* PokemonSpeak: "Timmy!" is (usually) the only word he can say somewhat intelligently. Bizarrely, ''both'' of his parents are also like this ("RICHARD!" "HELEN!"). Sometimes he's able to speak other names [[DependingOnTheWriter depending on the episode]]; for example, "Gobbles!" in "Hellen Keller! The Musical" when he adopts a turkey named Gobbles. He can also say his friend's name, "Jimmy!", since it's just "Timmy!" with the first letter replaced. "Fourth Grade" also has Timmy cry "Please help me!" when his modified wheelchair gets unstable and could explode if the chair went too slow or if he got off it. He also manages to rattle off "And the Lords of the Underworld!" in "Timmy 2000".
** This is subverted for the most part in ''VideoGame/SouthParkTheFracturedButWhole'', where Timmy's superhero persona "Doctor Timothy" is an extremely powerful psychic who is able to speak telepathically in complete and fluent sentences. He can still only say his name when talking without using his powers, though.

* BlackBestFriend: {{Downplayed}} in "The Big Fix". Randy tries to invoke this by coercing Stan into befriending him in order to make the family more diverse [[ItsAllAboutMe for marketing purposes]], leading to [[InnocentlyInsensitive Stan coming across as patronizing]]. Eventually, they ''do'' become close friends (but not the best), though for reasons completely outside of their race.



* BrutalHonesty: Though he will tell the occasional lie when it suits, Craig loves to tell harsh truths in the most blunt and unfiltered way possible, a skill which he puts to an excellent use when dealing with the boys.

* ChickMagnet: {{Implied|Trope}} or {{Downplayed|Trope}}. In "The List", the fake list has him voted #12, but various users on South Park Archives discovered some pieces of the puzzle; Bebe said that "To move Clyde meant that Craig had to be moved to number twelve, which moved Jimmy down and moved Jason up!", meaning at this point they either had to switch Craig from position number 1 to 12 so Clyde could take the number 1 spot, or were planning on putting Craig at 1 vis-a-vis Clyde and Jason at 12 and 13 or 11 respectively so they could make room for the real ugliest boy (shown in a deleted scene to be Cartman) and do a freebie for Craig. Either way, Craig is at least held in high regard by the girls.

Either way, Craig is at least held in high regard by the girls. He only becomes more popular after the Asian girls start making Yaoi of him and Tweek, a couple every single girl at school actively ships, which is why Craig loses most of the attraction he had from the opposite gender when he stages a breakup between the two.
-->'''Craig:''' Now everyone thinks I'm a manipulative cheater! I'll never get any chicks!



* TheFatalist: After deliberately going out of his way to prove other people's divinations about him wrong, [[YouCantFightFate only to fail each time]], he eventually resigns to his status as a CosmicPlaything.
** He expresses his feelings of helplessness in his journal at the end of "Pandemic 2: The Startling" (though that doesn't stop him from staying out of another misadventure with the boys).
--->'''Craig:''' I realized that we don't always have control over what happens to us. We are but players on the stage of life. And I also learned to never listen when people come asking you for money.
** This is proven further in "Tweek X Craig" when his own father tells him to stop fighting his homosexuality, as the Japanese girls chose him and continuing to resist will just make him unhappy for the rest of his life. He listens to his advice and promptly gets together with Tweek.
--->'''Thomas:''' Son, you need to listen to me. You can't fight being gay. I used to think being gay was a choice, but... you don't get to decide. Japan picks who they pick and that's that.



* YouCantFightFate:
** In "Pandemic 2: The Startling", he tries to prove that you ''can'' just walk away, but it's trying to do that leads to him defeating the [[ItMakesSenseInContext Guinea Pirate]]. It's almost a BrokenAesop in its implementation.

Added DiffLines:

* BerserkButton: Comparing people who were crippled later in their lives with people who were crippled from birth really pisses him off, and just mentioning Christopher Reeve is enough to put him in a mood for a while. He gets over it after witnessing the conflict between the crips and the bloods first-hand.


