Appearance/History

Tucker's first appearance came in "Mystery Meat" as one of two friends of Danny Fenton. He's constantly helped out Danny, mostly through the use of his PDA in which he could hack into various technological systems such as in "One of a Kind", when he hacked into Skulker's gauntlet or Technus' techno suit. He is also a meat fanatic, his perferred choice of food (he refuses any vegetation--enough that he had diaherria since his digestive system couldn't ingest it in "Infinite Realms"). Exposed to its content have caused him to develop a keen sense of smell finely attuned to it. He gravely fears hospitals, doctors, and nurses and as a result never never visits the Casper High School nurse (bypassing it requires bagging his head to avoid eye contact).

Danny and Tucker argue when he briefly has ghost powers of his own.

In "What You Want", Tucker expressed jealousy over Danny's ghost power, wishing for ghost powers of his own and gaining them unknowingly through Desiree, the wishing genie ghost. Tucker's powers quickly consumed him until Danny put a stop to it, eventually restoring him back to normal through the use of the Fenton Dreamcatcher.

In a later episode, "King Tuck", Tucker tries unsuccessfully to run for school president against the popular Dash. On a visit to the museum, Tucker notices he resembles the pharaoh located there. Hotep-Ra, a mummy ghost, noticing this, hands Tucker the ancient sceptor in which Tucker creates an Egyptian world with him as ruler and the teachers and students as his servants. Danny was forced to once again rein in his over-eager best friend. King Tuck is the thirty-fifth episode of the TV-series Danny Phantom. ...

Personality and Weakness

Tucker is optimistic, light-hearted, extremely intelligent and a joker. Tucker enjoys talking, but often does not know when to keep his mouth shut, causing him to blurt out more than he should or cause trouble for his friends. His cloying, appealing nature is not popular with the other students of Casper High, however; he generally has a bad reputation amongst them.

Tucker is a valuable friend to Danny throughout the series; in "Fanning the Flames" when Danny ia brainwashed by Ember McLain, he comes through to save the day. He has also used his technological knowledge to defeat various barriers ranging from hacking into Technus' technological to setting off security alarms. He is loyal, from braving his fear of hospitals by entering one to save Danny ("Docter's Disorder") to spying on Sam for Danny when she briefly dated Gregor/Elliot ("Double Cross My Heart") to sharing just about anything with Danny. Tucker has also shown to be rather observant as he quickly notices Sam's crush on Danny. Fanning the Flames is the eleventh episode of the TV-series, Danny Phantom. ... Double Cross My Heart is the thirty-ninth episode of the TV-series Danny Phantom. ...

Tucker as a pharaoh.

Tucker is mildly flirtatious and particularly interested in girls, though his every attempt to get noticed by one has failed. Tucker's most serious crush was on Valerie Gray beginning in the episode "Parental Bonding", but which ended shortly afterwards in "Shades of Gray" in failure and a near disastrous attack on Danny. Despite his numerous rejections, Tucker still considers himself to be highly desirable. Image File history File linksMetadata TuckerisPharoah. ...

Valerie Gray is a fictional character from the Nickelodeon animated television series Danny Phantom, and one of Dannys few human adversaries. ... Parental Bonding is the second episode of Danny Phantom. ... Shades of Gray is the tenth episode in the TV-series Danny Phantom. ...

Tucker's first love, however, is technology for he cannot live without it - to the point that his greatest fear is life without technology and his trusty PDA's... and clothes. It is revealed in "One of a Kind", after Skulker steals one of his PDAs that he has more than one; in "Micro Management" he went to great lengths to get the latest technology, in this case the latest PDA (only to find out it was a fake). Tucker's PDAs are the most useful item of technology used to aid Danny's ghost hunting and fighting exploits, next to the inventions of Jack and Maddie Fenton. By the mid 20th century humans had achieved a mastery of technology sufficient to leave the surface of the Earth for the first time and explore space. ... Fear is a powerful, unpleasant feeling of risk or danger, either real or imagined. ... Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are handheld computers that were originally designed as personal organizers, but became much more versatile over the years. ...

One of his greatest weaknesses is a tendency to abuse his relationships with his friends once he is in a position of power. Tucker has an inferiority complex where his friends are concerned, and whenever Tucker becomes empowered through a ghostly wish or otherwise, he tends to turn on his friends. This suggests a power-hungry and volatile side to the otherwise placid Tucker. At one point, Tucker was even perfectly willing to kill Danny at the behest of his wish-granting ghost benefactor. He is seen as irresponsible with power, using it for personal pleasure rather than the more righteous reasons Danny wields his with.

Sam Manson

They are good friends, sharing the responsibilities of keeping the burdened friend down to earth, but are opposites to each other in terms of temperament. Tucker is the first to note Sam's feelings for Danny, but he does not make much out of it. There have been a few hints throughout the series that he may have some feelings for Sam as well. Sam Manson is a fictional character in the Nickelodeon animated television series Danny Phantom. ...

Trivia

• In "Teacher of the Year", Tucker's username for the online computer game Doomed is Fryer-Tuck as well as his taste for meat. This could be a reference to the Robin Hood character, Friar Tuck.

• Tucker has quite a few things in common with Cookie from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. Both are similar-looking cyber geeks who wear glasses and who are both African American.

• It has been revealed[1] by creator Butch Hartman that the origin of Tucker's name is from the combined last names of actor Chris Tucker and Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy's character fromBeverly Hills Cop.)

• Apparently, Tucker still needs water wings as seen in Lucky in Love.

• His name Tucker is English for Tucker of cloth.
