Polly Petunia Plantar is the main character of Amphibia, who is portrayed by Amanda Leighton.
Background[]
She is Sprig's polliwog sister who is an outgoing and fearless tadpole.
Personality[]
She loves adventure, monsters, and having fun with her family. Although she is young, she has the heart of an explorer. Upon meeting Anne, Polly was disappointed in the fact that she was not a ferocious monster.
She likes to attack stuff using either her flail and her rolling pin she named "Doris".
Physical appearance[]
Polly resembles a real-life tadpole, except she has arms instead of legs. She has tyrian purple skin and wears a yellow bow with light yellow polka dots.
In "The Shut-In!", Anne creates a human version of Polly in her imagination named Molly. She is a human of average height with slightly tan skin and shiny orange hair with bangs and a ponytail. She is dressed similar to Anne with a school sweater, pink undershirt and skirt. She wears dark pink boots, her signature yellow bow and a pink knapsack. She also had her wooden bucket on her left foot during her and Twig's (Sprig's) introduction. As of "True Colors" she has grown a pair of legs.
Prior getting her legs to this she moved in a wooden bucket filled with water and held together by a cylindrical steel frame. It has seen a fair amount of use apparent in its worn appearance.
Trivia[]
- Oddly enough, she seems content to have people not like her as revealed in "Cracking Mrs. Croaker" as she said "Mission Accomplished".
- Her name is fitting as she is a technically a pollywog.
- While sometimes Polly is seen in a small bucket of water, often times she will travel around without it.
- Ironically, despite being Sprig's younger sister, Polly's voice actress, Amanda Leighton, is much older than Sprig's voice actor, Justin Felbinger - older by almost 9 years.
- While Polly is shown lounging in a bucket of water, she is capable of hopping on land. While most tadpoles remain aquatic, there are a some that are semi-terrestrial, such as Beddome's Frog and Thoropa miliaris, and full terrestrial, such as Indirana semipalmata and Adenomera andreae. This would mean that Polly, and possibly by extension Sprig and Hop Pop, are semi-terrestrial.
- Through the series, Polly is shown to have a great like for candies. In the episode "Anne or Beast?", when Hop Pop sees her after eating candies, she exclaims to him "I don't have a candy problem! You have a candy problem!", implying that her like for candies is due to sugar addiction.
- In "Truck Stop Polly", it is revealed that middle name is Petunia.
