Pete is a large anthropomorphic cat from the Classic Disney Shorts who is constantly causing trouble for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and Pluto (all of whom, ironically, he predatesnote that is, "precedes in time", not "preys upon", although a case can be made for the latter).Pete's brand of villainy has evolved subtly over the years, his intelligence is optional and his goals range from a simple con to taking over a country, but one thing remains the same in this selfish, menacing brute — Pete is up to no good. He gets what's coming to him with perfect Laser-Guided Karma, and yet he never learns.As a villain and antagonist, Pete's most notable trait to date is that he has never learned the difference between fear and respect. As opposed to many Disney villains who lust for power over a state, Pete is a bully who desires and settles with control over a small number of people; a goal that can never be accomplished since he has never displayed any self-control himself.He debuted in the Alice Comedies short "Alice Solves the Puzzle", and also appeared as a bear in some of the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoons. This makes him the oldest Disney character that is still in use today.Throughout his career, Pete has been voiced by Billy Bletcher, John Mc Leish, Pinto Colvig (better known as Goofy, or Bozo the Clown), Will Ryan, and Arthur Burghardt. His current official voice actor is Jim Cummings (the one who also voices Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Darkwing Duck).

Diabolical Dog Catcher: Pete was depicted as one in "The Mad Dog" (1932) and "The Worm Turns" (1937). Both times he tries to seize Pluto, and when Pluto resists, Pete resorts to actually trying to flat-out murder the dog with a shotgun!

Honor Among Thieves: In the Italian comics, Pete is traditionally a career criminal with a staunch belief in thieves' honor; in general, he looks down on thieves who steal from "colleagues" and treats making a living from law-abiding methods as a great shame.

Seadog Peg Leg: For most of the early thirties, when he was also known as Peg Leg Pete. It disappeared around 1936 in the theatrical cartoons, although it remained in the comics for some time after that. He retains the peg leg in Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers and in Mickey Mouse (2013).

Took a Level in Kindness
 Pete / int_3dcc914f
comment
Took a Level in Kindness: In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, where he's the kindest he's ever been. While a few early episodes had Pete be his usual mean self, he quickly became nicer and even outright friendly with Mickey and the gang, playing along with them on their adventures. When he does act up, he's usually just mischievous and is quick to apologize if he goes too far. It's justified given that Clubhouse is a show for preschoolers.

Adaptational Heroism
 Pete / int_3f45f1e6
comment
Adaptational Heroism: While Pete has traditionally been a truly evil villain, sometimes he's portrayed more heroically, or at least as a lesser evil to a different villain. In Goof Troop at least, he was a Jerkass, a Manipulative Bastard, and (as a result of the premise) an Abusive Parent, but he was also shown to have standards, fight against greater evils from time to time, and have a few Pet the Dog moments, making him more of an Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist or Anti-Hero. In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, he is played much more sympathetically due to the target audience being younger to the point where he's not even very mean and actually gets along with the other characters. Mickey and the Roadster Racers, a successor to the former show also has Pete in this as he still means well and usually ends up changing for the better if he's an antagonist in an episode. One episode of DuckTales had a gruff but outright heroic Pete who was only positioned as a potential villain as a Red Herring. A few incarnations of Pete in Epic Mickey depict them as Punch Clock Villains and are aware of it; they will help Mickey if it means it'll help Wasteland as a whole. The Mickey Mouse Comic Universe zigzags this because of Depending on the Writer. While usually a criminal, Pete is often an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain, shows a softer side with his canon girlfriend Trudy, and sometimes ends up in an Enemy Mine with Mickey against the Phantom Blot.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold
 Pete / int_4781adbb
comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: On occasion. Kingdom Hearts II and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse show a more sympathetic side for example. The latter show and a commentary feature on The Three Musketeers DVD implies that he's usually a case of Mean Character, Nice Actor. Also, every once in a while he'd slip into this role on Goof Troop but there more often than not he was just a Jerkass.

The Dragon: When played as a serious villain in a work where multiple such antagonists are present, Pete tends to play second fiddle to the true Big Bad but to stand above rank-and-file lackeys. He plays this role to Maleficent in Kingdom Hearts II, for instance, and serves as the Phantom Blot's main enforcer in Wizards of Mickey.

Villain Decay: He used to be truly evil in his early shorts, even kidnapping Minnie on occasion. But around the 1940s, his character was toned down to just a selfish Jerkass who, while still mean to Mickey and the gang, wasn't truly evil. He still has his moments of outright villainy, however. It seems to vary depending on what the setting requires. A domestic or Slice of Life setting will have him simply be a Jerkass, while a fantasy or adventure setting will feature more traditional villainy.

Abusive Parents: Zig-Zagged. On Goof Troop he can range from being a relatively distant but still concerned Bumbling Dad to a harshly verbally abusive slave-driver with his son. With his daughter he can range from spoiling her with love to being somewhat neglectful. In "Bellboy Donald", he was not abusive at all, but was useless.

Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: His marriage to Peg in Goof Troop certainly counts for this.

Freudian Excuse: During his Villain Song in Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers, we learn the reason why Pete has been so evil: because his mother didn't like him and he wanted to become king to impress her.

Perma-Stubble: Pete's once white-furred muzzle is now clean-shaven, except for bristly stubble to emphasize his often malignant and brusque character.

comment
Lighter and Softer: His Goof Troop characterization has him still be abrasive and less than honest, but far from being an actual villain. In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, he's far less malicious and much more mischevious. He's also on far better terms with the good characters.

 Pete / int_d5d976dd
comment
I Have Many Names: Peg-Leg Pete, Big Bad Pete, Pistol Pete, Black Pete, and Pete Pete, to name a few. In the Alice Comedies, he was known as Bootleg Pete, while as Oswald's nemesis, he was called Putrid Pete. He also has had names that did not contain Pete: e.g., Terrible Tom, Tiny Tom (in Officer Duck), Sylvester Macaroni (in Symphony Hour), and Al Muldoon (in How to Be a Detective).

Art Evolution: Pete started off as a bear, but was made into a cat in The Gallopin' Gaucho. He lost his long tail and shaved his muzzle in 1932, where he was given his current appearance.

Depending on the Writer
 Pete / int_fdc4fab4
comment
Depending on the Writer: Pete's brand of villainy tends to vary widely depending on the work in question — he's been seen as a calculating and scheming villain, a simple criminal thug, a relatively mundane Jerkass, a simple annoying foil, a Cranky Neighbor, or whichever other antagonistic role is needed, although he rarely tends to be the top villain when other bad guys are present. He had a peg-leg in his first appearance which has since come and gone.

My Future Self and Me: In Kingdom Hearts II, the party follows Pete into Timeless River, an area of the past modeled after the black-and-white Disney Cartoons. Here they also meet Pete as portrayed in Steamboat Willie, who even helps them fight Present!Pete and his army of Heartless.
