Pinkster Pig is an antagonist in Loonatics Unleashed. He is the great-grandson of Porky Pig, the childhood friend of Danger Duck, a mobster, and an opponent of the Loonatics. Pinkster appeared to be an easy target because of his wide-eyed boyish innocence and stuttering, but this is false.
Like his ancestor Porky, he was voiced by Bob Bergen.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Pinkster Pig grew up in the same orphanage as Danger Duck after their parents passed away. One day, a couple wanted to adopt either Pinkster or Danger. To settle this, Pinkster proposed that they flip a coin to decide who would be adopted. Danger Duck won the coin toss when the coin landed on heads. However, Danger Duck unfairly rigged the coin toss in his favor by using a two-headed coin. Danger was taken into an adopted family but felt guilty for what he did to Pinkster. Danger was unaware of this, but Pinkster knew Danger would use the two-headed coin to rig the game and went along with it just to get adopted by Stoney and Bugsy, two mobsters, since Pinkster aspired to be one.
Reuniting With Danger Duck[]
In 2773, when Stoney and Bugsy began committing crimes all over Acmetropolis, Pinkster Pig decided to stall the Loonatics and the police department by posing as a bumbling police officer. When the Loonatics intercepted a robbery being orchestrated by Stoney and Bugsy, Pinkster appeared as a bumbling police officer trying to stop the robbery and deliberately crashed into the Loonatics while making seem that it was an accident. Reunited with Danger Duck, who felt guilty when Pinkster lied to him that he was never adopted, Ace Bunny reluctantly agrees to let Pinkster help them try to stop Stoney and Bugsy. Pinkster reveals to Lexi that he has a can with an eye on it that he talks to for courage and motivation, however unknown to the Loonatics, the can was actually a transmitter for Stoney and Bugsy to track their every move.
Whenever the Loonatics tried to deal with Stoney and Bugsy, Pinkster kept sabotaging the Loonatics by making it appear as if it was by accident. When Pinkster asked if he could guard the Curium-247 to prove his worth, Ace got suspicious as to how a police officer like Pinkster knew about the Curium-247 since it was top-secret and above the clearance of local law enforcement. Recalling how Pinkster claimed he was never adopted, claimed to be a test subject for various science experiments, and then finally became a police officer, Ace decided to investigate Pinkster's background in secret. Ace spoke to the scientists that Pinkster claimed to have worked with and the scientists deny ever having Pinkster as an employee. When Ace went to speak to the Acmetropolis Police Department, they denied having Pinkster as a member of their department. Ace then went to the orphanage and learned that Pinkster lied about not being adopted since he was adopted by Stoney and Bugsy. Ace then realized that the can that Pinkster was using to boost his self-confidence was actually a transmitter for Stoney and Bugsy to track him with. Thinking fast, Ace had the Curium-247 transferred someplace else and replaced it with a fake.
When Stoney and Bugsy managed to be cornered by the Loonatics when trying to rob the Curium-247, Pinkster finally showed competency by catching the laser gun when it almost fell to the ground. Danger Duck expected Pinkster to arrest Stoney and Bugsy, but Pinkster then revealed his true colors by holding the Loonatics at laser gunpoint. Pinkster introduced himself as the mob leader known as "Pink the Pug". Pinkster used the Curium-247 on Ace out of sadistic pleasure only for the Curium-247 to be a fake. Pinkster, Stoney, and Bugsy were then defeated when Tech E. Coyote used a giant claw to apprehend them before they could escape. Pinkster was defeated and after he showed his true self to Danger Duck, such as knowing he would use the trick coin, and Ace investigating Pinkster's false background, Danger still had hope that Pinkster could be reformed. However, Pinkster refused to believe that and knocked Danger to the ground. While speaking in the same way as his ancestor Porky Pig, Pinkster told the rest of the Loonatics: "This ain't over, folks!"
Personality[]
At first glance, Pinkster appeared to be very similar to his great grandfather Porky where Pinkster was intelligent, stuttering, and a naive individual who loved his friends but would get easily fooled by them. Similar to Porky, Pinkster appeared to be a pushover for Danger Duck. However, all of this was false as Pinkster is nothing like his grandfather Porky other than the exact opposite where Pinkster is ruthless, murderous, cunning, calculating, sadistic, and merciless.
