Don’t imply that action girls can’t be feminine, please and thank you.


* Milli from ''WesternAnimation/TeamUmizoomi'' has a pink dress with flowers, a matching helmet, pink tights/stockings and pink shoes as her default outfit. She's an action girl, so it's a subversion.

Added DiffLines:

* ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatiansTheSeries'':
** Dumpling, although this is justified since she ''is'' a pig.
** Rebecca's [[RegalRuff neck ruff]] is pink, has pink eyes when hypnotized ([[EyeColorChange they turn blue when she snaps out]]), and has a pink spot on her cheek shaped like a heart.
* Caitlin from ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Sixteen}} 6teen]]'' often wears pink in her outfits and has several pink accessories, including her cell phone.
* Robert Mandell's best-known creations, ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers'' and ''WesternAnimation/PrincessGwenevereAndTheJewelRiders'', were distinct contrasts on this trope. In the first, Niko was only shoved into a pink dress ''once'' (while she and Doc were heading to a BadGuyBar), protesting all the while. The latter cartoon was designed for a girl's toy line, and virtually ''everything'' was pastel, with the lead character rarely seen in any other color than pink.
* Brittany of the Chipettes in ''Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks''; pink is her signature color. She is commonly seen wearing a pink skirt with a pink top and is the most girly (and vain) member of the trio.
* Originally averted with Hayley, Jake's little sister, from ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong''. She wore purple and her dragon form was purple. The season 2 redesigns play it straight as she was changed into a light pink dragon who wears light pink as a human.
* Dot from ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' wears a pink skirt.
* In ''WesternAnimation/BarbieInAChristmasCarol'', Eden's best friend Catherine wears a pink and white PimpedOutDress. In a BadFuture, Catherine is as mean as Eden, and has an EvilCostumeSwitch to a purple dress.
* Larke and Bianca of ''WesternAnimation/BeverlyHillsTeens'' have a bunch of pink things, including Bianca's LimitedWardrobe outfit.
* ''WesternAnimation/ButtUglyMartians'' has Shaboom Shaboom. She is the only female Martian seen in the series and both her uniform and the top of her head are colored pink.
* In ''WesternAnimation/CaptainNTheGameMaster'', Princess Lana and Mega Girl wear pink.
* In ''Franchise/CareBears'', there's the pink Cheer Bear, Hopeful Heart Bear, Love-a-lot Bear, and Lotsa Heart Elephant.
* Pink is a common color for WesternAnimation/MinnieMouse and WesternAnimation/DaisyDuck of the ''WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts''.
* Quinn from ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'' wears pink in many of her outfits.
* When ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'' traveled to an AlternateUniverse, Gosalyn's counterpart was [[TomboyAndGirlyGirl feminine compared to the regular Gosalyn's tomboy]], and she wore a pink, frilly dress.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Dinosaucers}}'':
** Sarah wears pink tights.
** Teryx, the only female Dinosaucer, has pink skin and darker-pink armour.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheDogAndPonyShow'': Piki, one of Dog and Pony's friends from Rainbow Fjord, has a pink mane and coat, and is a total GirlyGirl.
* Princess Kneesaa on ''WesternAnimation/{{Ewoks}}'' is often clad in a pink hood.
* ''WesternAnimation/FlipperAndLopaka'': The female dolphin Ultra is pink, which visually distinguishes her from Flipper.
* In the Claymation special ''Follow That Bunny'', female protagonist Clarice is bright pink.
* Amy from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' wears a pink, midriff-baring sweatsuit a lot. However, "Into the Wild Green Yonder" reveals that it's actually a boy's sweatsuit.
* Inverted in ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold''. Helga's usual attire is a pink dress and bow, she writes poetry in pink books, and most of her clothes are either pink or white; however, she is easily the most tomboyish female character in the show.
* ''WesternAnimation/HiHiPuffyAmiYumi'': Ami Onuki. Pink hair? Check. Pink eyes? Check. Part of her dress has pink on it? [[RuleofThree Checkaroonie!]] Also, she has girly interests, so that helps.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{JellyJamm}}'': Rita. Pink hair? Check. Pink skin color? Check. Pink dress? Check. Pink shoes? [[RuleofThree Checkaroonie!]] Also, she has girly interests, so that helps. In an episode called "One Note Universe", Rita goes to the Music Factory to change it's music bubbles from [[ConvenientColorChange rainbow to pink.]] When the residents of Jammbo are affected, they turn pink and [[GirlyGirl their voices change to sound like her.]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'', there is ''so much'' pink.
* Jessie of ''WesternAnimation/JonnyQuestTheRealAdventures'' gets pink clothing, whether a shirt or StylishProtectionGear.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': Kaeloo enjoys wearing pink clothes and accessories from time to time. Eugly wears a pink skirt, and Pretty wears a pink bow on her head, and they both wear pink nail polish. There's also the blindingly obvious fact that Pretty and Eugly [[AmazingTechnicolorWildlife have pink fur]].
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleRascals'', Darla normally wears a pink skirt and suspenders over a white blouse. Her socks are also pink.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolBus'': Just so ViewerGenderConfusion doesn't ensue, class tomboy Wanda Li's regular outfit and tuxedo are both colored in prominent shades of pink.
* In ''WesternAnimation/MegaBabies'', Meg's skin is pink. Her brothers are blue and yellow.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Mirthworms}}'': Crystal Crawler is not only colored purple-pink but almost always wears a pink hooded cape.
* ''WesternAnimation/MonkLittleDog'': Kimmy, Monk's girlfriend, has pink hair on her head and her chest.
