Bunny was the created short-lived sister of the Powerpuff Girls. She was shown only once in "Twisted Sister". The Powerpuff Girls each have a unique ingredient for her; sugar, spice, and everything nice. Just as each of the other Powerpuff Girls has a signature color, hers is a light shade of purple.
She is voiced by the late Christine Cavanaugh who also voice Bud Smith from The Powerpuff Girls episode "Supper Villain" and "Just Desserts" and Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory.
Background[]
Personality[]
She is rather dimwitted and has trouble understanding simple things. While Blossom was telling her about crime-fighting, she spaced out a bit. She misunderstood her sisters' orders to defeat villains and instead beat up cops.
She doesn't talk much aside from mumbling, and as such, it can be hard to understand what she's saying. She speaks in the third person and her grammar is quite poor.
Despite all this, she is well-meaning and friendly. She gave her sisters a big hug after they introduced themselves to her. She flew off in tearful remorse after the girls scolded her for what she had done. Despite them disowning her, she still went back to save them when they were at the mercy of many escaped convicts.
Physical appearance[]
Bunny, unlike the Powerpuff Girls, who are short and stubby, is large and tall. She also has messy, brown hair tied in a ponytail by a black hair-twister, purple eyes, bright peach skin, and wears a purple dress with a black stripe, white stockings, and black Mary Jane shoes.
Powers and abilities[]
Her special superpower is "Earthquake", as she is capable of causing earthquakes while jumping.This was shown when she knocked her sisters to the ground with her jumps, as her jumps caused great tremors in the ground. This is possibly because she has a large and tall size. Bunny also has the ability to fly, as do his sisters. Bunny's abilities other than those two used are unknown.
Role in the episode[]
Twisted Sister[]
In the episode "Twisted Sister", the Girls created a fourth Powerpuff Girl named Bunny to ease the burden of saving the town by themselves.
The girls were too overworked for the day, so they sneak into the lab to create a fourth Powerpuff Girl. 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, what the girls considered to be "everything nice"), and Chemical X added "accidentally" along with the beaker containing it. While she possessed the same powers as the girls and a similar color theme (having purple eyes and a purple dress to match), she has a hunch back, a stray tooth, big lips and a raggedy brown ponytail, unlike the Powerpuff Girls. She couldn't speak in complete English, so Bubbles gave her the name Bunny (although Buttercup named her Braces at first, because of her crooked teeth, much to Blossom's disapproval). Bunny wants to please her sisters/creators, but her size and weight don't help. However, despite her physical and mental abnormality, they let Bunny join them in fighting crime. When they started their usual day of crime-fighting, she thought that having a gun made a person a criminal, and when she alone saw and alone confronted two cops taking in two crooks and brandishing guns, she threw the cops into jail and started to release criminals, thinking they were good people.
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, after defeating the criminals, she exploded in a flash of light due to her instability. After which, a piece of her dress fell to the ground as the girls kneeled to it in mourning.

Trivia[]
- Like her sisters/creators, Bunny appear to have a unique ability: she is able to cause earthquakes while jumping.
- The Professor has never interacted with Bunny before.
- It's possible that the reason she was born unstable was that the girls used artificial ingredients which were the artificial sweetener instead of sugar. Twigs and dirt instead of spices, random items that were "nice", and the fake "accident" of putting in the whole beaker of Chemical X.
- Bunny is somewhat similar to a Marvel comics superhero, The Incredible Hulk, mainly due to her speaking in third person and her super strength.
- Bunny was shown to have ears, unlike the PPG who don't appear to have any.
- She does Blossom's signature pose at the end of the episode as the narrator declares that she has saved the day once.
- In Powerpuff Girls Z, Duchess Morbucks is based slightly on Bunny's character. She also has brunette hair, purple eyes, and outfit.
