The Plankton Family are supporting antagonists in Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants franchise.
They are the family members of Plankton who often help him in his evil schemes, but unlike Plankton, not every one of his relatives is evil. However, they're perfectly fine with doing Plankton's evil bidding as long as he provides them with various rewards.
They also serve as the archenemies to the Narwhals who have been feuding over the ownership of the bumblejelly fields for generations.
These Plankton first appeared in the episode Plankton's Army. Plankton invites them all to come to the Chum Bucket, thinking they will all be evil geniuses like himself. However, when they arrive, he finds out they are all rednecks, and comments that he's "been away from home longer than (he) thought."
He calls them to a meeting and after going through the embarrassing moment where his first name is ridiculed, he gets them to agree to his plan in exchange for root beer. Plankton tells his family of his plan, as they ask what they get for helping. After a few reveal what they want, Clem asks for root beer and they all get excited as Plankton promises them as much root beer that they can drink, something that excites them.
At the Krusty Krab, Plankton uses a megaphone demanding the formula before threatening to destroy the restaurant. Mr. Krabs and Squidward confront him and Mr. Krabs asks how he will act on his threat. Plankton shows him his family, something Mr. Krabs mistakes for grass until he realizes his enemy has an army. This causes him and Squidward to run as the Plankton attack the Krusty Krab, tying up Mr. Krabs and Squidward in a toilet. The Planktons open the safe containing the Krabby Patty secret recipe. Before Plankton reads the recipe, Mr. Krabs pleads him not to read it, saying "There some things this world weren't meant to be seen by mortal eyes!" Plankton tells him he doesn't care and reads it anyway. The ingredients turn out to be: A pinch of salt, 3 tsp. of chopped onions, A cup of love, and 4 lb of freshly ground Plankton.
At a loss of words, Plankton looks at Mr. Krabs who says he warned him as Plankton is horrified by this, and runs away screaming from the Krusty Krab and back to the Chum Bucket. The other Planktons read it and run away (except for Clem, who can't read, but Mr. Krabs orders him to get out).
After many years of absences, the Plankton Family have finally returned in the Season 13 episode Something Narwhal This Way Comes and scared away the Narwhal Hillfolk out of the Bikini Bottom after they took over it.
In the Season 14 episode In the Mood to Feud, the Planktons serve as the main antagonists without Plankton himself and start the war against the Narwhals, including SpongeBob, Patrick, and Sandy.
In-Video Games[]
The Plankton Family appeared in two online games Delivery Dilemma and Sea Stampede.
The Plankton Family appeared as enemies in Creature from the Krusty Krab. Plankton becomes a giant and terrorizes the Bikini Bottom. For usurpation, the other Planktons have taken over the city.
The Plankton Family assisted cousin Plankton to build enormous robots of themselves and find a key to open the ultra secure safe that holds the Krabby Patty secret formula in Plankton's Robotic Revenge. Only two members are bosses in the game: Rainchild and Clem.
One of Plankton's many cousins is mentioned in the episode "The Algae's Always Greener" when Plankton says he has not reviewed anything except for Foreign exercise videos that one of his cousins sent him.
At first, when it shows them standing around the Krusty Krab there would be trillions of them, but later when they start storming in (and in later scenes) there is a lot less.
