History VideoGame / PunkySkunk

* FinalBoss: Baddler.

* BigBad: Badler who is the leader of the BB Brigade. But although he is mentioned at the beginning of the game, you do not encounter until the end as the FinalBoss.

* SmellySkunk: One of the very few, if not the only video game that not only plays this trope straight, but it has a skunk as the protagonist as well. This trope is played straight as whenever Punky is in his normal mode, he will use his spray to attack enemies.

''Punky Skunk'' (also known as ''Cooly Skunk'' in UsefulNotes/{{Japan}}) is a rather old and [[SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove overlooked]] UsefulNotes/{{Playstation}} game with an interesting history. It was originally developed and planned to be released on the UsefulNotes/{{SNES}}, but it was decided that it would released on the Playstation instead because at the time, the Playstation had been out for a while and the SNES era was on its last legs. However, the prototype for the SNES version was eventually dumped in 2020. It was released in Japan in November of 1996. The game was eventually released in the UsefulNotes/UnitedStates, but it wasn't released until February of 1998, a year and a few months after its original release. Since it was released when most games were coming out in 3D, many people didn't think much of this game since SideView games were becoming far less common. Because of that, it's seen as a CultClassic by a handful of people.

* TotallyRadical: This is what the game was trying to pass itself as, while doing things with Punky that would be seen as this like roller skating, snowboard and paragliding. Even the boss fights against Commander Chew count as they all revolve around sports instead of actual fighting like most games. Downplayed somewhat, as despite that and his name, Punky's personality is
