## Biography

Scrappy is first seen harassing the gang in the Mystery Machine, bragging about how he will fight ghosts and monsters. Fred angrily tells him he has told him before ghosts do not exist (referencing the fact that the versions of the show Scrappy is in by portraying real supernatural creatures as commonplace). Scrappy argues that ghosts do exist and when he finds them, he'll give them a dose of his "puppy power" and he then accidentally urinates on Daphne, giving a long hot stream of yellow pee on her as he sighs with relief, demonstrating his puppy power, much to Daphne's disgust. When Scrappy realizes this, he gasps in shock and Fred immediately stops the Mystery Machine, sending Scrappy flying into the windscreen. **As he slides off, Fred angrily scolds him for urinating on Daphne. After fixing himself, Scrappy furiously crosses his arms and irritably states it was an accident, but Fred furiously calls his bluff and angrily accuses him of marking his territory. Scrappy angrily tells him he isn't worthy of being the team leader. He then demands that the gang appoints him as the new leader or else he'll leave. Scrappy is then unceremoniously thrown out of the van in the middle of the desert along with his suitcase, with no one giving a second thought (not even Scooby). The puppy hollers out to them they can't do this since people adore him (which is not exactly true). He then angrily kicks his suitcase in frustration and anger and painfully hurts his foot. Scrappy says he's as cute as "a Powerpuff Girl" and that he'll get his own TV show as he sits on his suitcase, alone and friendless. However after this, Scrappy plotted revenge against his former friends.** Several years later, Scrappy traveled to the Spooky Island theme park resort, under the pretense of audtioning for an evil elf character. He abducted the park's owner, Emile Mondavarious, and locked him up in a hole. He then built an android duplicate of him and impersonated him with it. He then met and teamed up with an insane man named N' Goo Tuana and a masked wrestler named Zarkos. Scrappy and his allies summoned an army of monstrous purple demons with a pyramid object called the Daemon Ritus. Scrappy planned to command the purple demons to help him enslave the world (this was probably to get back at Scooby and the others) but the monsters die when exposed to sunlight, so they possessed humans to become immune to sunlight while Scrappy and his gang stole the humans' souls, converted them into protoplasm and kept them in a cauldron in a cave beneath the island. After Scrappy absorbs the souls, he would become a powerful monster known as **Scrappy Rex**. **He needed a pure soul in order to complete his transformation and become unstoppable. He invited his uncle Scooby (because he had a pure soul), and also invited his friends to Spooky Island so they could witness Scrappy's triumph. He greeted the gang in his Mondavarious disguise and told them the case details. He later greeted the gang in his Mondavarious disguise again that night during a party when the demons attacked. Scrappy left with the demons and they captured many people including Fred and Velma, however Shaggy rescued them. Eventually Scrappy's minions captured Scooby and brought him to him.** While Scrappy was still in his Mondavarious disguise, he asked Scooby to be a sacrificed to which he agreed. During this, Shaggy, Daphne, Velma and Fred figured out Mondavarious was behind the plot and went to rescue Scooby. Scrappy's minions captured Fred and Velma and Scrappy, in his Mondavarious disguise used the Daemon Ritus and absorbed some souls. He was about to absorb Scooby's soul when suddenly, Shaggy jumped on the claw holding it and released it. Shaggy knocked Scrappy's robot and Fred and Velma approached it, the Daemon Ritus melted into the Mondavarious bot, and here Scrappy finally revealed himself. With the Daemon Ritus stuck to his chest, Scrappy morphed into a giant monster and knocked Fred and Velma aside. **He then chased Scooby and Shaggy until he finally had them cornered. He then managed to capture Scooby after Shaggy's girlfriend Mary Jane, possessed by a demon, brings him over. Scooby orders his nephew to sit down and pokes him in his nose, causing Scrappy to roar in anger and take him over to the Pinscher to extract his protoplasm. However, Zarkos falls over the vat after his fight with Daphne (who pushed him in), releasing the people's protoplasm to their bodies, returning to their body while the demons exploded from being exposed to the sunlight reflection on the skeleton disco ball. Refusing to admit defeat, Scrappy goes ballistic and tells Fred and Velma their fight isn't over and he'll still kill them, but Shaggy controls the claw and pulls the Daemon Ritus out of his chest, returning Scrappy to his normal form. Scrappy faces Scooby, telling him he can still take him and he challenges him to a rematch, but an annoyed Scooby easily whacks Scrappy into a wall.** Scrappy and his henchmen are then arrested and taken to prison as police helicopters arrive on the island, with a humiliated Scrappy being taken away in a dog cage by the police officer. His last words to the gang are, "And I would have gotten away with it, too! If not for you meddling sons of--", only to be cut off by a police officer shutting the door as the puppy continues to rant and rave. The gang are in shock over Scrappy almost saying the bad word (also wondering where he heard it), but the subject is immediately changed with the news people talking to the gang again. **It's currently unknown what happened to Scrappy and his henchmen in the end, but they most likely remained in prison for life.**

