I thought of sharing this topic here. This is basically where I'm going to make a page about this series' Ensemble Dark Horse characters. This is similar to the Ensemble Dark Horse page on TV Tropes for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Now a lot of you are thinking, "Well Belchic, why don't you just add this to the TV Tropes page for 101 Dalmatians?" I've already tried that a couple times, but each time I did, the editors always deleted it because they felt it was too "conversational". So in the mean time, I'm posting it here, where I know it'll be aloud.
So, here is my trope page for Ensemble Dark Horse Characters in 101 Dalmatians:
* No conversation of dark horse would be complete without mentioning Two-Tone. She is without a doubt the most popular Dalmatian in the series, in fact so popular that fans felt she deserved to be the fourth main pup instead of Spot. She's mainly popular for her unique spot pattern and tomboyish personality. She usually appears in the background in most episodes but has had some speaking parts in a few episodes. Her claim to fame was the episode, "Love 'Em and Flea 'Em" where she played a major role and was in a romantic relationship with Lucky.
* In a similar fashion, Patch has become quite popular despite looking much differently than he does in the movies. Most fans prefer his movie design because it's cuter, but his series look is closer to Dodie Smith's depiction of him.
* Tripod has a fairly large fan base. A lot of fans, for whatever reason, like to pair him up with Cadpig despite the fact that neither of them conversed with each other at any point in the series.
* Mooch, the farm bully, both loved and hated by fans alike.
* Wizzer and Dipstick both seem to have a lot of fans. Often depicted as bullies since they're usually seen hanging out with Mooch. They're also well known for having big parts in the live action films and the video games.
* Rebecca was a one shot character, but she became a mega fan favorite for all the same reasons as Two-Tone. Although, the fact that she became a love interest of Lucky's caused a lot of fan pairing wars.
* Ivy, Cruella's niece, is the single most popular antagonist.
* Amber, Anita's niece, despite only appearing in one episode, has gotten quite a cult following.
* Jewel is a Dalmatian pup who did not appear once in the series, but she has appeared a lot in fan art with a particular fan depiction. Fans speculate that if Jewel was a character in the series, she'd have a valley girl personality.
* Pretty much every Dalmatian pup with a name who didn't appear in the series has a fan base of some kind (e.g. Penny, Pepper, Freckles, Fidget, etc.), Penny especially, considering she had a fairly big role in the animated movie and was originally intended to be one of the main pups in the series (in some countries, she's in place of Cadpig).
