Ash had to find a Thunderstone as part of a scavenger hunt in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''. He came across a young man in possession of one who tried to toss it to him from a long distance. The Thunderstone nearly came in contact with Pikachu but he jumped out of the way just in time leaving Ash to catch it.

Evolutionary stones do not seem to be required for evolution in the anime as they are in the games. [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by Team Rocket#Victreebel|James's second Weepinbell]] evolved without a Leaf Stone in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', though this may just be an example of [[anime physics]]. In addition, Pokémon that evolve via proximity of evolutionary stones apparently seem to control their evolutionary urges and physically touch the stone without evolving, as evidenced by Pikachu whacking away the Thunderstone when refusing to evolve the first time, as well as a Clefairy holding onto a Moon Stone for prolonged periods of time before delivering it to the larger Moon Stone without evolving.
