Chuck Chicken is an animated series from Malaysia produced by Animasia Studios. The titular character, Chuck Adoodledoo, is a Kung Fu expert inheriting Golden Egg Securities, who uses the epic power of a golden egg he was granted by a Fire Phoenix in a volcano to turn into "Kung Fu Chicken," able to take on the powers of one of twelve animals. His friends, Flick Feathers, a dove, and Wing Span, a hornbill, help him to take on threats to keep Rocky Perch safe. They take on many villains, the most notable ones being Dr. Mingo, Dee the duck, and the vulture Sinister Emperor.
The original run started in 2010.
A sequel series, Chuck Chicken: Power Up appeared on YouTube. The golden egg hatched into a Little Phoenix in this series, so instead of transformations being granted by his golden egg he uses disks he slots into his new Nixogear to gain one of nine abilities from Little Phoenix. In addition, a "Paper Toy Series" was made that features the characters from the series.
This show provides examples of:
- Egg-Laying Male: The Golden Egg was laid by an old warrior who was able to take on aspects of rhinos and chetahs, so that he could make his abilities live on forever. However, it hatched into a Little Phoenix, losing the egg's power, though it still had some transformation abilities to give.
- Extendable Arms: Chuck can extend his arms pretty far with his Rubber Snake transformation.
- Professor Guinea Pig: Pen and Guin fool around in Dr. Mingo's laboratory by mixing and ingesting several chemicals just to see the effects they would have on them. Some results include sprouting an afro, sprouting spots on their armor, gaining muscles that become as limp as noodles later, and self-inflation. Needless to say, Dr. Mingo isn't impressed.
- Rhino Rampage: Chuck takes on aspects of this with his Rhino Strength transformation.
- Shockingly Expensive Bill: In the first episode, Chuck takes a job to stop a volcano from erupting for a $1,000 reward. Not only does the mayor not pay him for unwittingly filling the volcano with holes using Don and Dex's drilling vehicle, when Chuck accidentally makes the whole volcano collapse, he's charged $10,000,000 (10,000 times what he planned to earn) for it.
- Shout-Out: The ending of Hypnotic Telephones features Wing throwing a pie at Chuck, referencing a common running gag from Spongebob Squarepants where Squidward would throw pies in the faces of other characters.
- Smelly Skunk: Chuck takes on aspects of this with his Smokey Skunk transformation, being able to fart at will which usually makes his enemies pass out. When he was turned tiny in The Incredible Shrinking Chicken he used his farts to fly like a deflating balloon to escape the grasp of an earthworm.
- Suddenly Speaking: The Chuck Chicken Power Up series after having no characters talk in it for the first few episodes, suddenly has voiced dialog for characters involved in the story.
- Super-Senses: Chuck has advanced vision with his Eagle Eyes transformation and his Phasing Bat transformation gives him advanced hearing with sonar waves.
- Super-Speed: Chuck has this with his Speeding Cheetah transformation.
- Super-Strength: Chuck has this with his Rhino Strength transformation.
- Terrible Trio: Two trios: The first being Dee, Don, and Dex, the later two being the sidekick of Dee. The second is Dr. Mingo and his sidekicks Pen and Guin.
- The Phoenix:
- A Fire Phoenix grants Chuck Adoodledoo the Golden Egg he uses throughout the series. He is given it as a replacement after requesting Wing's actual bag, unfortunately burnt to a crisp, after refusing Flick's request for both the extravagant bags the Phoenix offers.
- The Golden Egg later hatched into a Little Phoenix in Chuck Chicken Power Up.
- Transformation Trinket: Chuck uses a Nixogear in Chuck Chicken: Power Up which acts as this. Before it hatched into the Little Phoenix, the Golden Egg acted as one.
- Two Guys and a Girl: Chuck Adoodledoo, with Flick Feathers being his female friend, and Wing Span his male.
- Vile Vulture: Sinister Emperor acts as a major villain of the series.
- Weaponized Stench: In his titular episode, Rotten Robert uses his stench as a tool, with it taking the form of extendable arms and the shape of a gun which does fire bullets.
