Disney'sLilo & Stitch is an American science fictionmedia franchise that began in 2002 withthe animated film of the same name written and directed byChris Sanders andDean DeBlois. The franchise, which consists of four animated films, three animated television series, alive-action adaptation, and several other spin-offs, is noted for its unusual and eclectic cast of fictional characters, both human and alien.

Stitch (Experiment 626) is one of the twotitle characters of theLilo & Stitch franchise. Originally anillegal genetic experiment created by mad alien scientist Dr. Jumba Jookiba to cause chaos across thegalaxy, he is marked by his short temper and mischievous behavior (traits that endear him to his friend Lilo, who adopted him as her "dog"). He is voiced by his creator and the film's co-writer and co-director,Chris Sanders, in all official media, except theStitch! anime andStitch & Ai, where he is voiced byBen Diskin.^[1][2]

Lilo Pelekai (/ˈliːloʊ/LEE-loh) (literally,"lost" inHawaiian^[3]) is one of the two title characters of the franchise. She is a youngNativeHawaiian girl who lives on the island ofKauaʻi with her older sisterNani and her extended family of alien visitors marooned onEarth. She is voiced byDaveigh Chase in all the films andLilo & Stitch: The Series, exceptLilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch where she was voiced byDakota Fanning due to scheduling conflicts on Chase's part.^[4][5] Inthe 2025 live-action film, Lilo is portrayed by newcomerMaia Kealoha.^[6]

Lilo is a young girl with long, straight black hair and brown eyes. She is most often seen wearing amuʻumuʻu andsandals, but also wears other warm-weather clothing as well as traditionalhula costumes. InLilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch; her reflection in a mirror is compared to a picture of her young mother, suggesting that they look similar. In the episode "Skip" where an experiment (Experiment 089) is used to skip timeten then another ten years, it is mentioned that older Lilo looks a lot like her sister Nani.

Her spirited and highlyeccentric personality, especially in light of her parents' death, has alienated her from her fellow children, yet Lilo makes the perfect best friend for Stitch, an alien experiment whom she adopts as her dog. Lilo attendshula school and herhobbies include thephotography of tourists (especially obese people), talking about creatures from horror/sci-fi movies, and rehabilitating Jumba's experiments. In "Swapper", she meetsVictoria, who turns out to have similar personalities to her and she becomes Lilo's only human friend.

Lilo is also known for being a passionatefan ofElvis Presley; this trait of hers is based onLilo & Stitch director/writerChris Sanders being a fan of Presley himself.^[7]

Lilo's parents died in a car accident some time beforeLilo & Stitch (it is suggested that rain made road conditions treacherous), and they have not appeared in the series apart from three photographs: one of Lilo, Nani, and their parents having a picnic on the beach, a photograph of Lilo's mother winning the Hula contest at her school's May Day celebration, and a photo of Nani with her parents when she graduated to intermediate Hula.

Lilo's mother is depicted as kind and loving (and perhaps eccentric like her younger daughter), as well as an excellent hula dancer. She would placate her children by holding a family night, singing lullabies, and making up funnyconstellations. Lilo's father played theukulele and was the one who coined the phraseʻOhana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. Lilo loves and misses her parents very much; she keeps a picture of them under her pillow and initially would not allow Stitch to touch it.

The development of Lilo'sʻohana (extended family) begins with the adoption of Stitch inLilo & Stitch. Though Lilo technically owns Stitch by Hawaiian state law, the relationship between the two is more like siblings and best friends. By the end of the series, Lilo's extendedʻohana includes Nani, Jumba and Pleakley, David, Cobra Bubbles, the Grand Councilwoman, Victoria, Jumba's experiments, and Mertle.

Lilo does not return as a main character in the Asian seriesStitch! andStitch & Ai. However, she appears as an adult in the third season ofStitch!.

Lilo is one of the severalDisney Animation characters who appear in the short filmOnce Upon a Studio gathering for a group photo.^[8]

In the live-action film, Lilo is portrayed similarly to her animated counterpart, albeit with some notable changes. She gets expelled from herhalau hula after shoving Mertle Edmonds off the stage during a recital, is familiar with the animal shelter where she adopts Stitch (whereas she hadn't visited there before in the original film), has a near-drowning experience after surfing with Nani and Stitch that leads to a hospital visit, saves Stitch from Jumba, and gets taken in by her next-door neighbors David Kawena and Tūtū after Nani relinquishes guardianship of her to pay for the hospital visit.

Scrump is Lilo's personalrag doll that she made herself. "She" (as Lilo treats the doll) is a green doll with a large head (which Lilo passes off by pretending that an insect laid eggs in it), mismatching button eyes and navel, an unevenly stitched mouth, and straw "hair" tied together with a pink bow. The doll is seen throughout the franchise, with Lilo often seen holding it for comfort. Stitch interacts with it on occasion, usually passively, although various merchandise and marketing material portray him as loving the doll and interacting with it frequently. Being an inanimate object, "she" does not speak, althoughNancy Cartwright voiced the doll in an episode ofLilo & Stitch: The Series when Experiment 375, also known as Phantasmo, possessed the doll.

In theStitch! anime series, it is revealed that the now-adult Lilo gave Scrump to her daughter Ani as ahand-me-down.

Nani Pelekai isLilo Pelekai's older sister andlegal guardian. She carries the burden of supporting herself and her younger sister both financially and parentally. Naturally, she is usually very busy and under a great deal of stress. Her age is not made clear, but the fact that she was made her sister's guardian suggests that she is at least eighteen years old by the time of the first film. She loves Lilo devotedly but does not always understand her. Nani often serves as a gentle voice of reason and advice in the films and show—and occasionally, not so gentle. It was Nani, in the original film, who allowed Lilo to adopt Stitch from the pound, where he had been mistaken for a dog. She is voiced byTia Carrere in the animated films andLilo & Stitch: The Series, and portrayed bySydney Elizebeth Agudong in thelive-action film.

As a result of her stress, Nani is easily aggravated by Lilo and Stitch's antics, which often interfere with her ability to find and hold a stable job. In the original film, she loses her job as a waitress at a tourist-attractinglūʻau due to Stitch attacking a disguised Pleakley (who, along with Jumba, tried to capture Stitch there with an extraterrestrialchicken drumstick). She seemingly gets a new job at a store near her house after Jumba and Stitch's fight that ends with her house's destruction, although she is never seen working there afterward. In early season one ofLilo & Stitch: The Series and inLilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, she works as a clerk at a surfboard rental hut on Lahui Beach. However, partway through the season, she gets a new job for a similar position at the Birds of Paradise Hotel.

