## TV Tropes Website Info

**Rainbow Kate**

**Voiced By:** Kara Edwards

Due to her brain being constantly doused in cake, Rainbow Kate is assumed to be stupid by the other Shoppies, especially Donatina. She believes that no one will take her seriously because a few people don't treat her with any respect. She is seen to be caring for other contestants, as shown when she spared Buncho Bananas and is empathetic, showing that in that same episode she noticed that Buncho Bananas misses Bianca Banana. She also appears to be one of the smartest Shoppies as she used scientific proof to try to convince Donatina that she isn’t stupid. However, she has slow reflexes and didn't know that snow and gasoline create glue. Overall, Rainbow Kate is a rational person who seems more sympathetic to her fellow Shopkins than most other competitors.

* **Arch-Nemesis:** Donatina.
* **Berserk Button:** She hates when people don't take her seriously because of what she is.
* **Cool Big Sis:** Serves as a sort of older sister figure to the other Shoppies.
* **The Friend Nobody Likes:** Rainbow Kate is constantly judged by her peers, solely because she is a Rainbow Cake. Despite that, she keeps trying to prove herself to them, especially Donatina.
* **Nice Girl:** Generally friendly and empathetic as long as you don't get on her bad side.
* **The Smart Girl:** Actually pretty intelligent and rational-minded compared to...about ninety-percent of the cast, but no one takes her seriously solely because she's a rainbow cake and the cake is apparently messing with her brain.
