Grouchy Smurf is one of the main characters of The Smurfs franchise. He’s a misanthropic grouch of the Smurf village. His catchphrase is "I hate (something somebody else mentions) and Gargamel". Grouchy typically has a scowl on his face.
In the comics version, he was originally a normal Smurf, changed only when bitten by a Bzz fly in the comic story "The Black Smurfs" (adapted into English as "The Purple Smurfs"). In the cartoon version he seems to have always have been a sorehead, and was not THE Smurf bitten by the Bzz fly. Despite his grouchy attitude, he has a soft spot for Baby Smurf and the Smurflings. In the movie, his bad attitude is implied to be from insecurity.
He is in love with Vexy in the second movie.
Grouchy Smurf is also the protagonist from The Smurfs: A Christmas Carol similar to Ebenezer Scrooge from A Christmas Carol. In the beginning of Christmas, Grouchy Smurf dislikes Christmas, but after he receives the visits of Three Ghosts of Christmas, he starts to like Christmas and gets loved after he admits his mistakes.
In the cartoon and in the comic book, he starts not to care deeply for Baby Smurf, but after he realizes that Baby Smurf is a nice baby, he starts to care deeply for him, even saving his life from Gargamel.
In the Robot Chicken series, he was voiced by Seth Green. In the MAD series, he was voiced by Larry Dorf. In the TV show, he was voiced by Michael Bell. In the movie, he was voiced by George Lopez and Jake Johnson. In the video games, he was voiced by Bumper Robinson. In the Japanese dub from the movie, he was voiced by Junichi Endo.

Grouchy is usually considered a sourpuss since he expresses what he dislikes all of the time including his hatred towards Gargamel. Occasionally, this will anger some of the Smurfs, such as Jokey in "Okey-Dokey!". He shows no sense of humor, evidenced in that episode and many others.
Grouchy in the live-action film and its sequel is very outspoken and opinionated, and can at times be a bit snarky. Here, he is very pessimistic as well, being skeptical of the entirety of New York City in The Smurfs.
Despite his flaws, Grouchy is occasionally good-hearted and caring, particularly having a soft spot for Baby Smurf, Puppy, Papa Smurf, Smurfette, the Smurflings, Grandpa Smurf, Clumsy Smurf (at times), and flowers. Grouchy also occasionally pulls off acts of courage or selflessness to save the ones he loves.
The Smurf Film[]
In the 2011 Smurfs movie, Grouchy is one of the few Smurfs that travels through time to present-day New York City. During their stay with Patrick and Grace Winslow, he tells Patrick that he finds the Smurf song truly annoying. In the FAO Schwarz toy store where they search for a "stargazer", Grouchy meets a plush toy of a green M&M and discloses his life and secrets to it, but he gets upset when it will not talk to him. He discloses to the plush toy that he uses his grouchiness to hide his true feelings. He makes it promise to remember the moment, as he was supposedly Grouchy for the rest of his life. At the end he is seen having a romantic cart ride with a Smurf-made green M&M plush toy.
Grouchy Smurf appears in The Smurfs 2 as a main character, traveling to modern-day Paris with Papa Smurf, Clumsy, and Vanity to rescue Smurfette from Gargamel, who has kidnapped her so she can give him Papa Smurf's special formula that can turn his Naughties into Smurfs. He temporarily takes on the name Positive Smurf and tries to be more of an encourager, but by the end of the story he reverts to his original name and personality. He winds up falling in love with Vexy.
