| 14 | ''"I want to have friends, and hang out like normal teenagers do! But who would want to hang out with a rusty hunk of metal like me?"'' |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The main protagonist and the "teenage robot" ([[RunningGag built five years ago]]) to which the title refers, a state-of-the-art sentient gynoid automaton created by Dr. Noreen Wakeman five years prior to the series, though she was designed as a teenage girl. Though XJ-9 was designed to be Earth's protector, armed to the teeth with a wide range of weapons, devices, and transformations, [[IJustWantToBeNormal she wants to live the life of a normal teenager]] and often makes this desire quite apparent to her friends and creator. |
| 17 | ---- |
| 18 | * ActionGirl: A ridiculously powerful crime-fighting robot. |
| 19 | * AgeInappropriateDress: Taking into account her body parts that count as "clothing", she appears to have a crop top, a miniskirt, and thigh-high boots. Not an outfit that would normally be seen as formal. |
| 20 | * TheAgeless: Since Jenny is a robot, she'll look like a teenager forever, though she does seem capable of maturing mentally. She even has a dream of hanging out with her classmates when they're in the retirement home and she looks no different than the present. |
| 21 | * AintTooProudToBeg: Typically to her mother when she doesn't get her way. |
| 22 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: ZigZagged. It seems as though no matter what she does on a daily basis, she will always somehow end back up as the school freak...but that doesn't stop her from at least being respected as a hero by her peers, although this is more of a case of DependingOnTheWriter. |
| 23 | * AnimalMotifs: Spiders pop up several times during the show. First there's her spider-legs function, then there's the time she outright transformed into a spider to scare the Crust Cousins, and lastly, there's Cluster Prime's anti-Jenny propaganda video, comparing her to a spider. The last example makes sense when you remember that Cluster Prime's military/elites is made up of MechanicalInsects, insects being the main prey of spiders. |
| 24 | * {{Animesque}}: Her character design, just look at her! |
| 25 | * ArtificialFamilyMember: Even though Nora Wakeman created Jenny to protect the Earth, she was still treated like a daughter. They even provide the page image. |
| 26 | * AstroClone: Jenny is a superpowered RobotGirl who just wants to [[IJustWantToBeNormal be a normal human teen]]. Her mother has a design similar to Dr. Tenma, but she's a benevolent parent (besides her being unsupportive of Jenny's "human name" and her desire to be normal). Jenny has a blue-and-white scheme with pointy GirlishPigtails, similar to Astro's pointy RobotHair. |
| 27 | * BadassAdorable: A OneManArmy that is also a cute robot girl. |
| 28 | * BalloonBelly: She has inflated more than once, [[RuleOfFunny despite being made of metal]]. |
| 29 | * BareMidriffsAreFeminine: Being a [[{{Fembot}} girly robot]], Jenny's design is meant to give this impression, with blue plates at her chest and waist mimicking a crop top and a miniskirt. A screw in the center mimics a belly button. |
| 30 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Her temper is incredibly human, all things considered. Combine that with a HyperspaceArsenal, and you get literally-explosive anger. Thankfully, she seldom use her powers against anyone for revenge. |
| 31 | * BigLittleSister: She's the ninth and most recent of the XJ prototypes, but since she was designed with a body roughly mimicking a teenage girl, she towers over some of her sisters. |
| 32 | * BigSisterInstinct: Jenny is rather protective of Tuck, and generally treats him like he was her little brother. His screaming even helped her when FightingFromTheInside. |
| 33 | * {{Bifauxnen}}: A few outfits of hers make Jenny look bulky, such as the quarterback kit in "Grid Iron Glory", a select few in "Victim of Fashion" and her persona as Ruby Rocket in "Girl of Steal". |
| 34 | * BlueIsHeroic: Her body is white with dark cyan paint on the parts that resemble hair and clothing. |
| 35 | * BlushStickers: When she blushes, she displays blue-colored ones. |
| 36 | * BornAsAnAdult: This issue is addressed in the episode "I Was a Preschool Drop-out", when XJ-9 is forced to attend preschool after the authorities find out she has only been active for five years. The later episode "Humiliation 101" had Nora reveal to Jenny's classmates that, while she came online with an adolescent body, she still had an infantile mind and was even strapped to a baby's highchair. |
| 37 | * BrattyTeenageDaughter: She has her moments of rebelliousness, selfishness, and acting like a delinquent to her mother, but being that she was built in the image of and programmed with the personality of one, it's a given. |
| 38 | * ButtMonkey: She suffers misfortunes quite a bit, the worst offenders including "Ear No Evil" (where she is ceaselessly mocked for her goofy-looking ears) and "Killgore" (where the title antagonist keeps pestering her and she's unable to fight back without being seen as cruel by the people who adore Killgore). |
| 39 | * CatchPhrase: '''Crikey!''' |
| 40 | * CharacterTitle: The "Teenage Robot" part refers to her. |
| 41 | * ClothingAppendage: The blue parts of her body besides the RobotHair resemble a tube top, miniskirt, and boots. |
| 42 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Her hair and outfit colors match. |
| 43 | * CuteBruiser: Built like a bubbly, adorable teenage girl that is a super robot that regularly pummels monsters into the ground. |
| 44 | * CuteMachines: Just look at her; she's a total sweetie! |
| 45 | * DeadpanSnarker: Started developing into sardonic banter by season two. |
| 46 | * {{Demonization}}: {{Subverted|Trope}} InUniverse; Queen Vexus of Cluster Prime demonizes [=XJ-9=], presenting her like an AlwaysChaoticEvil, [[BeautyEqualsGoodness horrible monster]] robot that wants to destroy her own kind in various propaganda videos showed to the robots. When [=XJ9=] accidentally goes to Cluster Prime, all the robots see her for the cute, normal, [[TheHero heroic robot who wants to help and protect others]]. [[spoiler: Even when someone recognizes her and the Robot police try to catch her, she is helped by her new friends. This leads to Queen Vexus’ downfall]]. There is also the fact that the propaganda doesn't bother showing her true appearance, allowing Jenny to remain HiddenInPlainSight. |
| 47 | * DestructiveSaviour: She often causes buildings to get destroyed when she fights monsters, much to the dismay of the citizens of Tremorton. |
| 48 | * DependingOnTheWriter: |
| 49 | ** Jenny's unpopularity at school. She's either a easily-ridiculed butt-monkey that's seen as an outcast by everyone or is seen as just another student that everyone else are cool with. |
| 50 | ** Water usually makes her rust, but in "The Great Unwashed", water seems to not ever rust her in the slightest. |
| 51 | * DitzyGenius: A highly advanced and intelligent combat android, but she's pretty clueless and is usually a complete screw-up when it comes to mingling with non-robotic teens. |
| 52 | * DoAnythingRobot: Her arsenal is downright {{Hammerspace}}y. |
| 53 | * DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: Jenny has some initial problems fitting in due to this, but eventually gets used to her surroundings. At home, she seems to have either figured out how to lounge around without breaking stuff, or Dr. Wakeman has simply reinforced a lot of the house. |
| 54 | * DudeMagnet: Kenny and Lil’ Acorn both [[LoveatFirstSight fall in love with her at first sight]], and despite being a robot, she attracts several human boys throughout the show. Sheldon is madly in love with her, and Brad and Tuck are both hinted to have a crush on her a couple times. Her second outing with the exo-skin also quickly attracts many interested looks from many male observers. |
| 55 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: In the original ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons'' pilot short, she was visibly larger, her hands were the same coloring as her hair and "clothes", she had lips, and her skirt had rivets on the bottom. |
| 56 | * EndearinglyDorky: All she wants in life is to blend in with her human classmates, and her attempts at such are rather adorable. |
| 57 | * ExpressiveHair: Not a big example, but her hair does droop when she's sad and points straight up when she’s happy, excited or angry. |
| 58 | * ExtendedDisarming: Does two variants. When up against Armagedroid, she pulls out another weapon for every one he rips off her in a protracted fight. When undergoing a [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything liposuction allegory]] in "Victim of Fashion", Sheldon pulls out a massive pile of weapons and gadgets, [[KitchenSinkIncluded including a working sink]]. |
| 59 | * FemBot: She's a female robot built with a feminine shape. Taken [[ExaggeratedTrope up to 11]] in the second "Raggedy Android" episode, where the exoskin she wears turns Jenny into a curvaceous redhead that [[DudeMagnet every guy in Tremorton wants]]. |
| 60 | * GenkiGirl: She's quite excitable and with a positive attitude. |
| 61 | * GirlNextDoor: She’s the next door neighbor to Brad and Tuck. Minus the romance, of course. |
| 62 | * GirlishPigtails: She has [[RobotHair metal protrusions on her head shaped like pigtails]]. She stores a rocket in each which she uses to fly, and they've been shown with other strange functions like antenna, blades, and ears. |
| 63 | * GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: She has a love for clothing, pretty boys and shopping, and has an overall feminine demeanor, but she's also a proud ActionGirl loaded with weapons [[OneOfTheBoys whose friends are mostly male]]. |
| 64 | * GoodIsNotSoft: Make no mistake, Jenny is a good person deep down, but when she's truly annoyed by someone or something, she's not one to hold back any speeches or her strength and likes to apply equal consequences to the situation. |
| 65 | * HairTriggerTemper: Her temper is very human-like. Add in her various weapons and gadgets, and making her mad is something you don't want to do. |
| 66 | * HartmanHips: While not her normal robot form, this trope applies with her new Exo-Skin form in "The Return of Raggedy Android", as the skin's hips are very wide. |
| 67 | * HeadTurningBeauty: Despite being a robot, she’s seen as this in "The Great Unwashed" when she gets a makeover, and in "Victim of Fashion" when she puts on a fresh coat of wax, as well as every time she puts on a new outfit. |
| 68 | * TheHeroine: The series revolves around Jenny who was created by her mother, Dr. Nora to protect Earth. |
| 69 | * HeroWithBadPublicity: Despite saving the world multiple times, the [[UngratefulTownsfolk citizens of Tremorton]] (primarily at school) [[DependingOnTheWriter occasionally]] treat her like garbage. A particularly ''nasty'' example of this occurs in the Christmas special where she spends a year [[BrainwashedAndCrazy under mind control that causes her to destroy holidays]] and when she manages to escape, even Brad, Tuck and her own mother believe she did those things by choice. Her classmates also hate her in "Killgore" for trying to hurt Killgore, despite Killgore being a CardCarryingVillain. She manages to get some well-earned respect she yearned for after "Escape from Cluster Prime" and is eventually promoted by General of Skyway Patrol a "city treasure" in "A Spoonful of Mayhem". |
| 70 | * HeldBackInSchool: Jenny is sent to kindergarten on one occasion because she is technically only 5 years old. |
| 71 | * HugeSchoolgirl: She's stated to be 6' 6" and is the tallest girl in her school. |
| 72 | * IJustWantToBeNormal: Combined with IJustWantToHaveFriends: Being a superpowered robot wouldn't be so hard for her if there were more bots as advanced as her. |
| 73 | * ImmunityAttrition: She may be tough but she has her limits. Many times she gets beaten up to the point where she can hardly fight, most notably against Misty, Armagedroid, and Gigawatt. |
| 74 | * ImpossiblyCompactFolding: Despite being relatively human-sized, her transformative capabilities as a TelescopingRobot allow her to whip out a variety of {{Retractable Weapon}}s and gadgets for any and all occasions (melee combat weapons, lasers and {{Death Ray}}s, explosives, many methods of flight, survivalist tools, cosmetic changes and pointless little doo-dads) in a way that would be impossible outside of a cartoon. |
| 75 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: She comes off as this at times, such as when she pronounced the "P" in Pteresa’s name, not knowing that the "P" is silent. |
| 76 | * InSeriesNickname: Her friends, mostly just Brad, call her “Jen”. She's only referred to by "Jennifer" at times by Nora, Vexus, and some of her teachers. |
| 77 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She often shifts between this and NiceGirl, depending on whether the episode is making liberal use of SurroundedByIdiots. |
| 78 | * JetPack: Not so much as one as a flying robot, as she has rockets as part of her body. She can also transform herself into one. |
| 79 | * KidHero: Has the mentality and appearance of a teenage girl, but she’s technically only five years old. |
| 80 | * LeeroyJenkins: She's prone to going into battle without a plan and ends up bringing the following chaos with her. |
| 81 | * LightIsGood: A white robot with navy blue ''clothes'' and ''hair'' and is [[TheHero The Heroine]] of the show. |
| 82 | * LightningBruiser: She possesses super strength and speed, being able to lift a 100,000 ton pyramid 'while' flying at near-faster than light travel. |
| 83 | * LovesMyAlterEgo: Jenny just considers Sheldon her friend, but falls in love with Silver Shell almost immediately ([[SpringtimeForHitler despite Sheldon trying to make him as repulsive as possible]] so she'd dislike robot guys). Eventually, he dates her as the Silver Shell, but she ends up hating him because he keeps sneaking off (to hide that their dance was being crashed by the space bikers) and Sheldon decides he'll have better luck with Jenny as himself. |
| 84 | * MagicalGirlfriend: The components of the fantasy are all there; Sheldon, the LoserProtagonist, falls in love with the {{Superhero}}ine {{Fembot}} who saves him from bullies, and becomes her DoggedNiceGuy. Too bad she's not interested. |
| 85 | * MagicSkirt: Justified, as that "skirt" is made out of metal and is actually her pelvis. In one official promotional material, Brad and Tuck are seen accidentally taking her underwear out of her drawer, implying that she indeed wears metallic panties, though this was later retconned in the episode "Crash Pad Crash". |
| 86 | * MeaningfulRename: Calling herself "Jenny" reflects her desire to be seen as a teenager rather than a machine. Nora usually calls her XJ-9, except during heartfelt moments. |
| 87 | * MoralityPet: Seems to be one towards Misty, as the latter wanted money in return for her services but was willing to help Jenny without charging her. |
| 88 | * MotorMouth: She talks noticeably faster than other characters. Then there's the time she tried to ask Silver Shell to a school dance. |
| 89 | * MsImagination: Becomes this in "Daydream Believer" after her mother installs a dream chip into her system. |
| 90 | * NiceGirl: She's a cheerful, kind, and sweet girl who just wants to fit in. |
| 91 | * TheNoseless: She has no visible nose, given that she is a robot, unless you considered her pointy cheekbones as a nose, |
| 92 | * {{Omniglot}}: She has software that apparently allows her to speak any language, though we just see her speaking English [[TheCastShowOff and Japanese]]. |
| 93 | * OneWomanArmy: She’s capable of taking down an entire alien invasion on her own and any of the threats the Earth faces. |
| 94 | * PlatonicLifePartners: With Brad. In fact, Jenny is just about the only girl who Brad doesn't show any kind of interest in or who shows any interest in him. |
| 95 | * RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Jenny thinks, emotes, cries, sleeps, and eventually dreams like a human. About the only humanlike thing she can't do is [[EatingMachine eat/drink]] anything besides oil. |
| 96 | * RobotHair: She sports a pair of metal pigtails. They house two of her jet thrusters outside of her wings and bootjets. |
| 97 | * ShapeshifterBaggage: Jenny is heavy, but nowhere near as heavy as she should be if she bore the true weight of all her mechanisms. It becomes a plot point in "Victim of Fashion" that, while capable of emulating highly elaborate fashions with her devices, she cannot make herself any smaller than she already is. |
| 98 | * SheCleansUpNicely: Who knew that a teenage robot got a spa from ''greasy gearheads'' in order to visit Don Prima's party and in one episode, dresses herself in a variety of fashions to outdo ''the Crusts''? |
| 99 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: By the end of "Weapons of Mass Distraction", she’s sick of smooth guys who turn out to be jerks, and wants someone sweet and sincere. Sheldon walks by, and she greets him, still wondering where she can find someone like that. Sometimes, though, Sheldon is set back by more dubious actions he'll take for her affection. |
| 100 | * SlidingScaleOfRobotIntelligence: Average Joe: Emotionally, she's basically like a human teenager--which is to say she can be very mature or [[BrattyTeenageDaughter very childish]] depending on the situation. Intellectually, it seems to [[DependingOnTheWriter vary by the episode]] whether she's a lot smarter than most humans, or basically just like a human with a built-in calculator. |
| 101 | * {{Slapstick}}: She tends to suffer more injuries than the rest of the cast, given she's a robot and not a human. Being that she only had pain receptors installed for one episode, it's more an inconvenience for her being that she's still a robot and thus can be repaired by her mother. |
| 102 | * SmugSuper: Veers into overconfidence at times due to being [[TheAce an overpowered robotics unit]], causing her to frequently [[TemptingFate tempt fate]]. |
| 103 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only one in her main group of friends to be female. Her only other female friends either became evil like Misty or only appeared once in the show such as Vega. |
| 104 | * StatuesqueStunner: She's 6 1/2 feet tall (though this seems to include her hair) and really cute to boot. |
| 105 | * StalkerWithoutACrush: When she is suspicious of Melody hanging around Brad, she follows them around town, because she’s looking out for Brad. Given that she and Brad are PlatonicLifePartners, she (probably) isn’t doing it out of jealousy of losing him to Melody. |
| 106 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: [[ClothingAppendage The parts of her body that suggest clothing]] are oddly skimpy, consisting of a very small crop top with a miniskirt. [[note]]Which is even worse when you consider the fact that she’s technically only five years old.[[/note]] |
| 107 | * SuperStrength: "The strength of a million-and-seventy men," if the theme song is to be taken literally. [[note]]If it is to be taken literally, that means Jenny should be able to bench press between 67,504 tons if the men used as reference are of average strength, and 551,038 tons if they're around the current human limit.[[/note]] Additionally, she mentions she weighs 600 pounds. |
| 108 | * TelescopingRobot: She provides the trope picture. |
| 109 | * TokenRobot: The only robot in her group of friends and attending her school, unless you count Kenny, who was only in school in his debut appearance. |
| 110 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Jenny plays the girly girl to Misty's tomboy, being a girly {{fembot}} to Misty's rough {{Bifauxnen}}. |
| 111 | * TrueBlueFemininity: She’s quite feminine, and her hair and outfit is blue. |
| 112 | * WeaksauceWeakness: Water tends to fry her circuits or rust her metal shell. |
| 113 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: Both violently and non-violently, Jenny can pull some ridiculous methods if it's to get rid of whatever MonsterOfTheWeek is attacking Tremorton (or alternatively whatever teenage plight is occurring for her), but she has good intentions behind all of it. Unfortunately, it also makes her destructive and leads to her having a bad reputation ''because'' of her extremism. |
| 114 | * WhatTheHellHero: In "Escape From Cluster Prime" her irresponsible handling of the Cluster Bomb causes an Earthquake which angers the whole town. In "Weapons of Mass Distraction" she refuses to fight crime because she's on a date, which backfires when her date calls her selfish for doing so and breaks up. In "Mist Opportunities" Sheldon calls her out for slacking off and letting Misty be the town's savior, despite Misty's shady character, and in "No Harmony with Melody" Brad calls her out for [[spoiler: trying to kill Melody, who she mistakenly thinks is a villain]]. |
| 115 | * YourSizeMayVary: Despite being [=6'6''=], Jenny is either visible taller than everyone or is barely taller than the [=5'6''=] Sheldon. |
| 116 | * YoungerThanSheLooks: Technically has been alive for about 5 years, but has all the mentality of a teenage girl... usually. Jenny being physically five years old was even played as a joke, where a truant officer threw her into Kindergarten for the majority of the episode "I was a Preschool Dropout". |

