=== Teen Angels ===
*Captain Caveman (voiced by Jeff Bergman): The main protagonist of the series, and the main companion of the Teen Angels. Captain Caveman, sometimes referred to as "Cavey", is billed as "the world's first superhero." He is a neanderthal caveman who is displaced from his time period, and is a close friend and protector of the Angels. He was trapped in an ice cube for a long time until he happened to float towards the city of Crystal Cove and stop at a cave, where the Teen Angels came across him while looking for a place to sunbathe. Not wanting to draw much attention, the girls decided to bring him back to Ariel and Brenda's house, where they would thaw and teach him aspects of modern times, as well as how to talk. When he noticed Ariel's superhero comics, he got fascinated with them and decided to become one himself, by dressing up with some hand-me-downs, undergoing training to "jump good", and naming himself with the moniker of "Captain CAAAVEMAAAAN!!!!". Since then, he assists The Angels with solving mysteries, via his strength and using his beard to keep anything he can find. Interestingly enough, his loose grasp on the English language led to him mispronouncing “teenagers” as “teen angels”, which is the name of the sleuth team. Captain Caveman has a strong sense of justice and is always enthusiastic to help fight evil and do good, usually after shouting his own name in a dramatic fashion. His other catchphrase is "Unga bunga!". Sometimes, when in disguise to blend in with humans, his name is Chester "Chet" Stone.

She gets scared of all the scary people, strangers, monsters, villains, supernatural and phantoms that she and the other Angels encounter, mainly because they often capture her. Because of her shyness, Brenda often finds herself scared in most cases. She also appears to be the "damsel in distress" (similar to Daphne Blake), and would occasionally get kidnapped, tied up, and then left imprisoned.

Selena has a bohemian and free-spirited style, adorned with flowing skirts, beaded jewelry, and floral accessories. Her long, wavy hair carries a few streaks of vibrant colors.

Mindy is the team's tech genius, hacking into systems and using her gadgets to uncover digital mysteries. Her dry sense of humor and logical thinking add a modern and dynamic element to the Teen Queens' problem-solving approach.
** Lorelei "Rory" Frost (voiced by ): A former member of the Teen Queens, and Taffy's predecessor. Rory has a cool and composed demeanor with an ice-themed style. Her outfit includes shades of blue and silver, resembling a frosty landscape. She often wears reflective sunglasses. Rory is a strategic thinker with an ability to maintain composure in high-pressure situations. She excels in deciphering complex puzzles and enjoys the thrill of outsmarting adversaries.

* The Quest Team:
** Jonny Quest (voiced by Zachary Levi): The adventurous and resourceful leader of the Quest Team. Jonny's curiosity and bravery drive the team's exploration of mysteries and challenges. He is the 14-year-old son of Dr. Quest.
** Hadji Singh (voiced by Avan Jogia): A skilled and knowledgeable member of the team with a focus on mystical and scientific expertise. Hadji contributes his unique insights to solving the mysteries they encounter. He is Jonny's 16-year-old best friend and adoptive brother.
** Jessie Bannon (voiced by Mae Whitman): The new addition to the team, bringing her own set of skills and perspectives. Jessie is resourceful, intelligent, and a valuable asset to the Quest Team. She is the 15-year-old daughter of Race Bannon and her mother Jade Kenyon-Bannon.

* Josie and the Pussycats:
** Josie McCoy (voiced by Amanda Leighton): The Pussycats' main frontwoman and lead guitarist. She is known to be charismatic, determined, and passionate about music. Portrayed as a sweet, attractive, courageous and level-headed teenage girl, Josie is usually the stable center in the middle of the chaos surrounding her band and her friends. Josie is a sweet girl who is actually sort of like a female Archie. She can be a little scatterbrained and goofy, and sometimes snooty and ambitious, but she always means well.
** Melody Valentine (voiced by Kristen Bell): The Pussycats' absent-minded blonde drummer and backup singer. Melody is a cute, vivacious blonde and usually speaks in a sing-song voice. She is a slightly ditzy, naïve, absent-minded, carefree, bubbly sort of character, often taken to using silly nonsense language and provides much of the comic relief of the series. Melody's overwhelming beauty can be used as a plot device. When male characters see her, they uncontrollably fall for her and lose all sense of anything else, frequently leading to chaos; although, she is usually oblivious to this. Despite any trouble that occurs for her or her friends, Melody maintains a cheerful, optimistic attitude. Also, whenever the group is in a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation, Melody's ears would wiggle. She is frequently brainwashed by villains, but is already rather scatterbrained. She is based on both her comic and cartoon counterparts.
** Valerie Brown (voiced by Nika Futterman): The Pussycats' tomboyish bassist and backup singer. Valerie is more tomboyish than her bandmates, and is known to be cool, laid-back, and musically versatile. She is also headstrong, street-smart, tough, strong-willed and perceptive. She occasionally shows a quick temper as well as being physically stronger than she might appear. She is also less concerned about her appearance or her love life than the Pussycats or Alexandra, and had rarely been seen in a romantic relationship as she preferred to remain emotionally reserved when it came to boys, though she seems attracted to Ollie. She is based on her comic counterpart.
** Evelyn Walsh (voiced by Alison Brie): The Pussycats' keytarist, keyboardist and backup singer. She is known to be quirky, tech-savvy, and enthusiastic about synthesizers. She is somehow the "Velma Dinkley" of the group. The voice of reason in the group, Evelyn is sharp-witted, cynical, sarcastic, level-headed, highly intelligent and a mechanical wizard. She is the most analytical and calculating of the girls, always thinking "way outside the box" and usually coming out with better judgment than the rest of them. Additionally, she is also the most sensitive of them all and only the mere thought of being betrayed by someone she loves can be enough to break her heart. However, she is also a fast forgiver and will always be ready to give such people a second chance. She is basically a "walking encyclopedia" who is a whiz of science, math, history, technology, mechanics and everything. She is the character who saves the day the most often, thanks to her mechanical and scientific genius. She is based on the comic character Pepper Smith and the cartoon counterpart of Valerie Brown.
** Phoebe Lake (voiced by Nicole Sullivan): The Pussycats' tambourinist, multi-instrumentalist and backup singer. She is known to be calm, collected, and deeply connected to the groove. Phoebe is a literal, attractive girl-next-door tomboy who is nice, beautiful, smart, funny, comely, cute, level-headed, kind-hearted, sweet, caring, talented, athletic, and culinarily talented. She has a passion for writing and is a good student, detective and auto-mechanic. Phoebe is a beautiful, modest and kindhearted young woman who projects a warm and friendly attitude toward others, although she can also be a bit shy and unassertive. Her insecurities make her project a naive personality, although she has also been shown to possess a volatile temper when provoked. She is also the group's main songwriter, and is occasionally seen playing different instruments. She acts reminiscent of Betty Cooper from Archie Comics.
