Professor Pericles is the main antagonist of the Scooby-Doo franchise's eleventh television series Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated.

He is a scarred parrot who is the leader and former mascot of the original Mystery Incorporated, having betrayed the gang years ago to get the Planispheric Disk for himself, who seeks to free the Evil Entity to gain infinite power. He is also the evil counterpart of Scooby-Doo.

Professor Pericles is a genius; since his brain is no bigger than a cashew nut, this makes him, by comparison, uncannily intelligent, and he prides himself as "The Smartest Criminal Parrot in the World." He speaks with a distinct German accent. The purple parrot is shown to be deranged and slightly insane, given his appearance and demeanor. He also possibly suffered an inferiority complex, evidenced when Danny Darrow attacked the new Mystery Inc. and referred to one of them as a "big, fat, insensitive, insecure know-it-all," which most likely means Pericles. This trait may have originated from being the animal mascot, despite being the smartest one of the group, and also what allowed Mayor Jones to turn Pericles against his friends. Like most parrots, Pericles appears to have a liking for sunflower seeds.

It should be noted that Pericles is not always evil through and through from the beginning, as he used to be just as friendly and happy as Scooby during his younger days and was a good and helpful friend of the old Mystery Inc. until his ambitions and desire for the Planispheric Disk and absolute power corrupted him.

It is later revealed that all of his evil nature is a result of The Evil Entity's influence, and Pericles is shown to be actually friendly once The Evil Entity is removed from time and no longer influences him.

He was voiced by Udo Kier, who also played Yuri in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 and its sequel, Lorenzini in The Adventures of Pinocchio, Gitano Dragonetti in Blade, Zanrelot in Vier gegen Z (4xZ), Peter Straub in Call of Duty: WWII- Nazi Zombies and Dr. Krieger in the 2008 Far Cry movie.

The Villains Wiki is a mirror version to the Heroes Wiki and is dedicated to creating a database of all known villains from all media - ranging from Saturday morning cartoon shows of old to books, video games and comics. Without the villain, there is rarely a plot, and this wiki aims to showcase the characters we all love to hate. All are welcome to join in and contribute here, so long as edits are constructive, discussions are positive, and both are relevant to the subject of villains. For more information about how you can get started here, please check the "Helping Out" section below, and be sure to mind our "Rules and Policies." Thanks for stopping by!

Before contributing, please read our rules and abide by them. NO REAL WORLD EXAMPLES - in order to keep our wiki as neutral as possible we will no longer be allowing the creation of "Real World" articles, unlike fiction the real-world is rarely black and white in terms of morality and one man's "villain" can be another man's "hero" (no matter how wicked they may appear). As such we have decided to stop the practice of adding real-world articles to this wiki and are now catering exclusively to fiction, folklore and theological figures. NO FAN-FICTION - We do not allow fan-fiction on this wiki. Original content is to be kept on your user page. Only notable "fiction" (NOT OF ONES OWN MAKING) is allowed. If something is not found on KnowYourMeme.com or does not have videos on Youtube not made by the original author then it will be deleted on sight. Plagiarism - Any article added to this wiki must be of your own making. Articles found to be taken from other sites without permission will be deleted without warning.
