==History==
===In the Dawn of the Clans arc===
====A Forest Divided====
:Pink Eyes, a new recruit in Clear Sky's camp, crouches under a holly bush, taking shelter from the cold. When asked where Blossom is, Pink Eyes says that she is still asleep. Clear Sky remembers that not long ago he would have turned away Pink Eyes from joining his group, and then thinks that Pink Eyes' bad eyesight makes his sense of smell stronger.
:When Alder jumps on Pink Eyes' tail, he gets angry and tells her to get off, saying for her to chase her own tail, Alder says she is not a dog and Pink Eyes tells her that his tail is not prey. He then walks over to an oak tree and lies down in a sheltered spot. Pink Eyes says that he would like the starling to eat. Quick Water asks if she can share it with him and Pink Eyes replies that she can.
:When Clear Sky leaves to go patrol, he leaves Pink Eyes on guard. Pink Eyes says that he should pick a cat with better eyesight, but Quick Water then says that no cat can hear or smell better than him. Clear Sky leaves, hoping to find new recruits like Blossom, Milkweed, and Pink Eyes. Clear Sky tells Star Flower to find moss for Pink Eyes' nest, because he feels the cold easily. Pink Eyes nods in agreement with Thunder when he says that more hunting patrols should be sent out.
:Once Thunder has decided to leave Clear Sky to make a new camp in the forest, Pink Eyes decides to leave with him. Clear Sky is sad, wondering why he was leaving when he thought they were friends. He also feels like his friends should be loyal to him. On the way to Thunder's new camp, Pink Eyes stops and tastes the air and tells everyone to be quiet, and then tells them to stop. Thunder leaps past Pink Eyes onto Leaf.
:When they find a camp, Pink Eyes says that there are no cat scents and walks over to a den that Leaf found and sniffs it then curls up in it. Thunder follows Pink Eyes into the den to sleep. Thunder cannot believe that Pink Eyes watched the kits. He would let them clamber over him and play moss ball nearby. Thunder then thinks how helpful he has been by helping collect herbs, being able to find them easily with his good sense of smell.
:When Thunder returns to camp, Lightning Tail says that Pink Eyes scented that snow was coming so they had been hunting all day. His sense of smell is praised later by Owl Eyes, when Thunder worries about a fox potentially coming to the camp. Owl Eyes says that there is no need to worry, as Pink Eyes can smell a fox as far away as the moor. Blossom asks Thunder how Pink Eyes is and he says that he is happy to be in his new camp, causing Alder to mutter that he was happy at their camp as well. Thunder asks why Pink Eyes would have left in that case, before Lightning Tail steps between them and tells them they are not here for gossip.
:Later, it is mentioned that Pink Eyes was left to watch the kits while Milkweed and Leaf went hunting.
====Path of Stars====
:Thunder is reflecting on starting his own group, and Pink Eyes is listed along with Leaf, Owl Eyes, Lightning Tail, and Milkweed as loyal and brave cats. Soon after, he gives a thrush to Thistle and Clover, letting the youngsters eat, and that he can wait. Thunder then notices how skinny the old tom looks and offers him a mouse.
:Milkweed asks Thunder if she should make Pink Eyes a new bed, but he grunts and says that he can make his own, but she still helps him.
:Clover asks if Lightning Tail can teach her how to climb trees, and Pink Eyes tells her that they are not squirrels. Thistle replies and says that it does not mean that they cannot climb. Pink Eyes licks his forepaws and says that he will not take the blame if they were to fall out and twist their tail. Thunder is concerned that Milkweed would worry about Pink Eyes having a dry nest, and not caring for her kits. Clover scents Owl Eyes coming. She says that she could nearly smell as well as Pink Eyes, and Pink Eyes agrees. Lightning Tail is concerned that Clear Sky is out to start another fight, but Pink Eyes asks why he would, if there was nothing to fight over.
:Pink Eyes is seen sitting at the edge of the clearing after the rogues ambushed Lightning Tail's patrol. He flicks his tail and say there will always be rogues. Owl Eyes then paws the ground next to him in frustration. Owl Eyes goes to show Pink Eyes the new route to the top of the cliff. Pink Eyes argues that he can still manage the old route. Owl Eyes tells him that his eyesight is getting worse, and that one wrong leap and he could fall. He snorts and says that he can see well enough to jump down a few ledges.
:Thunder notes that Milkweed is kind to everyone, since she picked stale moss from Pink Eyes' nest each morning, and joined every patrol. Owl Eyes and Pink Eyes break the silence of climbing the ravine as they stare off the cliff. He is complaining that he can do it, and asks Thunder if he is going hunting. After Violet says that she would be happy to see Dawn and Moss again, Pink Eyes asks if they were the rogues with kits. Thunder tells Pink Eyes that he does not think that there will be any trouble.
:As Lightning Tail and Leaf pace besides the entrance, Pink Eyes is seen huddled beside Owl Eyes. Pink Eyes blinks through the forest on their way to the four trees, and it looks as though he is straining to see through the shadows.

====Moth Flight's Vision====
:When Moth Flight and Micah enter the ThunderClan camp, they realize it is empty. Cloud Spots tells them that everyone is out hunting. Pink Eyes comes out of his den and tells them that he was not. Moth Flight wonders if the tom is blind now, as he is squinting to see, and she hastily introduces herself to him. He tells her that she does not need to tell him who she is, as cats were gossiping about her talking about spirit cats. Moth Flight is uneasy by the fact that cats were gossiping about her. Pink Eyes goes on, saying that she told Cloud Spots to be their medicine cat, and that he is told to eat herbs all day. He mutters that he cannot cure his old age. Cloud Spots calls out to him that he will try, and Pink Eyes tells him that he would rather have a vole every day.
:Snail Shell and Apple Blossom charge out of their dens excitedly. Pink Eyes reacts by rolling his eyes, saying that he did not get a moment of peace. Cloud Spots teases the tom by reminding him about kit-watching. Pink Eyes grunts that he would feel more useful making Gooseberry and Yew Tail feel more welcome, and that both kits do not need him anymore. When Moth Flight goes see the kits, Micah offers to keep Pink Eyes company. Pink Eyes wonders how a young tom would be interested. Later, Cloud Spots comments that Pink Eyes may be half-blind, but his hearing is sharp. Moth Flight returns to Micah and finds him lying next to Pink Eyes, listening to a story about a squirrel. When the medicine cats eventually leave, they call to Cloud Spots to take care of Pink Eyes.

====Thunderstar's Echo====
:Pink Eyes is first seen arguing with Leaf over prey, until Thunderstar breaks it up. That night, Thunderstar mentions that other than Pink Eyes' snoring, the Clan was quiet. During the dog attack, Pink Eyes is guided to safety by Lightning Tail. Later, when Thunderstar tells the Clan of Lightning Tail's death, Pink Eyes speaks up, saying he was a generous cat and made sure he was always fed.
====Shadowstar's Life====
:Pink Eyes is shocked that Windstar, leader of WindClan, would turn her back on SkyClan's growing problems with Twolegs invading their territory. The white ThunderClan warrior mews that no Clan should turn their back on another, and his mews are met with agreeing yowls from Windstar's own daughter, Moth Flight, who says that there must be five Clans.