** Trish Raymond (voiced by Tessa Thompson): The Pussycats' rhythm guitarist and backup singer. She is known to be edgy, creative, and with a passion for catchy riffs. She appears to be the somewhat "danger-prone" fashionista of the group (just like Daphne Blake), and is a wealthy rich girl. Trish is a very friendly, compassionate, caring, selfless, generous and outgoing person with a big heart. She has a positive attitude and is usually easygoing. She hardly gets mad at anyone and because of these traits, added to her natural beauty and charisma, it's not strange to see men falling for her. She is very sympathetic to others and is always willing to help her friends out. She has a strong passion for fashion and the arts. She acts reminiscent of Veronica Lodge from Archie Comics, but more nicer and friendlier.
** Alexander Cabot III (voiced by Neil Patrick Harris): The shifty, rich, temperamental and not-too-dependable general manager of the Pussycats, reminiscent of Reggie Mantle from Archie comics. Alex brings a mix of challenges and opportunities to the band. He often gets the group in hot water because of his crazy promotional schemes. Alex wears sunglasses often and likes to flaunt his wealth, typically dressing in flamboyant and expensive clothing. He has a crush on Josie and often tries to divert her attention from her boyfriend, Alan. He is blunt and critical towards Alan, regarding him as all brawn and no brains. Occasionally, Alexander will take an interest in Melody, particularly when Josie is unavailable. The interest seems genuine, since, unlike other boys, who fall helplessly in love with Melody at first sight, Alex tends to remain composed around her. It later comes to the point of being Melody's love interest after focusing on her more than Josie.
** Alexandra Cabot (voiced by Emma Stone): Alexander's talentless twin sister and Josie's rival. She is nicknamed "Xandra" in order to avoid confusion with her brother's name. Xandra often overshadows the rest of the cast and adds a competitive edge to the series. She is the only girl who is not a Pussycat band member of Josie's group, but is still an associate of the group. She is identified by her long black pony-tailed hair with a white streak through the center of it, similar to a skunk or a polecat (her bizarre appearance is an unexplained holdover from the comic book, where Xandra had very limited supernatural powers, and this was the mark of the witch). She is generally mean-tempered, bully-like, self-centered, selfish, immature, ignorant, arrogant, offensive, spoiled, obnoxious, grouchy, and uncooperative. She never does anything to help the gang and has no identifiable role with the band, nor any actual reason for traveling with them, other than her brother being the general manager. She has a serious (and somewhat obsessive) crush on Alan, although he likes Josie. She tries to do anything she can to get Alan's attention, often getting her cat, Sebastian, to help her. Such attempts always backfire badly on her, and also usually causes the jams she and the Pussycats get in - all of the problems she and the gang get into are her fault. Additionally, she also tries to sabotage Josie and the Pussycats every chance she gets (especially when they have a concert), but always backfire. She is constantly bitter and jealous of the band's success without her, believing that she should be "the real star of the band" and that the band's name should be "Xandra's Cool-Time Cats". She constantly plots to steal the spotlight (and Alan's affections) from Josie, only to have every scheme fail in humiliating fashion. She can be a good dancer. Despite her jealousy, she remains very loyal and does care for the group. She will usually fight with them against villains, using her brash personality to intimidate the opposition. Alexandra frequently saves the lives of her teammates, frequently rescuing the clueless Melody from falling into a villainous trap. She is based on both her comic and cartoon counterparts.
** Sebastian the Cat (voiced by Tom Kenny): Alexandra's pet tuxedo cat sidekick. Sebastian follows Xandra's schemes, but unlike her, he has no real grudge or dislike towards Josie and is usually shown to be friendly to her. He is the reincarnation of Sebastian Cabot, a witchcraft-practicing ancestor of the Cabot family who was executed for consorting with witches. Whenever Xandra holds Sebastian in her arms, she can cast powerful magic spells. Where Xandra is conniving, Sebastian just likes pulling pranks on those he can scare easily. His loyalty is also questionable, as he'll laugh whenever Xandra gets her comeuppance every time she schemes against Josie over Alan. He is based on both his comic and cartoon counterparts.
** Alan Mayberry (voiced by John Oliver): A tall, blond, muscular, good-hearted folk singer who serves as the Pussycats' roadie and Josie's love interest. Alan adds a romantic subplot to the series and supports the Pussycats with his roadie duties. Xandra is constantly trying to win a date with him and steal him from Josie. Though Alex looks down on Alan and insults his intelligence, Alan has more common sense than Alex does. He is strong and confident, and usually the muscle of the group. While in danger, Alan can be careless by having so much trouble for himself and the rest of the gang like Josie and the Pussycats against these many bad guys as well. He goes on a successful mission to defeat them. He is mainly based on his comic book counterpart.
** Adrian "Ace" Sterling (voiced by Nolan North): The organized and leadership-oriented head member of the road crew. Much like Fred Jones, Ace is strategic, resourceful, and takes charge during investigations or challenges. He also serves as the mechanic, trap-planner and the unofficial chauffeur for the band. Ace grew up in a family of mechanics and developed a passion for fixing things from a young age. His mechanical skills quickly made him an indispensable asset to the Pussycats' road crew. Outside of his roadie duties, Ace enjoys classic car restoration and has a collection of vintage vehicles. He often spends his free time fine-tuning and upgrading the band's tour bus, turning it into a mobile powerhouse. Ace has a rugged yet stylish fashion sense. He's often seen wearing a leather jacket adorned with various patches and badges earned from the band's tours. His practical clothing reflects his hands-on approach to roadie work. Ace is not just a skilled mechanic; he's also a talented guitarist. Occasionally, he joins the Pussycats for jam sessions, adding a rockin' edge to their sound. His guitar skills come in handy when the band faces musical challenges or impromptu performances. Ace is known for his level-headedness and ability to keep calm under pressure. His leadership skills extend beyond roadie duties, making him a natural problem solver and mediator within the group. Ace shares a camaraderie with the Pussycats, especially with Evelyn, Phoebe and Trish. He sees the road crew as an extended family and is fiercely protective of the band. Despite his serious exterior, he has a soft spot for the eccentricities of the music world.