Added DiffLines:

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: He's almost as prone to this as Butters, but contrary to what one may think, it's mostly owing to his naivety and poor judge of character than any mental disorder.
-->'''Jimmy:''' ''[while approaching the bloods with Timmy]'' Look, Timmy. There's a convenience store. That must be what the fellas meant by "pop some punk-ass Bloods." They want us to get them some soda pop and treats. Let's buy them ginger ale and marshmallows. Then they'll let us in the club for sure.


Added DiffLines:

* FantasticRacism: He has a low opinion of people who became crippled later in life like Christopher Reeve, and forms an affinity group with Timmy just to point out the superiority of natural born-cripples.


Added DiffLines:

* GrewASpine: He spends most of the plot of "Fishsticks" being gaslit by Cartman into believing that they came up with the titular joke together (when in actuality it was all Jimmy). After seeing the sheer hypocrisy of Cartman calling Carlos Mencia out for stealing their joke, he gives him a brutal takedown once they're alone. It doesn't last, and Cartman manages to successfully gaslight him again after being threatened by Kanye West, but still significant.


Added DiffLines:

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: He gives a scathing one to Cartman in "Fishsticks", crossing with ArmorPiercingQuestion.
-->'''Jimmy: Eric, there's something I really need to know. How do you live with yourself? You know you had nothing to do with the fishsticks joke. But you just keep pretending. How do you look at yourself in the f-f-fucking mirror?! That's what I want to know! How do you take credit for something you didn't do?!


Added DiffLines:

* CorruptTheCutie: He completely falls for [=QAnon=]'s conspiracy theories and Cartman's influence, and unlike the other kids, it only becomes worse as an adult.
* TheCorruptible: Though he doesn't like people telling him what to do, he's very easily influenced. When he proves himself unwilling to accept Janice as his stepmother, she resorts to paying influencers to reach out to him via them.


Added DiffLines:

* HatesTheirParent: He's flipped off both his dead mother ''and'' his stepmother on two different occasions, the latter only after actually acknowledging her as his mom.
-->'''Clyde:''' Janice, can I call you mom?\\
'''Janice:''' Of course, Clyde!\\
'''Clyde:''' Fuck you, mom!


Added DiffLines:

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: In the later seasons, he's very bratty and cares a little too much about the image he projects, partly due to being influenced by Logan [=LeDouche=], but he still tries to give Stan earnest advice, and looks to find the source of the ''Cred'' fad so as to help stop the fighting among his classmates (and because his parents don't let him have any).
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: In "Post-Covid", while he still TookALevelInJerkass, he worked with the others to uncover Kenny's secret and finish his plan to stop the [=McCormickron=] COVID variant, and he was shown to be surprisingly helpful at times (even if he keeps making things worse for the group due to his vaccine hesitancy). After the group tries to trick him into getting vaccinated, he switches sides and shows just how despicable he's become by agreeing to Cartman's plan to kill Kyle when the latter strokes his ego.
-->'''Clyde:''' This doesn't make any sense. Why do I have to be the one to go back in time and kill Kyle?\\
'''Cartman:''' It's because I admire you, Clyde. As an anti-vaxxer, you understand that you have to strong and stand by your beliefs even if it means others will die.\\
''''Clyde:''' Hey, thanks.


Added DiffLines:

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: In "Post-Covid: Return of Covid", he believes that vaccines cause you to grow titties on your head, as he was once told so by an expert. As it turns out, said "expert" was ''himself'' when he travelled back in time to kill Kyle as per Cartman's plan. Later in the episode, he internalizes Cartman's preaching and refuses to back down on the mission to kill Kyle even after Cartman himself changes his mind.
-->'''Clyde:''' Enough of this crap! I'm sticking to my beliefs, and this kid dies ''now''!


Added DiffLines:

* TookALevelInDumbass: He was no Einstein before, but his future self's influence, made worse by joining [=QAnon=] just after, causes him to become a complete moron as an adult.