| 119 | [[folder:Brad]] |
| 120 | !!Bradley "Brad" Carbunkle |
| 121 | [[quoteright:184:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brad_by_mlaatrscribbles_d3142vt.png]] |
| 122 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Melissa Denton (''Oh Yeah! Cartoons'' pilot), Chad Doreck (main series), Jhonny Torres (Latin American Spanish) |
| 123 | |
| 124 | Jenny's best friend and next-door neighbor. |
| 125 | ---- |
| 126 | * ActionSurvivor: He's a completely normal human, but he helps Jenny take on intergalactic threats regularly, and even sometimes joins her on the front lines. |
| 127 | * AnimeHair: He has three large spikes in his hair. He uses a lot of hair gel to get it that way. |
| 128 | * BadassNormal: No super powers to speak of, but still occasionally manages to be useful in battle. |
| 129 | * BumblingSidekick: Most of the time when he tries to get in on the action and help his best friend fight crime, he usually screws up and XJ-9 has save ''him'' and the day. But he can be quite capable at times. |
| 130 | * CampStraight: Brad is rather metrosexual, but shows exclusive (and [[CasanovaWannabe frequent]]) interest in women. |
| 131 | * CasanovaWannabe: Brad frequently insists he's irresistible to the ladies, which always causes any girl present ([[PlatonicLifePartners but his friend Jenny]]) to turn their nose up at him. |
| 132 | * ChickMagnet: While Brad's game with ''human'' girls is pretty dire, he seems to have no problem attracting the attention of aliens and robots. [[UnwantedHarem Pretty much none]] [[AbhorrentAdmirer of it is wanted]]. |
| 133 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: His over-enthusiasm for trying to be a hero can be more trouble than help, but when he gets serious he can be a pretty reliable ally. |
| 134 | * {{Deuteragonist}}: As largely in focus as Jenny herself. |
| 135 | * DistressedDude: His gung-ho attitude frequently results in him needing to be rescued. |
| 136 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: The original ''Oh Yeah!'' short depicted him with less stylized hair, red hi-top sneakers instead of black shoes and wearing brown pants with patches on the knees, a red shirt and a white and olive varsity jacket instead of gray pants, a white shirt with a black sweater vest. |
| 137 | * TheFace: While he's nowhere near as popular as he thinks he is, Brad is quite charismatic, and is able to function in social situations where [[NoSocialSkills Jenny]] can't. |
| 138 | * FearlessFool: Tends to leap headfirst into action despite almost always being way out of his depth. |
| 139 | * FieryRedhead: He has dark red hair and, while he doesn't have a bad temper, is quick to leap before he looks. |
| 140 | * {{Foil}}: To Jenny. While Jenny is super-powerful, but extremely self-conscious and [[IJustWantToBeNormal would rather be a normal teenager]], Brad is an ordinary guy who is extremely self-assured and [[IJustWantToBeSpecial desperately wants to be anything but a normal teenager]]. |
| 141 | * GlorySeeker: Brad's primary goal in life is to be popular. He doesn't care what form this popularity takes, and pursues becoming a sporty jock, a famous musician and a world-saving superhero with equal amounts of enthusiasm. |
| 142 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: In contrast to Jenny's desire to be a normal teen, Brad wishes that he could be a super hero, which causes him to tag along to help her fight evil frequently. |
| 143 | * InterspeciesRomance: Brad seems quite prone to this, considering his short relationship with Melody, his brief marriage to Tammy, and his implied relationship with Misty. |
| 144 | * TheLoad: Particularly in earlier episodes, he tends to only get in the way or get captured when he tries to help Jenny out. Pretty much {{averted|Trope}} later on, as he pulls his weight much more consistently. |
| 145 | * TheMentor: To Jenny, even though he's a teen like her, he often helps her overcome her problems and work things out. |
| 146 | * MuggleBestFriend: He's an ordinary human who is best friends with a super-fighting robot. |
| 147 | * NiceGuy: Brad is typically a very friendly, upbeat person. |
| 148 | * TheNotLoveInterest: He's Jenny's best friend and usual {{foil}}, but their relationship is entirely platonic. |
| 149 | * OnlySaneMan: He is the most level-headed person in most situations and is the only one Jenny can turn to for help. |
| 150 | * PlatonicLifePartners: With Jenny, usually. Most of the time, they act like they’re just friends, although there are a few rare moments where Brad’s implied to have a crush on her. |
| 151 | * RedheadsAreUncool: Isn't too popular at his school, although not to the same extent as Sheldon. |
| 152 | * RidiculouslyAverageGuy: Though he wishes to be more than that. |
| 153 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Brad thinks of himself as a cool, charismatic social butterfly as well as an accomplished adventurer. In reality, he's a clumsy, unpopular teen who thinks too highly of himself. |
| 154 | * ShipTease: There are a couple moments where he’s hinted to have a crush on Jenny. In "No Harmony With Melody" he fantasizes about singing on a stage for an audience of adoring fangirls, including Jenny, and in "Ball And Chain", he’s shown to have a drawing of Jenny in his school locker. |
| 155 | * TookALevelInBadass: After training in the Skyway Patrol, he becomes more consistently reliable during action sequences. |
| 156 | * UnfazedEveryman: Generally handles supernatural encounters with a combination of neutrality and enthusiasm. |
| 157 | * WeirdnessMagnet: The supernatural and the extraterrestrial seem to be naturally drawn towards him. |
| 158 | * WiseBeyondTheirYears: He is a kind, well-meaning teenager with lots of insight on the world and social life, and educates Jenny when she needs it. |
| 159 | [[/folder]] |
| 160 | |
| 161 | [[folder:Tuck]] |
| 162 | !!Tucker Carbunkle |
| 163 | [[quoteright:216:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tuck_profile_image.png]] |
| 164 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AudreyWasilewski, Maythe Guedes (Latin American Spanish) |
| 165 | |
| 166 | Brad's little brother. |
| 167 | ---- |
| 168 | * AbsurdPhobia: In "Raggedy Android", he tries to face his fears on the Ferris Wheel. He's not afraid of heights or anything: just giant wheels. |
| 169 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Tuck can sometimes be annoying, mostly because he's such a [[LargeHam scream]] [[LovableCoward king]], though it doesn't seem to hurt his popularity in-universe. Brad even claims, when talking about Kilgore and Tuck, that "annoying + small = popular". |
| 170 | * BadassAdorable: He always going on adventures with his brother and knows almost as much as Dr. Wakeman about robots. |
| 171 | * BrattyHalfPint: He's a real nuisance to Jenny, Sheldon, and Brad. |
| 172 | * CheerfulChild: Tuck is very enthusiastic and smiles [[PerpetualSmiler almost constantly]]. |
| 173 | * DeadpanSnarker: Most likely the one to make a sarcastic comment out of the whole main cast. |
| 174 | * DependingOnTheWriter: He is either a well-meaning troublemaker or a completely unsympathetic brat. |
| 175 | * DistressedDude: Even more than his brother, frequently being afraid of many things that he encounters. |
| 176 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: The original pilot depicts him wearing a baseball cap and a white T-shirt with red accents rather than going bare-headed and wearing a red shirt with a black stripe and collar. |
| 177 | * HeroWorshipper: To the Silver Shell, as shown in the episode "A Pain in My Sidekick", and to Jenny, though the latter doesn't come up that often. |
| 178 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: Given he is a younger kid, he doesn't understand self-control or basic boundaries of people, and having good manners. |
| 179 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: DependingOnTheWriter, he's either a self-centered brat or a well-meaning kid [[InnocentlyInsensitive who has trouble understanding boundaries]]. Sometimes at the end of the episode, he does something unselfish, other times he doesn't learn anything. |
| 180 | * KidAppealCharacter: Despite being a kids' show, the main cast is almost entirely teenagers, so Tuck fills in the much-needed role of a kid character. |
| 181 | * KarmaHoudini: In several episodes, his selfishness causes destruction and pain for the main heroes, but he gets off relatively free, though it was zigzagged in "Tuckered Out" As while he did get a passing grade he also got publicly humiliated for the way he treated everyone else. |
| 182 | * LackOfEmpathy: One of his major flaws, DependingOnTheWriter. He regularly takes advantage of and humiliates his friends like in "Tuckered Out" and "The Boy Who Cried Robot" and shows little regard for their safety like in in "Histrionics". In "Ball and Chain", he doesn't care about his brother being forced into a marriage with a fish monster, only seeing it as an opportunity to have adventures in space. |
| 183 | * LargeHam: He's got quite a pair of lungs for a little guy and puts them to use. |
| 184 | * LaserGuidedKarma: When his actions actually bite him in the ass, most notably in ''The Boy Who Cried Robot''. |
| 185 | * LovableCoward: He's the most likely to start running and screaming in any situation. |
| 186 | * OnlySaneMan: Slides in and out of this if the situation calls. Conversely, [[DependingOnTheWriter in a few episodes]], he's a pushy jerk. |
| 187 | * PrecociousCrush: He shows one towards Jenny a couple times. In "Future Shock", he asks Jenny on a date, and in "The Price of Love", he buys a picture of Jenny from Sheldon when Sheldon has a yard sale. |
| 188 | * SecretKeeper: As of "A Pain in My Sidekick", he's the only one who knows Sheldon is the Silver Shell. |
| 189 | * TakingAdvantageOfGenerosity: A few episodes have been based on Tuck abusing Jenny's protective nature or his friends' general wishes to help him because he's younger. [[LaserGuidedKarma This generally doesn't end well for him.]] |
| 190 | * WholesomeCrossdresser: He wears a dress and a necklace in "Labor Day". |

