Emulicks
"There could be dozens. They change their bodies to any substance with a flick of their tongue. Perfect camouflage. Perfect weapon."
— Kira
The Emulicks are a feracious species which Inhabit the Ghost Planet, their greatest power Is to alter their body to match any material which touches their tongue.
- Eating the Enemy: the Emulick from Season 1 Episode 2, Here, Girl! Is turned Into the same material as a bear claw (The food) before being devoured.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: The Emulick from Season 1 Episode 2, Here, Girl! Is forced to shapeshift Into a bear-claw-Emulick, the members of Team Pluto promptly eat the Emulick.
- Involuntary Shapeshifter: This alien's most notable trait Is that they become similar to ANYTHING that touches their tongue, this Is showcased when the Emulick from Season 1 Episode 2, Here, Girl! Is turned Into dessert and eaten by the crew.
- Shapeshifter: Downplayed, the Emulick can change to match (seemingly) any material, but It keeps much of Its original physical traits(Size, body shape, and of course, shape shifting ability.)
Shrubdubs
A race of seemingly benevolent Plant People that produce seeds that can restore planets' ecosystems.
- Create Your Own Villain: The Pluto crew's attempt to steal one of their seeds damages their space station and directly leads to them considering humans and their dogs a danger to the universe.
- Heel–Face Turn: All of them except the Elder in "Barking Up the Wrong Tree."
- Minion with an F in Evil: Gary, who at various points questions the Elder's plan and engages in less-than-menacing behaviour and eventually leads a mutiny against the Elder.
- The Mutiny: After seeing Garbage have a heartfelt conversation with Chelsea, they all abandon their invasion and turn on the Elder.
- Plant Person: All walking treelike aliens.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: After the events of "Speak," the Elder comes to believe that Humans Are the Real Monsters and launches an attack, first on the M-Bark, then on Earth itself.
