Skrunch

"Hey, it was mating season, how was I to know she was your sister!"

- Captain Qwark to Skrunch

Skrunch, a Cyclophic Monkey, was Captain Qwark's monkey sidekick, and wore a Q-Force suit. He came from Florana. He became Vice President Skrunch under the leadership of Galactic President Qwark of the Polaris Galaxy.

Up Your Arsenal
He was introduced in Up Your Arsenal when Ratchet and Clank found the monkey in the forest with Captain Qwark. Skrunch had a sister in the forest who, apparently, "mated" with Captain Qwark. He joined the Q-Force and provided help to Clank in exchange for bananas using the BGAMD, and beat Big Al in the promotion to the Starship Phoenix's Chief Science Officer, described as the best primate for the job. On planets where Ratchet used the Turbo Slider, such as on Tyhrranosis, Skrunch controlled the vehicle's gun. Skrunch also appeared in Secret Agent Clank (show) as Ratchet's replacement and was seen in the Terror of Talos. He was also seen in the Secret Agent Clank film in Up Your Arsenal, in which Clank fired the BGAMD at Maximillian and Skrunch jumped into his helicopter, causing Maximillian's destruction.

Later games
In Size Matters Skrunch's mind was swapped with Emperor Otto Destruct's causing Skrunch to be a highly intelligent Cyclophic Monkey. In turn, Otto Destruct received a monkey mind, thus defeating him.

In Tools of Destruction it was revealed that he attended the Kerwan school of quantum mechanics in Metropolis.

Skrunch appeared in Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One as both a picture on Qwark's desk in office as the Galactic President of Polaris and the Vice President of Polaris.
