a snack that appears in the Pokémon anime many times and, in the dub, under a variety of different names. Brock makes them fairly often, and they are frequently used in gags.
To give the snack a name which American children would be more familiar with, the dub has referred to them as such things as jelly donuts and popcorn balls. During the Hoenn League, the 4Kids dub replaced giant rice balls with large sandwiches, which was not received well by the fanbase. When Pokémon USA started dubbing the series, all rice balls were no longer edited.
Glalie bears a resemblance to these snacks, and its Japanese name even sounds similar to the word onigiri.
