Chuck[note 2] (also known as the Yellow Bird) is one of the two deuteragonists (alongside Bomb) of the Angry Birds series. He is an Atlantic canary with an incredibly high speed, and a member of the Angry Birds.
Appearance
- Main article: Chuck/Angryverse
The earliest known appearance of Chuck had him as a yellow-colored, triangular-shaped bird with two feathers on his head and two large eyes with black pupils. He was soon after redesigned to have smaller eyes with red eyebrows floating on them, four black, spiky feathers on his head, and three of said feathers on his back as his tail. He also has white feathers on his belly. In Angry Birds Toons, this design was slightly modified to have him with a somewhat different beak, a more jagged head and tail feathers, and a smoother body shape.
In The Angry Birds Movie, Chuck was given an anthropomorphic design. He is now shaped somewhat like a banana, and has three longer feathers on his crest instead of the shorter four he used to have. His tail feathers are much longer as well. In addition, Chuck has green pupils instead of the traditional black. Future releases would occasionally switch between Chuck's new body and his old one.
In Angry Birds Dream Blast, Chuck was redesigned once again to resemble a hatchling. While he keeps his triangular body from earlier games, he has wider eyes with the green pupils from the films. The feathers on his head and tail are as short as in the games, and end with a circular tip instead of a point one, similar to his earliest design.
Personality
Chuck is a very goofy, hyperactive bird. He is constantly fueled with energy and seems as if he always needs to be doing something. He can never stop moving, both in his mind and in the body. He tends to be clueless and ignorant at times, and this often will get in the way in dire situations.
Chuck is always up to his latest mischief and he can be rude to the other birds. This causes him to get into trouble with the other birds especially Matilda.
Chuck is skilled in fighting and martial arts. Whenever he practices martial arts, he dons his red headband, though his fighting practices can often lead to catastrophe around him.
Chuck also manages to get very distracted and at times cannot focus on the task handed to him due to things that catch his mind, like a wandering butterfly or even a mirror. This vulnerable part of him is what allows the Bad Piggies to get close to the eggs when he is on watch duty.
Despite all this, Chuck is as invested in protecting the eggs as the other birds are. He is extremely loyal and values the other members of his flock, though he can be easily intimidated when the other birds outdo him in something, which has happened with Jay, Jake, and Jim (Full Metal Chuck), Bomb (The Bird that Cried Pig), and Terence (Run Chuck Run).
Powers and abilities
Chuck is notable for his incredible speed. Having been called "the fastest bird in the world",[8] he can use his speed to perform incredible tricks, such as stopping time, boosting in the air, and producing shock waves that can pop nearby balloons.[9] In addition, he is so quick that, to the naked eye, it looks like he is teleporting whenever he is running.[10] He is also capable of dodging and reacting to lightning.[note 3] While his top speed is unknown, he has managed to go from the Cobalt Plateaus to Pig City and retrieve the eggs when they were about to be put on a hot cauldron and return to the plateaus with them, all of it within seconds.[11] Chuck also has sharp reflexes that let him react quickly to almost anything.
To a lesser extent, Chuck is also known for being an experienced wizard and an expert in alchemy. He can summon clouds that can charge lightnings, acid rains, and healing rains, which makes him able to attack a wide range of enemies at the same time or, in the case of the healing rains, cure his allies and remove their negative effects. In addition, he can summon a group of lightning spheres that can protect his target ally, and create a copy of one of his allies that will attack an enemy before disappearing. Chuck is also an expert at driving karts. With his sharp reflexes, he can drive incredibly fast karts with ease, having driven through tight, sharp curves without losing his speed at all. He is also an expert at building and fixing them, having rebuilt a kart of his from scratch in a few seconds.[9]
Lazer Bird
- Main article: Lazer Bird
By passing through an extraterrestrial wormhole of some kind, Chuck can turn into Lazer Bird. Most of his abilities remain the same. This transformation first appeared in Angry Birds Space.
Rocket Bird
- Main article: Rocket Bird
By riding on a rocket, Chuck can turn into Rocket Bird. His ability using this transformation is to spin around while flying and he will fly very fast to the direction that his firework is pointing at. This transformation only appeared in Angry Birds Rio.
Strengths and Weaknesses
Strength: Chuck is similar in strength to Red, but his speed boost maximizes his strength making him at least the same strength as Hal. He can shatter up to five walls of wood (three if not sped up).
Weakness: Chuck is not as effective against square blocks. He doesn't cause a lot of damage to stone (even if sped up) and it would take three (two if sped up) birds to shatter a block of stone. He can also destroy glass, but his speed and strength will horribly decrease.