** Oliver "Ollie" Baxter (voiced by Mick Wingert): The laid-back and easygoing yet cowardly promoter of the road crew. Similar to Shaggy Rogers, Ollie has a love for food, a carefree attitude, and often provides comic relief to the group. He is cowardly like Shaggy, but he takes his job as the Pussycats' assistant manager very seriously and he is very loyal to the band and his friends. He most often serves as a comedic foil for Xandra's constant scheming. He is more friendlier than Alex, and tends to gravitate towards Valerie. Ollie is sometimes seen as a mischievous goofball, but at other times quite sensitive. He is also fond of playing the ukulele and singing, and also liked to ride his motor scooter. While Ollie is similar to Shaggy, he is also based on Alan's comic predecessor Albert. Ollie is affectionately nicknamed "Ollie-Ollie" by the Pussycats, a playful reference to his laid-back nature. The nickname is often used to lighten the mood during stressful situations. Ollie's love for food goes beyond just snacking. He's an amateur chef and often experiments with creating unique dishes for the band. Despite his sometimes unconventional recipes, the Pussycats appreciate his culinary efforts. Ollie has a vintage motor scooter that he cherishes. He uses it to explore new places, often stumbling upon quirky locations and interesting characters. His scooter becomes an unintentional source of both comedy and adventure. Ollie is passionate about playing the ukulele and often serenades the Pussycats with his laid-back tunes. His musical interludes provide a soothing contrast to the band's high-energy performances and add a touch of whimsy to the group dynamic. While generally easygoing, Ollie has moments of extreme fear, especially when confronted by Xandra's schemes. These moments of panic often lead to comedic misunderstandings and create hilarious scenarios within the band. Ollie has a bohemian and eclectic fashion style, mixing colorful patterns and mismatched accessories. His carefree fashion sense reflects his free-spirited personality and adds a visual flair to the Pussycats' entourage.
* The Archies:
** Archie Andrews (voiced by Ross Lynch): The rhythm guitarist, lead vocalist and main leader of the Archies (who are also known as the Teen Scene Investigators). He is a redheaded, freckled student at Riverdale High, and a reporter for the school newspaper. He is clumsy, awkward, and has trouble making decisions, but his heart is always in the right place. All of his news stories are centered around the surreal occurrences that take place within each episode and always end with "...in a little town called Riverdale." Despite his clumsiness and rash decision-making, he frequently attracts girls, human or otherwise. Archie is a typical teenage boy, attending high school, participating in sports, and dating. He is extremely kind, caring, brave and accident-prone and many of his actions, however well-intentioned, inadvertently harm the people he tries to help. He is not that academically inclined and brings home average grades. He is athletic and loves sports. He also has a love of cars and fixing them. He is also known for being easily infatuated by the many girls he meets. He has a never-ending love triangle between Betty, the girl next door, and Veronica, the wealthy socialite. In this version, he is close friends with Josie McCoy, Alan Mayberry and Ace Sterling from Josie and the Pussycats. His catchphrase is "Hey, gang, let's solve this mystery!".
** Betty Cooper (voiced by Laura Marano): The percussionist and sometimes lead guitarist of the Archies. She is a literal, attractive girl-next-door tomboy with bright blonde hair who is nice, beautiful, smart, tomboyish, funny, comely, cute, level-headed, kind-hearted, sweet, caring, talented, athletic, culinarily talented and intelligent, and is the head of the cheerleading squad who is in love with Archie. She is best friends with Veronica, despite them both competing for Archie's affection. She has a passion for writing and is a good student, detective and auto-mechanic. She also appears to be the most musically talented in the group. Betty has played the recorder, tambourine, maracas, guitar, banjo, keyboard, saxophone, cello, and the bongos. She cares deeply for the well-being of others and is always ready to help people with their problems. While friendly by nature and sporting a stable relationship with everyone, Betty isn't without her quibbles and can sometimes be assertive when the situation calls for it. Despite her humble nature, she can also sometimes show bouts of childish jealousy and has lost her temper at least a few times, although her fuse is quite long. In this version, she is close friends with Phoebe Lake (the tambourine player and multi-instrumentalist of the Pussycats), who is a girl-next-door like her.
** Veronica Lodge (voiced by Dove Cameron): The keyboardist of the Archies. She is a beautiful, spoiled-rich, popular, and somewhat self-centered brunette wealthy socialite girl. She is best friends with Betty, with whom she also shares a rivalry for Archie's affection. Although both of them are frequently the target of Reggie's advances, Veronica is targeted somewhat more often. Veronica is a very rich girl, the daughter of the super wealthy multi-billionaire and business tycoon and industrialist Hiram Lodge. She is known to be the richest girl in Riverdale. She is a spendthrift, quite spoiled and vain, but is friendly, compassionate, caring, selfless, and generous. She gets along well with most of her classmates no matter their financial status. She rarely gets along with Jughead Jones due to his lazy demeanor, though occasionally they set aside their differences, albeit usually to get Archie out of trouble. In this version, she is close friends with Trish Raymond (the rhythm guitarist of the Pussycats), and they both like to gossip about trends and fashion. Her catchphrase is "Fashion fades, but style is eternal!".
** Reggie Mantle (voiced by Josh Hutcherson): The bassist of the Archies. He is an egotistical, aloof, prank-prone, self-confident, popular and rich jock who has a one-sided crush on Veronica and is frenemies with Archie. He is generally the most disliked member of the group. He is highly vain and conceited, thinks he can date anyone he wants, and expects everyone to think the world of him. He likes to pick on others, especially Jughead and Archie. Reggie is very fashion-conscious, often changing his clothes, appearance, or hair to keep in touch with the times. He is a talented athlete and is mentioned to be the star of many sports teams, including football, baseball, basketball, and ice hockey. Being of sneaky nature, he occasionally tries to win games by using technicalities found in the rule book. He has been called "Rule Book Reggie" because of this. His quick, though sometimes rude, wit has gotten him through many tough situations. Reggie has a serious side and is known to be kind and helpful when has to but tries to keep such instances hidden. In this version, he is close friends with Alexander "Alex" Cabot III from Josie and the Pussycats, since they are both snarky and temperamental towards the others.
** Jughead Jones (voiced by Dylan O'Brien): The drummer of the Archies. He is Archie's eccentric, funny, quirky and geeky yet insightful, sarcastic, snarky and smart best friend who almost always has food on his mind, especially hamburgers. He generally does not like girls, although he is close friends with Betty, and he often butts heads with Veronica and Reggie. Jughead generally has a characteristic wry and sarcastic sense of humor. He is considered a bit of an oddity, but prefers his nonconformism as opposed to going along with others styles. His many quirks make him the butt of teasing and abuse from Reggie, Veronica, and even other classmates and teachers. He is revealed to be extremely clever and creative when necessary and he often takes advantage of Reggie's and his other tormentors' weaknesses (and has fun all the while). He owns a litany of pets throughout the series, most notably Hot Dog, who is just as lazy as he is. Jughead usually wears a gray whoopee cap on his head, covering his choppy black hair. In this version, he is close friends with Ollie Baxter from Josie and the Pussycats, due to their laid-back demeanor and their love for food. He is also the cousin of Fred Jones.
