Patchy the Pirate is the live-action host of SpongeBob SquarePants. He presents many special episodes and Nickelodeon commercials from his small home in North Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. His co-host is his sarcastic pet parrot Potty, who tends to start arguments and cause trouble. Patchy is portrayed by SpongeBob's voice actor, Tom Kenny, and first appears in the episode "Christmas Who?"
Patchy is the self-appointed president of the fictional SpongeBob SquarePants fan club, which he founded himself. His house is filled with SpongeBob-themed items such as plush toys, collectibles, bedspreads, and pillows. Patchy's other belongings are all pirate-themed, like a wooden boat on wheels that he uses instead of a car.
Not counting the main cast, Patchy is one of the show's most prominent figures. He has had the most screen time, individual lines, and major roles out of any supporting character. Nickelodeon's character guide bills him at the top of the supporting cast, and Tom Kenny has repeatedly named Patchy as his favorite secondary character.