| 198 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/CandiMilo, Edylu Martínez (Latin American Spanish) |
| 199 | |
| 200 | An elderly spinster robotics scientist and the one who built the XJ robots, who is often simply refered to as "Mother" or "Mom" by Jenny and her sisters. |
| 201 | ---- |
| 202 | * AbusiveParents: To the other models of the XJ line, who she [[ParentalNeglect keeps deactivated in the basement for being imperfect]]. They are notably gleeful to get the chance to attack her when reactivated and used by the VillainOfTheWeek. |
| 203 | * ActionMom: When in danger, she shows no reluctance in fighting. |
| 204 | * AmazinglyEmbarrassingParent: Anytime Nora talks to a peer of Jenny besides Brad and Tuck, expect her to share some embarrassing detail about Jenny's design or maintenance. |
| 205 | * BadassAdorable: Is fairly short and cute, if a bit reserved, but she is a bona fide ActionMom and Skyway Patrol veteran. |
| 206 | * BigGood: She is Jenny's creator and caretaker, so she's usually the one everyone relies on when [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Jenny's actions lead to disaster]]. |
| 207 | * CoolOldLady: A elderly woman who is able to create many advanced robots. She even fought Vexus with her bare hands! |
| 208 | * DefrostingIceQueen: Was once very, ''very'' strict about Jenny's lifestyle and initially desired to keep her out of the public eye when not fighting evil. She eventually comes around however to embrace Jenny's very human-like nature and now lets her live as the typical teenage girl she designed her to be, allowing Jenny to interact freely with humans. |
| 209 | * DudeMagnet: Implied to be one at the end of “Mama Drama”. |
| 210 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: She had a different hairstyle, wore completely different glasses, a less longer nose, and her clothes were completely white a-la [[WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory Dexter]] in the pilot short on ''WesternAnimation/OhYeahCartoons''. |
| 211 | * EinsteinHair: Her hair is white, spiky and messy. |
| 212 | * GadgeteerGenius: She's built [[DoAnythingRobot incredibly powerful]] RidiculouslyHumanRobots as well as other machines. |
| 213 | * GenkiGirl: She comes off as a lively and excitable woman. [[ItRunsInTheFamily No surprise where Jenny gets it from.]] |
| 214 | * GagNose: She has a long, pointy, erect nose. While it isn't pointed out often, Sheldon calls her a "birdnose" and later she uses it to poke Vexus' eye in "[[TheMovie Escape From Cluster Prime]]". |
| 215 | * InsistentTerminology: As Jenny's creator, she often calls her by her designation "XJ-9". |
| 216 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She can be strict, sometimes restrictive, and often meddles with Jenny's life but deep down loves her and wants what is best for her. |
| 217 | * MadScientist: One of the saner ones, but some of her wilder inventions and experiments seem to serve no clear purpose. |
| 218 | * MamaBear: Jenny is certainly a powerful robot who can take care of herself, but that won't mean that Nora will tolerate anyone threatening or mistreating Jenny while she's around. Especially since she's a RetiredBadass |
| 219 | * MaidenAunt: She is an unmarried aunt to her nephew, Glenn Wakeman, though both Wisteria and Nora are {{Truly Single Parent}}s. |
| 220 | * MotherlyScientist: Jenny calls her "mom" and Dr. Wakeman certainly does view her as her daughter. |
| 221 | * NeverMessWithGranny: She [[RetiredBadass used to be part of the Skyway Patrol]] prior to the series. Even in present day she's far from any definition of "weak". |
| 222 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: She tends to leave a lot of dangerous sentient robots and old failures with old grudges that end up returning to cause trouble and get payback for her mistreating them. |
| 223 | * OlderThanTheyLook: She looks old enough to have grandchildren; she also has a de-aging machine which shaves decades off with each use. The casual air with which she mentions this implies it's been used many times. |
| 224 | * ParentalFavoritism: Although she created the entire XJ series and they call her "Mother" or "Mom", she only really sees Jenny as her daughter and the other ones not so much. Partially justified as the other XJ units are flawed prototypes. |
| 225 | * TheProfessor: She created Jenny and tends to provide her with upgrades and gadgets of her own design to help Jenny take on tough opponents. |
| 226 | * RedheadsAreUncool: When she was a young child she had red hair and was looked at as an outcast. |
| 227 | * ShorterMeansSmarter: One of the shortest people on the show, but almost one of the (if not most) smartest characters. |
| 228 | * SiblingYinYang: With her sister, Wisteria. While Nora has a scientific, logical and mechanical view, Wisteria is more based on nature and was a flower child with potential mystic elements. Also telling in their children, Nora's robot daughter, Jenny, and Wisteria's PlantPerson son, Glenn. |
| 229 | * ShipperOnDeck: When Nora first sees Sheldon and everyone is assuming he's Jenny's boyfriend, she immediately expresses approval, mostly because he's a gangly scientist-type like her. |
| 230 | * TrulySingleParent: Nora considers XJ-9 her daughter (the other XJ robots somewhat less so), and despite Brad and Tuck always calling her "Mrs. Wakemen", she's never been married. |
| 231 | * WhereDoesHeGetAllThoseWonderfulToys: It's never explained where Wakeman gets the funding for all her insanely destructive creations. She used to work for Skyway Patrol but has long since cut ties with them and is regarded as a crackpot by many. However, she is shown in one episode to be actually buying machinery at a robot's convention, so it's implied she's quite independently wealthy. |

| 238 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/QuintonFlynn, Creator/KaihiamalMartinez (Latin American Spanish) |
| 239 | |
| 240 | Jenny's self-proclaimed romantic admirer. |
| 241 | ---- |
| 242 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Towards Jenny at first, [[SubvertedTrope but he mellows out of his stalking in later episodes.]] |
| 243 | * AcePilot: He's shown to be capable of flying alien spaceships competently. |
| 244 | * AgentPeacock: When he joins the secret agency, his codename is "Baron Von Fashionista III". |
| 245 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Absolutely EVERYONE in the school (save for Jenny and Brad) hates him and keep away from him at all times. |
| 246 | * AmbiguouslyBi: In one episode he has a conversation with Jenny discussing which members of a Boy Band is the cutest. |
| 247 | * AscendedExtra: Went from a minor character in season 1 to pretty much one of the main characters by the end of the show. |
| 248 | * AsianAndNerdy: While his ethnicity isn't confirmed in the show, his surname suggests an Asian background and the Japanese citizens shown have similar skin tones and facial features as him. |
| 249 | * AwesomeButImpractical: He likes to go about things in a needlessly complicated way. In the beginning of "Shell Game", he uses a gun-like gizmo which extends small appendages to open a soda bottle just so he can use the bottle cap with which to hit Jenny, distracting her long enough for him to stand before her. [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Yeah]]. |
| 250 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: He starts crushing on Jenny because she saved him from bullies. |
| 251 | * BenevolentBoss: During his time as a space pirate captain, an elderly Sheldon was considered a great leader by his crew members. When he left the crew to get back to Earth, the pirates followed him and assumed that their captain was kidnapped by Jenny. |
| 252 | * BigBrotherInstinct: They're not related, but he was very protective of Tuck in "A Pain In My Sidekick", trying to save him from enemies and crying when he thought Tuck might have died at the end of the episode. |
| 253 | * ButtMonkey: Suffers quite a bit over the course of the series. |
| 254 | * ChivalrousPervert: Towards Jenny. It may seem sometimes that he's only interested in Jenny's robot abilities and design, but in other episodes, proven otherwise. For example, once Jenny wanted him to remove all her equipment, and he complied (although reluctantly) and spent hours on end removing all of it despite knowing how she would look afterwards. |
| 255 | * ClarkKenting: Despite rather blatant evidence that Silver Shell is him (the similar names, it's just a "shell" he pilots, and the head crest that looks like Sheldon's hair), no one ever suspects this. |
| 256 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite frequently prat-falls and his nerdy appearance, Sheldon eventually shows himself to be rather competent, managing to sneak past the Wakemans' security system, help Nora board a Cluster warship, live as space pirate (eventually a captain) [[spoiler:''for decades'']], and even spent a while as a secret agent. |
| 257 | * DistressedDude: Though [[TookALevelInBadass this becomes less frequent later on]]. |
| 258 | * DoggedNiceGuy: Several times his sincere and friendly attitude have gotten Jenny's affection, [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption only to lose it]] because of a misunderstanding or because Jenny found out something very ''un''pleasant that he'd done recently. |
| 259 | * DudeWheresMyRespect: He can't ever get any respect. Period. |
| 260 | * ForgottenPhlebotinum: Sheldon treats the Silver Shell suit only as a means to get closer to Jenny. He never thinks of using it for anything else, like defending the Earth from the Cluster when Jenny is MIA in the movie. After Jenny loses her infatuation with the Silver Shell, he only uses it once more, when Tuck finds the thing in his garage. |
| 261 | * GadgeteerGenius: He's created functioning PowerArmor, his own robots (though nothing as [[RidiculouslyHumanRobots human-like]] as Nora's), new gadgets for Jenny to use, and a functioning time machine. |
| 262 | * HatedByAll: Absolutely EVERYONE at school hates him. The bullies and popular kids hate him for being a nerd, and constantly pick on him for it. Brad doesn't seem to care that much about him and most of the time, Jenny is annoyed by his crush on her. |
| 263 | * HatesMySecretIdentity: Sheldon creates the superhero identity of Silver Shell so Jenny will date him (and to convince Jenny to date him for real). It eventually backfires when she gets frustrated with the Shell and traps Sheldon in a web of lies. |
| 264 | * HeroWorshipper: A variant in that he's smitten with XJ-9 as well as seeing her as a role model. |
| 265 | * InTouchWithHisFeminineSide: Sheldon's not exactly a masculine type, and he has interests in Fashion Magazines and Boy Bands. |
| 266 | * InterspeciesRomance: He’s a human with a one-sided crush on Jenny, a robot. |
| 267 | * LargeHam: As the Silver Shell, he has melodramatic and hammy dialogue to play up his being a superhero. |
| 268 | * NiceGuy: Despite his stalker tendencies and jealously issues, he's quite a friendly sweetheart especially to Jenny. |
| 269 | * OlderThanTheyLook: [[spoiler:The events of "Good Old Sheldon" ended with him physically 15 years old, but '''105''' chronologically and mentally--and he remembers ''all'' of it.]] |
| 270 | * OnlySaneMan: At times. In "Mist Opportunities", he's the only one to call out Jenny for letting Misty be the town's hero, despite the first time she showed up, she left the Earth when it was under attack because she felt like it. In "Historionics", Jenny and Brad were infatuated with Wizzly, but Sheldon reminds them that Wizzly's animatronics were trying to kill them. In "A Robot For All Seasons", everyone thinks Jenny became evil ''except'' for Sheldon, who believes that either a) Jenny was BrainwashedAndCrazy or b) she has an EvilTwin, with the former option being correct. |
| 271 | * RescueRomance: Sheldon meets and falls hard for Jenny after she saves him from some bullies in shop class. |
| 272 | * {{Robosexual}}: He's a human who has a crush on Jenny, a robot. Vexus uses this to her advantage in "Designing Women", wherein she disguises as a robot girl to distract him long enough to get the XJ-9 blueprints he stole from Nora. It ''works'', implying that Sheldon really is only sexually interested in robots. |
| 273 | * SingleTargetSexuality: Jenny is the only person he's attracted to. |
| 274 | * StalkerShrine: He has an abnormally large collection of pictures of Jenny in his closet and his locker. |
| 275 | * StalkerWithACrush: In his introduction episode he was definitively this, but in later episodes he is more friendly and helpful towards Jenny, although he still has his moments here and there. |
| 276 | * StrongButUnskilled: As the Silver Shell, his fighting style is rather sloppy but the suit is strong enough for him to last. |
| 277 | * ThrowTheDogABone: A few episodes end up well for him. In the Christmas special Jenny finally gives him a kiss. She gives him another in "Agent 00' Sheldon" although [[YankTheDogsChain she starts attacking when she found out he was spying on her]]. Also in "The Price of Love", it's revealed in 20 years he'll become a billionaire. |
| 278 | * TookALevelInBadass: Started off as a meek nerd who could barely defend himself against bullies. In later episodes he's been things like a space pirate captain to a secret agent. Go figure. |
| 279 | * UndyingLoyalty: In the Christmas episode, he's the only person to stay by Jenny's side when the entire town has turned against her by this point. |
| 280 | * WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Not Sheldon himself, but Jenny is infatuated with his alter-ego the Silver Shell. Sheldon-as-Shell deliberately acted like a jerk to turn Jenny off dating robots, but it backfired. In later episodes, Jenny would get irritated enough at the Shell because of his obnoxiousness, but continues to admire him the next time he appears. |
| 281 | * YankTheDogsChain: There are a few moments where he comes close to gaining Jenny's affection only for it to be ruined in the last moment due to a misunderstanding or his prior actions biting him in the ass. |