** Ethel Muggs (voiced by Mae Whitman): The xylophone player of the Archies. She is a tall, stringy, weird, nerdy, eccentric and somewhat dorky but goodhearted, friendly and well-meaning girl of unusual height who has an open, one-sided crush on Jughead. She is usually ignored by most of her peers despite her big heart. Despite her dorky exterior, Ethel boasts a surprising skillset. She is highly competent at performing magic tricks, and making use of beekeeping equipment. When faced with a serious situation, Ethel has also proven to be good at thinking on her feet, dodging attacks from a giant humanoid bee and immediately thinking up a solution to counter it. She appears to be a fan of science fiction, art, and trains. She also has a talent for making doll-house furniture, and often works as a babysitter. She is also a fine cook, which is one of the reasons Jughead occasionally submits to being around her. She is fond of dogs, and sometimes uses her attractive female poodle, Clementine, as bait to lure Jughead and Hot Dog. In this version, she is close friends with Melody Valentine (the drummer of the Pussycats), due to their ditzy but kind-hearted personalities.
** Dilton Doiley (voiced by Noah Schnapp): The theremin player of the Archies. He is a bespectacled, nerdy, socially awkward, and slightly cowardly genius who is friends with Archie and the others. He usually helps save the day by building high-tech gadgets and concocting substances, although sometimes his inventions are the very cause of such conflicts. Nonetheless, he remains optimistic and is always eager to test out whatever new invention or theory comes to mind. Whenever a new find is discovered, he never hesitates to show up to investigate (sometimes appearing immediately after he's called) and can sometimes get carried away when pursuing his research. He also has a notably hard time destroying his own creations, and should one of them fail, he can sometimes show some hesitancy shutting it off, especially if it holds great potential. Nonetheless, he never gives up and is always furnishing his mind with bright new ideas. He does most of his work in the school lab (as a reward for his exceptional grades), where he is often isolated from his peers and all but lacks a social life. His catchphrase is, "I'll be super amalgamated!" In this version, he is close friends with Evelyn Walsh (the keyboardist of the Pussycats), since they are both the smartest in their bands.
** Midge Klump (voiced by Kiernan Shipka): The violinist of the Archies. She is Moose's unlikely girlfriend who has both brains and brawn. She is the subject of Reggie's unrequited crush, even though she does not like him very much. Midge is a kindhearted and spirited girl with a lot of patience, who tends to stay above the fray whenever there is drama going on. She is into athletics and wants to become a stuntwoman. Despite that, she also enjoys sports, fashion, cheerleading and journalism, and is a close friend of the other girls. In this version, she and Moose are close friends with Valerie Brown (the bassist of the Pussycats), due to their strong-willed demeanor.
** Moose Mason (voiced by Chris Wood): The triangle player of the Archies. He is an oafish and slow-witted but sensitive star athlete with more heart than brains, who plays multiple sports and is generally on good terms with Archie's friend group. He is the boyfriend of Midge Klump (despite their intellectual differences), and is highly protective of her (especially when she is the target of Reggie's advances). Moose is blessed with great strength. In one sequence, he slides under a car and, from his supine position, lifts it off the ground. As a result, people often have high expectations of him regarding athletics. He has helped Riverdale High School win many matches in basketball, baseball, football, ice hockey, and various other sports, though he seems to have a preference for football. While Moose is easily angered and will threaten to hurt those who upset him, he is very kind, loyal, and compassionate. He is always willing to help somebody in need, and he constantly protects his friends from bullies (often without using punches). He also cares for the well being of animals and small children. He often says "duh" at the beginning of sentences. In this version, he and Midge are close friends with Valerie Brown (the bassist of the Pussycats), due to their strong-willed demeanor.
** Hot Dog (voiced by Tom Kenny): The main mascot of the Archies who acts as their conductor, and occasionally plays the harmonica. He is Jughead Jones' pet English Sheepdog and best friend (apart from Archie Andrews) and they share a love for being lazy, sleeping in, and, of course, food. Hot Dog's house looks like a regular doghouse on the outside, but because it was altered by a group of Space Canines, it is the most advanced and modern facility. Unlike other versions, he understands human languages and can speak clear English. In this version, he appears to be close friends with Sebastian the Cat from Josie and the Pussycats, and they both sometimes work together on mischief moments.
* The Speed Team:
** Speed Buggy (voiced by Jim Cummings): The main anthropomorphic buggy mascot of the Speed Team. He is nicknamed "Speedy" by his friends, and is alternately named "S-P-E-E-D Buggy", which is short for "The Self-Proclaimed Enigmatic Energy Driver Buggy". He is a talking and super fast racing dune buggy with artificial intelligence and a love of racing and thrills, built by Luther "Tinker" Phillips and his pit crew friends Mark, Debbie, Max and Serena to be the ultimate speed machine as well as their loyal companion. Speed Buggy not only has unique abilities but also contributes to the team's discussions and decision-making. Speed Buggy is easily excitable and loves racing and driving, but can become scared and apprehensive about potential danger. Despite his reservations, he can be easily encouraged to brave danger by the thought of impressing someone.
** Luther "Tinker" Phillips (voiced by Danny McBride): The main designated driver of the Speed Team who is Speed Buggy's owner and best friend. He is a teenage drag racer, mechanic, computer genius and vehicle enthusiast with a knack for racing and sleuthing with his pit crew and special vehicular companion. Tinker ensures that Speed Buggy is always in top-notch condition and is responsible for navigating the team through various adventures. He is somewhat like Gomer Pyle and speaks like him, including saying "Gol-lee!" when surprised. Tinker has a dream of becoming a renowned inventor, not just in the realm of racing but also for creating revolutionary gadgets. His inventive spirit occasionally leads to the team having access to cutting-edge technology. Tinker has a passion for collecting antique racing memorabilia. His workshop is adorned with vintage racing posters, classic helmets, and other artifacts that inspire him and pay homage to the history of racing. Tinker comes from a long line of mechanics and racing enthusiasts, and he feels a strong sense of responsibility to uphold his family's legacy in the automotive world. This connection to his roots motivates him in his endeavors. Tinker enjoys reading mystery novels in his downtime. His fascination with solving fictional mysteries occasionally influences his approach to real-life challenges and adds a layer of deductive reasoning to the team's problem-solving. Tinker has a secret talent for playing a musical instrument, perhaps the harmonica or guitar. This unexpected skill provides a unique dimension to his character and becomes a source of camaraderie within the team.
