- ―Clyde
Clyde is one of the four ghost enemies from the Pac-Man video game series. He runs the weekly Bad-Anon villains support group which is located in the ghost pen of the game Pac-Man. He is seen floating around when the other members of Bad-Anon leave his game.
Appearance
Clyde is a round, orange ghost with large, light blue eyes. He has a small mouth and the base of his body billows around him as he hovers, giving him his ethereal and ghostly appearance. When he's upset (or when Pac-Man eats one of the Power Pellets in his game), his body goes rigid, turns a bright blue, and his facial features turn ghostly white with a grimace.
Biography
Clyde: Orange and Finally in Charge
"Clyde, the orange ghost who—along with pals Inky, Blinky, and Pinky—has made PAC-MAN's life difficult. These days, old Clyde leads the weekly Bad-Anon meeting in his spare time."
Trivia
- Clyde is the only Pac-Man ghost to have a speaking line in the whole film.
- The first time he speaks, the DVD subtitles erroneously refer to him as "Blinky", which is actually the name of the red ghost. Further subtitles give him his correct name.
- Clyde's role as the leader and host of Bad-Anon is fitting, as his programmed nature during gameplay is to start off chasing Pac-Man, and then shy away when he gets too close. This makes Clyde the first self-aware, yet unwilling, video game Bad Guy, because Pac-Man was the first video game to have AI—and distinct personalities—for the villains (rather than having them move around at random or as a single synchronized block).[1]
- Clyde, Inky, Pinky, and Blinky make a brief appearance in Ralph Breaks the Internet
