Funky

Funky (ファンキー Fankii) is a green ghost from Pac-Mania, and is related to Spunky.
In the Japanese versions of Pac-Mania, Funky is referred to as "Common".
==History==
=== Pac-Mania ===
At first, Funky appears as a standard ghost who huddles around Sue most of the time. Funkys never enter a 'scatter' position, as they always use Pac-Man as their target. Starting in Sandbox Land however, Funkys are given the ability to jump. Whenever Pac-Man jumps, Funky will jump with him, though not as high; a well-timed jump will allow Pac-Man to jump over them.
=== Namco Museum Vol. 5 ===
Funky appears in the Pac-Mania room, bouncing on a couch. If the player eats a Power Pellet, he will flee alongside Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde.
=== Pac-Man 256 ===
Funky returns in Pac-Man 256, alongside Spunky. Funky appears in groups of four, in which the group moves back and forth, stopping upon bumping into the maze walls. They do not directly attack Pac-Man, but move very fast.
=== The Sandbox Evolution ===
Funky's behavior in The Sandbox Evolution is similar to their appearance in Pac-Man 256, except he can now appear as a lone ghost. Like before, Funky will move in one direction horizontally until he hits a wall, in which he'll start moving in the opposite direction.
== Possible other appearances ==
These games feature a green ghost similar to Funky, but are not 100% confirmed to be him, as they do not refer to the ghost by name. It is possible they are merely generic green ghosts with no relation to Funky.
=== Pac-Man World ===
In the cutscene played when a new save file is created, a green ghost (referred to as Sentry Ghost in storyboards) catches Pac-Man traveling towards Ghost Island. He alerts Toc-Man, before nervously passing Pac-Man off as an impersonator of Toc-Man. It is then revealed that the ghosts, who intended to capture Pac-Man, accidentally kidnapped Ms. Pac-Man instead.
In Pac-Man World Re-Pac, the green ghost is replaced with Inky.
=== Pac-Man Vs. ===
The fourth ghost member is green, and is controlled by Player 4. Mario simply refers to them as "Green" when commentating.
=== Pac-Man Tilt ===
Alongside Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde, an unnamed green ghost appears, with slight resemblance to Funky.
==Trivia==
*Various ports of the original Pac-Man game may have a member of the Ghost Gang, typically Clyde, be replaced with a green ghost.
**This is also the case for Baby Pac-Man (a game which predates Funky's creation), in which a green ghost replaces Clyde
*On certain promotional material for Pac-Mania, Funky is identified as the "Jumping Monster" (ジャンピングモンスター Janpingu Monsutā).
* Funky's relationship with Spunky is inconsistent, as some sources, such as promotional flyers, state that they are siblings, while others state that they are cousins, like the manual for Pac-Mania on the NES.[1]"Spunky (Black): 'Funky's Cousin'." - Pac-Mania (NES) manual, page 3 (PDF source)"For the record, the gray one is SPUNKY, the older brother, and the green one is the younger brother." - Arcade Archives Pac-Mania
