Pancake Cookie

Pancake Cookie (팬케이크맛 쿠키 Pancake Flavor Cookie) is a Cookie that first appeared in LINE Cookie Run. He was one of the last releases of the game, with only Wind Archer Cookie and Moon Rabbit Cookie coming after him, discluding the release of Rebel Cookie, who had existed for three years prior to being released in LINE version. He has since appeared in every Cookie Run game aside from Cookie Run: Puzzle World, usually featuring as either an initial or very early release into the games due to his popularity. He was consistently a relatively high rarity in each game until Cookie Run: Kingdom, where he was demoted to being a Rare.

He is a small Cookie in a full-body kigurumi resembling a brown flying squirrel. The "wings" of his kigurumi resemble half-pancakes, with the sleeves themselves appearing to drip like syrup. The kigurumi is clasped together with a small purple berry in the middle of it, matching his purple eyes. His white hair (made to resemble whipped cream) peeks out from underneath the top of his hood, which has little eyes and a mouth on it, as well as two butter pats, one on each side, which resemble ears.

Many of Pancake Cookie's skills throughout the games reflect his ability to glide, as well as his obsession with Acorn Jellies. In LINE and Cookie Run: OvenBreak, he jumps into the air and glides, collecting Sunflower Jellies, Sunflower Seed Jellies, and Acorn Jellies. In OvenBreak, he was also given the ability via Magic Candy to briefly glide through obstacles without waiting for his full skill charge, allowing him to get out of sticky situations or last a little longer with no Energy. In CookieWars, due to his glide, he could be placed anywhere on the map (as he would fall out of the sky), including the enemy's side of the field, which made him a dangerous force in PVP. In Kingdom, his skill resembles an airstrike: he flies overhead of enemies and throws acorns down on them, which does area damage and boosts the party's Attack Speed.

Personality
Pancake Cookie is a young and childish Cookie, often vying for attention and clamoring for Acorn Jellies. His interests lie mostly in collecting and eating said Acorn Jellies, though he also loves to glide around and enjoys playing with others. He is prone to begging for what he wants due to being young, though he can be helpful and determined when he sets his mind to it.

Story and Event Involvement
Pancake Cookie has little to no involvement in LINE or CookieWars, outside of a Pancake Jelly Walker being mistaken for him in the latter.

In OvenBreak, Pancake Cookie appears in the storyline for Dreamy CookieLand!, being friends with Apple Cookie. The two decide to go into the abandoned amusement park, bringing along some other children, where they proceed to meet Piñata Cookie, Firecracker Cookie's friend, and Cream Unicorn Cookie, a magical Cookie who lives in the amusement park. He, along with the other Cookies, play with Cream Unicorn Cookie, and are eventually briefly trapped in the park when Cream Unicorn Cookie panics at the thought of being abandoned for years again. After they explain to Cream Unicorn Cookie that they can't stay forever, they are let go, and all of them return with even more friends to play at the park.

In Kingdom, Pancake Cookie is included in two Bonds, Night of Tricksters and I Want to Fly. In the former, he causes chaos with Cherry Cookie and Gumball Cookie, ruining a festival with their childish antics. He steals Jellies as the other two cause various explosions, which causes a large mess that the Cookies attending the festival end up cleaning up. This also causes people to be fearful of the trio. The latter Bond has Angel Cookie ask Pancake Cookie how to fly, at the expense of Acorn Jellies. He does help, becoming invested in helping Angel Cookie, with it being stated that the lessons are still continuing to the current day.

He also appears during Custard Cookie III's substory in Custard Cookie III's dream, wherein he fights with Gumball Cookie, requiring the small royalty to break the fight up.

Roll Cake Cookie
Roll Cake Cookie is Pancake Cookie's older brother, whom Pancake Cookie always seems to want to play with. In return, Roll Cake Cookie is usually frustrated with him, and angry about how he isn't as cute as his younger brother, wishing that he was also lovable. Despite this, they are still family, and occasionally appear together, including a brief nod to their brotherhood on the Dreamy CookieLand! splash screen, where Roll Cake Cookie makes an appearance despite not being included anywhere in the actual event due to this being the event where Pancake Cookie received his Magic Candy.

Reception
Pancake Cookie was first released into LINE Cookie Run, very shortly following after his brother, Roll Cake Cookie, was released, only having Banana Cookie released between the two. He was met with extremely positive reception, quickly becoming a very popular Cookie. This has made him a frequent choice to get added into various later Cookie Run games as a base release, as his cute looks remained consistently popular over the years, and he has been used frequently on promotional material for the series.
