Fronk is a character in the WarioWare series and a pet of 9-Volt's. He is part of the species of the same name. Fronk makes his first appearance in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!.

Physical description[]

Fronk is a small, yellow creature with a pixelated appearance, supposedly based on sprites from earlier games or pixel art in general. He has an identical appearance to his species, namely those who are also colored yellow,

In the WarioWare series[]

WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$![]

Chicken Race start

Fronk and 9-Volt starting Chicken Race in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!

Here, he is named Shag, but would later be renamed Fronk in subsequent appearances due to Shag being a vulgar word in British English. Shag is seen during 9-Volt's third intermissions, where he is pet by 9-Volt, causing him to sweat. Fronk also appears in the two-player game Chicken Race, where he competes against 9-Volt.

WarioWare: Twisted![]

Fronk has his own set of microgames titled Frantic Fronk. However, unlike the other microgame hosts, Fronk's microgames randomly appear in any stage starting with Jimmy T.'s, although they are more likely to show up in later stages. Fronk's microgames have a shorter time limit than the others and therefore require quicker reaction.

WarioWare Gold[]

During 9-Volt's stage, Fronk tries to help 9-Volt do math in class by telling him to see it as a role-playing game. As the player plays through 9-Volt's microgame set, both Fronk and 9-Volt make their way through an RPG-style map that presumably appears within 9-Volt's imagination.

Similar to WarioWare: Twisted!, Fronk has his own set of microgames but does not have his own stage for them. In Story mode, his microgames appear at random during the Dancing Team and Potluck Gang stages.