Nani is one of the severalDisney Animation characters who appear in the short filmOnce Upon a Studio gathering for a group photo.^[8]

In the live-action film, Nani is portrayed as aType A person under considerable more stress than her animated counterpart. She is explicitly shown to have been a young professional surfer in the past (a detail which was only implied in the original film via trophies in her bedroom) and is shown to have graduatedsumma cum laude in high school. She was accepted into the marine biology program at theUniversity of California, San Diego with a full scholarship, but put it aside to take care of Lilo. She struggles to keep the house clean and stocked with food, has overdue bills, and lacks health insurance for both herself and Lilo, and is ordered by her social worker Mrs. Kekoa to correct these issues. She also initially wasn't as accepting to have Lilo adopt a pet due to their ongoing issues, but her neighbor Tūtū convinces her to have Lilo keep Stitch. As with the original film, she loses her waitress job (this time due to Stitch accidentally causing a table fire), but is eventually able to find new employment as a surfing instructor. However, when she, Lilo, and Stitch go surfing after her first shift, Jumba and Pleakley try to capture Stitch, causing the three to wipe out and Lilo to have a near-drowning experience that leads to a hospital visit. Because Nani failed to enroll health insurance for Lilo beforehand, she is forced to make a deal with Mrs. Kekoa to relinquish guardianship in order to pay for the visit. However, Mrs. Kekoa later allows David and Tūtū to adopt Lilo to prevent the sisters' separation from being a major ordeal. Lilo also gives Nani her blessing to attend UCSD, which she does after rebuilding their damaged house. She continues to visit Lilo and Stitch whenever possible by using Jumba's portal-generating gun that they took from him to go from her dorm room in San Diego to Lilo's bedroom back at her family's house onKauaʻi instantly.

Dr. Jumba Jookiba (/ˌdʒʌmbədʒuːˈkiːbə/JUM-bə joo-KEE-bəlisten^ⓘ, misspelled as Jumba Jukiba in some media) is the creator of Stitch and his "cousins." He is anoverweight, purple-and-pink-skinned alien from the planet Kweltikwan/Quelte Quan speaking in a vaguelyRussianaccent (changed to an American accent in the live-action film), with dark pink skin, a huge and mostly bald ovalish head with four yellow eyes. He has been called an "idiot scientist", but he prefers to be known as an evil genius and is in fact very outgoing and kind-hearted outside of his work. He was voiced byDavid Ogden Stiers in the films,Lilo & Stitch: The Series,Disney's Stitch: Experiment 626, andKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep,The SeriesJess Winfield in theStitch! anime andStitch & Ai,Piotr Michael inDisney Speedstorm,^[10] andZach Galifianakis in the 2025 live-action film. Galifianakis also portrays Jumba when he's disguised as a human in that film.

Jumba's greatest asset is his abnormally high IQ, hindered only by a few small and occasional lapses in memory. His penchant for creating numerous destructive, complex experiments and machinery is nearly unrivaled, and his creation 626 is proof of his genius, being nearly unbeatable, as well as one of the most formidable fighters in the galaxy. He has also completely memorized the number and technical info on every one of Stitch's "cousins" he created.

Jumba graduated from Evil Genius University with Jacques von Hämsterviel, his lab partner. Shortly afterward, it is said the two opened up a joke shop together. When Jumba became the lead scientist of Galaxy Defense Industries, the two began work on Jumba's experiments.

In the first film, Jumba is incarcerated, but later released and sent to Earth withPleakley to recapture one of his creations, Experiment 626. He was later quietly left on Earth (likely to avoid becoming a nuisance elsewhere in the galaxy) and has become a part of Lilo's extended family. After Stitch suffers glitches due to his life energy depleting inLilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, Jumba builds a new fusion chamber to recharge him, although it seemingly fails until Lilo's love for Stitch revives him. InLilo & Stitch: The Series, he assists the main duo in hunting down, capturing, and rehabilitating his genetic experiments. He is later rewarded for his efforts by getting access to his lab back inLeroy & Stitch, but by the end of the film, he willingly returns to be with Lilo and herʻohana again.

Jumba also appears in the video games of the franchise, and in other Disney crossover games likeDisney Friends,Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, orDisney Magic Kingdoms.^[9]

Jumba is one of the severalDisney Animation characters who appear in the short filmOnce Upon a Studio gathering for a group photo.^[8]

In the live-action film, Jumba is depicted in a more malevolent way and serves as the main antagonist of the film. While he still provides somecomic relief, he is primarily portrayed without any of his animated counterpart's redeeming qualities. He is much more hostile towards Pleakley, hates humans, and belittles sentimental feelings, going as far as to damage Pelekais' house and their belongings on purpose after the Grand Councilwoman calls off her deal.

Agent Wendy Pleakley (Wendell Pleakley in the live-action film), usually referred to mononymously by his surnamePleakley, works for the United Galactic Federation, and acts as its expert on Earth, when in reality he does not know much. He reluctantly becomes Jumba's partner when forced to assist the scientist in capturing Stitch, then later becomes his best friend and roommate when the two are stranded on Earth. Pleakley is voiced byThe Kids in the Hall veteranKevin McDonald in all official Western media, Ted Biaselli inStitch!,Lucien Dodge inStitch & Ai, andBilly Magnussen in the live-action film.^[11] Magnussen also portrays Pleakley when he's disguised as a human in the live-action film.^[11]

Pleakley is a thin, greenish-yellow alien with three stout legs, a wide mouth with two purple tongues (pink in the live-action film), three elongated fingers on each hand, a round bald head topped with a single small antenna that acts as ear and nose (which is actually dyed according to Experiment 199, Nosy, as it's turning prematurely orange), and one large eye in the middle of his face. His body shape and style of movement resembles the enchanted brooms fromThe Sorcerer's Apprentice sequence of Disney'sFantasia. Pleakley is shown to beeffeminate and dresses in both men's and women's clothing and often wears a wig. He usually wears his Galactic Alliance uniform on official business and an orangemuʻumuʻu while on Earth.