* TheCasanova: Though he's usually [[CasanovaWannabe not as successful as he would like]], he's managed to score with Bebe and Red (who are hinted to be quite popular among the girls) and also dated Lisa Berger when she was the most popular girl in class. In "Deep Learning", almost all girls are swooned by his [[PlayingCyrano AI-generated romantic messages]], even [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak Nelly and Betsy]].



* ADayInTheLimelight: "Lice Capades" and "Reverse Cowgirl".

to:

* ADayInTheLimelight: He's the main character of "Lice Capades" and Capades", "Reverse Cowgirl".Cowgirl", and "Not Suitable for Children", and he has a major role in "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime", "The List", "Fatbeard", and the "Post-Covid" specials.



* TookALevelInBadass: Despite being a wimpy kid who is easily pushed around in some episodes, in both ''South Park: The Stick of Truth'' and "Return of Covid", he becomes TheHeavy who is even more dangerous than Cartman, which he tries to cement with [[TerminatorImpersonator an impersonation of The Terminator]] in the latter.



* TookALevelInBadass: He was far more passive and demure in early seasons, even internalizing the other kids' teasing in "Here Comes The Neighborhood". After "Christian Rock Hard", it's certain that nobody is calling him a "pussy" anymore, and some kids are even shown to be intimidated by him on occasion.



* DissonantSerenity: In "South Park: The Stick of Truth", he tries to deliver his quest to the new kid in old English, proper of an Elven Warrior, while asking them to "fuck the shit out of (the humans') banners".
* DungFu: His ability in ''South Park: Phone Destroyer'' involves him flinging nuggets of dog poo at his enemies, which he has stored in his pockets for some reason.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: A kid heavily resembling him can be occasionally seen in the special ed bus and in the asylum. Once the Special Ed kids are properly introduced in "Up the Down Steroid" and "Crippled Summer", said kid vanished, with no further mention of [=DogPoo=] being mentally challenged in any way (though he might have fecalphelia).
* FriendlessBackground: Though he seemed to have no problem being part of social circles in the show, ''South Park: The Fractured But Whole'' implies this, as he's shown to be quite clingy with the new kid, and quickly proclaims that their selfie makes them friends forever before they can retract.



* VocalDissonance: The kid gets a new voice every single time he has a speaking role, which is mostly consisted of one-liners spread throughout the many episodes he's in. He sounds like Butters in "Probably", then Clyde in "The Wacky Molestation Adventure" (both in Season 4), then adopts a more mature-sounding voice in "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society". His voice then changes to that of a regular dork's in "Butters' Bottom Bitch". After that he adopts Kyle Schwartz's voice for his minor role in ''South Park: The Stick of Truth'' and then a kindergartener's for his few lines in ''South Park: The Fractured But Whole''.

to:

* NiceGuy: Anxiety problems notwithstanding, he does usually mean well.well, and really does appreciate those who support him through his emotions. When chosen as the replacement ReplacementGoldfish for Kenny in Season 6, he's quite loyal to the boys (save for Cartman) in spite of how badly they treat him, and balances it with a surprisingly solid moral core, to the point where Cartman and Kyle prefer him over each other (which to be fair isn't too hard).



* OutOfFocus: He has not had a major role since "Put It Down" from Season 21.

to:

* OutOfFocus: He Video games aside, he has not had a major role since "Put It Down" from Season 21.21. Even before that, he came close to LivingProp status from Season 6 to Season 19. However, he seems to have regained his supporting status as of the "Post-Covid" specials, as he had a supporting role in "Not Suitable for Children".



* ThoseTwoGuys: With Craig ever since their hookup.

to:

* ThoseTwoGuys: With Craig ever since ThoseTwoGuys:
** After Kenny came back and Tweek lost his major character status, he started being regularly seen with Jason, either sitting together in the cafeteria or as part of Craig's gang in "South Park is Gay".
** Since
their hookup.hookup in "Tweek X Craig", Tweek majorly became a SatelliteLoveInterest to Craig, and was rarely seen without him. Of course, with "Put It Down" portraying the latter as a LivingEmotionalCrutch to Tweek, it's hard to see why.

