Although Sprout reappeared in the Japanese version of the Stitch! anime and was mentioned by Jumba who still lives on Kauai, he instead has a son named Sproutling, codename: Experiment 509-A. He first appeared in "Son of Sprout" because he was born via Sprout planting to the meteor. Following his birth, Sproutling carried out his father's original programming before eventually being neutralized.