In "Poxy", much of the workings of Pleakley's internal system are revealed when Lilo and Stitch shrink themselves and enter it to retrieve an infectious experiment. He has no skeletal system and has an extremely small brain. In other episodes, his antenna is shown to be a sensory organ similar to a human nose and ear.

Pleakley also appears in the video games of the franchise, and in other Disney crossover games likeDisney Friends orDisney Magic Kingdoms.^[9]

Pleakley is one of the severalDisney Animation characters who appear in the short filmOnce Upon a Studio gathering for a group photo.^[8]

The live-action film's portrayal of Pleakley notably removes most of his effeminate aspects, including hiscross-dressing (the closest to this being when he wears somewhat flowery clothing while disguised as human, as well as a shower cap while bathing in a hotel bathtub) and changing his given name from "Wendy" (which is an Earth feminine name, though is implied to be a masculine name on Plorgonar as it means "brave warrior" according to his mother) to "Wendell" (which is a masculine name). Regarding the cross-dressing removal, directorDean Fleischer Camp shared concept art of Pleakley wearing a dress, simply saying, "I tried."^[12]

Gantu (/ɡæn.tuː/, derived from "gargantuan"), known asCaptain Gantu inLilo & Stitch, the end ofLeroy & Stitch, andStitch & Ai, is an extremely large and muscular alien from the ice-covered eighth planet of the Kreplok System^[14] with a gruff, militant personality. He resembles a humanoid whale with gray skin, blue eyes, and pillar-like legs, and stands twenty feet tall. He is voiced byKevin Michael Richardson in Western media,Keith Silverstein inStitch!, andRichard Epcar inStitch & Ai.^[13]

Gantu lacks any notable abilities, but his immense stature means he has strength well above any human. Aside from his lifting capacity and enormous girth, Gantu is a respected captain of the Galactic Federation and is a skilled pilot and marksman. In the first film, he is dispatched by the Grand Councilwoman to finish the job that Jumba and Pleakley failed to do. When the Grand Councilwoman and her soldiers arrived following Gantu's failure, the Grand Councilwoman retired Gantu.

InStitch! The Movie, he is hired by Dr. Hämsterviel to retrieve Jumba's first 625 experiments and ends up gettingExperiment 625 as his underling.

Throughout the followingLilo & Stitch: The Series, he works with 625 in an attempt to capture the experiments for Dr. Hämsterviel where his success at them is not large, with Lilo and Stitch successfully undoing all his work when they free the captured experiments in "Snafu". At one point, the Grand Councilwoman contacted Gantu and offered him his job back if he can help apprehend an escaped Dr. Hämsterviel. This deal was annulled when he unknowingly endangered Mertle.

InLeroy & Stitch, Gantu leaves Reuben and springs Dr. Hämsterviel from his prison where Dr. Hämsterviel createsLeroy. He later helps Lilo, Stitch, and a reformed 625 (now named "Reuben") thwart Dr. Hämsterviel and the clones of Leroy. Following the defeat of Dr. Hämsterviel and the Leroy clones, Gantu is reinstated in the Galactic Federation's armada with Reuben becoming a galley officer.

Gantu also appears in the video gamesKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep,Disney Speedstorm, andDisney Magic Kingdoms.^[15]

Gantu is absent fromthe 2025 live-action film. Although initial versions of the film's script had him included, the film's directorDean Fleischer Camp saw him as too detached from the main characters to work with the plot. He was instead substituted with a more villainous Jumba.

Mildred Pearl "Mertle" Edmonds is Lilo's main rival. She is voiced by Miranda Paige Walls in the original film andLilo & Stitch: Trouble in Paradise,^[16] then byLiliana Mumy in the following sequels and television series.^[17]

Mertle is established as ahālau hula classmate of Lilo's at the beginning ofLilo & Stitch, where she is introduced as apopular girl and the leader of aclique composed of herself and three other girls—Yuki, Elena, and Teresa—in the hālau. Mertle calls Lilo "Weirdlo" and refuses to include her in the girls' activities. Mertle and the other girls express fear and disgust of Lilo and her things, such as her doll Scrump andStitch. Mertle takes great pleasure in putting down, insulting, bullying, and making fun of Lilo, in which Lilo sometimes responds (quite violently) by hitting her, pulling her hair, and biting her.

She became a recurring character inLilo & Stitch: The Series. Throughout the series, it is established that she is from a relatively wealthy family and is a spoiled brat who lives with her mother. In the episode "Yapper", it is revealed that she adopted Experiment 007 as a pet, naming her "Gigi", but does not realize she is an experiment untilLeroy & Stitch.

Mertle has a small role in the live-action film in which she is portrayed as much of a bully as her animated counterpart's portrayal in the sequel films andThe Series. Unlike inThe Series, which showed that her mother is single, both of her parents are still together in the film.

Cobra Bubbles is working as asocial worker at the time of the original film. He is called toNani's house to determine the fate of herguardianship over her sister Lilo, only to find Lilo home by herself, the front door nailed shut, and Nani trying to get in via the dog door. After a brief assessment, during which Lilo misinterprets Nani's hand signals, Cobra concludes that Nani is not doing a good enough job and gives her three days to change his mind. When Nani is fired because of Stitch's violent behavior, he informs her that he cannot ignore her being unemployed and demands her to get a new job as soon as possible. Cobra's subsequent encounter with Stitch also proves to be less than favorable. He is voiced in the films byVing Rhames, inLilo & Stitch: The Series by Kevin Michael Richardson, and inStitch & Ai by an uncredited Richard Epcar.^{[citation needed]}

Cobra is a formerCIA agent and was involved in an incident atRoswell in 1973, presumably through which he knows the Grand Councilwoman. He mentions that he saved the earth from an alien race by convincing them that themosquito was endangered and that Earth should be turned into awildlife preserve. When the Grand Councilwoman declares that Nani and Lilo are to be caretakers of Stitch during his exile on Earth, she also implies that Cobra Bubbles is not to divide but instead protect the family.

Cobra appears as a playable character to unlock for a limited time in the video gameDisney Magic Kingdoms.^[9]

In the live-action film, Cobra Bubbles is depicted as solely being a CIA agent, with his status as a social worker in this adaption merely being a cover-up. The new character of Mrs. Kekoa takes over the role of Nani and Lilo's social worker, while he pretends to be Kekoa's new director. He and the Grand Councilwoman had never met before in this continuity, but he does promise her that he will keep alien society a secret from humans after they meet and she decides to exile Stitch on Earth. The film's mid-credits scene also reveals that he has befriended the Pelekaiʻohana.

