Daxter (Jak and Daxter)

Daxter is the secondary protagonist of Jak and Daxter video game series. He was voiced by Max Casella.

Why He’s Orange Lightning

 * 1) He is a memorable and very funny video game sidekick. He inspired some traits of Clank from Ratchet & Clank.
 * 2) Whenever Jak dies in The Precursor Legacy and 3, he makes hilarious comments towards Jak such as “Say good night, Jak” or “I’m glad I’m not your stunt double”.
 * 3) He had his own spin-off game for the PlayStation Portable in 2006 and it was pretty good. It helped show how Daxter was able to rescue Jak after they first arrived at Haven City.
 * 4) After yapping about pants in the first two games, he finally gets a pair of pants in the end of 3.
 * 5) He had good chemistry with Jak and his love interest Tess. Tess later fell in love with him and eventually became an Ottsel.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He was somewhat flanderized in The Lost Frontier and became Dark Daxter.
 * 2) Daxter can be a little annoying. His voice could get on peoples’ nerves.

Trivia

 * Daxter appears as a DLC character for Pain.