| 289 | |
| 290 | XJ-9's prototypes and "sisters". |
| 291 | ---- |
| 292 | * BabyTalk: XJ-1 only babbles, cries, and whimpers like an infant. |
| 293 | * BigLittleSister: XJ-8 is much larger than Jenny despite being considered her younger sister. She is technically ''also'' older (which would make XJ-1 the LittleBigSister), though Jenny seems to have spent the most time online. |
| 294 | * BrawnHilda: XJ-8 is enormous, bulky and speaks in a deep MachineMonotone, overall causing her to appear very masculine. She retains the GirlishPigtails and miniskirt shared by many of her sisters, however, and is always referred to with female pronouns. |
| 295 | * BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: Once, after Jenny got captured by the Cluster, she sent out an emergency beacon that reactivated them. With the exception of XJ-8 they don't appear to be combat-ready, but do okay as they apparently have the same [[TelescopingRobot telescoping armor]] Jenny does. |
| 296 | * CombiningMecha: Not exactly in a true "mecha" sense, but they do have the ability to join together to form various weapons along with the "Robo Wall". |
| 297 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: They're all quite a bit more eccentric and less competent than Jenny is, but never fail to pull through when it counts. |
| 298 | * CuteClumsyGirl: XJ-3 constantly trips and [[EasilyDetachableRobotParts falls apart]]. |
| 299 | * CyberCyclops: XJ-3 has one physical eye that sits on top of her body while XJ-6 has a [[TVHeadRobot computer display face]] that shows one eye. |
| 300 | * TheDogBitesBack: Their final episode (and the unofficial final episode of the series) has them BrainwashedAndCrazy and attacking Mrs. Wakeman. They all seem at least somewhat cognizant of the situation and are gleeful at the chance to get revenge against their [[ParentalNeglect neglectful mother.]] |
| 301 | * TheEeyore: XJ-7 is constantly depressed, even lamenting that she couldn't even ''destroy herself'' properly. |
| 302 | * EnergyWeapon: XJ-2 is basically a laser gun with legs and eyes. |
| 303 | * {{Expy}}: XJ-7 is basically a female version of [[Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy Marvin the Paranoid Android]], her introductory line even directly referencing one of the books he came from. |
| 304 | * FlawedPrototype: All of them. Unlike most examples of the trope, though, they are clearly functional testbeds that do well within the parameters of their design - and importantly, build upon the previous iteration towards a humanoid robot that can function equally as a guardian and as a friend to humans. |
| 305 | ** XJ-1 appears to be an self-contained AI proof-of-concept. ...but as a result, she's a literal baby. |
| 306 | ** XJ-2 adds to this with mobility and a weapon. ...but she's no different from a self-propelled weapon. |
| 307 | ** XJ-3 is a humanoid form and miniaturization proof-of-concept. ...but suffers from structural integrity issues. |
| 308 | ** XJ-4 is capable of completing non-combat tasks and, importantly, interact with humans. ...but has a 'neat-freak' personality. |
| 309 | ** XJ-5 can fly and interact with humans well. ...but has a 'talky' personality. |
| 310 | ** XJ-6 can walk effectively. ...but has an inferiority complex. |
| 311 | ** XJ-7 has two humanoid arms and a durable form ...but she also has a tremendously morose personality. |
| 312 | ** XJ-8 has legs, is durable enough for combat, and her personality doesn't display the extremes her sisters do (actually a huge breakthrough, given how serious a flaw it is for XJ-4 through XJ-7). ...but has an imposing presence that won't help with human interaction, and a somewhat black-and-white personality. |
| 313 | ** XJ-9 is miniaturized into a human-sized form and is capable of full human socialization. ...but is heavily affected by said socialization, like an actual teenager. |
| 314 | * GirlishPigtails: XJ-5, XJ-6, XJ-7 and XJ-8 all sport a RobotHair-style pair. |
| 315 | * GreenEyedMonster: Everyone word XJ-6 says is complaining about someone else, usually Jenny, getting more attention than her. Bonus points for her eye actually being green. |
| 316 | * HiccupHijinks: XJ-2 constantly hiccups, causing her to misfire. |
| 317 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: XJ-6 spends most of her screentime acting spiteful about how everyone pays more attention to her sisters than to her, while XJ-8 generally acts like a needlessly blunt and aggressive security enforcer, but both immediately jump into action alongside their other sisters to help Jenny when she's in trouble. XJ-6 even states that she always puts family first. |
| 318 | * TheLeader: XJ-5, perhaps by virtue of being the resident chatterbox, tends to take charge of the group when Jenny isn't around. |
| 319 | * MachineMonotone: XJ-8 speaks like this, though the tone changes depending on the episode. |
| 320 | * MiddleChildSyndrome: XJ-6 appears to view herself as the constantly overlooked middle sibling, and is very resentful about it. More accurately, though, XJ-5 would be the middle sibling. |
| 321 | * MotorMouth: XJ-5 sounds like a used car salesman and never, ever stops talking. Justifiable in a sense; from the look of her eyes and her speaker mouth she may have been constructed using parts from a radio, and radios NEVER stop broadcasting. |
| 322 | * NeatFreak: XJ-4 compulsively cleans everything she sees. |
| 323 | * RidiculouslyHumanRobots: The XJ sisters appear to be gradually working towards this. May also be why XJ-8 isn't the last in the line. |
| 324 | * SlidingScaleOfRobotIntelligence: Most of them are Average Joe like Jenny, but XJ-1, XJ-2, XJ-3 are closer to Robo-Monkeys, being like a human baby and toddlers, respectively. XJ-8 is also a lower-level Average Joe than the rest, being very blunt and inexpressive. |
| 325 | * SuperPrototype: XJ-8 is physically stronger than Jenny--to the point that she's really not looking forward to fighting her--but doesn't have Jenny's "quirk and charm" according to Dr. Wakeman. Being [[NoSocialSkills so terrible at talking to people]] still makes her a FlawedPrototype even in terms of being a superhero, as she, for instance, thought children breaking a pinata were committing a crime. |
| 326 | * TeamMom: Along with being a NeatFreak, XJ-4 seems to be the most inclined to comforting the infantile XJ-1 when she's upset. |
| 327 | * TheUnfavorite: XJ-6 is convinced that she's this, and constantly complains about it. To a degree they ''all'' count as this compared to Jenny, who is the only one among them that Dr. Wakeman views as a success. |
| 328 | * TheVoiceless: XJ-2 and XJ-3 are completely silent. XJ-1 can't speak, but is capable of uttering baby babble. |
| 329 | * WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: In a rather heartbreaking contrast to her treatment of Jenny, Dr. Wakeman doesn't think of any of these eight as being anything other than failed prototypes, and prefers keeping them deactivated in storage whenever possible. This leads to some conflict with Jenny, who views them as her younger sisters. |

| 335 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 336 | * FantasticRacism: They consider organic lifeforms, [[CallAHumanAMeatbag especially humans]], to be a blight on the universe and seek to enslave them [[PayEvilUntoEvil as an almost ironic role-reversal of how they use machines]]. |
| 337 | * MechanicalInsects: They are a race of humanoid robots with their military/elites having insect-like characteristics. Their queen, Vexus, is designed after bees with wings on her back, antennae and serves as the "Hive Queen" of them (with added Egyptian motif to reinforce this). |
| 338 | * MechanicalLifeforms: They are a race of robots with no stated organic precursors who have built their own interplanetary society. |
| 339 | * ScaryDogmaticAliens: A mix of "Communist" and "Conquistador" Variety. Cluster Prime is seen as a haven for robots of all types, though its inhabitants are fed a steady diet of propaganda to ensure the status quo, regular Cluster citizens being denied the chip that gives them their transformative abilities using Jenny as a convenient scapegoat. Everywhere else they are a dogmatic race of conquerors that try to recruit other robots (Vexus trying to convert Jenny regularly) and enslave all other lifeforms they come across. |