TheGrand Councilwoman is the leader of the United Galactic Federation (sometimes called the Galactic Alliance inLilo & Stitch: The Series and its films). Others occasionally refer to her as "Your Majesty" and "Your Highness", and on the whole, she seems both reasonable and well-intentioned, although, like many members of the United Galactic Federation, she knows almost nothing about Earth or its inhabitants. She is of an unknown species by name, but she seems to be reminiscent of a grey alien, with hoof-shaped feet, big eyes, and a big head.

InLilo & Stitch, the Grand Councilwoman was first seen in a council chamber with the other Galactic Leaders during the trial against Jumba. After asking Jumba's genetic creation, Experiment 626, if he could show some good in him, the Grand Councilwoman sentenced the Experiment to exile on a desert asteroid and Jumba to prison. However, 626 escapes in a police cruiser and she asks if it would be possible to just go to Earth and retrieve him. Pleakley tells her that the planet is a protectedmosquito preserve and she later allows Pleakley and Jumba to retrieve 626. During the course of the film, the Councilwoman makes frequent calls to Pleakley, questioning what they are doing and why Experiment 626 has not been captured yet. In her last call to Pleakley, she loses patience and fires him and Jumba, sending CaptainGantu to finish the mission. At the end of the film, she finds that 626 (now named Stitch) found his own family and has changed for the better. She is reluctantly about to take Stitch to serve out his sentence when she learns thatLilo and Nani paid money for Stitch and therefore legally own him, giving the Councilwoman a legal loophole she could use. She happily allows him to stay with the Pelekais in exile on Earth and announces that the family is under the protection of the United Galactic Federation.

She makes limited appearances in the sequels (except forLilo & Stitch 2) and spin-offs. InStitch! The Movie, she assists Cobra Bubbles in arresting Dr. Hämsterviel during a prisoner swap with him, but her efforts were thwarted by Experiment 221 (Sparky) out of concern that the pods of the other experiments, which Hämsterviel had in his possession, would be destroyed in the process. After Lilo and Stitch cause the experiment pods to be scattered around Kauaʻi and capture Hämsterviel, the Councilwoman initially says that Earth would have evacuated and the experiment destroyed, but she's persuaded to let Lilo and Stitch hunt down the experiments and rehabilitate them. The Councilwoman returns in "Finder" (the only episode ofThe Series in which she appears) offering Gantu to have his old job back if he captures an escaped Hämsterviel, but rescinds the offer after he accidentally captured another innocent (Mertle). InLeroy & Stitch, she holds a ceremony congratulating Lilo, Stitch, Jumba, and Pleakley in capturing and rehabilitating the first 624 experiments, giving the aliens rewards and designating Lilo as the experiments' caretaker. After Hämsterviel takes over the Galactic Federation/Alliance with the help of his Leroy army, he demotes the Councilwoman to serve as his secretary. Upon Hämsterviel and Leroy's defeat and arrest, the Councilwoman holds another ceremony where she lets Stitch, Jumba, and Pleakley return to Earth to live with Lilo again, restores Gantu's post as captain of the Galactic Armada, and permits Reuben to be Gantu's galley officer.

InStitch!, she first appears in the second season finale "Experiment Zero", where she informs Stitch of a major threat from a cyborg experiment known as Zero, and gives Stitch the equipment and spacecraft needed to face off against Zero. She then appears in the third season, informing Jumba and Pleakley in the season premiere "New Town" about Jumba's experiments that he left in the Galactic Federation's care being stolen from them, with the spaceship of the season's antagonist Delia having been seen recently, and again in the season finale "Dark-End" where she has Delia arrested after her experiment Dark End gets defeated by Stitch. She also appears in both post-season specialsStitch and the Planet of Sand andStitch! Perfect Memory.

InStitch & Ai, the Councilwoman is first seen in the third episode "Gotcha!" (after a cameo at the end of the preceding episode "Teacher's Pet"), informing Jumba and Pleakley about the Jaboodies and the Woolagongs going after Stitch for his "metamorphosis program", ordering the two to rescue Stitch under the threat of imprisonment doinghard labor. At the end of the following episode, "The Scroll", after Jumba and Pleakley inform the Councilwoman about Stitch finding a new home with Wang Ai Ling and Wang Jiejie, she permits Jumba and Pleakley to let Stitch stay with the Wang sisters under the condition of the two aliens staying to watch over him. She appears one more time in the eleventh episode "Nuo Opera", where Cobra Bubbles informs her of Jumba having made new experiments that are causing mischief, leading her to decide that she, Gantu, and the Galactic Federation need to intervene and stop them, but Cobra later informs her to call off the operation after having seen that Stitch made them behave and discovering that Jumba has been sending his newest experiments off to a pocket dimension.

The Grand Councilwoman's appearance inthe 2025 live-action film is mostly identical to her 2002 animated film portrayal. Compared to her animated portrayal, she's more sarcastic, more willing to vaporize Earth to stop Stitch, and has not met Cobra Bubbles before, although when they do meet, he promises to keep alien society hidden from Earth's inhabitants. She also arrests the film's more villainous Jumba after he fails to capture Stitch within 48 hours and lets Stitch serves his exile on Earth without needing to use a legal loophole.

The Grand Councilwoman also appears in the video gameKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.

David Kawena is Nani's boyfriend. He is voiced byJason Scott Lee in the original film andLilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch andDee Bradley Baker inLilo & Stitch: The Series and its films, while Kaipo Dudoit portrayed him in the live-action film. He is a great surfer who works as afire performer at the luau where Nani also previously worked in the first film and the live-action film, the latter which also gives him a second job as a lifeguard. Very easygoing, he is a close and supportive friend to both Pelekai sisters, having helped them out several times.

Lynne Hasagawa, usually referred to asMrs. Hasagawa, is a little old lady with grey hair and wears glasses, and is the owner of the town's fruit stand. In the episode "Mrs. Hasagawa's Cats", she obtains and activates several experiments who she believes to be cats. She does not appear in the live-action film, although her voice actressAmy Hill portrays a new character named Tūtū to replace her.

