== Background ==
She first appears in Season Thirteen’s “Jungle Fever", where she's the new kid in town. Robyn became friends with Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman, and Kenny McCormick after the boys found out that she was the niece of their old friend, Chef.

She is shown to have sympathy for others. An example that supports this is in “The Pandemic Special” where Stan breaks down crying and Robyn pats him on the back.
In the same episode, she grew homesick after finding out that she had to be quarantined in the school with the other students. This is due to the fact that the “teachers” shot Tolkien.
Robyn is shown to get distracted easily. In a deleted scene from “Stunning and Brave”, when her phone rings, she immediately started to sing the ringtone that was being played, which was I Wonder, by Kanye West. PC Principal took her phone afterwards.

=== Stan Marsh ===
Stan and Robyn are very good friends. Out of the four boys, Stan has an amazing connection with Robyn. They never had a problem with each other and are both shown to have a lot in common. Both are huge animal lovers and have an aptitude for music as shown in many episodes. 
Stan often tries to convince Robyn to get Wendy to forgive him whenever he does something “bad”; Robyn accepts, but only because she thinks that they’re a cute couple. 
In “Band in China”, Robyn thought of Stan’s rock band, 𝐶𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝐷𝑎𝑤𝑛, to be good for him since he was feeling down about living in his family farm. The two are almost like siblings.

=== Eric Cartman ===
Even though Robyn disagrees with the bad decisions Cartman has done, she has shown a liking to them. Cartman seems to have a fondness of Robyn, just like his fondness of Chef. Though, like he does to many, Cartman tends to rip on Robyn.

Cartman is more racist towards Tolkien than he is to Robyn (he does have his moments). Robyn doesn’t like how racist he is towards other people of color. However, she agrees with some of his ‘racial stereotypes.’ 
She joined Coon and Friends (and stayed in the group) before officially being Freedom Pals. During a battle, when her and Cartman are together, Robyn comments positively on Cartman’s attacks. 
Though the two are friends, Cartman still rips off on her; they’re relationship is like Kyle and Cartman, but not as bad.

In South Park: Post Covid, Robyn attends Kenny’s funeral along with others who Kenny has known. This can infer that she still cares for Kenny as a friend. 
Robyn was shown to be terrified by Kenny’s deaths. She attends Kenny’s funeral in “Sexual Healing” and was shocked to find out about his passing. This also happened when Kenny died out of nowhere in “The Poor Kid” after a giant reptilian bird starts to attack him.

=== Craig Tucker ===
In “Jungle Fever”, Craig thought Robyn wasn’t real after Clyde said that he saw a “hot girl”. When seeing her for the first time, Craig asks Robyn if she knows Clyde, which she answers yes; He then tells her that Clyde has a crush on her. 
Later in the episode, Robyn takes a burgundy sweater from Craig (while Clyde took one from Tolkien) that said “𝐼 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑚𝑦 𝑚𝑎𝑛." After Clyde gets rejected, Craig comforts and pats Robyn on the back, telling her that Clyde will be okay. 
Generally, Craig and Robyn seem to get along for the most part. In a deleted scene of “Tweek x Craig”, Robyn tries to get the attention away from Craig and Tweek by telling the Asian Girls that she’s bisexual. Later in the episode, she supports the relationship.

In the aftermath, Robyn shows up to school the next day and asks Clyde if she wanted to go to Taco Bell, which he accepts. 
Despite that episode, the two have been on better terms in later seasons. In some episodes, they sit next to each other at the lunch table with the boys. 
The relationship has been going on ever since, up until Season 17, where Robyn develops a crush on Clyde in “The Hobbit”. She was shown to be jealous the entire episode after finding out that Clyde was dating Lisa Berger. In a deleted scene, she tells the main boys how Clyde deserves so much better. Kenny immediately jumps to the conclusion that Robyn likes Clyde, causing Robyn to blush.

In South Park: Not Suitable For Children, she knew Clyde didn’t have any Cred, but didn’t say anything because of the embarrassment he’d get. 
=== Tolkien Black ===
The two rarely have interactions. However, they are seen in a group most of the time. 
In South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Robyn yells out racist comments towards Tolkien during Civil War. This could be out of anger though, or she was just playing along the part. 
In “The Big Fix”, Robyn thought Tolkien’s name was Token, just like Stan. However, she thought his name meant the coins as Tolkien was rich. 
=== Jimmy Valmer ===
Robyn and Jimmy have had one-on-one reactions, similar to Butters and him. They are seen to be good friends as both are loyal and friendly towards each other.

Wendy even tried to convince Robyn to date Clyde in “Jungle Fever”, though at the time Robyn had no interest in Clyde. Robyn has assisted Wendy in a few episodes, like in “Insheeption”, where she comforts Wendy after she saw Stan’s messy locker. 
There are times where Robyn is on Wendy’s side. In “The Hobbit”, Robyn thought photoshop was ruining how people look in person, just like how Wendy described it to be. Robyn also knew that she was already pretty, so there was no need for photoshopping herself anyway.

At the beginning of “Splatty Tomato”, Robyn got annoyed by Heidi’s attitude once more. However, at the end of the episode, Robyn started to realize why Heidi was acting the way she was. 
In later seasons, they don’t interact. 
=== Other Girls ===
In Season 20, Robyn felt as if she was forced to join the girls because of the whole SkankHunt42 thing. She thought it was unnecessary for them to break up with their boyfriends. 
Other than Wendy, Robyn also shows a liking to Nichole and Annie as they are both kind and aren’t like the other girls.