** Debbie Lyons (voiced by Kristen Bell): The most athletic, tomboyish, charismatic and adventurous yet beautiful leader of the Speed Team. Debbie takes charge of the team's expeditions, making decisions, and keeping the group on track. She is also good at defending herself and her friends. Debbie is generally a good-natured young woman who cares deeply about her friends. She tries to help her group with certain situations that the boys and Serena have difficulty dealing with. As the leader of her group, the boys and Serena think of her as a glue of the team, that keep them together; otherwise, without her, the team would fall apart. Debbie is the most mature, disciplined and skilled. Calm, cool, and collected, she always attempts to help her crew to be the best racers they can. Despite her mature personality, she is courageous, enthusiastic, and is interested in a few anime and cartoons herself and enjoys soccer, martial arts and swordsmanship. Confident, even-tempered, level-headed, passionate, imaginative, tender, fair-minded, calm, caring and somewhat humorous of the team, she is a serious do-gooder who does not joke around. Her enthusiasm and bravado puts her front and center for most of their bizarre adventures. She has auto-mechanic skills and assisted Tinker in building Speed Buggy. She is also best friends with Serena. She is the "Leonardo" of the team. Besides her leadership and mechanic skills, Debbie has a hidden talent, perhaps something unexpected like playing a musical instrument or excelling in a niche hobby. Despite her adventurous nature, Debbie has a fear of heights. This personal challenge becomes a recurring theme in certain episodes, where overcoming this fear becomes a key part of the story. Debbie looks up to a famous racer or adventurer as her role model. This admiration drives her determination and shapes her approach to challenges, instilling a sense of responsibility and honor. Debbie cherishes a particular racing memory from her childhood or a special event that fuels her passion for racing and serves as a source of motivation during tough times. Debbie comes from a family with a rich history in racing or automotive engineering. This background contributes to her skills and passion for the world of speed.
** Mark Zimmerman (voiced by Sean Astin): The brainy and intelligent mechanic, engineer and tech genius of the Speed Team, known for his intelligence and problem-solving skills. He is excellent with gadgets, electronics and technology, and he knows how to create traps. Mark analyzes situations and comes up with strategic plans to overcome challenges. Mark is the most smartest, nerdiest, resourceful and inventive of the heroes. An intellectual, he often attempts to find an alternative way of reaching his goals. Mark is a gifted polymath, possessing a natural aptitude for science and technology, and often speaks in technobabble. He is the most logical and rational of his crew, possessing a high sense of ingenuity and serving as the second-in-command of the team. He is responsible for all technological innovations the team utilizes, such as technical expertise, intel gathering, vehicles, homemade bioweapons, and everything in between. Any science and math skill you can think of, he will do it all. Despite Mark being quiet, sensitive, friendly, calm, sensible, passive, pacifistic, gentle, lovable, shy, somewhat timid, friendly, cautious, clever and a genius, he also can be sarcastic, protective and mischievous at times and is more prone to panicking and losing his temper. He has auto-mechanic skills and he assisted Tinker in building Speed Buggy. He is also best friends with Max. He is the "Donatello" of the team. In addition to his expertise in mechanics and technology, Mark has a deep passion for robotics. He enjoys building and programming small robots, which occasionally come in handy during the team's adventures. Mark is fluent in multiple languages, which proves beneficial when the team travels to different locations. His language skills open doors to new connections and help in decoding messages or clues in various languages. Mark is an avid fan of science fiction literature and movies. His love for futuristic concepts and imaginative storytelling often inspires his technological innovations and problem-solving strategies.

*The Fangface Crew:
**Sherman "Fangs" Fangsworth/Fangface (voiced by Ben Schwartz): The human mascot of the Fangface Crew who transforms into the werewolf-like Fangface under the light of the full moon, or anything resembling the moon. Fangs/Fangface brings a mix of humor and excitement to the series. He imitates Huntz Hall of The Bowery Boys fame. The tall, skinny simpleton of the group, Fangs is basically comic relief of the show having no real use as Fangs and getting changed into Fangface when he's needed. Though Fangs does show a spark of use when he's super scared. When he's super scared, he comes up with a super good idea to save his super scared neck. Despite the temporary difficulty of Fangface attacking Puggsy, the gang never hesitates to initiate the transformation to take advantage of the werewolf's power to cope with any danger. Indeed, they often refer to Fangface as their "secret weapon", even though very few people are afraid of him. Fangface and Fangs are unaware of each other, but Fangface lives in the moment, so he never seems to question why he's suddenly in a new place, whereas Fangs is always bewildered upon reversion. Although it is consistently odd, if Fangface ever sees food, or hears a food word like "turkey", he eats Puggsy. Although, he doesn't swallow him whole; he just leaves him trapped in his jaw. The only way to get Puggsy out of Fangface's jaw is for either Buster or Kim to rub Fangface's foot, thereby calming him down and releasing Puggsy. Another odd coincidence is that whenever Fangface sees his reflection in a mirror, he goes completely wild and only relies on instinct; sometimes with an addition of an order given to him. Even though Fangs and Fangface are completely different in their personalities, they have similarities to one another. Both of his forms wear an orange hat, although the rest of Fangs' clothes disappear in Fangface form, and are friends of Kim, Buster, Puggsy, Carmyn, Sadie and Zack. Both forms also say the phrase "Ooh! Ooh!" (the trademark exclamation of Joe E. Ross) before expressing an idea. As Fangs, he has curly light brown hair with a red baseball cap and hazel eyes, and wears a light yellow T-shirt with blue jeans and matching brown shoes. As Fangface, he is a giant brown-furred werewolf with a single giant fang, wearing nothing but his trademark cap.
**Kim Carlton (voiced by Auli'i Cravalho): Fangs' friend and a key member of the team. She has short wavy black hair with a fuchsia headband, dark tan skin and chocolate brown eyes, and wears a cute lavender sweater with a fuchsia skirt and matching heels. Kim is known for her resourcefulness, and helps Fangs navigate the challenges that come with his transformations. She is the brainy and beautiful dusky-skinned Latina of the crew, and her catchphrase is "Wilikers!". She is also the "Danger-prone Damsel" of the group, just like Daphne Blake. Her personality is similar to Diana Lombard from Martin Mystery. Kim is a highly intelligent, serious, rational and obsessive straight-A student, and is Zack's female counterpart during investigations. Her best friend is Carmyn. She is also, but normally seen as the clean-freak, goody-goody, overachiever and brainiac of the team, and can be a bit of a perfectionist. Kim is at times quite timid, jumpy, squeamish and uptight on missions, but shows great courage when called on. Not sharing Zack's love of the paranormal, she often tries to explain something with logic before it becomes apparently paranormal. She also seems to be the "bait" for the majority of their missions and usually plays the role of damsel in distress in several episodes. However, on occasions she is just as capable as the others.
