## Creation

In *The* *Powerpuff Girls*, the girls were created by Professor Utonium. Initially only meant to be created out of "sugar, spice, and everything nice", the Professor accidentally added Chemical X to the concoction after his then lab assistant, Jojo (later to become the evil villain Mojo Jojo), shoved him into a nearby bottle of the mysterious liquid, thus granting the ensuing girls with their superpowers. After the events of *The* *Powerpuff Girls Movie*, the Powerpuff Girls "dedicated their lives to fighting crime and the forces of evil" in the city of Townsville, USA and saving the world before bedtime.

In *Powerpuff Girls Z*, Ken (Utonium's son) uses Chemical Z to destroy a giant glacier caused by global climate change. However, the impact of Chemical Z caused several black and white lights to appear in the Tokyo sky. Three ordinary girls, Momoko Akatsutsumi ("Hyper" Blossom), Miyako Gotokuji ("Rolling" Bubbles), and Kaoru Mastubara ("Powered" Buttercup), became engulfed in white lights and were transformed into the Powerpuff Girls Z. During the anime, the girls most often fight people, animals, and objects affected by the black lights and Him's black particles.

## Appearance in *The Powerpuff Girls*

The Powerpuff Girls are drawn almost completely out of round and soft shapes (except Buttercup) having sharp edges in her design, which contrasts to the primarily blocky and angular locations and characters within the original series. They wear small dresses with a black stripe across the middle, frilly white panties, white tights and black strapped Mary Jane shoes. They have large eyes, oval-shaped heads, stubby arms and legs, and, although they are able to hear, smell, touch, and hold, have no necks, noses, ears, fingers, or toes (often joked about in the series).

They stand 2' 3" and whether they actually have the aforementioned features or not is not fully clear; in the episode "Criss Cross Crisis," when the Girls switch bodies with other people in Townsville, Buttercup, who had swapped bodies with Professor Utonium, complained that her hand did not work when trying to pick up the phone (meaning that the girls' fingerless hands could pick things up at will.) However, in the same episode, Bubbles, in the Mayor's body, is seen using a toothbrush without trouble, and the characters who are in the girls' bodies have no issue holding objects. In the episode "Curses," all three of the girls play "rock-scissors-paper," and can apparently distinguish who chose what. Additionally, Bubbles counts on her unseen fingers in the episode "Mo Job" and Buttercup snaps her fingers in "Boogie Frights." However, in "Oops, I Did It Again," the Professor dreams of normal versions of the girls, "The Run-of-the-Mill Girls," each with the features clearly.

## Former/Honorary Team Members

### Bunny

*Main article: Bunny*
In the episode "Twisted Sister," the girls created a fourth Powerpuff Girl named **Bunny** in order to ease the burden of saving the town by themselves. Bunny was voiced by the late Christine Cavanaugh. Unlike her predecessors, she was created by the girls using imitation objects of those which gave the girls life (artificial sweetener instead of sugar, dirt, and twigs instead of spices, and what the girls considered to be "everything nice," which included "a knuckle sandwich" by Buttercup).

While she possessed the same powers as the girls and a similar color theme (having purple eyes and a purple dress to match), her appearance is rather abnormal (due to the use of imitation ingredients). She was much larger (both in height and weight) than her predecessors, had horribly crooked teeth and was noticeably deformed. She was also extremely naïve which led to her oversimplifying her sisters orders, thus when she confronted two cops taking in a couple of crooks who were brandishing guns, she beat up the cops and threw them in jail as the criminals were technically the ones in danger, and promptly started to release other criminals, thinking they were good. As a result of her mishaps, the girls send Bunny away, only to be confronted by every convict Bunny released throughout the episode. To redeem herself and save the girls, she defeats every criminal herself. However, due to the instability of her composition, she explodes at the end of the brawl, leaving behind only a piece of her dress.

### Bullet

*Main article: Bullet*
**Bullet** is a squirrel who Bubbles saved and then later was given Chemical X by Bubbles in order to overcome the lethal injuries she had been given by a hawk. As a result, she gained the powers of the Powerpuff Girls and is currently the protector of Townsville woods. She appeared in the episodes Stray Bullet and The City of Nutsville.

### Dexter

*Main article: Dexter*
In the comics "Super Secret Crisis War!" and "Powerpuff Girls: Super Smash-Up!," the girls gained a non-Powerpuff Girl named **Dexter** (the main character of Dexter's Laboratory). He is a boy genius who has a secret laboratory next to his bedroom. His intelligence makes him the brains of the family.

He is always working on new inventions and creations every day, but his hyperactive yet cute and lovely big sister Dee Dee is always breaking into his lab and destroying his work. The plots of this show mainly revolve around his relationship with his sister and everything that happens between the two. He is currently being voiced by Candi Milo and was formerly being voiced by Christine Cavanaugh before she retired. He has made several cameo appearances throughout The Powerpuff Girls series (alongside other characters like Quackor and Dee Dee)

## Criminal History

Although the Powerpuff Girls are the main heroes, there are a few incidents where they broke the law. In the episode Powerpuff Bluff, they broke out of jail to fight the crooks.
