Pinky is very scatter-brained, which is sometimes the factor of his and Brain’s ultimate failure in taking over the world (but not always) due to his misunderstanding of Brain’s plan, incompetence or bumbling. He cares a great deal about the Brain and always tries to help and support him the best he can and admires him almost regardless of the abuse he regularly receives. Scratchansniff in the series, Raphael from the 1984 TMNT series and Donatello from the 2012 reboot, among hundreds of others in English while in Japanese, he is voiced by Hideyuki Umezu.Īlthough Pinky can be considered an antagonist of Animaniacs, he is as far from being a villain as possible and is the polar opposite of the Brain: he is good-hearted, pure, absent-minded, silly, immature, emotional, sensitive and sweet.

He is voiced by Rob Paulsen, who also voiced a lot of other heroic characters, such as Yakko Warner and Dr. The Brain is annoyed by Pinky's dimness and often abuses him, but occasionally he has also shown that he actually genuinely cares for him. Unfortunately for Brain, Pinky's idiocy often interferes with the success of his plans (though he has also had his occasional moments of brilliance). Pinky is the Brain's associate/friend and tries to aid him in his plans to take over the world.

He has several verbal tics, such as 'narf', 'zort', 'poit' and 'troz' (the latter of which he started saying after noticing it was zort in the mirror). He is significantly dimmer than his genius cagemate and speaks with an exaggerated Cockney accent. He has a straight tail, blue eyes, and a severe overbite. Just like Brain, Pinky is a genetically modified mouse. Pinky is a recurring character in Animaniacs, one of the titular protagonists of Pinky and the Brain and of Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain, and a cameo character in Freakazoid!.
