Johnny

General Information

Game Information

Chrono Trigger

Full Name: Johnny
Age: Indeterminate, possibly 400 years
Species: Robot
Home Time: 2300 A.D.
Home Area: Lab 32

Johnny is a fast-talking, speed-racin' robot of Lab 32, always looking for a good opponent and basking in the compliments he receives from his Proto 2 fan club. Sporting a mohawk and sunglasses, he's self-absorbed and highly competitive. When Crono and the party attempted to use the Jet Bike to cross the ruins, Johnny confronted the group and permitted them to use the bike on the condition that they race. The details of the event can be found at the Lab 32 Race entry. Should the party lose, they will be met with various put downs from THE MAN, as his fans call him. Beating him merely increases his desire to ride again.

While his characterization is somewhat shallow in Chrono Trigger, it's made much more in-depth through the Chrono Trigger OAV. Johnny's up to his old tricks in racing and loving the attention he gets, but a few surprises await -- in the form of a rampant Gato, an absent-minded Nu, and a hyperactive Poyozo. Of special mention is his haiku shortly before he's injured.

Johnny makes a cameo, though it is by no means indicative of his happy, edgy style. His defunct body is littered along the roadside near the enemy Highwayman.