• Moses Puloki: Lilo'shula teacher. He is very patient with his young students and is very tolerant of their antics. However, he is often exasperated by the way Mertle and her friends disrespect Lilo. Lilo and her classmates often call Moses "Kumu", Hawaiian for teacher. Lilo oddly calls him "Mr. Petuli" in theLilo & Stitch: The Series episode "Cannonball", though she later refers to him by his given name Moses in the same episode. He is voiced byKunewa Mook [d], who is akumu hula in real life. In the live-action film, in which he is only credited as "Kumu Hula" and is portrayed by Brutus Labenz, he expels Lilo from hishālau hula after she shoves Mertle off the stage during a recital.
• Elena, Teresa, and Yuki: They are three girls that always accompany Mertle and mock Lilo with her. They usually travel in a group and usually say a drawn-out, sarcastic "Yeah!" in unison when agreeing with Mertle on something. The three have very few distinguishing personality traits, withThe Series showing Yuki having an interest inice hockey and implying that Teresa has an interest in technology. Elena is voiced by Jillian Henry and Yuki is voiced by Lili Ishida, while Teresa is voiced by Kali Whitehurst inStitch! The Movie,The Series, andLeroy & Stitch, and Holliston Coleman inLilo & Stitch 2. In the live-action film, in which they are not named, they are portrayed by Elle Hipa, Arianna Jordan Ignacio Acidera, and Aubrey Rose Madarang.
• Rescue Lady: The operator of Aloha Animal Rescue, Kokaua Town'sanimal shelter where Lilo adopts Stitch. She has red hair and wears glasses and green overalls. Her real name, according to Lilo's pink slip showing her ownership of Stitch, isSusan Hegarty, which is the name of the vocal coach who voiced her in the original film. She also makes brief appearances in three episodes ofLilo & Stitch: The Series, voiced byGrey DeLisle. In the live-action film, she is renamedAJ and is a young woman portrayed by Celia Kenney. AJ is familiar with Lilo, with Lilo having visited the shelter before, and forces her to surrender candy that she intended to feed the dogs with so they don't get diarrhea.
• Ice Cream Man: An unnamed, obese man with sunglasses, swimming trunks (shorts and analoha shirt in most episodes ofThe Series), sandals, and a sunburn around his body except for an area on his torso where he wore anA-shirt. He is arunning gag throughout theLilo & Stitch franchise. Whenever he appears, he drops his ice cream from its cone before he can finish it. This character has never spoken in the series except saying "Whoa!" when he tripped over a pod. He also cries after being turned into a baby by Experiment 151 (Babyfier). His real eyes can be seen in "Swirly". He is normally silent but was voiced, briefly, byFrank Welker. In the live-action film, he is aNative Hawaiian instead of awhite tourist, and he tries to enjoyHawaiian shave ice instead of ice cream. He is credited as "Big Hawaiian Dude" as a result of these changes and is played by David Hekili Kenui Bell; the remake was Bell's final acting role that was released while he was alive.^[20]
• Luki: Ashave ice business owner and vendor who appeared briefly in the original film and in Stitch's nightmare in the opening ofLilo & Stitch 2, and a few times inLilo & Stitch: The Series. In the original film andLilo & Stitch 2, he is Caucasian with brown hair, butThe Series changes his appearance to be Polynesian with black hair. In the series, he is voiced byDerek Stephen Prince.
• Pudge: An orange tropical saltwater fish who Lilo believes to havecontrol over the weather. She feeds him a peanut butter sandwich every Thursday to "appease" him. He also appears in the non-canonChibi Tiny Tales episode "All Hail Pudge!", in which he is depicted as sapient and with actual weather manipulation powers.^[21] In the live-action film, he appears to be apufferfish, and he eats a sandwich that Lilo makes with lettuce and tomato instead of peanut butter.

Chopsuey (Experiment 621) is one of Stitch's cousins. A green, skinny Stitch look-alike with a spiky yellow mohawk and two prominent fangs jutting from his lower jaw, he has all of Stitch's powers and is jealous of all the attention Stitch gets. He was voiced byFrank Welker.

Dr. Habbitrale is one of many rivals of Dr. Jumba Jookiba. He shares a similar appearance to Hämsterviel, appearing to be of the same rodent-like alien species as him. He was voiced byJames Arnold Taylor.

Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel (/ˈhɑːmstərviːl/HAHM-stər-veel) is voiced byJeff Bennett inLilo & Stitch: The Series and its filmsStitch! The Movie andLeroy & Stitch, whileKirk Thornton voiced him in theStitch! anime. Hämsterviel is a diminutive rat-like alien scientist who desires to conquer the galaxy. The former lab partner of Jumba, he now seeks to capture the experiments he helped create.

In theStitch! anime series, Hämsterviel is seen out of prison residing in a laboratory hideout on an asteroid, with Gantu and Reuben working for him again. He now goes out in the open more often to fight against Stitch and his new friendYuna. He also has a number of experiments in his possession and often sends them out to fight for him; he states in an episode of the English dub that he kidnapped them from Kauaʻi and reverted them back to evil using a recording of Angel's siren song. Additionally, during the anime, primarily its third season~Best Friends Forever~, he "transmutates" a number of experiments to enhance or change their abilities.

Hämsterviel makescostumed character appearances atTokyo Disneyland and occasionally atDisneyland Paris. He also appeared in a 2014Disney Villains-themed event atWalt Disney World called "Villains Unleashed" alongside Gantu.^[22][23]

Reuben (Experiment 625) is one of the experiments created by Jumba, and one of Stitch's cousins. Reuben has every ability Stitch has (along with a much better fluency in English, speaking with aBrooklynaccent) but he prefers to make sandwiches than use his powers. He is voiced byRob Paulsen in the films andLilo & Stitch: The Series, and byDave Wittenberg in theStitch! anime's English dub. Although the character's canonical debut was inStitch! The Movie, he first appeared in prequel comics published inDisney Adventures before the release ofthe original film.^[24]

Reuben makes occasionalcostumed character appearances atDisney Parks, usually in events along with several other experiments. He made an appearance inLilo & Stitch's Big Panic on a float with the villains of his franchise.^[24] He made an extremely brief, non-speaking cameo appearance inStitch's Great Escape! at theMagic Kingdom. Reuben appears as a playable character to unlock for a limited time in the video gameDisney Magic Kingdoms.^[15] He also makes a cameo appearance in the climax of the 2025 live-action film as a holographic image on a monitor in Jumba's ship.