**Buster Sutcliffe (voiced by Robbie Daymond): A member of the team and friend to Fangs. He has brown hair and amber eyes, and wears a gray sweater with a crimson stripe on it, blue jeans and gray sneakers. Buster adds a relatable and down-to-earth element to the group, contributing to their camaraderie. He is the buff and handsome team leader of the group. His personality is now similar to Matt from Cyberchase. Buster leaps first and asks questions later – literally! He's a true friend, with bravery and brains to spare. Buster is always ready to jump in and explore, so sometimes the others have to hold him back. He's an observer and collector. He might find something along the way and stuff it into his backpack – he never knows when he might just find a use for it. When he’s got a problem to solve, Buster just wants to get his hands on it and figure it out, or play with his yo-yo until he gets an idea. Buster is a bottom-liner, and usually speaks his mind. He doesn't need to preface things he says – he just gets to the heart of the matter. He loves to run and skateboard, is curious and jumps into things before thinking, often making mistakes. He is willing to try any and all daring and extreme games. He can drive a tractor (or just about anything else), ride a horse, milk a cow, and fix anything! He's a good improviser and great at telling jokes and puns. He loves to tease his friends. Buster likes sports, skateboards and collecting things. He is impulsive, impatient, tells jokes, and knows a lot about Greek mythology, geology and Star Wars. His catchphrase is "Touchdown!".
**Puggsy Colmare (voiced by Eric Bauza): A loyal and humorous companion to Fangs and the team. He has black hair with a gray fedora and black eyes, and wears a short-sleeved red button up shirt alongside crimson pants with a black belt and gray shoes. Puggsy provides comic relief and adds a quirky dynamic to the group. He is the short, stocky and pugnacious smart aleck of the group, and imitates Leo Gorcey of The Bowery Boys fame. He and Fangs/Fangface are very close friends, despite the fact that the latter tries to eat the former sometimes. His personality is also similar to Digit, Bianca and Harry from Cyberchase. Puggsy is well-intentioned but can be clumsy and awkward. He often serves as a comic relief/smart aleck character, and has several idiosyncratic catchphrases. Puggsy can also be worrisome and overbearing at times, but he is typically sweet and mostly comes across solutions to problems by accident, and is quick to accept being called a genius before he knows how what he said or did was useful. Full of energy, Puggsy rushes into things without thinking. He makes mistakes but isn’t afraid to admit them. He likes to try new jobs and socialize with friends. He is also inventive and always ready to try something new. His hasty and rash personality sometimes causes embarrassment or trouble for him. His catchphrases are "Bada-bing, bada-boom!", and "Never fear, the Pugs is here!".
**Carmyn Lane (voiced by Michelle Ruff): A fellow companion and good friend of Fangs and his crew. She has long dark blue-black hair and gray eyes, and wears a red and black striped shirt underneath a yellow jacket, beige pants and matching tan shoes. She is the "drama queen" of the crew. Her personality is similar to Jackie from Cyberchase. Carmyn is a natural-born organizer. She's quite stylish, smart, poised and charming. Carmyn has a big heart, and she's also filled with big ideas and big plans. Don't get on her bad side though, because she speaks her mind and doesn't mince words. Sometimes Carmyn freaks out just a little bit, if it looks like things aren't going well. And she really doesn't like trolls and giant amphibians. But when there's a problem to tackle, Carmyn jumps in and talks it out to find a solution. A good listener, Carmyn is quick to pick up clues. She's got a sly sense of humor, and loves adventure. She likes to be neat and organized, and to approach problems in her own way, which often helps the Fangface Crew solve their problems faster. She makes diagrams, charts, graphs and draws pictures. She loves fashion and is a good artist. Despite being beautiful, Carmyn is known to be melodramatic at times, resulting in Buster making fun of her. It is always a necessity for her to create a plan before she and the Fangface Crew could start a quest or try something new. She paces when she needs to think carefully, as she would usually say "Make room, I gotta pace!". She can be very soft and sweet when it comes to meeting little or young creatures. She has a big dislike for insects and bugs, or anything else slimy, icky, messy or gross she comes across. One of her most common phrases to say is "Ew, Ew, and double Ew!" when she's around those very things. Carmyn seems to like coining and using acronyms, even though she has to explain them afterward. She loves running races, gymnastics, video games, foreign languages, drawing, instant messaging, and writing plays about herself, and is very agile and limber. Her main catchphrase is "Neato!"
**Sadie Dorsey (voiced by Kelly Sheridan): A fellow companion and good friend of Fangs and his crew. She has long wavy light blonde hair and blue eyes, and wears a pink sleeveless top underneath a lilac and purple jacket, light blue flared trousers and matching sneakers. Her personality is similar to Inez from Cyberchase. Sadie is known to be the most perkiest and feistiest of the crew, and is very selfless yet a bit bashful. She's cute, hyper, outgoing, friendly, spunky, intelligent and a bit of a tomboy, but can be a bit ditzy, naive and gullible at times. She is an avid reader and quoter with a wide multilingual vocabulary. She loves to use big words – she isn't trying to show off, it's just the way she is. A natural skeptic, Sadie doesn't take things at face value. She doesn't mind asking questions and she doesn't like being wrong. Sadie likes to think things through too, often puzzling them out while balanced on her head, sitting upside-down with her legs crossed. She loves to giggle a lot on amusing things and to quote – her family, famous people, herself! When confronting baddies, Sadie stays calm and focused, but likes to holler at times. She loves animals, reads a lot, and has a large vocabulary so she seems older than she is. She's a fast runner, a great singer, an excellent roller-skater and bike rider, and a very good basketball player. She is also a sugar freak at times. She hates it when somebody (especially her friends) calls her "Didi" and tells them not to call her that, by saying "Don't call me Didi!". When things seem to be bad, she usually says: "This is not good! This is not good at all!" Her main catchphrase is "Brilliant!"