| 346 | |
| 347 | The tyrannical queen of the Cluster who constantly tries to get Jenny to go with her to her homeworld of Cluster Prime through immoral means. |
| 348 | ---- |
| 349 | * AnimalMotif: She and the Cluster Army clearly resembles insects, Vexus in-particular resembles that of an Egyptian Sacred Scarab with her NephariousPharaoh appearance. |
| 350 | * ArchEnemy: Vexus to Jenny, and vice-versa. Vexus isn't even happy with conquering Earth unless Jenny is there to see it. |
| 351 | * AttentionWhore: She's devolved into this by the season 3 episode "Queen Bee". After losing her planet, she's overjoyed at the idea of being adored by everyone at Tremorton High. |
| 352 | * BadSamaritan: She claims to be a liberator of machines, though her definition of "liberation" is merely a sugar-coated "[[RobotsEnslavingRobots assimilation into our collective]]". |
| 353 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Spends most of the first and second seasons trying to bring Jenny to Cluster Prime. And what happens when she actually gets there? |
| 354 | -->'''Cluster Prime:''' Down with Vexus! Down with Vexus! Down with Vexus! |
| 355 | * BeePeople: She has a lot of queen bee motifs. |
| 356 | * BigBad: As the leader of the Cluster, Vexus functions as the main villain of the series. |
| 357 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: |
| 358 | ** She'll figuratively (and often literally) put on the guise of a human being or fellow robot to give off the impression of a good samaritan when she's the exact opposite. |
| 359 | ** If "Escape From Cluster Prime" was any indication, she was this to her own people, with none of the Cluster Prime citizens having any clue she was evil until [[spoiler:Vega]] publicly revealed it. |
| 360 | * BreakTheHaughty: She eventually loses her dictatorship over Cluster Prime, reducing her to a madwoman living on a garbage planet and talking to the creatures crawling around it. [[UnexplainedRecovery She's mostly back to normal]] by the end of the third season and menacing Jenny as usual, though without her empire behind her, she's significantly less of a threat. |
| 361 | * BrokenPedestal: [[spoiler:Toward her daughter Vega, who never believed she was downright evil. Upon learning the truth, she helps Jenny overthrow her own mother]]. |
| 362 | * {{Determinator}}: Not even losing her entire planet and empire will deter her from attempting to destroy Jenny, and humanity by extension. |
| 363 | * DependingOnTheArtist: Her appearance almost never remains consistent throughout the entire series. |
| 364 | * DiminishingVillainThreat: Justified. Vexus remains a fairly consistent threat across the first two seasons, until [[spoiler:she's dethroned by her daughter]] in "Escape From Cluster Prime". Without access to her army, resources, or public support from her own people, Vexus can't realistically threaten the Earth-like she used to. By her final appearance, her ambitions have decayed to ruling a high school because of her popularity, rather than taking over the planet. |
| 365 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler:She does care about her daughter, to the point the latter considers her overbearing. Also included is the Nanobot she used to infect and brainwash Jenny with in "Hostile Makeover", which, after it was removed Jenny threatened to destroy if she harmed Tuck in any way]]. |
| 366 | * EvilMatriarch: Of Cluster Prime and the empire as a whole. |
| 367 | * FantasticRacism: Doesn't like humans very much, even labeling them "flesh wearers". |
| 368 | * FauxAffablyEvil: She is usually polite to Jenny, even while trying to destroy her or assimilate her into the Cluster. |
| 369 | * GalacticConqueror: Being the leader of an interstellar robot extremist empire bent on enslaving the human race, she certainly qualifies. |
| 370 | * GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Cluster Prime's residents are actually good-natured, but misled by Vexus' propaganda that paint Jenny as a horrid monster. |
| 371 | * GreaterScopeVillain: In episodes where Smytus or Krackus serve as the antagonists, being the head of the empire they defer to. |
| 372 | * HartmanHips: Her hips and thighs are wide enough to reach her torso. |
| 373 | * HiveQueen: If her queen bee motif didn't give it away, she's the head of a collective of bug-themed robots. |
| 374 | * HowTheMightyHaveFallen: After losing her empire in season 2, she's much less of a threat without her army behind her, and even devolves into insanity at one point. She gets better, but has been reduced to trying to take over a high school, a far cry from her planetary conquests. |
| 375 | * {{Hypocrite}}: She and the Cluster in general insist humans are unjustly controlling Earth's machines, yet she's quite the tyrant herself, and will gladly [[RobotsEnslavingRobots use mind control to force those same machines]] to join the Cluster, willing or not. |
| 376 | * InconsistentSpelling: Subtitles on the episodes often misspell her name as “Vexas”. |
| 377 | * JoinOrDie: Her general philosophy when it comes to assimilating robots into the Cluster. |
| 378 | * KnightOfCerebus: While she definitely has her comedic moments, Vexus gives off an entirely different vibe and is usually played more seriously compared to other villains Jenny has faced. She even nearly succeeds in turning Jenny into a member of the Cluster in her debut episode. |
| 379 | * LaserGuidedKarma: Being a deceptive tyrant who tries to force Jenny to join the Cluster and enslave humanity, it's only fitting that she loses her entire planet in the process. |
| 380 | * LetsGetDangerous: In "Escape From Cluster Prime", Vexus finally gets fed up with Jenny constantly foiling her plans, so she gathers up her entire military and outright invades Earth. |
| 381 | * ManipulativeBitch: She relies on cunning and subterfuge to accomplish her goals. One notable example is her using Sheldon to acquire Jenny's blueprints for herself, so as to predict her weapons and counter them effectively. And that's not even getting into her propaganda campaign to keep her subjects ignorant of her true nature, while demonizing Jenny. |
| 382 | * MsFanservice: Despite her exotic, insect-like appearance, she is a tall, downright gorgeous robot with long, curvy legs, wide hips, and speaks in a sultry tone. |
| 383 | * NephariousPharaoh: With her nemes headgear, wadjet-like eyes and what looks like a solar disc between her antennae Vexus' appearance has a definitive Egyptian motif and she is a ruthless despot. |
| 384 | * Really700YearsOld: Actually ''2000'' years old. In "Queen Bee", she disguises herself as a teen and was popular enough to take over Jenny's school. Jenny exploits this trope to make the student body turn on Vexus, since they want nothing to do with an old person. |
| 385 | * RevengeBeforeReason: |
| 386 | ** She had already shown shades of this early on during "Escape From Cluster Prime", as if it weren't for Smytus, she would have kept the invasion on hold till she got a chance to finally destroy Jenny. |
| 387 | ** In "Trash Talk" she plans to blow up the planet Jenny is on, despite being on the planet herself and having no viable way off. She ''did'' consider that fact, however, and built a ship for her, Krackus, and Smytus to escape off of. Unfortunately, due to both limited resources and her [[SanitySlippage declining sanity]], said ship is the size of a ''thermos''. |
| 388 | * SanitySlippage: By her appearance in "Trash Talk", she's lost more than a few screws, planning to blow up a planet she's on and escaping in a pod that can only fit a hamster. She gets better by "Queen Bee". |
| 389 | * ShadowArchetype: For someone who despises humanity and boasts about robot superiority, she herself possesses some of their worst traits, being a ruthless, manipulative dictator who lies to her own people and forces other machines to convert to her collective. |
| 390 | * StatuesqueStunner: She is slightly taller than Jenny and has an exotic yet attractive design and figure. |
| 391 | * TakeOverTheWorld: Pretty much her entire plot in a nutshell. |
| 392 | * TotallyRadical: She would have blended in while she was destroying Jenny if she only realized that TheRoaringTwenties were over for almost a century now. |
| 393 | * TsurimeEyes: Her eyes are slanted upwards. |
| 394 | * UnexplainedRecovery: For her last appearance. After always getting away unscathed during the first two seasons, she finally [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty gets kicked off of her planet and launched into space at the end of the Season 2 finale]]. She shows up being stranded on the Garbage Planet with Smytus and Krackus in Season 3, where the episode ends with [[EarthShatteringKaboom the entire planet exploding]] with all three villains still on it, and even moreso, their plans for escape being confirmed to have failed. Inexplicably, Vexus shows up again in a later Season 3 episode to terrorize Jenny at her high school, with mentions of her losing her status as queen confirming that it is in fact chronologically later, but no explanation for how she survived being on a planet that exploded with her on it. |
| 395 | * VillainousBreakdown: She remains fairly composed for most of the series, but she ''really'' starts to lose it when Jenny turns her entire planet against her rule. By the time of "Trash Talk", she's been reduced to madness, trying to use some random scraps of garbage to build an escape pod and referring to Krackus and Smytus with nonsensical names. |
| 396 | * VillainDecay: As the head of the Cluster Empire, Vexus was the biggest threat of the first two seasons. In the ''Escape From Cluster Prime'' special, she loses everything; her armies, her planet, and even [[spoiler:her own daughter's]] turned against her. She returns in season 3, stranded on a junk asteroid and gone insane. While she regains her senses later on, she never approaches the same scope of villainy as she did with her empire. |
| 397 | * WeCanRuleTogether: She makes this offer with Jenny, trying to get her to help her robot brethren, destroy the human race, and become Cluster royalty. You can guess what Jenny's answer was. |

| 404 | |
| 405 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SteveBlum |
| 406 | |
| 407 | A large green robot from the Cluster who seems to have ties to its military division. |
| 408 | ---- |
| 409 | |
| 410 | * AffablyEvil: He can be surprisingly friendly and affable for an evil, militaristic villain. |
| 411 | * BadassBoast: |
| 412 | -->'''Brad:''' We can do it! We can stop them! We haven't met a robot yet we can't destroy!\ |
| 413 | '''Smytus:''' Then you haven't met ''me''! |
| 414 | * BadBoss: His answer to one incompetent minion causing him to lose the Pip crystals? ''[[ThrownOutTheAirlock Throw his entire crew out the airlock]]''. |
| 415 | * BaritoneOfStrength: Comes with being voiced by Steve Blum. |
| 416 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: In keeping with the Cluster's bug-theme, Smytus resembles a large rhinoceros beetle. |
| 417 | * BondVillainStupidity: His FatalFlaw, complete with EvilGloating, 10 second countdowns, the whole set. |
| 418 | * TheBrute: Compared to Vexus, who prefers deception and subterfuge, Smytus prefers to employ more direct methods of assimilation. Ironically, this makes him more competent than Vexus as the series wears on. |
| 419 | * CardCarryingVillain: If his "''DESTROYER OF WORLDS!''" speech is anything to go by, he ''really'' enjoys being a villain. |
| 420 | * TheDragon: For Vexus. Smytus is the commander of the Cluster's military and acts as her second-in-command as they invade Earth. |
| 421 | * DragonTheirFeet: Vexus and defeated and dethroned in the climax of ''Escape From Cluster Prime'' but Smytus is still threatening Earth with the main invasion force. Fortunately for the heroes, Jenny deals with him quickly once she returns to Earth. |
| 422 | * DudeWheresMyRespect: In his first appearance, he laments that Vexus gives him demeaning nicknames. |
| 423 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: A minor example, but his eyes were much smaller in his debut appearance. |
| 424 | * EvilGloating: Thanks to his ego, he will engage in this any chance he gets. |
| 425 | * EvilIsHammy: As demonstrated with IncomingHam below, he has the subtlety of a sledgehammer to the face. |
| 426 | * EvilLaugh: Goes hand in hand with his LargeHam. He's very fond of these. |
| 427 | * EvilSoundsDeep: Not as deep as some of Blum's other roles, but still pretty low-pitched. |
| 428 | * FantasticRacism: Like the rest of the Cluster, he doesn't hold "fleshbags" in very high regard. |
| 429 | * HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: After blowing himself up at the end of "Escape From Cluster Prime", Smytus is reduced to a torso, and is forced to walk on makeshift legs cobbled together from junk. |
| 430 | * HowTheMightyHaveFallen: By season 3, he's lost his armies, his status, his pride, and half his body. Revenge is the last thing on his mind; he just wants his legs back. |
| 431 | * HyperCompetentSidekick: As the series goes on, Smytus steps into this role. Whereas Vexus [[MotiveDecay grows an unhealthily obsession]] with Jenny, Smytus remains focused on the Cluster's goals on conquest. This culminates in "Escape From Cluster Prime", where he takes control of the invasion when it becomes obvious Vexus is wasting time and resources on Jenny. He nearly conquers Earth easily, whereas Vexus had spent the last two seasons utterly failing to do so. He's also [[PragmaticVillainy smart enough to consider the possibility that the planet is more trouble than it's worth]] and opts to destroy it instead, rather than obsessing over it like Vexus. |
| 432 | -->'''Vexus:''' Where is XJ-9? The decimation of Earth is finally at my fingerips and I ''[[RevengeBeforeReason refuse]]'' [[RevengeBeforeReason to fight this battle without her!]] |
| 433 | -->'''Smytus:''' Well, ''[[NoNonsenseNemesis I]]'' don't. |
| 434 | * IncomingHam: "Bow to me, mortal, and tremble in fear! Before you stands Smytus, lord of the outer rims, mayor of moon robia, cappo of the cram nebula, and '''DESTROYER OF WORLDS!'''" ''[cue DramaticThunder]'' |
| 435 | * IJustWantToHaveFriends: Played with. He perks up quite a lot when he's complimented by the humans, and he has to remind his minions to [[LaughWithMe laugh with him]] after he makes a hammy speech. |
| 436 | * LargeAndInCharge: He's bigger than most of the established Cluster villains, and is their military commander. |
| 437 | * LaughWithMe: He has to order his minions to engage in an EvilLaugh with him... like they mean it. |
| 438 | * MeaningfulName: Smytus sounds like it's derived from "smite," meaning "to defeat and/or conquer," which fits his occupation as a conquering warlord. |
| 439 | * NearVillainVictory: Has came close to winning at least twice. |
| 440 | ** He'd successfully assimilated Jenny, along with 7 of the other XJ-sisters, and was about to have her destroy her own mother... until XJ-1 barfed in her face, snapping her out of it. |
| 441 | ** In the special, he nearly destroyed the planet in Jenny's absence, until he was foiled again by her timely intervention. |
| 442 | * NotQuiteDead: He seemingly perished at the end of ''Escape From Cluster Prime'' when he activates his self-destruct, but later shows up in season 3... HalfTheManHeUsedToBe but alive nonetheless. |
| 443 | * PaperThinDisguise: He puts on a wig and tries to pass himself off as Smytlana, a Ukrainian supermodel. After a short while of being complimented, ''[[BecomingTheMask he falls for the disguise himself]]''. |
| 444 | * PostFinalBoss: In ''Escape From Cluster Prime'', Jenny finally cripples Vexus's empire by turning its people against her, but still has to deal with Smytus threatening to destroy the earth. By that point, however, Smytus is more of a loose end that needs tying up. |
| 445 | * SelfDestructMechanism: He has one literally stored up his sleeve. [[BondVillainStupidity Of course, it comes with a ten second countdown, as well.]] |
| 446 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Downplayed by the end of the series. Smytus is actually fairly competent, so it's unlikely his "destroyer of worlds speech" is all bluster, though he still thinks too highly of himself and comes off as a tryhard with his gloating. |
| 447 | * SmugSnake: Credit where it's due, Smytus is a capable villain, but he often overestimates his abilities and indulges in gloating far too often, which bites him hard. |
| 448 | * SoreLoser: Has some shades of this. Main example comes from when the XJ-sisters are able to free Jenny from his control, and he almost throws a tantrum. |
| 449 | * SurroundedByIdiots: His opinion of the drones under his command. |
| 450 | * TakingYouWithMe: With his ship, armies, and robot factories in ruin, Smytus activates his self-destruct to destroy Jenny and take as many humans with him as possible, as a final act of defiance and spite. It doesn't work quite the way he intended, as said self-destruct came with a ten second countdown, giving Jenny time to stop him. |
| 451 | -->'''Smytus:''' Not so fast, XJ-9. You may have destroyed my mega-weapon, and my ship, and my robot factory, and my troops, but I still have one more thing up my sleeve. Literally! Self-destruct, baby! Every supervillain's last resort! Say goodbye to your beloved fleshbags! This ends now... in ten seconds! |
| 452 | * TopHeavyGuy: One of, if not the strongest of Vexus' minions, yet he has very stumpy legs. |
| 453 | * UncertainDoom: Smytus, Vexus, and Krackus were all present on the garbage planet when it blew up. Since Vexus returns later on, it's possible Smytus and Krackus survived as well, and may have reappeared had the series continued. |
| 454 | * VillainBall: He gives his self-destruct sequence a countdown, allowing Jenny enough time to throw his ship into orbit right before it explodes. Woops. |