Sparky (Experiment 221) is one of the experiments created by Jumba, and one of Stitch's cousins. He can control electricity and move around with it as a method of propulsion, sometimes causing short circuits. He is voiced byFrank Welker, while he is voiced bySteven Blum in the anime's dubbed version. His "one true place" isa disused lighthouse on Kauai, which he can power up for full operation.

Sparky also appears as an enemy in the video gameKingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, which takes place before the events of the first film. He has also madecostumed character appearances inDisney Parks, usually in events with other experiments.

Thegenetic experiments (or simplyexperiments) aregenetically engineeredalien creatures created by Jumba Jookiba who are featured throughout the franchise, of whichStitch (Experiment 626) is among them. The experiments, made by Jumba with funding provided by his former partner-in-crime Jacques von Hämsterviel, were primarily designed for causing evil deeds in a variety of forms, ranging from mere annoyances to planetary destruction. Although at least one of them have technically appeared in virtually everyLilo & Stitch-related media—mainly through Stitch—the collective experiments were only a main focus inLilo & Stitch: The Series (and itspilot andfinale films) and theStitch! anime series. The experiments, in general, were first introduced in theLilo & Stitch prequel comics shown inDisney Adventures magazine and in the PlayStation 2 prequel video gameDisney's Stitch: Experiment 626, which were released before the original film's premiere, but they did not make their official debut in the animated continuity untilStitch! The Movie.

The pronunciation of each experiment's number is typically by digit (e.g. Stitch is "Experiment Six-Two-Six"), with the only known exceptions being those whose numbers are divisible by 100 (e.g. Spooky is "Experiment Three Hundred"). According to some episodes ofLilo & Stitch: The Series and the "wanted posters" in the exit halls ofStitch's Great Escape!, the official abbreviation of "Experiment" (when referring to a specific one of such) is "X-" (X with a hyphen); in this format, Stitch's number would be abbreviated as "X-626" (pronounced as "ex six-two-six").

The experiments serve as the mainplot devices ofLilo & Stitch: The Series, where Lilo and Stitch have to find the experiments (who are initially shown as dehydrated pods that are activated in water), capture them, name them, and rehabilitate them by putting them in occupations where they can use their abilities to help out society (referred to by Lilo as the places where they truly belong or "one true places"). Stitch, inspired by Hawaiian terminology, refers to nearly all of his fellow experiments as his "cousins" (Angel, his girlfriend, being the lone exception) and considers them all a part of hisʻohana. The original 626 numbered experiments, ranging from X-001/Shrink to X-626/Stitch, had their given names shown alongsideLeroy & Stitch's credits.

About 100 experiments were designed forLilo & Stitch: The Series, which initially was not intended to feature the other 625 experiments made before Stitch.^[25][26]Lilo & Stitch: The Series executive producerJess Winfield stated that during the show's development,Walt Disney Television Animation artist and director Steve Lyons suggested that Lilo and Stitch would hunt down various creatures that a villain would make from cloning Stitch.^[25] Over time, the idea of the Stitch clones would change to the 625 experiments before Stitch after someone else suggested them instead.^[25] Winfield did not remember who first thought up of the idea of using the other 625 experiments, although he believed it was either himself, fellow executive producerBobs Gannaway, or then-president of Walt Disney Television Animation Barry Blumberg.^[25]

Stitch & Ai—which does not feature any of the original experiments besides Stitch—features an entirely new set of experiments based on creatures fromChinese mythology.^[27]

Since the majority of experiments werenever seen, this list will only focus on those who made significant appearances in officialLilo & Stitch media, such as having been a featured experiment on an episode ofLilo & Stitch: The Series and/orStitch!, making multiple recurring appearances, or having a spoken role.

• X-626/Stitch – A blue koala-like experiment who was designed to cause chaos and destruction, but defied his destructive programming after being adopted by Lilo. Being the titular lead of the franchise, he is the only experiment to appear in all the franchise's films, television series, video games, and theme park attractions, among other works.
• Experiment 627 – A red koala-like experiment who is Jumba's first experiment made using the limited technology he has on Earth. He is more powerful than Stitch, with higher strength, greater durability, and more abilities without any of the same weaknesses as his predecessor.
• X-629/Leroy – A red koala-like experiment who looks like a rougher version of Stitch and was forcibly created by Jumba under the orders of Hämsterviel.

He is the titular antagonist ofLeroy & Stitch.
• Skunkuna – A skunk-like experiment from theStitch! anime who is able to shoot explosive pellets that release an unbearable stench upon impact. He was created by Hämsterviel and lacks a numerical designation. He was voiced by Dave Wittenberg.

Angel (Experiment 624) is a pink female experiment who is Stitch'slove interest with a great feminine resemblance to him. Stitch is madly in love with her and she shares the same feeling; they call each other their "boojiboo", a word in their native Tantalog language that is analogous to "mate". Angel can hypnotize others (mainly experiments made before her) by singing asiren song that converts them from good to evil, or vice versa when she sings her song backward. However, she can not hypnotize experiments created after her, including Reuben (625) and Stitch. In the anime seriesStitch!, she is a famous singer who triumphs worldwide. She is voiced byTara Strong in Western-produced media, and byKate Higgins in the anime's English dub.^[29] She was designed by Jose Zelaya, anEl Salvador-born character designer working atDisney Television Animation.^[28]

Angel becomes a much more recurring character in theStitch! anime series, having become a successful pop singer since the events ofLeroy & Stitch.

She also previously made an extremely brief, non-speaking cameo appearance inStitch's Great Escape!.

Despite her limited appearances inLilo & Stitch: The Series, Angel became one of the franchise's most popular characters.^[30][31]As a result of her popularity, she began makingcostumed character appearances in theDisney Parks in 2006, mostly atTokyo Disney Resort andDisneyland Paris, usually appearing with Stitch.^[32] On February 14 (Valentine's Day), 2021, she began appearing at Disney'sAulani resort in Hawaii.^[33] Various merchandise featuring her likeness have been sold globally, including in the United States where the anime that she appears more frequently in aired only briefly onDisney XD; this has included merchandise withWalt Disney World andDisneyland branding,^[34][35][36] and a dedicated character page on theDisney Store website. She has also appeared in various video and mobile games, includingLine Corporation'sDisney Tsum Tsum,Bandai Namco'sDisney Tsum Tsum Festival,Gameloft'sDisney Magic Kingdoms,^[9]Disney Getaway Blast,Disney Speedstorm,^[37] andDisney Heroes: Battle Mode, while a plush toy of the character appears in the third episode ofMonsters at Work.^[38] Angel also makes a cameo appearance in the climax of the 2025 live-action film as a holographic image on a monitor in Jumba's ship.

