Robby the Seal



Robby the Seal is one of the main characters in the British/Swiss animated series Pingu.

He is the best friend of the show's protagonist Pingu and first met him in the Series 1 episode Pingu Goes Fishing where he kept stealing and eating the bait Pingu was using to fish and tricked him into thinking he was collecting lots of fish when it was the same one. Pingu eventually catches Robby and pursues him and stops him from escaping back into the sea by covering up the two holes in the ice.

When attempting to escape, Robby hurts his flipper and a remorseful Pingu comforts him, which causes Robby's flipper to heal. Seeing kindness in Pingu, Robby dives into the sea and brings Pingu a large fish and the two become friends.