**Zack Martinez (voiced by Benjamin Diskin): A fellow companion and good friend of Fangs and his crew. He is quite tall like Fangs. He has jet black hair with a tan and black snapback and green eyes, and wears a long-sleeved pale green polo shirt with dark green accents on the shoulders and a dark green number 5 on it, brown pants and a pair of red and white sneakers. Zack is the brawn, muscle and tank of the crew. Similar to Shaggy Rogers from Scooby-Doo, he is laid-back and loves food. However, unlike Shaggy, he is not much of a coward. His personality is also similar to Martin Mystery from the show of the same name. Zack has a wild passion for the paranormal and the supernatural. He is a clumsy, arrogant, immature and hyperactive nerd, constantly bursting with energy. He seldomly thinks before leaping into danger, even if it is to help someone in peril whenever they are on a mission, Zack always jumps into conclusions and comes up with every unlikely theory he can think of, usually from some movie he saw or from his subscription to "Paranormal Monthly". Zack has a peculiar love for everything slimy, sloppy, and gooey - things that make Kim and Carmyn gag. Despite his flaws, Zack can be serious when it's necessary. He is very brave, really cares about his friends and family, and is always ready to help them when they are in danger. Also, he is very smart and often finds a way to defeat a monster or solve a mystery. His hobbies and interests include art history, archaeology, anthropology, adventuring, writing, sports and collecting unusual objects. Zack is a skilled extraterrestrial paranormal detective, and known for his use of U-Watch, a high-tech watch-like device with numerous gadgetry stored within (just like Martin Mystery). His catchphrase is "Coolio!".

He has a crush on Pepper.
**Pepper Stich (voiced by Abigail Howard): A female member with blonde hair and a key detective in the Clue Club. She is the reporter of the traveling Paranormal sleuths with their own podcast, The Clue Club, who travel throughout Summer Grove, interviewing residents about paranormal activity and mysterious happenings as well as solving peculiar cases for a mystery podcast on the internet.

**Desmond Dudley "D.D." Hastings (voiced by Bobby Moynihan): A male member with glasses and a Sherlock Holmes hat, bringing a keen analytical mind and creativity to the Clue Club.

Still, he often finds clues that enable the rest of the team to figure out who the culprit is.
**Dotty Stich (voiced by Isabella Acres): Pepper's 13-year-old little sister and a junior member of the Clue Club. Dotty's youthful curiosity and determination make her an invaluable part of the team. She is a gifted girl with a remarkable expertise in computers and investigations alongside her sister and friends as a traveling group of mystery reporters. Dotty provides case-solving information from her minicomputer and/or results from various forensic tests. She also had access to high-tech communications equipment, including audio/video links to the Club's car and to their wristwatches, which doubled as pagers. The youngest member of the club, she endured an arsenal of deprecating nicknames from her elder sister and friends: "half-pint," "short-stuff," and the like.
**Woofer (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker): The talking bloodhound detective of the Clue Club. Woofer, with his keen sense of smell and ability to communicate, aids the team in tracking down clues and solving mysteries. He would constantly accuse suspects without good reason, then later back-track while haughtily proclaiming his genius to satisfy his ego; he also wears a deerstalkers' cap on his head. He is a more active dog in mysteries and has a dry sense of humor.
**Wimper (voiced by Frank Welker): The talking basset hound detective of the Clue Club. Unlike Woofer, he is a more down-to-earth, relaxed and easygoing yet intelligent dog, who would at times go along with his comrade's schemes, and other times turn the tables on his pal.

Wimper's distinctive traits and communication skills add charm to the team and contribute to their detective work.

**Jonathan Wellington "Mudsy" Muddlemore (voiced by Jim Cummings): The ghost sidekick and central character of "The Funky Phantom." Mudsy brings a mix of humor and ghostly wisdom to the team. He is the ghost of an American Patriot, and the "Spirit of 1776". Mudsy grew up in a mansion called Muddlemore Manor with his family. When he was an adult, he joined the war with his pet cat, Boo. One day while picking flowers, he and Boo saw some redcoats attacking and burying a treasure. When the redcoats chased after them, they hid in a grandfather clock in some old mansion. Unfortunately, they couldn't get out and suffocated in it. Centuries later, approximately 200 years, when brothers Skip and Augie, their friends April, Dylan, Trevor and Lucy, and their pets Elmo and Rio seeked shelter from a rainstorm in the aforementioned mansion, they saw that the clock read the wrong time, and intended to set it right. In the process, the clock broke, and Mudsy and Boo were released from their chiming prison. Mudsy is a huge coward and is afraid of everything he and the kids come into contact with (such as modern-day elements and the monsters and bad guys). However, Mudsy has his moments of bravery and always ends up saving the day and capturing the bad guys. He also cares deeply about the kids as if they were his own children, and acts as a father-figure to them as well as his cat. A running gag is that Mudsy makes up claims of life in his day, but the kids usually correct him. He has a flowery speech style with exclamations like "Heavens to Delaware!" and "Exit, two nervous ghosts."
**Boo the Cat (voiced by Kate Micucci): Mudsy's ghost pet cat with the ability to interact with the living. Boo adds a playful and mischievous element to the group. She is a female white ghost cat who wears a hat with a red feather in it. Before becoming a ghost, she was a brown cat with a blue hat. She is rather cute, cuddly, a bit cowardly (though not as much as her master), and also very mischievous. She is often found teasing Augie's dog, Elmo, who is always pursuing her. Despite their feuding, Boo is willing to help the persistent bulldog whenever he's in trouble. Like Elmo is to Augie, Boo is very loyal to Mudsy and aids him whenever necessary.
**Skipper "Skip" Gilroy (voiced by Yuri Lowenthal): The red-headed natural-born leader of the gang, and Augie's stepbrother. He is a best friend of Dylan Scott's who is an aspiring investigator of the supernatural with a vast knowledge on ghosts and the tools to find them. Skip's intelligence and problem-solving skills contribute to unraveling mysteries and overcoming challenges. Skip is intelligent (specifically scientifically, with his achievements in chemistry being brought up offhandedly) and is the usual driver of the group with the Looney Duney being stated to be his car. Most often, his curiosity and determination is what drives him to initiate investigations, and true to this aspect of him he is portrayed as absorbent of the knowledge he gains. While he is generally mild-mannered he can also be fairly short-tempered and snarky with Augie in particular, but also Elmo and Mudsy at times. Additionally, while he is presented as logical, it is implied that he believes in the existence of cryptids or, at least, Bigfoot. Skip often clashes with Augie and they often clash due to their opposing personalities (Brains and brawn respectively) and occasionally over April's attention - albeit deep down they truly care about each other, remain brothers and close friends, and can work together effectively whether that's in the context of solving cases, football, or the occasional pranking Mudsy. Skip seems to take highest responsibility for teaching Mudsy modern day things such as driving and surfing.