After growing fed up with Stitch's constant bragging, Jumba decides to createExperiment 627, a red, koala-like, cone-headed experiment that possesses not only all of Stitch's abilities but also those of at least 20 other experiments and none of their weaknesses. Unlike the other experiments in the franchise (with the possible exception ofLeroy), 627 was designed to be irredeemably evil with no possible way of turning good. Because of this, he was never given a name or a place where he belonged. He was voiced by Stitch's voice actors, Chris Sanders (inLilo & Stitch: The Series) and Ben Diskin (inStitch!).

After being activated, 627 immediately breaks out of Jumba's ship and flees into the surrounding jungles, eventually stumbling across Reuben and attacking him before stealing and eating his sandwich. Eventually coming into contact with Gantu, 627 became his second-in-command and quickly got to work on capturing the experiments whilst also repeatedly humiliating Stitch with his superior abilities. However, he is ultimately defeated as Stitch exploits a flaw in his programming; he has an "extra" sense of humor andwill collapse if he laughs too much. He is then dehydrated into his pod form.

In 627's only anime episode, Hämsterviel acquires and reactivates 627, who is also reprogrammed to speak a wider vocabulary (he only said "Evil!" in his original Western appearance). He disguises him himself as a human duke to lure Angel to a fake castle and use her to lead Stitch into a trap. He nearly succeeds until Jumba recalls his original flaw, and Stitch and his friends exploit it again. He then saves Stitch and his friends from Hämsterviel's castle (which was also a rocket) and then Stitch and Angel from being crushed by Hämsterviel's spaceship, though only because, as 627 self-declares, that only he gets to destroy Stitch. He then leaves Earth by taking a space scooter meant for Gantu.

627 has also appeared as acostumed character inDisney Parks, usually with other experiments.

627 makes a cameo appearance in the climax of the 2025 live-action film as a holographic image on a monitor in Jumba's ship. The image shows him with more vicious fangs not seen in his original animated counterpart and with horns instead of antennae. Jumba also states to Stitch in said climax that he intends to upgrade the latter into an Experiment 627 by removing his capacity for love and empathy, though this fails when Lilo and Stitch defeat Jumba.

Victoria is a friend that Lilo meets in the second season ofLilo & Stitch: The Series. In her first episode, "Swapper", she had just moved into Kokaua Town, also joining Lilo's hula class. When she and Lilo were becoming friends, Mertle tried to befriend her so that she would not be Lilo's friend, claiming that she was weird. However, despite Mertle's best efforts, Victoria reveals that she also liked weird things and decided to become Lilo's best (human) friend, to which Mertle angrily responds by saying, "We would never tolerate with anyone who actually has fun with Lilo." Following the agreement from the other girls, Mertle then ditches Victoria who happily remains with Lilo.

Victoria's appearance in the series is very short. She then appears briefly in the episode "Slick" where she, Lilo, and the other girls compete against each other to sell the most candy bars for theirhālau hula.

Then in "Snooty" (the only episode where she and Lilo are actually seen hanging out together), she becomes frightened of Experiment 277 (Snooty), a bat-like experiment who she mistakes for a vampire. After Lilo discovers it's an experiment she tries to convince Victoria not to slay it, but to catch it and try to make friends with it, pointing out that the experiments can be turned from bad to good. But after it puts Stitch out of commission, she refuses to believe Lilo and decides to team up with Gantu to slay the experiment. Later, however, after Lilo shows up and saves her from Gantu she realizes her mistake and saves Snooty from Gantu. Furthermore, when Snooty shows a notable ability to clear out Victoria'soften-clogged sinuses, she decides to keep him as a pet.

In "Remmy", she appears with Mertle and the other hula girls in Lilo's dream where they all treat her nicely at first, but then she begins to treat her as badly as the other girls when the dream turns into a nightmare.

In "Wishy-Washy", she appears briefly at the end when she graduates to intermediate hula.

She then makes two cameo appearances inLeroy & Stitch, first when she gets a new haircut from Clip, and later when she is taking Snooty for a walk, prior to his capture by Leroy.

• Mr. Wong (voiced byClyde Kusatsu): The owner of the rental hut on Lahui Beach and Nani's employer in early season one. He is quite demanding of her working at his hut when and how he wants her to, such as having her work on her day off when an earthquake messed up the hut, but he is otherwise understanding and forgiving when she has to deal with her personal troubles.
• Mrs. Edmonds (voiced byApril Winchell): Mertle's mother. Unlike her daughter, she is kind to Lilo. However, she also spoils her daughter heavily, to the point where Mertle even gets to celebrate "half-birthday" parties. She makes a cameo appearance in the live-action film (credited as "Mertle's Mom"), in which she is portrayed by Isabelle Du. Unlike in the animated franchise, in which she is a single mother (possibly divorced from her unseen husband Karl), she is seen with and remains married to her husband (credited as "Mertle's Dad"), who is portrayed by Justin Martin.
• Keoni Jameson (voiced byShaun Fleming): A young, laid-back boy who enjoys skateboarding and on whom Lilo has a crush. Lilo constantly tries to vie for his affections. He had a crush on Pleakley, whom he knows as Lilo's 'aunt', in the episode "Hunkahunka", but in "Nosy" he stated that he only had the crush for that one week.
• Mr. Jameson (voiced byBryan Cranston): The father of Keoni and Nani's employer from midway through season one onward. He owns several businesses around Kauai, including the Birds of Paradise Hotel.
• Officer Kahiko (voiced byKevin Michael Richardson): A police officer who knows Lilo well and occasionally tries to keep her out of trouble when she isn't accompanied by Nani.
• Aunt Stacy (voiced by April Winchell): Mertle's aunt. She's a Hollywood producer and she strangely cannot remember Mertle's name.

Leroy (Experiment 629)^[39][40] is Stitch'sevil twinbrother who is created inLeroy & Stitch. He has red fur, frilly ears, yellow teeth, bent antennae, three bent spines on his back, a fluffy tail, and a slightly deeper voice as well as two extra, retractable arms and retractable claws on his front paws. Jumba started creating him from a template similar to Stitch until Dr. Hämsterviel captured him and forced him to make a "new version" of 626 (Stitch). He is designed to have all of Stitch's powers, but he also has the ability to disguise himself as Stitch by changing his fur from red to blue. He is voiced by Chris Sanders.

