Buttercup

Buttercup is the toughest, yet goofiest of The Powerpuff Girls known as "The Toughest Fighter." Her signature color is lime green and she is also best known for her aggressive and tomboyish demeanor and dislike of "girly" things. Her first appearance was in the short Whoopass Stew. She is the 'spice' of the trio.
