"I'm in the dark, here!"
~Pancho
Pancho is a male crowned lemur and a recurring character from All Hail King Julien and The Penguins of Madagascar.
All Hail King Julien[]
Pancho is an over-reactor (according to himself), is sometimes obnoxious, and has a bit of a temper. He will show bravery at times, such as when he backed up Ted when everyone was threatened by Fred the scorpion, and the other times he verbally stood up to bullying characters. He is shown to have a lack of guilt and criminal aptitude throughout the series and doesn't always commit crimes alone. Pancho is also sometimes easy to fool, shown when Mort asked him to whisper Ted and Dorothy's names into his diaper, which, unbeknownst to Pancho, had a recorder machine in it. Xixi had even mentioned on her show that Pancho had been seen "canoodling with a new mystery lady". Pancho has also been married twice. Pancho has no memory of whether or not he had a family, because King Julien XI erased his and other agents' memories for The Footstool Program. King Julien XI forced them to become trained killers, to target at his enemies. Pancho however, for some reason, was never killed along with the other agents when King Julien XI grew bored with the program. During his hypnotic state partially caused by King Julien XI, he believes that the designs on a gunny sack are his family. Though he seems to care more or less for the other citizens, he takes pleasure in and shows no remorse in stealing, attempted extortion, scamming, and even crimes of a violent nature. Currently, Pancho seems to have the closest relationship with is his energetic, charismatic partner-in-crime, Andy Fairfax, who isn't a lemur but a flying fox bat.
The Penguins of Madagascar[]
Pancho was transferred from Madagascar to the Central Park Zoo at the beginning of the second season of The Penguins of Madagascar. in the episode "Moon Lemurs", when Julien was ready to be the first lemur to walk on the moon, he leaves Pancho in charge while he's away. "In the episode "Easy Tiger", Pancho is targeted as a victim of Banzou, who was brainwashed as a savage killer by Becky and Stacy. In the episode "The Terror of Madagascar", Pancho is terrified at the sight of a baby fossa, who was transferred to the Central Park Zoo as zoo-to-zoo tour, and plans to get rid of him. In "Dr. Blowhole and the League of Villains", He snuck onto Dr. Blowhole's warship to save the penguins.