**Augustus "Augie" Anderson (voiced by Travis Willingham): The brawny dark-haired muscle and trap maker of the gang, and Skip's stepbrother. He is sometimes nicknamed "Triple A" by his friends. He is a popular jock and Trevor Ramirez's best friend who acts as the brawn of the team and is eager to give any spectral threats that come their way a beat down, alongside him and Skip's pet English bulldog Elmo. Augie's strength and bravery provide physical support during the gang's adventures. Frequently, he brags about Elmo especially by claiming Elmo's moments of innovation are a result of his training or influence, though he sometimes berates him - demonstrating the arrogance and short temper he can have. The former can also be found in how much he brags about his own strength and physical attributes - which he diligently looks after. He's not limited to exclusively brawn, however, and some episodes feature him being the one to, with Mudsy's help, create a plan to save the others from harm in turn giving spotlight to his problem solving and considerate sides that are otherwise often overlooked. He and Skip have a sibling rivalry and often clash due to their opposing personalities and occasionally over April's attention, albeit are still established to be firm, close friends as brothers who can work effectively together when needed. Due to his strength and general stature, the rest of the team often take to hiding behind him or holding onto him when surprised, scared, or threatened and he is both a member of a glider club and built a catamaran which he used as opportunities to take his friends out. Despite his brawny exterior, he knows how to create special traps for villains. He is the halfback of Central High's football team.
**April Stewart (voiced by Ashley Johnson): The beautiful blonde supporter and first female member of the gang. She is a photography student from Massachusetts and Lucy Wang's best friend who has a fascination with history and the macabre, which would lead her and her friends to uncovering something out of the ordinary. April's intuition and observational skills make her an essential part of the team. She is a kind-hearted, vivacious, inquisitive, helpful and friendly girl, but can be sarcastic and sharp at times. She is also the smart girl of the gang, and whenever her friends are in trouble, she is always there to help. April is also shown to have a strong father-daughter relationship with Mudsy. April acts as the voice of reason and always calms Augie and Skip down when they are arguing, talks Mudsy into facing his fears when solving mysteries, and she has a crush on Dylan. Overall, she has the most common sense and is the most normal out of all of her friends. She is also the only human who likes things creepy and spooky, so her encounters with monsters is always her greeted them with a "hello". She expresses fondness towards both Elmo, Rio and Boo, the former of which she defends when Augie tells him off and dresses him up.
**Dylan Scott (voiced by Billy West): An associate of the team who is Skip's male dark blonde best friend, and acts as the team's brains. Dylan is enthusiastic and tech-savvy, providing expertise in modern gadgets and digital investigations. He is known to be quick-witted and a problem solver, complementing Skip's intelligence. Dylan is brave, smart and intelligent as well as caring, responsible and kind. His cleverness and reliability are often noted by his best friend Skip. He is usually polite, but not to bad people who do not deserve respect. He deals with the more "grown-up" things and looks out for his teammates and friends in their adventures. Dylan is the most mature of the group but, although well-meaning, his manner can at times come over as overbearing, pompous or priggish. He is good at map-reading, fishing, sailing and climbing, and he is an accomplished swimmer and diver at school. He is a huge fan of gadgets and is "big on technology". He is also an aspiring entrepreneur who likes to look for ways to make money and is always open to new money-making schemes. Brains run in his family so he relies on his wits to outsmart the bad guys. His hobbies include surfing the web, updating his website and taking photos on his latest digital camera. He aspires to be "mega rich and famous", but he's determined on doing it the right way. He has a crush on April.
**Trevor Ramirez (voiced by Tom Kenny): An associate of the crew who is Augie's raven-haired best friend. Trevor is tall, athletic and strong, contributing physical prowess to balance the team's skill set. He has a passion for outdoor activities, survival skills, and is well-connected in the adventure sports community. Trevor is adventurous, fun-loving and has a cheeky sense of humour. He sometimes teases others, and has a hot and fiery temper, but is very caring at heart. He is courageous, resourceful, headstrong, valiant, determined and daring, even in dangerous situations, and looks up to his best friend Augie. He is good at physical activities which he learnt at school, for instance gym skills, which is handy for climbing ropes, and boxing, so he is able to fight. He claims to never tell lies as that is cowardly and he is not a coward. Trevor can talk to dogs like he speaks their language. He can climb like a monkey, and has sharp instincts for navigation and survival. He is also an adrenaline junkie with a big appetite. Whenever there is a clue that involves food, he can recognize it by simply smelling the object. However, despite that Trevor loves food, he enjoys sports, such as mountain biking or skateboarding, which is why he doesn't have a large weight. He is not exactly the brightest member of the group, and acts as the comic relief/goofball of the crew. For example, whenever something is amiss, he will often assume that the culprits are aliens or monsters. However, he does have his smart moments. He is the quarterback of Central High's football team, and has a crush on Lucy.
**
**Lucy Wang (voiced by Lisa Ortiz): An associate of the crew who is April's auburnette best friend. Lucy is the most feminine, enjoying cute and girly things, and is very organised and tidy. She has a pet scarlet macaw named Rio. She is most likely than the others to be frightened, and does not enjoy the adventures as much as the others. She can be quite timid, jumpy, squeamish and uptight a few times. However, she does like activities such as swimming and climbing. She likes doing domestic things such as planning, organising and preparing things and meals, and keeping places clean and tidy, be it a cave, house, tent or caravan. Since she is girly and a happy shopaholic who loves fashion, she can recognize anything that involves fashion, fabrics, jewelry, perfume, or footwear. She loves cute animals, dolls and pretty dresses, and likes painting. Lucy also has a fear of spiders and bugs. She sometimes gets kidnapped by the villains and monsters (making her the damsel-in-distress), but the others always come to her rescue. She sometimes lets her tongue run away with her, but ultimately she is as brave and resourceful as the others, and can show great courage when called upon. Lucy is fluent in multiple languages and well-versed in cultural knowledge, aiding in deciphering clues and understanding different perspectives. She has a background in history, fashion and art, adding a unique skill set to the team. She has a crush on Trevor.

**Elmo the Dog (voiced by Frank Welker): Skip and Augie's loyal pet English Bulldog. Elmo's keen senses and loyalty make him a valuable member of the group. He is almost always seen chasing Mudsy's cat, Boo, only to be outsmarted by the mischievous ghost feline. He is the mascot of Central High's football team.
**Rio the Macaw (voiced by Tara Strong): Lucy's female pet talking scarlet macaw. Rio is loving, loyal, highly intelligent and perceptive, often picking up on details that humans might miss. She has a knack for mimicking sounds, which occasionally proves helpful in investigations. She is usually friendly, but will attack in order to protect the Funky Crew if they are in danger. She understands Lucy well and does whatever she tells her to. She can still speak complete sentences like humans do.