| 461 | ->'''Vexus:''' This better not be another crackpot invention.\ |
| 462 | '''Krackus:''' It isn't! I mean, it is, but this time it worked! |
| 463 | |
| 464 | A senile, older Cluster robot who often bungles his experiments and forgets where he is all the time. His inventions almost never last for very long, but he's not one to give up easily. |
| 465 | ---- |
| 466 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: He may be an old coot with a failing memory, but he's still a capable inventor. Like what Nora tells her daughter, "Don't underestimate him! Sooner or later he may invent something that actually works!" |
| 467 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: He bears a resemblance to a large beetle or cockroach. |
| 468 | * BunglingInventor: He's pretty clumsy and most of his inventions fall apart after being used once. |
| 469 | * EvilGenius: He's the brains of the Cluster, though everyone else believes otherwise. |
| 470 | * EvilOldFolks: A crackpot inventor with a few screws loose, but is one of the Cluster's top inventors. |
| 471 | * InformedFlaw: He's treated as a joke by most characters mostly due to being a completely senile old man, but his inventions largely work as intended. |
| 472 | * MeaningfulName: Krackus' name is likely derived from the term "crackpot", which fits with how foolish he can be in both personality and his inventions. |
| 473 | * MiniatureSeniorCitizens: He's the shortest member of the Cluster seen before the BigDamnMovie. |
| 474 | * NotSoHarmlessVillain: He's called one of the most incompetent members of the Cluster, even getting laughed at. Yet most of the time, his inventions work as intended and he is a legitimate threat. |
| 475 | * OnlySaneMan: In "Trash Talk" he's the only one who wants to use Jenny's fuel to power a spaceship to get off the trash planet, whereas Vexus is completely off her rocker and wants to blow up the planet (despite having no way off), and Smytus wants to get a new pair of legs, regardless of the fact that he'd still be stuck on the planet. |
| 476 | * RobotHair: Has a metal mustache that [[MonstrousMandibles also functions as a mouth in imitation of a beetle's mandibles]]. |
| 477 | * RollerbladeGood: Fits under the 'Whose feet are wheels' variant. |
| 478 | * UncertainDoom: Krackus, Smytus, and Vexus were present on the garbage planet when it blew up. While Vexus was shown to survive, it's unknown what happened to Krackus or Smytus due to the show's abrupt cancellation. |

| 487 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TaraStrong |
| 488 | |
| 489 | A small, adorable wind up robot from a toyline, Killgore somehow managed to attain sentience and decides to fulfill its purpose as a villain, first by joining the Cluster and capturing Jenny, then by destroying the Cluster ''and'' Jenny. Things don't always go as planned for him, however. |
| 490 | ---- |
| 491 | * BadassAdorable: He managed to outsmart Jenny twice and [[spoiler:rebuild Armagedroid, who is ''millions'' of times Killgore's size.]] |
| 492 | * BaitAndSwitchCharacterIntro: His first scene introduces him as a [[EvilSoundsDeep deep-voiced]] silhouetted seemingly-hulking figure only for the lights in the toy store he's in to be turned on to reveal his bright color scheme, and the shop owner walks over and winds him up to reveal he's not only tiny, but his real voice is very high-pitched. |
| 493 | * BrattyHalfPint: He drives Jenny ''bonkers'' in his debut by virtue of pestering her to "SURRENDER!" |
| 494 | * CardCarryingVillain: Killgore insists you read his tag! |
| 495 | * CharacterCatchphrase: |
| 496 | ** '''Surrender''' |
| 497 | ** '''[[LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn "BA-NAH!"]]''' |
| 498 | * CuteIsEvil: He's considered the cutest thing ever in-series, and a CardCarryingVillain through-and-through. Jenny's biggest problem with facing him is that she can't fight back without people hating her for it. |
| 499 | * DeathbringerTheAdorable: Sure the name may sound threatening, but it's so gosh-darn cute! |
| 500 | * {{Determinator}}: To his credit, he's persistent. He spends most of his debut annoying Jenny into submission. |
| 501 | * EnemyMine: With Jenny in the end of his debut episode and most of "Enclosure of Doom". |
| 502 | * EvilIsHammy: He yells a lot and he’s very melodramatic. |
| 503 | * EvilSoundsDeep: He has a very deep voice when not wound up, otherwise he sounds very high-pitched. The first few seconds of the episode he's introduced in has him not wound up yet as part of his BaitAndSwitchCharacterIntro. |
| 504 | * {{Expy}}: Seems to be one of WesternAnimation/InvaderZim. He's a short hammy non-human with a high pitched voice and speaks in ThirdPersonPerson who wishes to please an intergalactic EvilEmpire by destroying mankind while having delusions of grandiose. He causes grief for the main hero, but nobody else seems to care for his villainy. |
| 505 | * HarmlessVillain: To the point where he was outright rejected by the Cluster. [[NotSoHarmlessVillain But he does somehow manage to enlist the help of ''Armagedroid'' in his second episode.]] |
| 506 | * IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Once Jenny has a chance to destroy Killgore [[WhatYouAreInTheDark with no one being the wiser]], she decides she can't hurt a defenseless creature even if it's driving her crazy. |
| 507 | * InstantAIJustAddWater: Why a windup toy is sentient [[RuleOfFunny is not remotely addressed]]. |
| 508 | * LaughablyEvil: He provides a lot of humor with his LargeHam tendencies, his futile attempts to defeat Jenny, and his wanting to be considered a threat while being irritated by how most people find him adorable. |
| 509 | * LovedByAll: Everyone adores Killgore for his cuteness. The only people who don’t like him are Jenny, who he drives crazy, and evil villains like the Cluster. And Jenny still sometimes acts fond of him. |
| 510 | * MadeOfIndestructium: Somehow able to resist being crushed by a closing-walls DeathTrap, albeit only for about 8 seconds. |
| 511 | * MyLittlePanzer: As much as he claims otherwise, [[SubvertedTrope nothing about Killgore's design is dangerous]]--[[DoubleSubversion any danger he poses is instead a result of trickery and persistence]]. |
| 512 | * TheNapoleon: If its 10 1/2 inch stature is any indication. |
| 513 | * NotSoHarmlessVillain: Yes, he's tiny and pathetic, but he has moments that prove he can be a legitimate threat: |
| 514 | ** In his debut episode, Jenny, driven crazy by Killgore but unable to bring herself to destroy him, hatches a plan to get him to leave her alone by pretending to surrender to the Cluster (actually Brad and Tuck in PaperThinDisguise). The plan backfires when it turns out Killgore contacted the ''real'' Cluster in advance. |
| 515 | -->'''Killgore:''' [[NobodysThatDumb Killgore is small. Killgore is not stupid.]] |
| 516 | ** His next appearance, "Enclosure of Doom," cements him as this. Remember Armagedroid, the HumongousMecha that nearly killed Jenny the first time they fought? While it's never revealed [[NoodleIncident how]], Killgore was able to rebuild him completely. |
| 517 | * ScareChord: He keeps ''saying'' the classic "buh nah" chord. |
| 518 | * SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: '''SMACK!''' '''SLAM!''' |
| 519 | * ThirdPersonPerson: Kilgore sometimes talks like this. |
| 520 | * TormentByAnnoyance: '''SURRENDER!''' |

| 522 | * VillainWithGoodPublicity: Despite ranting about how evil he is and how he wants to destroy the human race, all humans love him. |

| 530 | |
| 531 | A gigantic robot created by Dr. Wakeman back when she was a Skyway Patrol member for the purpose of eliminating alien weaponry. It turned its attention to human weapons in peacetime, forcing Dr. Wakeman to lure it into the Earth's core where it remained- for the time being. |
| 532 | ---- |
| 533 | * AIIsACrapshoot: Its directive was to destroy weapons, and when it defeated an armada of hostile aliens, it turned its fangs on humanity, believing peace required destroying ''anything'' of theirs that might be considered a weapon. Lacking any capacity for independent/humanlike thought, Armagedroid technically was still doing ''exactly what he was created to do''... only on a ''much larger scale'' than what Dr. Wakeman intended, as his ultimate goal was essentially to rid the Earth of weaponry. |
| 534 | * BackFromTheDead: After getting blown up, Killgore [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome somehow]] rebuilt him entirely. |
| 535 | * CainAndAbel: The Cain to the entire XJ series, being an earlier Wakeman prototype that has a vaguely similar color scheme. |
| 536 | * CurbStompBattle: Any time Jenny battles Armagedroid, it ends with her severely damaged, and that's when she ''wins''. The first time she tried her luck, she almost lost her life. |
| 537 | * DestructiveSaviour: Armagedroid, who was built for the purpose of eliminating dangerous weaponry, something that proved to be dangerous in peacetime. |
| 538 | * DieselPunk: He's got an ArtDeco aesthetic to make him look older than the XJ series, which all have a RaygunGothic look. |
| 539 | * EvilIsBigger: ''Way'' bigger than any adversary Jenny's encountered. |
| 540 | * EvilSoundsDeep: Courtesy of Kevin Michael Richardson. |
| 541 | * GreaterScopeVillain: It's because of him that the XJ series was created, which in turn led to Jenny's creation. He's also the only villain who succeeds in causing Jenny critical damage without any problems. Despite this, [[WeaksauceWeakness he's also easily tricked into]] [[SelfDisposingVillain self-disposing]]. |
| 542 | * HumongousMecha: Taller than most of the buildings in Tremorton. |
| 543 | * InvincibleVillain: Literally nothing could stop him, even after tunneling to the Earth's core and wading in magma for decades. Jenny is forced to convince him to destroy himself somehow or set off a bomb from inside his own body to even stop him at all. |
| 544 | * KnightOfCerebus: Definitely not one of the more comical villains. He almost killed Jenny in their first battle! |
| 545 | * KnightTemplar: He believes destroying all weapons will make the world safer, but his idea of a "weapon" gets so broad he starts destroying children's toys and kitchenware. He also doesn't care if he has to rip Jenny to pieces to disarm her. |
| 546 | * LogicBomb: Armagedroid's goal is to destroy all dangerous weaponry, so when Jenny points out that he himself is a dangerous weapon, he self-destructs. |
| 547 | * PsychoPrototype: Armagedroid was created by Dr. Wakeman as a peacekeeping robot much like Jenny. The fact that he had no real identity beyond a destroyer contributed to his eventual rebellion, the XJ-series' {{Ridiculously Human|Robots}} personalities being because of this. |
| 548 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Huge red ones. |
| 549 | * VillainTeamUp: Was later somehow rebuilt by Killgore of all people. [[GoneHorriblyRight Unfortunately, it worked too well in Armagedroid's favor.]] |
| 550 | * WhatDidYouExpectWhenYouNamedIt: Exactly what compelled Nora Wakeman to name a robot meant to protect humanity after the biblical equivalent of the end of the world? |
| 551 | * WouldHurtAChild: He resorted to trying to crush a baby in a highchair just because Armagedroid was trying to neutralize the ''Spork'' that the baby was holding. |

| 565 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: They are hardened criminals that cause mayhem and terrorize the innocent people of Tremorton for kicks, [[spoiler:but on their home planet, they act as highly respected school teachers and were beloved in their community, at least until Tuck and Jenny managed to expose them in the end. Unlike most examples, they seem to genuinely care for the people they lie to and they do not hide away their vile side from the people they do hurt.]] |
| 566 | * ButtMonkey: Lenny tends to be regularly roughed up by Letta. And the bikers as a whole always suffer when they mess with Jenny. |
| 567 | * {{Dominatrix}}: All of them are HellBentForLeather, but Letta and Lenny are quite blatantly a dominatrix and her sub. |
| 568 | * DressedInLayers: For some reason Letta wears her biker outfit under both a bridesmaid gown and [[spoiler:her school principal clothing]]. Though it ''does'' look a lot like underwear. |
| 569 | * {{Ephebophile}}: Tammy hits on a teenager, yet her job on her homeplanet greatly implies she is an adult. It's possibly just her age [[VagueAge varying by the needs of the plot]], but the show probably only got away with it because she's an alien fishwoman. |
| 570 | * ElectiveMute: Lenny can talk, but apparently only does so in [[spoiler:during his day job as a janitor]]. |
| 571 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:When their identities as school teachers get exposed, Tammy states spending all their time as violent bikers would "serve no purpose or greater good."]] |
| 572 | * FishPeople: Their species sorta resembles the Creature from the Black Lagoon. |
| 573 | * {{Gonk}}: Sludge and Olga, who are visibly uglier when compared to Tammy and even Letta and Lenny. |
| 574 | * GreenAndMean: They are trouble making thugs who all have green skin. |

| 576 | * HartmanHips: Tammy has very large hips and buttocks. |
| 577 | * HeliumSpeech: Tammy's voice is ridiculously high. |