Relationships
Red
Red's best friend is Chuck. In The Angry Birds Movie, the two first met when they assisted Matilda's anger management classes. While Red was initially annoyed by the yellow bird's quick-paced personality, which often made him feel uncomfortable, they quickly became friends.[12] Though Red can still be annoyed by Chuck's arrogant personality, he acts as a parental figure towards him[13] and respects and trusts him. In addition, when Chuck was seemingly crushed by the slingshot, Red regretted his friend's "loss", only to immediately afterwards find out that he was indeed alive and perfectly fine, confusing him.[14]
The Blues
Chuck and Jay, Jake, and Jim are considerably good friends. However, sometimes The Blues are annoyed by Chuck's nonsense, just like the other birds. The Blues are stubborn towards Chuck when he made them go through his obstacle course in the Toons episode "Full Metal Chuck." In the Toons episode "The Bird Who Cried Pig," Chuck is greeted "hi" by the Blues.
Hal
It is Chuck who rescues Hal from the Bad Piggies' cage in Danger Above 6-4. While the two birds have a friendly relationship, in one comic featured in Angry Birds Magazine, Hal gently reminds Chuck not to ruin The Blues' belief in Santa Claus, as Chuck does not believe in his existence.
Terence
Chuck is other of Terence's friends, and a friendly rival of his. The two first met when they were forced by law to attend Matilda's anger management classes in the first movie. For a long time, Chuck has had a rivalry with Terence, competing against him in many races that Terence somehow manages to win. Because of this, it has been shown that Chuck is jealous of the crimson bird's victories.[15] Regardless, the two still have a mutual respect for each other.
Stella
Chuck and Stella are the main characters of the book Angry Birds: Captain Badburger. In the story, the two try to survive after being kidnapped by the titular zombie pirate Captain Badburger.
Silver
- "You are absolutely gonna love her... But don't love her too much! That's my sister, Red OR I'LL CRUSH EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY!"
- — Chuck talking about Silver to Red, The Angry Birds Movie 2
Silver is Chuck's sister in The Angry Birds Movie series. At a young age, Chuck thought that Silver was "weird", but was surprised for her incredible intelligence and achievements. Currently, he respects and appreciates her. Notably, Chuck has been overprotective of Silver, having threatened Red to not be too close of her or otherwise he was going to "break every bone in his body", and constantly reminding him that she "was his sister". However, there are moments where Chuck and Silver have a tense rivalry, which has led them fighting and losing a race.[16]

Trivia
- Chuck's name is a pun on woodchuck, as his ability can destroy wood.
- Chuck is possibly indirectly named after Chuck Yeager, the first pilot to fly faster than the speed of sound, alluding to his super speed.
- One of the Music Supervisors of Angry Birds Toons describes Chuck as compact ADHD.[17]
- In the Angry Birds Movie, the Mighty Eagle is heard referring to Chuck as Charles. This may be a confirmation that Chuck is simply a nickname and his full name is Charles, as Chuck is the most commonly used short form of Charles in English speaking countries. In the Finnish dub, the Mighty Eagle is heard referring Sakke as Sakari.
- Chuck's select voice is actually one of the grumbling sounds for one of the extra birds. This is notable with Hal, as his original select and launch voice are also grumbling sounds ( although it was changed since the Ham o' ween update ).
- When he turns into a corpse in the slingshot games, Chuck rolls like a ball, even though his body is a cone.
- In the early cutscenes before the Birdday update from Angry Birds, Chuck was the same size as the Blues along with having a similar design to Red but was later on changed to his normal appearance.
- Chuck has astraphobia, a great fear of thunder and lightning, as shown in Thunder Chuck.
- Chuck has previously been arrested in Teddy Takes Off.[18]
- As revealed in the Angry Birds 2 website, Chuck can run up to 100 mph, and sometimes so fast that time slows around him, as seen in the Angry Birds Toons first episode "Chuck Time" , and The Angry Birds Movie.
- In The Angry Birds Movie, Chuck is shown to be left-handed. This can be proven by various things he does with his left hand such as painting with it, raising it, and more. This can also be proven in the AMC promotion and the Regal Crown Club promotion, where he holds the cards and other items with his left hand.
- Chuck, Matilda, the Ice Bird, and Silver (classic dimension) are the only birds of The Flock to not be circular, as Chuck is triangle-shaped, Matilda is egg-shaped, the Ice Bird is cube shaped, whilst Silver was shaped like an upside-down trapezoid.
- In Angry Birds Toons, Chuck is commonly heard making clicking sounds whenever he shows off.
- Chuck does not believe in Santa Claus.[19]