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'':
** Unsurprisingly Pinkie Pie, the pinkest pony of the main cast, who is very girly.
** Fluttershy, who is very feminine, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin shy]] and gentle, has a pink mane and tail, as well as a partially pink cutie mark.
** Proper pink princess Cadance... who is nonetheless badass enough to singlehandedly defend her kingdom for days without sleep, and with assistance from her husband, she sent an enemy army flying over the horizon. Studio B likes to play with tropes, can you guess?
** Played straight by means of avoidance with the males. Although there are mares of every single color imaginable, there has yet to be a pink stallion.
* ''WesternAnimation/OscarAndFriends'': [[ImaginaryFriend Doris]] is pink. That's the only feminine thing about her.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' has Amity, the most traditionally feminine member of the main cast who often wears orchid due to being on the Abomination track at school, has pink as [[ColorCodedWizardry her personal magic signature]], [[spoiler:and dyes her hair lavender part way through season 2]].
* Subverted with ''WesternAnimation/ThePinkPanther'', who is male. Clothing merchandising has attempted to feminize him.
* [[SweetPollyOliver Surprisingly Curvaceous Pirate]] in ''WesternAnimation/ThePiratesInAnAdventureWithScientists'' wears a pink-and-white striped shirt.
* While Blossom is the only member of Franchise/ThePowerpuffGirls whose attire is pink, the girls' bedroom in general is pink.
* Lillian from ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'' wears a pink bow in her hair and is girly. While her dress is normally purple and white, sometimes it appears to be [[InconsistentColoring pink and white]].
* Ashley A. from ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'' usually has pink in all of her outfits.
* The protagonist's wife from ''WesternAnimation/{{Skywhales}}'' wore a pink version of the aliens' normal outfit.
* ''WesternAnimation/SolarOpposites'': Jesse wears a bowtie on her head and a pink dress with white polka dots.
* {{Invoked|Trope}} in the episode "Sleepover" of ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'', where it is revealed that [[PerkyGoth Janna]]'s favorite color is pink, but she can't admit it because she hates "contributing to gender stereotypes".
* PlayedWith on ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse''. On the one hand, pink is repeatedly used for [[PosthumousCharacter Rose Quartz]], the title character's MissingMom--she had [[ColorCodedWizardry pink magic]], [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation pink skin]] [[RoseHairedSweetie and hair]], and her [[HeartDrive gem]] was, of course, a pink rose quartz. On the other hand, [[KidHero Steven]] himself inherited that gem, so he has a collection of pink powers despite being TheOneGuy of [[OneGenderRace the whole Gem species]]. [[InTouchWithHisFeminineSide He doesn't seem to mind]]. Steven does have a number of stereotypically feminine qualities but isn't overtly effeminate.
* In ''WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake'', the title character is representative of the color pink, in her 1980, 2003, and 2009 incarnations.
* Milli from ''WesternAnimation/TeamUmizoomi'' has a pink dress with flowers, a matching helmet, pink tights/stockings and pink shoes as her default outfit. She's an action girl, so it's a subversion.
* Babs from ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' doesn't actually wear any pink clothing. She does, however, have [[AmazingTechnicolorWildlife pink fur]]. Shirley is the one who wears pink clothes, consisting of a shirt and a bow, for being a white loon.
* [[ThoseTwoGuys Katie and Sadie]] from ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' both wear pink short shorts and high-heeled sandals. In ''Revenge of the Island'', Dakota's regular outfit is entirely pink. Ella in Pahkitew Island because PrincessesPreferPink and she is a parody of a princess; the only parts of her outfit that aren't pink are her sleeves.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'':
** Arcee the female Transformer was ''all'' pink (okay, there were white highlights).
** Elita-One, the leader and most visible member of a team of girl Autobots, was also pink and white.
** DownplayedTrope in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'', in which Arcee is mainly blue with pink highlights.
* Bubblz from the Mondo TV version of ''WesternAnimation/TheTrashPack'' cartoon. Originally the male character Scum Gum in the toyline, the character was [[GenderFlip turned into a girl]] for this iteration of the show, not only to give a balance to girls in the show, but also because she's already a pink piece of chewed-up bubble gum.
* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender''. [[GirlyGirl Girly girl]] Allura wears pink armor, but on her home planet, Altea, people wore pink to honor the dead, and she wears it to honor the past paladins.
* Penelope Pitstop of ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces'', in which her car was also pink, and ''WesternAnimation/ThePerilsOfPenelopePitstop''.
* In ''WesternAnimation/WhateverHappenedToRobotJones'', the titular character's mother is a pink robot addressed as Mom Unit.
* Denita Donata, a female villain on ''WesternAnimation/WildKratts'', travels in a pink plane and a pink yacht.
* Played straight for Flora in ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'', she is very feminine and many of her fairy forms are primarily pink.
* In the {{Flashback}} episodes of ''WesternAnimation/WolverineAndTheXMen2009'', as a teenager Jean Grey was shown wearing a pink shirt (with purple and blue hair bands).
* ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'': Yadina, TheChick, has pink overalls.
* Jean in the 1990s ''WesternAnimation/XMenTheAnimatedSeries'' had a few pink outfits, like a pink evening mini dress, and in the FairyTale episode, her [[ShowWithinAShow fictional]] princess counterpart wore purple and pink.