As of June 2020, Leroy's only other appearance in theLilo & Stitch franchise proper has been in the second chapter of a two-chapterDisney Tsum Tsum-themed side story of the mangaStitch & the Samurai that was released via the Japanese version oftheDisney Tsum Tsum mobile game for a limited time throughout that month.^[39] Notably, the manga was the first Disney media to number Leroy as Experiment 629, although the second chapter of the side story was not published in English; the number would be proclaimed for English-speaking audiences the following year through a Disney-licensed sticker book revolving around the franchise.^[40]

Yuna Kamihara (上原ユウナ,Kamihara Yūna) is a tomboyish 4th-grade (later 5th grade in the third season) student who lives on a fictional island off the shore ofOkinawa in theRyukyus called Izayoi Island. Living on Izayoi Island, she practices and teaches karate, having learned it from her grandfather. Her grandpa also did the honor of giving her a special type of moonsand as a good luck charm in her study of karate before he left.

During theMadhouse-produced first two seasons, she lives a rather normal cherished life with her grandmother. Her parents are absent in her life; her father is out at work a lot as a marine biologist around Okinawa, and her mother died when she was an infant. Her life remained normal yet happy until one day, after a varied coincidence, she meets Stitch, who crash-landed on her island after he got caught in a wormhole that sent him to Earth. From then and there when they met, the two became best friends and the duo went on various adventures on Stitch's quest in order to be "good". Yuna though, throughout the majority of the anime, finds friends like Taro, Sasha, JJ, Tombo, yōkai like Kijimunaa, and even in experiments like Angel. Her strong sense of justice is what makes her a tomboy, which shows against evildoers like Dr. Hämsterviel and against rivals like Penny and her gang of bullies.

In theShin-Ei Animation-produced third season, she and Stitch move off Izayoi and onto the fictionalOkinawan city of New Town to live with her cousin Tigerlily there, at the behest of Yuna's grandmother. (A flashback scene in the Japanese original version of the season's first episode states that it is mainly because Izayoi Elementary School is about to close down after one last school year.)^[41] She becomes a student at New Town Elementary School and continues to go on adventures with Stitch in the city.

The creators of the anime got Yuna's name from the Japanese name of sea hibiscus out in Okinawa (known in Japanese as Yuna). Yuna's birthday is on February 25. Yuna's surname Kamihara wasn't unveiled until much later, although previous guesses were Chitama, after the dojo and the forest on Izayoi and Hanako, which was Yuna's previous name and design during the development of the anime.

Gramma (おばあ,Obaa) is Yuna's grandmother who raises her on Izayoi Island during the show's first two seasons. She is a kind, patient, elderly woman who is very knowledgeable about yōkai and the spiritual side of the island.

Kijimunaa (キジムナー,Kijimuna) is a little yōkai, who is Yuna and Stitch's friend. He has long, bushy red hair that covers his eyes and large, round nostrils which can be mistaken for his eyes. He has a powerful sneeze that can knock others off their feet. He is kind of a coward, but with the help of his friends, he can find the courage to best whatever he can.

BooGoo (ブーグー) is a mysterious purple alien insect with some shapeshifting abilities who is introduced in the debut episode of the second season, becoming a pet to the alien side of Yuna and Stitch's family. She is considered cute and is beloved by everyone except for Stitch, who finds her to be a nuisance, especially since she tends to eat food off of him, often by tricking him into looking away while he's eating or about to eat.

In her debut, she was found by Dr. Hämsterviel, who sends her to Izayoi Island to mess with Stitch's good deed counter, causing it to count good deeds as "bad" (and thus removing "good deed" points) and bad deeds as "good" (and thus adding points). She was found by Pleakley, who mistakes her to be a kind offruit fly, and was discovered by Jumba to have been enslaved by Hämsterviel using a controlling device, which Jumba then removes, freeing her. Afterward, Jumba repairs Stitch's good deed counter, and BooGoo joins Yuna and Stitch's family.

Tigerlily Sakai, namedZuruko Sasuga (さすがつるこ,Sasuga Zuruko) in the Japanese original, is Yuna's beautiful but mean and bullying cousin who appears midway through season 2. While she seems to be kind-hearted to others, she is harsh and cruel to Yuna for unknown reasons and constantly blackmails her into doing all the chores around the house (although she later claims that she's only trying to be a role model for Yuna). However, when Yuna and Stitch move off to live with her in season 3, she becomes more friendly with Yuna and treats her nicer, although she still forces her to do most of the house chores.

Delia (デリア) is an evil alien woman who appears in season 3. She is a tall, white-skinned, big-eared, humanoid alien woman with bright red hair and heterochromatic eyes, a red left eye and a green right eye, with blue sclerae. She has a previous history with both Jumba and Hämsterviel, and is in a partnership with the latter to get the Neo-PowerChip that is inside Stitch. Delia alters a majority of experiments, which causes them to become physically stronger and evil. Delia usually calls Dr. Hämsterviel by false names or pronunciations. When Dr. Hämsterviel's plans go wrong, she usually punishes him with various unusual forms of punishment.

In the final two episodes of the season, she eventually creates her own genetic experiment, Dark End, by stealing a prototype power cell from Jumba, and uses the experiment to begin an invasion of Earth. Although Dark End proves to be powerful, they are eventually defeated by Stitch, and Delia gets arrested by the Grand Councilwoman shortly thereafter along with Gantu, Hämsterviel, and Reuben and is imprisoned with them. She is not seen again afterwards, as she does not appear in either of the post-series specialsStitch and the Planet of Sand andStitch! Perfect Memory despite the other three aliens appearing.

Dark End is an experiment made by Delia who is designed to be much stronger than Stitch. This experiment is female in the original Japanese version and male in the English dub. They are not among Stitch's cousins, as neither Jumba nor Hämsterviel made them.

• Yuna's father (ユウナの父): A marine biologist who is very dedicated to his work, he is mostly absent from his daughter Yuna's life. Despite his dedication to his job, he loves being with his daughter.

He only appears in the season two finale "Experiment Zero". He was designed for the same destructive purposes as Stitch after him, but he was too violent and unstable for Jumba to control.