* UncertainDoom: Though his BadFuture self meets a gruesome end at Cartman's hands, there is no clue as of what became of Clyde after the future was revised. The explanation behind his absence can range from him simply not being invited to celebrate Christmas with the rest of the cast to having died of COVID prior to the event due to his refusal to get vaccinated. His appearance in Season 25 onwards shows that he ''did'' survive the pandemic, but his absence in the revised timeline makes him one of the very few supporting characters who isn't SavedByCanon.



* {{Blackface}}: {{Inverted}} and PlayedForLaughs. In "Free Willzyx", while all the kids sported this look as part of their camouflage, Tolkien's face was jarringly painted white instead, with nobody pointing this out. All things considered, it might lessen his chances of getting shot depending on whether the security guard was from South Park or not.



* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: A white version of him would occasionally appear in background shots in earlier seasons.

to:

* EarnYourHappyEnding: He was aways very ambitious and driven despite [[FatBastard certain]] [[BigotWithABadge people]] being out to get him for petty reasons, so it's only fitting that he ends up a renowned police detective in both timelines, showing that not only did Harrison Yates' goal to arrest or kill every rich black person in the town fail, but that now an African-American whom he had tried to kill at least once is now taking his place and is miles more competent than Yates ever was.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: A white version of him would occasionally appear in background shots in earlier seasons.seasons, though Tolkien can occasionally be seen in the same shot as said kid, so it might be intended as a different character who used his design. Regardless, unless you customize your New Kid in ''South Park: The Stick of Truth'' to sport Tolkien's hairstyle, there has been no recurring appearance of such a kid since TheMovie.



* NervesOfSteel: The guy somehow managed to sit through the entirety of ''Backdoor Sluts 9'' without losing his sanity like Butters did, and even managed to (barely) maintain his composure afterwards. Seems like Clyde did good in choosing him.



* NotSoStoic: He absolutely loses it when it turns out Cartman was right about him being able to play bass.

to:

* NotSoStoic: He absolutely loses it when it turns out Cartman was right about him being able to play bass. In later seasons, this happens more frequently as Cartman starts making him a target of his schemes almost to the level of Kyle and Wendy (who aren't exactly demure themselves).


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: He quits the "Dungeons and Dragons" game after watching ''Backdoor Sluts 9'', thinking it was actually a ''Lord of the Rings'' movie.


Added DiffLines:

* WiseBeyondTheirYears: A tad more subdued example than the leads, since he's still a kid at his very core, but he's still quite knowledgeable in politics and finances, and even produced his own TV Pilot "Here Comes Fatty Doo Doo" (which lost to "Honey Boo Boo" but still), edited and voiced by himself.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: During the early seasons, he was probably the second most violent kid in his class after [[VillainProtagonist Cartman]], as he was shown to lead any generic bullying that goes on in school. He was always shown going to the counselor due to his cynicism and disrespect towards the other characters, especially when flipping them off. This was almost entirely phased out starting around season 12, where his characterization was cemented as a DeadpanSnarker. In "Tweek x Craig", he undergoes massive CharacterDevelopment when [[MistakenForGay the false news of him and Tweek being gay with each other is spread around]]. He's still a deadpan kind of kid, but he's shown to be a whole lot more empathetic than his previous appearances have given him credit for. Later in "Put It Down" he goes even further, having become [[OfficialCouple/WesternAnimation Tweek's boyfriend]] ever since "Tweek x Craig" and spending the entire episode by Tweek's side, trying to help him deal with his panic attacks about North Korea and [[Characters/SouthParkHerbertGarrison President Garrison's]] tweets about them and Tweek.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: He feels this way in "Here Comes the Neighborhood" due to the other boys mocking him for his wealth, but it's eventually subverted as the boys explain to him that [[VitriolicBestBuds ripping on him is part of being their friend]], and that he would be different if they ''didn't'' make fun of him.


