Oh boo hoo to you. That toy was never important to begin with.

~ Pinky mocking Oliver about his toy that was thrown in the trash.
Pinky the pig, or shortened to Pinky, is the main antagonist of FlopsyRailwayProductions's school project The Golden Rule. He, alongside Tyler, will return in some capacity in the four-parter video Barney Reboot tries to get his show on PBS Kids/Arrested/Grounded.
He is a bully at an unknown school who loved bullying Oliver and Hopper, and he is well known for stealing Oliver's new and rare toy, breaking it, and throwing it in the trash. However, it was revealed that the reason he did this is to unload his frustrations from the torment that his older brother Winky gave him by doing the same act.
When Pinky was younger, his favorite toy was stolen by his older brother Winky, and it was thrown in the trash can. After this, he smiled as he left the room. This left Pinky feeling upset.
The Golden Rule (school project)[]
Taking Oliver's favorite toy away[]
Pinky (along with Tyler) are first seen staring at Oliver's favorite, but rare toy in disgust. Pinky later takes the toy away, breaks it, then throws it in the trash can. He and Tyler then smile as they leave the room, feeling happy about themselves.
Meeting Oliver and Hopper at school for the second time[]
The next day, Pinky and Tyler meet Oliver and Hopper at the school. When the two arrive, Pinky and Tyler are disgusted about them coming. After Pinky saw Oliver with a sad facial expression, he mocked him over it. After Oliver asked Pinky why he would do such a thing, he simply replied that he likes being a bully for his own entertainment.
Realization and reconciliation[]
After Pinky realized that he wouldn't want to be as much of a jerk as Winky is, he and Tyler apologized to Oliver and Hopper, and they agreed that the important lesson for the day is to treat others the way he wishes to be treated.
Trivia[]
Pinky is the first (and only) villain to be used in a school project that was a puppet show.
He is mainly inspired by Ercole Visconti from the 2021 film Luca. Both are bullies at first, and are insecure. The only difference is that while Pinky felt remorse for what he did, Ercole does not.
FlopsyRailwayProductions wanted to have Pinky leave the school in humiliation, but when he went to look back at the script, it turned out to be different.
It is unknown what roles Pinky and Tyler will have in the 4-parter video Barney Reboot tries to get his show on PBS Kids/Arrested/Grounded.
In his puppet form, Pinky's voice is based off of American actor Woody Harrelson.
