Keenan rushed {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} into his home after they mentioned the "golden {{p|Sudowoodo}}" around a group of rowdy patrons. He explained to them that the Sudowoodo was actually his, providing a photograph as proof. Keenan later clarified that Sudowoodo was turned gold as a result of one of his experiments to improve its resistance to {{t|Water}} Pokémon and attacks. The revelation clarified Sudowoodo's particularly shy behavior around Keenan. Still the group offered to help Keenan reunite with Sudowoodo.


Keenan explained to them that the Sudowoodo was actually his.  At first he said that his Sudowoodo was naturally golden and even had pictures of him with it.  However, Sudowoodo did not look happy in the picture. When the group asks why he didn't return it to its [[Poké Ball]] he became nervous.
{{TRT}} were also after the mysterious golden Sudowoodo. Keenan valiant attempts to protect Sudowoodo against [[Team Rocket's mechas|Team Rocket's mecha]] led Sudowoodo to realize Keenan's good heart. Sudowoodo stepped forward and destroyed the mecha with a headbutt before [[Ash's Pikachu]] sent Team Rocket blasting off. Afterwards, Keenan was able to revert Sudowoodo back its typical coloration with another experiment.
 
Later on Ash and friends help Keenan look for Sudowoodo and they eventually find it.  When it saw Keenan, it got frightened and ran away.  Now the group was more suspicious then ever.  Keenan finally admits that Sudowoodo changed to gold during a science experiment.  He was trying to figure out a way to make Sudowoodo immune to {{type2|Water}} attacks.
 
They later find Sudowoodo being attacked by [[Team Rocket]] once again.  Keenan attempts to defend his Sudowoodo by attacking Team Rocket's mecha with a shovel.  When the robot moves, he grabs on to its leg.  Keenan then starts to apologize to Sudowoodo for what he did and that now he would do anything to protect it. Sudowoodo becomes touched by this and then attacks Team Rocket in order to defend its {{pkmn|trainer}}.  Sudowoodo destroys the mecha and Pikachu sends Team Rocket blasting off again.  
 
Later Keenan conducts another experiment on Sudowoodo to try to change it back to normal.  The experiment worked and Sudowoodo was its normal self again.