Added DiffLines:

* TheChewToy: Not to the extent of Kenny, but he's gotten his arm injured on three separate occasions, two of which inflicted by ''a direct gunshot wound''.


Added DiffLines:

* CursedWithAwesome: He's exceptionally gifted at playing bass, which he wouldn't be ashamed of if not for Cartman's claim that "all Blacks play bass", which Tolkien wanted to prove wrong.


Added DiffLines:

* TeachersPet: Though Mr. Garrison didn't seem to care about him much, he was this for Ms. Choksondik, who was always impressed with his high-quality presentations. He was also the only confirmed student who passed Mrs. Nelson's math test in "Death Kids", which is significant because Cartman flunked the test despite cheating off him.


Added DiffLines:

* TokenBlackFriend: He briefly becomes this for the boys in "Professor Chaos" as one of the candidates for Kenny's replacement. Though he makes it to the top five, he eventually loses to Tweek. Afterwards, he becomes this for Craig's gang.

* ScaryBlackMan: ZigZagged. Though Cartman loves to exaggerate how intimidating he actually is, sometimes it's not unwarranted, as Tolkien has been shown to be quite vicious with him when pushed to violence. Of course, this is a case of SelfFulfillingProphecy, as Cartman's racism causes him to overreact to anything Tolkien does, which pushes the latter to lash out at him, prompting Cartman to overreact once again. To a lesser extent, Stan has been shown to be a tad intimidated by him on occasion, though only after Cartman decides to throw in some questionable nuggets of wisdom at him.

However, he also falls victim to another series of stereotypes, such as being good at bass, basketball, and singing, finding Tyler Perry funny, forming a TokenMinorityCouple with Nichole, being unable to resist fist-bumps, and knowing how to talk in JiveTurkey to help Kyle troll the United Negro College Fund. This is often to his chagrin as he ''is'' aware of the connotations of these traits and [[StopBeingStereotypical actively tries to avoid them for this very reason]], though he will embrace them if he feels fulfilled. In the future, he seems to have embraced his FlawlessToken side at least, though he seems oblivious to the irony of being a police detective in light of his family's tumultuous relationship with [[BigotWithABadge another particular South Park detective]].

* FatalFlaw: His often passive and dismissive approach in regards to Cartman's racism has bitten the poor boy in the ass on occasion, such as in "Christian Rock Hard", where he joins his Christian Rock Band and endures all his racist remarks in the hopes that it will pay off in the end (which it initially did until Cartman ruined it at the last second, making it AllForNothing), or in "Dead Kids", where he lets him cheat off him after an episode worth of dealing with his InsaneTrollLogic. It almost gets him killed in "World War Zimmerman", where he elects to ignore Cartman's delusions that he's a threat to humanity, [[TooDumbToLive and even agrees to fist-bump him at the end while standing in "his ground"]], prompting Cartman to shoot him. He falls for him again even as an adult in "Post Covid: Return of Covid" (as do Wendy and Jimmy), trusting his HeelFaithTurn and telling him everything about the time travel mission, allowing him to sic Butters on him and steal all their equipment.

* FaceHeelTurn: Though he TookALevelInJerkass as an adult, he still had a semblance of investment on completing Kenny's mission to erase the events of the pandemic, but when his own group tries to trick him into unknowingly getting vaccinated, he turns against them and the moment Cartman approaches him with an invitation for his own anti-time travel foundation, he eagerly switches sides and becomes completely committed to Cartman's goals.


Added DiffLines:

* AngryBlackMan: {{Subverted}}. He's actually really easy-going. However, Cartman can't help but see him as this the few times he does raise his voice, which are rarely if ever unwarranted. In "World War Zimmerman", just him raising his voice is enough for Cartman to assume that he's snapped and now wants to kill him for being white.