| 579 | * HugeGirlTinyGuy: Lenny is minuscule compared to all of the other Bikers, especially his wife Letta. |
| 580 | * LaserGuidedKarma: "Voyage to the Planet of the Bikers" ends with them their losing jobs and reputations [[spoiler:as beloved teachers]] after everyone finds out what they do out of town. |
| 581 | * LivingADoubleLife: [[spoiler:They only come to Earth to raise mayhem on weekends as a way for blowing stress off from their jobs. Outside of that, they're perfectly decent, hard-working people.]] |
| 582 | * MonsterIsAMommy: [[spoiler:Sledge is revealed to have two kids and is currently expecting a third.]] |
| 583 | * MoralMyopia: They cause all sorts of destruction, including multiple attempts to [[ToServeMan eat people]]. When Jenny [[spoiler:gets them to expose their bad side to their hometown]], Letta complains that she ruined their lives over some "harmless pranks". |
| 584 | * MsFanservice: Tammy, who's very attractive when compared to everyone else in the gang, [[{{Gonk}} especially Sludge and Olga]], thanks to the occasional scenes where they focus on her wide hips and her butt. |
| 585 | * NonMammalMammaries: Despite being fish people, Letta, Sludge, and Tammy have breasts. Seemingly averted for Olga, though she appears to wear a crop top. |
| 586 | * TheNoseless: All of them except Tammy lack noses. Tammy turns out to have a nose when her full face is revealed in "Ball and Chain". |
| 587 | * TheOneGuy: Lenny is the only male in the group. |
| 588 | * PragmaticVillainy: [[spoiler:Sledge reasons that being bikers 24 hours a day isn't reasonable because how would they afford a living without steady jobs?]] |
| 589 | * QuirkyMinibossSquad: For Jenny. They're a group of villains who constantly show up to cause trouble in Tremorton, only for Jenny to beat them with ease most of the time. |
| 590 | * SlaveToPR: [[spoiler:They value their double lives as tough criminals ''and'' school teachers. They end up ruining the latter, and get blackmailed by Tuck and Jenny over the former.]] |
| 591 | * SleevesAreForWimps: A bunch of tough bikers, none of whom wear sleeves. |
| 592 | * ThrowTheDogABone: Despite all the abuse Lenny takes, [[spoiler:he is the only one of the gang who gets to keep his job as a school janitor once the Space Bikers' secret gets exposed]]. |
| 593 | * VillainessesWantHeroes: Tammy has a crush on Brad, Jenny's bestfriend/sidekick and in one episode, actually tried to marry him against his will. Brad briefly considered it, until he found out he'd be miserable and called off the marriage. |

| 606 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: Initially presents himself as a kindly old man to Brad, but quickly drops the act once he realizes he can use him as bait to trap XJ-9. |

| 609 | * EatenAlive: Gets devoured by Dr. Wakeman's garbage disposal machine in "Turncoats". |
| 610 | * EvilIsHammy: He enjoys gloating this way. |
| 611 | * EvilCounterpart: Like Nora Wakeman he's a MadScientist with a robot teenage daughter. Unlike Nora, he's doesn't treat his daughter with respect and is evil. |
| 612 | * EvilOldFolks: He's pretty old, possibly around Nora's age, and is anything but nice. |
| 613 | * GreenEyedMonster: The reason he's angry with Nora is because his inventions were less popular. |
| 614 | * KnightOfCerebus: He ultimately succeeds in his debut episode and he came rather close to killing both Jenny and her mother in the show's final episode. |
| 615 | * MadScientist: He's an inventor with questionable sanity and morals, though he insists he isn't. |
| 616 | * NonStandardCharacterDesign: Looks more like a ''[[WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow Ren & Stimpy]]'' character. |
| 617 | * PragmaticVillainy: He refuses to tell Brad his evil plan. However, later he seems to forget this and thinks he did, prompting him to try to kill Brad, which he failed. |

| 628 | ---- |
| 629 | * AchillesHeel: Being comprised of electricity makes him extremely vulnerable to water, which shorts him out. |
| 630 | * CurbStompBattle: Because he's living kryptonite for electronics, he easily defeats Jenny in "Mind Over Matter" multiple times, to the point she enlists help from her mother and friends to defeat him. |
| 631 | * EvilIsBigger: His size increases as he absorbs more energy. |
| 632 | * EvilIsHammy: His voice and personality are reminiscent of Dracula. |
| 633 | * KnightOfCerebus: He's quirky, but Gigawatt's very nature is to drain power, which is lethal to an electronic like Jenny. His powers make him a walking EMP capable of inducing blackouts to entire cities with his mere presence. |
| 634 | * VillainOfTheWeek: He shows up for one episode and is defeated by the end of it, never to turn up again in the series. |
| 635 | * OurVampiresAreDifferent: He's an energy vampire, in that he feeds on power rather than blood. |

| 643 | A synthetic skin made to allow Jenny to pass off as a human being, until it gains sentience. |
| 644 | ---- |
| 645 | * AllegoricalCharacter: The suit represent [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor the dark side of Jenny's goals]] [[IJustWantToBeNormal for social assimilation]]: LossOfIdentity, [[IndividualityIsIllegal stifling conformity]], and [[PopularIsEvil heinous apathy to the people she's climbed past on the social ladder]]. |
| 646 | * ClingyCostume: Clingy ''skin''. Upon gaining sentience, the skin wouldn't allow Jenny to simply remove it, even forcing itself back on in her sleep. |
| 647 | * DeathOfPersonality: If it had its way, Jenny would still be the same beneath the skin, but unrecognizable in behavior. |
| 648 | * {{Expy}}: It's a sentient suit that eventually grows a mind of its own and doesn't like being separated from its host. Now, are we talking about the skin or Marvel's ComicBook/{{Venom}}? |
| 649 | * FemaleMisogynist: The suit is not exactly female in a biological sense, but it has a woman's voice, combines with Jenny to look like a young woman, and has a ''very'' regressive idea of femininity. |
| 650 | * InstantAIJustAddWater: Dr. Wakeman only mentions it being designed to let Jenny fit in physically. Instead, it develops its own, extremely manipulative personality that tries to redefine her entirely life. |
| 651 | * ObsessivelyNormal: The exo-suit only allows Jenny to act like "a normal girl", [[BystanderSyndrome even if it means ignoring people who need her help]]. |
| 652 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: When it tries to help Jenny be a “normal” teenage girl, it refuses to let her save the day from villains, because [[MenActWomenAre normal girls don’t save boys.]] |
| 653 | * RoyalWe: It uses this when attached to a host. |
| 654 | * VanityIsFeminine: The "normal girl" the suit tries to turn Jenny into is stuck-up, haughty, vain, and gets the guys around her to do everything for her. |
| 655 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Was last seen latching on Mr. Mezmer in "The Return of the Raggedy Android" and was never seen or heard of again. And since that episode occured early in the first season, the fact the show was cancelled doesn't fully explain its absence. |

| 675 | [[caption-width-right:350:Brit (right) and Tiff (left).]] |
| 676 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/CreeSummer (Tiff), Moira Quirk (Brit) |
| 677 | |
| 678 | The antagonists of Jenny's life in high school, they seek to humiliate her at every turn. |
| 679 | ---- |
| 680 | * AlphaBitch: They torment Jenny simply because a super-powered robot [[AttentionWhore would otherwise be more popular than them]]. |
| 681 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: It's not stated what Brit's ethnic background is, but she has dark skin and a British accent. Given that her cousin Tiff speaks in African-American vernacular English, she can either be a African-American anglophilic girl or that she's an Afro-British foreign exchange student. Alternately, she's still a British exchange student, but of ''Indian'' descent (which would not be unusual given the history of the British Raj). |
| 682 | * AttentionWhore: There was a whole episode that revolved around these two setting Jenny up to be splashed in oil because Jenny was getting more attention than them in her new design. |
| 683 | * BareMidriffsAreFeminine: Tiff normally wears midriff-baring clothes to emphasize her AlphaBitch nature, and she's the girlier of the duo. Brit is a lot more boyish in her choices of clothing, but some of her fashions in "Victim of Fashion" are midriff-baring as well. |
| 684 | * {{Bifauxnen}}: As demonstrated in the picture above, Brit has a somewhat androgynous figure and sometimes wear male clothing, but is always fashionable regardless. |
| 685 | * BritishStuffiness: Brit has [[IAmVeryBritish the accent]] and the attitude of a stuffy Brit, though one wonders if she's actually British [[{{Fauxreigner}} or not]]. |
| 686 | * BritishTeeth: Downplayed by Brit, who simply has slightly goofy-looking buck teeth. One GrossupCloseup implies they're much worse than they look from a distance, though more crooked than dirty. |
| 687 | * BullyingADragon: Jenny is sweet, gentle, and kind. She wants to fit in with her peers, and is a generally good person. Brit and Tiff, however, don't ever seem to grasp that she's also a walking, talking, sapient weapons system capable of destroying entire space fleets on her own. However, it's [[JustifiedTrope justified]] since if Jenny retaliates, she'll most likely get in more trouble than Brit and Tiff will. Unlike Jenny, Misty does not care and would torment and hurt Brit and Tiff. |
| 688 | * TheDividual: Syndividual; they look very different and have some [[RedOniBlueOni contrasting personality traits]], but are almost always together and acting in unison. |
| 689 | * DrivenByEnvy: Some of their schemes against Jenny are due to this. An infamous example is in the episode when they set Jenny up for her outfit to be destroyed by oil since she was getting more attention than them. |
| 690 | * EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Tiff, which contrasts with her PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy-style speech. |
| 691 | * EnemyMine: They can't stand Jenny, but are willing to ask for her help if their popularity is in danger. In "Queen Bee", they work with Vexus who was disgused as a teen. However, they reveal this to Jenny when Vexus turns on them in the height of her popularity. |
| 692 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Brit and Tiff do seem to genuinely care about each other as cousins. |
| 693 | * FatAndSkinny: Tiff and Brit, respectively. Tiff is more curvy than fat, but she still greatly contrasts [[NoodlePeople Brit]] physically. |
| 694 | * TheFashionista: Both of them have impeccable dress sense, and are always seen wearing a new trendy outfit whenever they appear. |
| 695 | * FutureLoser: In "The Price of Love" shows that the Crust Cousins will become this, with Brit wishing she had married Sheldon, who’s now a successful billionaire. |
| 696 | * GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Brit possesses the standard [[AlphaBitch haughty queen bee]] personality and most of her outfits are very feminine, but occasionally dresses in an [[{{Bifauxnen}} androgynous]] style. |
| 697 | * HeelFaceDoorSlam: In their first appearance, Brit and Tiff actually defended Jenny when the police were planning on bringing her downtown after the science lab caught on fire (which they caused), as thanks for saving their lives. They actually wanted Jenny to start hanging out with them, until Brit shook Jenny's hand too hard and dislodged the hair pin Tiff shot into it. As the two were being led away by the police, they blamed Jenny for it. |
| 698 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: More than one of their schemes have terribly backfired. |
| 699 | * {{Jerkass}}: Both of them are quick to hold grudges, as shown by their grudge towards Jenny caused by something that was [[NeverMyFault completely their fault]]. They are also rude in general most of the time. |
| 700 | * LaserGuidedKarma: They act like jerks in every episode they appear in, but they usually get punished for it in the end. |
| 701 | * LeanAndMean: Brit is both tall and incredibly skinny. She is also generally portrayed as the leader of the two. In comparison, Tiff is noticeably short and curvy. |
| 702 | * MeaningfulName: Brit speaks with a British accent, and a "tiff" is a kind of petty squabble, which the two frequently instigate. |
| 703 | * NeverMyFault: In their debut episode, Tiff uses one of her hairpins to override Jenny's lasers to make her look bad, which only ended up setting the whole school on fire. While they were genuinely grateful that Jenny saved their lives, Brit ends up shaking Jenny's arm so hard, she dislodged Tiff's hairpin, which gets the cousins arrested when the vice principal realizes the Crust Cousins caused the fire. Instead of taking responsibility for their actions and befriending Jenny, the cousins end up blaming the robot for "ratting them out", which wasn't actually true. All Jenny did was find the cause of her burner overloading, not knowing said cause was Tiff's hairpin. |
| 704 | * NoodlePeople: Brit is very tall and skinny, which stands out opposite the short and curvy Tiff. |
| 705 | * PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: An unusual ambiguous example: Tiff is very pale-skinned, but speaks almost exclusively in African-American lingo, opposite Brit, who speaks with a refined British accent. However, their relation implies (and the show's creator confirm) at least some of Tiff's family are black, muddying whether her speech is natural or affected. |
| 706 | * RedOniBlueOni: Brit is more soft-spoken, cold and manipulative while Tiff is more loud, brash and aggressive. |
| 707 | * TheQuisling: Sided with the Cluster after they invaded Earth in "Escape from Cluster Prime", advising who and where to find people to enslave. Once it looks like the Cluster are losing, [[IFightForTheStrongestSide they switch back just as quickly]]. |
| 708 | * {{Spoiled Brat}}s: They're filthy rich, attention-seeking, have the crowd wrapped around their fingers, picking on poor Jenny and overall getting their way... most of the time. |
| 709 | * StereotypeFlip: The cousins are both mixed raced, but each has traits stereotypically associated with the side of the family she less resembles. Tiff is light-skinned, but speaks in Afro-American Venacular, has a rougher personality, and has more street-smarts (not to mention criminal connections). Brit is tan-skinned, but speaks and acts like an upper-class Brit. [[IronyAsSheIsCast This even extends to their casting]]: Tiff is voiced by Black American voice actress Cree Summer and Brit by English actress Moira Quirk. |
| 710 | * UnexplainedAccent: Brit speaks with an English accent, and incoporates the Union Jack into one of her outfits, despite no mention of being an immigrant or exchange student. Some viewers have interpreted this as [[ForeignCultureFetish an affectation for British culture]], though the show's creator have specified the Crust family are at least partially English, whatever Brit's specific upbringing is. |
| 711 | * UnlimitedWardrobe: They both wear new outfits in every episode they appear in. Sometimes, they wear multiple outfits in a single episode. No matter the case, they're never seen wearing the same thing twice. |
| 712 | * YourSizeMayVary: Tiff is either slighty taller than Jantrice or is smaller than Pteresa |

