In ''[[SM068|Real Life...Inquire Within!]]'', they attacked Ash, keen on stealing his {{AP|Poipole}}. The battle ended when his Garbodor's arm got blocked and released a horrible smell. Later that day, Ash and his classmates worked at a [[Pokémon Center]] for a work experience project for school. During his day there, Ash spotted Zipp outside of the Center and noticed that the Team Skull Grunt was reluctant to go inside. Understanding the situation, Ash forcibly dragged Zipp inside and made him bring out Garbodor so that it could receive proper treatment for the poison build-up that blocked its arm. Together with the help of a [[Nurse Joy]] from [[Akala Island]], Ash and his classmates cleared the blockage. Afterward, Zipp reluctantly thanked them and left while stealing a tool to help prevent another blockage incident. | In ''[[SM068|Real Life...Inquire Within!]]'', they attacked Ash, keen on stealing his {{AP|Poipole}}.
