Thwackey (Japanese: バチンキー Bachinkey) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII. It is a bipedal, humanoid monkey Pokémon with a light-green body and lighter green markings on its face and chest. Its ears, arms, and tail are dark brown, and its two large eyes are yellow. It has dark green bands around its wrists and a stick that holds up a tuft of leaves resembling hair on its head. When it removes the sticks, the leaves resemble a mohawk. Thwackey uses its two sticks to create a rhythmic beat. The faster a rhythm Thwackey creates, the more respect it earns from its peers. Often, when it drums out rapid beats in battle, Thwackey will get so caught up in the rhythm that it does not realize its opponent has been knocked out. To further develop its sense of rhythm, it constantly uses it in daily life, feeling a beat and walking while swaying back and forth to it, along with drumming with its sticks.