## Personality

Scrappy is characterized by extreme arrogance and egomania, believing he could overpower any opponents with his "puppy power". He is also very blasphemous, manipulative, and disrespectful towards the gang and frequently mocked them, calling them "losers" (and later, even trying to call them "meddling sons of--", but was cut off before he could finish). His insistence that ghosts were real, coupled with his obnoxious and detestable behavior, annoyed Mystery, Inc. to no end, culminating with Scrappy arrogantly demanding that they appoint him their "unquestioned" leader or else he would leave, foolishly believing that they valued his company, when in reality, they would gladly take the chance to get rid of him (even his own *uncle*). This led to his abandonment, which would cause his downward spiral into outright villainy. **As a villain, Scrappy shows no problem with committing murder and kidnapping and was perfectly happy to consume the souls of thousands (perhaps millions or trillions) of innocent people in order to increase his own power, kill *Mystery, Inc*., and rule the world with his army of monsters. Upon assuming the form of Scrappy Rex, he becomes even more brutal, arrogant, and insensitive, and even after his defeat, he still insists that he could kill the gang, only to be quickly overpowered (though his ego was not damaged in the slightest).** In the cartoons, Scrappy is also egotistical, tough-acting, and overconfident, though not as obnoxious and to a much lesser extent, and is also more judicious, analytical, and intelligent, sometimes proving to be an even better sleuth than most of the gang, with the possible exception of Velma. He also idolizes Scooby, and is firmly loyal to the group, often courageously (or brazenly) standing up for them when they were being attacked. How Scrappy went from cocky but heroic to obnoxious and demanding (then villainous and cruel) is unknown, though perhaps in the cartoons, he never became a villain and/or something really terrible happened to him — or was caused by him, inadvertently or otherwise — that caused the gang to stop talking about him.

## Powers and Abilities

## Info

Scrappy played the main antagonist, wanting revenge on Mystery Inc. for abandoning him years earlier. While in a bar reminiscing, Velma tells another patron that Scrappy was not a puppy, but rather had a glandular disorder. In the course of the film, it is revealed that he is seeking to summon a demon army that he can use to rule the world. By abducting Emile Mondavarious, the owner of Spooky Island, and imprisoning him, he disguises himself in a robot version of Mondavarious to control the island and with the ritual requiring him to absorb a purely good soul to unleash the full power of his army, with Scrappy selecting Scooby as the final sacrifice. However, his ego causes him to call in the rest of the Mystery Inc. crew to witness his triumph despite them having gone their separate ways two years ago, with the gang rallying to defeat Scrappy's plan and save Scooby by disrupting the ritual. At the conclusion of the film, Velma says that Scrappy's full name is Scrappy Cornelius Doo.

Scrappy played a decidedly negative and darker role as the main villain, wanting revenge on Mystery Inc. for abandoning him years ago: He was kicked out for continuously urinating on Daphne, being obnoxious, and the final straw was when he tried to vote himself as the leader of Mystery Inc. When Velma is talking to a guy at the bar who likes her, she tells him that Scrappy was not a puppy, but had a glandular disorder. Although he nearly succeeds in performing the 'Darkopolypse Ritual', which would give a group of demons the power to rule Earth for the next ten thousand years, his plan is foiled and he and his minions are arrested because he underestimated the Mystery Inc. team, inviting them all to the theme park where he was conducting the ritual after they broke up years before simply to make them witness his triumph when he only needed Scooby present, intending to use of An Scooby's-'Pure' Soul to Complete His Ritual. At the conclusion of the film, Velma says that Scrappy's full name is Scrappy Cornelius Doo. This U-turn in Scrappy's character could be a reference to the first film in the *Mission Impossible* series, in which long-famous hero Jim Phelps (the original hero in the original *Mission Impossible* television series) became a traitor and the film's main villain after finally becoming disillusioned with his work, and was shockingly revealed as the main villain at the climax of the film.
