Squanchys

Squanchys are a fictional alien species from the animated television series Rick and Morty. They are characterized by their distinctive appearance, which includes a frog-like snout and a large, often slobbery, mouth. Squanchys are known for their peculiar vocalizations, often punctuated by the sound "squanch," which appears to be a form of interjection or greeting.

The most prominent Squanchy in the series is Birdperson's companion, who shares Rick Sanchez's name. This particular Squanchy is often depicted as loyal, albeit somewhat dim-witted, and prone to extreme emotional outbursts. He demonstrates a strong bond with Birdperson and frequently accompanies him on adventures.

Squanchys hail from the planet Squanch, though their home world is rarely explored in detail. Their culture and societal structure remain largely undefined, with most depictions focusing on individual characters rather than the species as a whole. Their biological functions are also a subject of humor, particularly their propensity for expelling bodily fluids. Despite their eccentricities, Squanchys are generally portrayed as good-natured beings, though their actions can sometimes lead to chaotic situations. Their presence in Rick and Morty often serves to add a layer of surreal humor and oddity to the narrative.