| 731 | * MeaningfulName: His name is a play on "prima donna", which means a person with high expectations and an inflated ego who gets angry when their expectations are not met. |
| 732 | * {{Narcissist}}: A vein, self-centered individual who doesn't give a crap about anybody but himself and his good looks. He even names himself "The Donster" for christ-sake. |
| 733 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Thinks he's a ladies man, but in reality, he is a complete self-centered douchebag who frequently rejects all of the girls he briefly dates. |

| 793 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Purple hair and purple eyes. |
| 794 | * DestructiveSaviour: She doesn't care about any collateral damage she causes as long as she gets paid or has fun. She tries to use [[BusFullOfInnocents a schoolbus full of children]] to crush a monster. |
| 795 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: In her debut appearance, her pupils were much smaller and her skin was pale white instead of lavender. |
| 796 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Even when she becomes a selfish mercenary, Misty still considered Jenny her friend and was willing to help her out without expecting anything in return. When Jenny realizes how dangerous she is and they fight, Misty wins but can't bring herself to kill Jenny, [[IWasJustPassingThrough claiming it was because no one was paying her for it]]. |
| 797 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: She was absolutely confused by Jenny's remorse for [[SympathyForTheDevil scaring the Crust Cousins to tears]]. |
| 798 | * EvilCounterpart: She ultimately ends up as one to Jenny: they're both superheroes that consider themselves outcasts, but Jenny's friends and family motivate her to [[ComesGreatResponsibility user her strength for good]] while Misty's detachment from almost everyone else leads her to abusing her power for personal gain and satisfaction. |
| 799 | * EvilFormerFriend: She was pretty much Jenny's best female friend. But Misty got more ruthless to the point she only thought of helping people if she could benefit from it. All to the point where Misty nearly kills Jenny in a fight where Jenny [[CurbStompBattle was clearly outmatched]] [[WorfHadTheFlu (due to a couple of factors)]]. The only thing that stopped Misty and snapped her somewhat back was Jenny [[TearJerker still pleading that she still saw her as a friend]]. |
| 800 | * {{Expy}}: Since Team Teen is an homage to ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', she eerily resembles Raven. |
| 801 | * HumanAliens: She's an alien, but pretty much looks like a human minus her pale lavender skin tone. |
| 802 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: During her first appearance, she was genuinely heroic and saved people without expecting payment despite her SmugSuper tendencies. Later appearances made her more [[TookALevelInJerkass arrogant and self-centered]], however. |
| 803 | * MeaningfulName: Misty can [[SuperSmoke turn into mist]]. |
| 804 | * OnlyInItForTheMoney: By "Mist Opportunities", she attempts to charge money for her services and is callously unashamed in leaving people to their fate if there's no money in saving them. After giving a brutal beating to Jenny at the end of the episode, she even claims that the only reason she's sparing Jenny is because no one is paying her to finish her off. |
| 805 | * ParentalAbandonment: Her and the rest of the Teen Team are apparently all orphans. She tries to justify charging for her services to Jenny by contemptuously pointing out [[FreudianExcuse she doesn't have any parents to provide for her.]] |
| 806 | * PerkyGoth: She has a gothic appearance and an upbeat, care-free demeanor. |
| 807 | * PunchClockHero: In "Mist Opportunities", she's decided to help people on a pay-only basis, and left Tremorton to be destroyed by a monster when they wouldn't pay her for what she'd already done. |
| 808 | * SuddenSequelHeelSyndrome: When Misty was part of Team Teen, she did superheroics without any expected reward, albeit [[NotInThisForYourRevolution seemingly because it was fun]] and [[SmugSuper with a condescending attitude toward "normies"]]. After coming back to Earth and enrolling at Tremorton High, she shows she can be a rather vindictive bully. After she's expelled, then moves back to Tremorton, Misty is basically just a [[OnlyInItForTheMoney money-grubbing]] mercenary who'll endanger civilians to get her job done faster. |
| 809 | * SuperpowerLottery: Let's see: she's a skilled [[SupernaturalMartialArts martial artist]], has SuperStrength, can [[{{Flight}} fly]], turn into [[SuperSmoke mist]], and [[{{Telepathy}} read peoples' minds]]. |
| 810 | * SuperSmoke: Her most often used superpower is her ability to turn into a cloud of purple mist at will (hence her name). |
| 811 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Misty plays the tomboy to Jenny's girly girl, being a rough {{Bifauxnen}} to Jenny's girly {{fembot}}. |
| 812 | * TookALevelInJerkass: In "Teenage Mutant Ninja Troubles" and "Mist Opportunities", she becomes more callous, self-centered, and materialistic in contrast to her debut appearance. |

| 818 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SandyFox |
| 819 | |
| 820 | The gentle daughter of a MadScientist named Dr. Locus. She has a crush on Brad. |
| 821 | ---- |
| 822 | * BerserkButton: She does NOT like being called "weird". This makes her lose her friendliness and get into a massive fight with Jenny when she presses it. |
| 823 | * TheBigDamnKiss: Gives this to Brad to ease him up about her being a robot. It works. |
| 824 | * CreepyBlueEyes: To add to the creepiness, her ''pupils'' are blue while her iris is black. |
| 825 | * EffectiveKnockoff: [[spoiler:She's essentially an improved version of Jenny. She's got a flawless exoskin, can self-repair and managed to outdo her in a fight.]] |
| 826 | * GlassCannon: She's powerful enough to put Jenny on the ropes but has no apparent armor plating, only her exoskin. Downplayed in that, while Jenny can easily tear her to pieces, she can just as easily pull those pieces together, which is half the advantage she has to win. |
| 827 | * GoodAllAlong: Jenny believes her to be evil [[spoiler:due to being a creation of Dr. Locus]]. Turns out she ran away from her father and just wants to make friends and fit in as a teenager, like Jenny. |
| 828 | * GoodThingYouCanHeal: She is less durable than Jenny but makes up for it by fixing herself instantly. |
| 829 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She has blonde hair to match her sunny personality. |
| 830 | * IJustWantToBeNormal: States this during her fight with Jenny. Sadly she leaves crying when she feels she can never be normal once everyone's seen her mechanical endoskeleton. |
| 831 | * MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter: As the daughter of the wicked Dr. Locus. |
| 832 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: Completely unintentionally either her weight or strength destroys everything around her, which is the main flaw in her guise as a normal human girl. Brad is too smitten on their date to notice however. |
| 833 | * PullingThemselvesTogether: when Jenny manages to rip her to pieces, she just magnetically recovers those pieces and repairs herself. |
| 834 | * ThePresentsWereNeverFromSanta: Brad appears to unassistedly carry Jenny (a 600-pound robot) and rescue her from Dr. Locus' lair. It's revealed that Melody was secretly helping him that time. |
| 835 | * RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Especially when compared to Jenny. She has skin and facial features that are indistinguishable from a human. |
| 836 | * TheRival: To Jenny. |
| 837 | * RoboticReveal: Jenny forces this on her during her date with Brad. He doesn't seem to mind. |
| 838 | * RobotGirl: [[spoiler: As revealed at the end of her first appearance, but Brad only learns about it in her next one.]] |
| 839 | * ShadowArchetype: Her and Jenny are both RidiculouslyHumanRobots, just wants to be seen as a normal person, and both have a MadScientist for a “parent”. Heck, they probably would be friends if Jenny didn’t think she was evil. |
| 840 | * TownGirls: Her femme to Jenny's neither and Misty's butch. |
| 841 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: She was last seen flying away from Tremorton at the end of ''No Harmony With Melody'' and was never seen again due to the show's cancellation. |

| 848 | |
| 849 | A scientist who is the rival of Nora Wakeman, and creator of YK-9 (AKA Kenny). |
| 850 | ---- |
| 851 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He has a light green skin complexion. |
| 852 | * BeardOfEvil: Downplayed; he's not evil, but Mogg can be bit of a jerk. |
| 853 | * GoodParents: While he might be a complete jerk, he's at least a well-meaning and caring father towards his creation and "son" Kenny. |
| 854 | * GreenAndMean: He's has a greenish-skin tone and is a jerk, especially towards his rival Nora. |
| 855 | * LoveObstructingParents: Drags his ''son'' Kenny away from his date with Jenny, since he doesn't approve his son being in a relationship with his rival's creation. Although at this point, Jenny was only dating Kenny for popularity, not because she loved him. |
| 856 | * MadScientist: Like his rival Nora. |
| 857 | * PetTheDog: In "Agent 00' Sheldon" he genuinely seems concerned that his "son" Kenny is missing. |
| 858 | * PunnyName: His name is likely a play on Phileas Fogg, the protagonist of ''Literature/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays''. |
| 859 | * ShoddyKnockoffProduct: Most of his inventions are copies of Nora's, including his "son" YK-9/Kenny. |
| 860 | * SitcomArchNemesis: His relationship to Nora. |

| 866 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor |
| 867 | |
| 868 | Phineas Mogg's son who's a male knockoff of Jenny. They briefly dated, but she was no longer interested once she realized he was part-dog. |
| 869 | ---- |
| 870 | * AmicableExes: Though they never broke up on screen, it's safe to say he's no longer in a relationship with Jenny when she learned about the fact that he's is part-dog. Despite this, the next time they meet they appear to be on good terms. |
| 871 | * AnimalJingoism: Given that he's half-dog, he immediately chases Sheldon once he dresses up as a cat. |
| 872 | * DatingWhatDaddyHates: Continues to date Jenny even though both their parents disprove of it. |
| 873 | * MundaneUtility: He's able to use his robot body to cook pizzas. It gets him really popular with the other kids. |
| 874 | * MyInstinctsAreShowing: He displays dog like behavior, such as licking, barking, and chasing cats. |
| 875 | * NiceGuy: He's rather chill and treats Jenny kindly. |
| 876 | * PunnyName: The K-9 part of his name reveals his true nature, while the "Y" references the Y chromosome seeing as he's a SpearCounterpart of Jenny. |
| 877 | * RobotHair: It appears to be a normal haircut, but it can look like dog ears. |
| 878 | * SpearCounterpart: He was created to be a male version of Jenny. Who's also part-dog. |
| 879 | * SuperSenses: Being part-dog he has enhanced hearing and smell. |
| 880 | * TopHeavyGuy: Like Smytus, he's a very large robot with stubby legs. |

| 885 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wisteria.png]] |
| 886 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Candi Milo |
| 887 | |
| 888 | Dr. Nora Wakeman's sister who is a flower child and focuses on the natural world and biological in contrast with her mechanical-based genius sister. |
| 889 | ---- |
| 890 | * BigLittleSister: Maybe. It's not known whether Wisteria is the older or younger one. However, she is definitely taller than Nora is and Wisteria retained her hair color while Nora's is white. On the other hand, in the family album, a teenage Wisteria is shown right after a picture of seeing Nora in second grade. |
| 891 | * EarthyBarefootCharacter: She's very into nature and biology, and being both that and a hippie, doesn't wear shoes. |
| 892 | * GagNose: Downplayed, as while it's long, it's way shorter that her sister's. |
| 893 | * GranolaGirl: One of the things that set her apart from her sister, Nora. |
| 894 | * GreenThumb: She did end up creating Glenn Wakeman, a swamp monster-like entity who can manipulate plants. She also snapped her finger to cause a plant to grow as she stepped off her wagon. |
| 895 | * HartmanHips: In one of her pictures of her young adult years, she had a generous pair of these. |
| 896 | * HereWeGoAgain: Despite having patched things up in their episode and gained an appreciation of family, they start bickering at the end of the episode, to the great annoyance of Jenny and Glenn. |
| 897 | * MaidenAunt: She's this to her niece Jenny despite Nora also being single. Interestingly enough, when Jenny contacted her, Wisteria initially assumed Jenny was a normal human girl. |
| 898 | * MirrorCharacter: Despite their vastly different lifestyles and approaches, Wisteria and Nora share alot in common. They're both very talented women who are quite stubborn in their ways and while they're both single (though Nora has at least been shown dating once), this did not stop from creating a child of their own, doing so through their expertise in their fields (robotics for Nora and the natural world for Wisteria.) |
| 899 | * TrulySingleParent: Much like her sister, she created her own child, who, much like Jenny, is not human. |

| 905 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Jeff Doucette |
| 906 | |
| 907 | A strange little swamp-monster like guy, he was created by Wisteria Wakeman and she treats him like her son. As such, this makes him Nora's nephew and Jenny's cousin. |
| 908 | ---- |
| 909 | * {{Acrofatic}}: He's plump but can put up a fight if he chooses to. |
| 910 | * BlackBeadEyes: Like with anyone who doesn't have [[PieEyed pie-eyes]], he has these instead. |
| 911 | * CombatTentacles: He uses vines as these when he fought against Jenny in his sole appearance. |
| 912 | * GreenThumb: During his (fake) fight with Jenny, he is able to shapeshift his various limbs and parts of himself into different plants like vines and cacti. |
| 913 | * MirrorCharacter: He's one to Jenny, much like his how mother is one towards her sister. He and Jenny are both artificial lifeforms that are the exact opposite of eachother both in appearance and nature, as Jenny is a tall, thin, relatively human-looking robot, while Glenn is a plump little fellow who looks like a friendly nature spirit. They're also both a product of extremely advanced programming and technological engineering and biological engineering respectively. |
| 914 | * NiceGuy: He is a very sweet and cheerful fellow much like his cousin Jenny and they get along much better than their mothers do. |
| 915 | * PlantPerson: A big contrast with his metallic robot cousin, Jenny. |
| 916 | * SimpletonVoice: Speaks this way, likely to contrast with the high-tech Jenny. |
