Rocket Raccoon (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

"Ain't no thing like me, 'cept me."

- Rocket to Peter Quill

89P13, known as Rocket Raccoon, is one of the titular main protagonists of Guardians of the Galaxy​ film series and he is one of the deuteragonists in Avengers: Infinity War. He reappeared in Avengers: Endgame as one of the main protagonists.

He is a loving-adventure and wisecracking genetically altered, cybernetically enhanced, trigger-happy raccoon who spent a majority of his life as a bounty hunter alongside his sentient tree companion, Groot.

Rocket is voiced and motion-caped, and portrayed by American actor Bradley Cooper who also played Phil Wenneck, Faceman Peck, and Chris Kyle.

History
Rocket's origins are mostly unknown, but at some point, illegal genetic experiments were conducted on his raccoon form, thereby transforming him into a sentient being. This process was apparently traumatic, as Rocket describes it (in a drunken diatribe) as having been ripped apart and put back together numerous times.

Rocket eventually met Groot and the both of them became bounty hunters seeking to earn money, usually through illegal means such as theft, to sustain themselves. Because of this criminal lifestyle, he had frequent run-ins with the law and was imprisoned on several occasions, but had managed to escape confinement every time. His search for money would lead him to Xandar where he first met Peter Quill (Star-Lord).

Guardians of the Galaxy
The two mercenaries cross paths with human outlaw Peter Quill, in order to collect the bounty on his head. However, after learning of a great intergalactic threat, Rocket and Groot join up with Quill and two others, Drax the Destroyer and Gamora, the reluctant adoptive daughter of the evil Thanos to gave the Orb to The Collector have a bounty of 3000. 00 before Ronan the Accuser can use it to destroy Xandra and the galaxy, after they escaped from prison they start to travel with Quill's ship Milano.

When they arrives to Knowere a drunk Rocket have a lite with a drunk Drax as him had called him vermin and rodent with him hating the fact that don't exist anything like him.

Then they finally meets The Collector telling them about the Infinity Stones with Rocket wants to be pay but when Collector is going to pay them his assistant Carina try to disobey him to take the Power Stone being disintegrated touching it, then Gamora decide to gave the Orb to someone else but then Ronan, that being called by the drunk Drax that wants to kill Ronan to avenge his wife and his daughter, arrives to Knowere and the ship battle ends with Quill and Gamora being kidnapped by Ravagers led by Quill's adoptive father Yondu Udonta, Rocket unable to save them and Drax finish out of conscience due to being beated almost to death by Ronan.

Later Groot reanimate Drax making him waking and Rocket is mad at Drax to having tried to fight with a so powerful army without thinking about them, Drax apologyzes and despite Rocket is still mad at him, he, Drax and Groot goes to save Quill and Gamora.

Then Rocket, Groot and Drax reunites with Quill and Gamora having discovered that they teamed up with Yondu and the Ravagers, then after a Quill's incoraugement to not leave innocent people Rocket accepts to save those people as do Drax, Gamora and Groot, then they goes to Xandar helped by the Nova Corps.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
"He said welcome to the freakin Guardians of the Galaxy. Only he didn't use frekain."

- Rocket Raccoon.

Rocket is the tritagonist of the film and overall one of the film's primary protagonists. The Guardians became famous for the heroism, and were employed by the Sovereign to take down the Abilisk, since it was eating their batteries. On the planet, Rocket set up music so they could listen, and were able to defeat the creature by distracting it, and Gamora cutting its neck.

Rocket stole their batteries, and got Nebula as their payment, and were later chased by the Sovereign after they learned of the theft. The Guardians were able to escape, and crashed on Behert, and met Star-Lord's father, Ego, and his assistant Mantis. Rocket and Groot were left to repair the ship, and watch Nebula as the others went with Ego to his place. The duo set a trap for the Ravagers, but were captured due to Nebula knocking out Yondu (who had been captured by the mutiny of Taserface).

The group were captured by Taserface's Ravager clan, and the raccoon mocked his name, causing the entire crew to laugh at him. Groot was ordered to get Yondu's arrow controller, and the trio escape with Kraglin, and Taserface was later killed (but was able to give a distress call to the Sovereign). After learning of Ego was a living planet, the trio went to rescue the others from the cosmic being. After a lengthy battle that cost Yondu's life, Ego was defeated, and the Guardians welcomed Mantis as a member of the team. After Yondu's funeral, the Guardians celebrated, and continued their trek across the galaxy.

Avengers: Infinity War
Hearing a distress call from the Statesman, the Guardians recover Thor Odinson, who informs them of Thanos' plans, and him destroying Xandar. Thor demands that he be given transport so that he could travel to Nidavellir, a dwarf world where the are powerful weapons. Rocket, Groot, and Thor go the world, and met the dwarf Eitri, and aided the Norse God in creating Stormbreaker.

The trio were transported to Earth amidst the battle of Wakanda, and Rocket meets White Wolf, asking how much for his virbranium arm. Rocket and White Wolf defeated countless waves of outriders, and the last two Black Order members were killed by the Avengers. Thanos teleported to Wakanda, and was successful in collecting all of the infinity stones. After snapping his fingers, the decimation began to take in effect. In horror, Rocket saw Groot dissolve in dust, and accepted defeat alongside the survivors.
