**Temmie** (/ˈtɛ.miː/) is a species of monster in the Underground. They appear as a unique enemy in Waterfall, residents of Temmie Village, and the vendor of Tem Shop.

Contrary to popular belief, killing Temmie accrues EXP and is considered a kill by the game, which will cause a True Pacifist Route attempt to fail.

## Profile

### Appearance

Temmies are very smart and can play tic tac toe with you

Temmie Chang says that Betty Kwong designed Tem originally. Temmie liked the doodle so much that she used it as a mascot for years until it made an appearance in *Undertale*.

### Personality

Temmies are very sweet and can battle you. the secret code to keep temmie as a pet is TeMmIeHooI and he will give u superpowers and will be your forever pet

## In Battle

### Attacks

* One of Temmie's attacks is a tall Temmie shape that stumbles about on the Bullet Board; the protagonist must remain underneath (or above if out of legs) to avoid taking damage. In the attack, Temmie sluggishly tracks the protagonist's movements, so care must be taken not to move too fast, or she will move off the board entirely, resulting in unavoidable damage.
	+ If Temmie is denied Temmie Flakes, Temmie will get annoyed and exclaim "Can't blame a bark for tryin...." Afterward, the SOUL will appear in front of the attack Temmie, and damage can only be avoided by quickly moving to the top of the Bullet Board (the head is harmless; only the legs and body deal damage).
* Temmie's secondary attack involves elongating one of her legs in an attempt to wrap it around the protagonist's SOUL. This attack can be avoided by tracing the edges of the Bullet Board until the SOUL is in the middle, and the leg will contract.

### Strategy

* To spare Temmie, the protagonist must talk to her or feed her Temmie Flakes.
* Flexing at Temmie results in her departure and is soon replaced by Aaron. Notably, this Aaron can be spared by flexing once as opposed to thrice.
* Sparing Temmie using any method will reward yellow text in the True Pacifist Ending Credits.

## Trivia

* Temmie Chang is the name of one of the main artists who worked on the game, who makes a cameo in the game through the character.
* Temmie was originally a doodle of Temmie Chang, created as a joke by Betty Kwong. Its appearance was based on Temmie's likes, interests, and personality traits.
* With their strange speech patterns, nonsensical village and alien demeanor, the Temmies seem inspired by Mr. Saturn of the Mother series. It is believed that Temmies speak in broken English out of choice, as they appear to have the ability to talk normally.

* If one idles long enough without taking any action against Temmie or using any items, Temmie's face will vibrate away from her main sprite. This resets if an attack begins.
* The Temmies goofy demeanor and pattern of speaking is probably a reference to the "lolrandom" style of humor and stereotypically exhibited speech pattern by young teenagers over the Internet.
* In the game files, Temmie has unused overworld walking sprites.
* Temmie does not appear to tell the story of Asriel Dreemurr in New Home.
* As of patch v1.001, Temmie's ATK and DEF are replaced with "*RATED TEM OUTTA TEM.*"
* The Temmies speak in a similar manner to how Chip and Dale speak like in the Chip and Dale 2: Rescue Rangers NES game.
* If the fallen human is named "*Temmie*" Temmie Flakes will heal 5 HP instead of the normal 2 HP.
	+ This, however, was removed in a later patch.
* According to one Temmie in Temmie Village, and the text from checking Temmie, the protagonist is allergic to Temmies. This is contradictory however since the protagonist can interact with them without suffering a reaction.
	+ It is also implied that some Temmies are also allergic to Temmies, which explains why the one and only Temmie on the far-right was seen with hives, which the affected Temmie quirkily names "hOIVS!"
* When Temmie does her attack where she stretches out her arm, if they player were to quickly try to feed her Temmie Flakes, and they say no before her entire arm recoils, Temmie's normal face with her other one will be on her at the exact same time.