Added DiffLines:

* FlawlessToken: He really doesn't want to be this, but being rich, smart, and kind-hearted, it's hard for anyone to find a flaw in him, to the point where the kids rip on him for being ''too rich'' since they cannot find anything legitimate to poke fun at him for (until they see how hurt he was by their ribbing, whereupon they proceed to mock him for being a pussy instead). As an "Post-Covid", he's mostly embraced this side of him, being a reliable and badass police detective who outshines almost everyone in the team.


Added DiffLines:

* GeniusBruiser: He's one of the smartest kids in class, and also one of the toughest fighters. In "Post-Covid" specials, he's an FBI detective who both does extensive research on Kenny's death and beats up two hostile ''Shady Acres'' nurses after tracking down Randy.


Added DiffLines:

* LovableJock: He's proficient in football, basketball, and baseball (which he plays with autographed bats), dates a cheerleader, was supposedly voted the second-cutest kid and his parents are rich. Nevertheless, he's a still a humble guy who never sees himself above anyone.


Added DiffLines:

* SpoiledSweet: He's the richest kid in town, but doesn't have an arrogant bone in his body, and is in fact quite insecure about how others perceive him for his wealth. In "Here Comes the Neighborhood", he sings a heartwarming song about wanting to be poor, since he feels that it will make him more accepted.

In "Sarcastaball", Cartman attests to Clyde's hugs being the warmest, likely a CallBack to the ending of the former episode where Clyde hugged him. As an adult, he's also the only one to merrily follow him to the end, as Butters had to be threatened into helping, and the other members of the Foundation Against Time Travel seemed mostly disinterested in the cause.

* FanOfTheUnderdog: Surprisingly, he's one of the few people who support Cartman in some of his plans, which likely stems from being forced to spend a day in his shoes during the latter's absence in "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime", so he knows it's on his best interests as the second fattest kid to keep him around as the designated FatIdiot.

As an adult, he's also the only one to merrily follow him to the end, as Butters had to be threatened into helping, and the other members of the Foundation Against Time Travel seemed mostly disinterested in the cause. \n-->'''Kyle:''' The girls do not have a device that shows them the future Cartman.

* ArchEnemy: He seemed to be this to Mr. Mackey in "Tweek Vs. Craig" since the latter was sick of him being sent to his office, and Craig was the only kid who could push his BerserkButton in the early seasons. Though they barely interacted after Craig stopped flipping people off, their animosity towards each other resurfaced in ''The Stick of Truth'', where Craig treats detention with Mackey as if it were akin to being restrained in a castle, and Mackey called upon his ginger hallway monitors to prevent his escape. When Craig and the others do escape, Mackey angrily screams "DAMN YOU, CRAIG!" while chasing him.

* AloofAlly: In "Pandemic", he works with the boys to get out of Peru, but spends most of his time belittling them for their constant inability to learn from their mistakes, which drives them insane. Being TheDragAlong throughout the two-parter, one can't blame him for not being too enthusiastic.
* AloofBigBrother: Generally doesn't give his sister Tricia much attention, and even flips her off on occasion (which is a recurring tick in their family). In ''The Fractured But Whole'', she says that he can be a dick to her at times, but [[ShipperOnDeck she still ships him and Tweek together]].

* TheBully: His original characterization. He originally stood out as being distinctly aggressive and a complete bully, leading his classmates into the beating of defenseless kids. In recent episodes, he is much more passive aggressive and stoic, not as attentive to bullying others as before (though still gets the odd laugh out of it).

** In Season 12's "Pandemic" the main 4 tricked him out of his birthday money, and he spent the entire episode being dragged around Peru because the government mistook him and the boys for an actual Peruvian Flute band.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Blink and you miss it, but in "Damien", he's swept away by Damien's hellish wind, but unlike the other kids who are also taken by the current, Craig keeps a flippant and stoic face throughout.
