Biology

This section does not yet meet the quality standards of Bulbapedia. Please feel free to edit this section to make it conform to Bulbapedia norms and conventions.

Thwackey is a bipedal humanoid monkey with a light-green colored body, and a lighter green for its face mask and chest marking. Its ears, arms, and tail are dark brown, and its two large eyes are yellow in color. It has dark green bands around its wrists, and a stick holding up a tuft of leaves resembling hair on its head. When it removes the sticks, the leaves resemble a fan, with dark green on the ends. It has several sharp teeth.

It now carries two sticks compared to its previous evolutionary stage, which it uses to keep rhythm. It devotes itself entirely to this practice in order to be able to drum faster and longer than anyone else. It may even become so focused on practicing that it cannot hear the orders of its Trainer. To further develop its sense of rhythm, it constantly uses it in daily life. It can always feel a beat, and it walks while swaying back and forth to this beat, along with drumming with its sticks. Some Thwackeys have been seen to also keep rhythm while eating. ^[1]
