Odd Della Robbia

Odd Della Robbia (first voiced by Christophe Caballero and then Matthew Géczy) is the prankster of the group, acting less serious and more carefree than the others in any given situation. This attitude extends to most forms of danger, which Odd only seems to take seriously when responsible for the welfare of others. While Odd doesn't appear to be a serious student, he maintains a 75% average at one point, apparently aided by high art scores as well as his propensity to copy the papers of others during those tests he actually attempts to pass. During his free time, he prefers to work on guitar, film, drawing, other forms of art, as well as skateboarding, and trying to find his one true love. For the 1st and 2nd season he is 13-years-old and in 8th grade. In the 3rd and 4th he is 14 and in 9th grade.

Odd has long hair spiked to a peak, with a splotch of purple in the center (except for in the prequel episode, Xana Awakens, in which he wore his hair down until after the first time he had been to Lyoko, calling it 'Lyoko style.'). The first of Odd's two outfits in the series consists of a long-sleeve shirt and bellbottom pants, and platform shoes. His hair is styled into a large point in the same fashion as his hair on Lyoko. He also has a purple diamond on the front of his hair (which is naturally that color, as seen in both "Unchartered Territory" and "Revelation"). In the fourth season, his outfit consists of a purple hooded sweatshirt with a pink shirt underneath, purple bellbottoms, and dark red-orange shoes. His night clothes are red and yellow, not purple, and probably due to the fact he did not buy them (orange boxers/boxer briefs and a red shirt).

Odd considers himself to be something of a ladies' man, having managed to date almost every (similarly aged) girl at the school in the two years he's been attending it, sometimes two at a time. A recurring theme in the series is Odd attempting to impress one girl or another, if he is not already dating them. He even tends to flirt with Aelita throughout the series, and even kisses her in "Replika". He has shown a close attachment to a girl named Sam that doesn't attend his school, but these feelings might have changed as she withheld information from Ulrich about a Xana attack.

Another recurring theme, though less prevalent, are jokes about Odd's size in comparison to his eating habits. Despite eating two or three portions at every meal, Odd never gains weight or height, being the shortest member of the group, which is somewhat disguised by his platform shoes and hairstyle. The school nurse attributes this to Odd's high metabolism. His feet also smell.

Odd has a pet dog named Kiwi, which he keeps in his room regardless of the school's policy. Despite the rule against dogs, most of the students know about it. Odd also shares a room with Ulrich. The others have their own rooms or live at home. This occasionally results in arguments between the two on roommate-related issues. In "Distant Memory", it is revealed that Odd has five sisters.

On Lyoko, he is dressed as a self-described "giant purple cat." The outfit is almost identical to the one he wears in the real world color-wise, but has no sleeves and is generally closer-fitting. To complete the "giant cat" motif, Odd only has four fingers (three digits and a thumb), complete with claws, and a tail. His forehead and cheeks also have purple markings on them. In the fourth season, he receives a new outfit almost identical to the previous one, except being a slimmer full-body suit, with slightly altered highlights, and with cat ears in addition to his human ones. His vehicle is the Overboard, a similarly-themed, two-tone, purple and pink hoverboard. His cat themed suit creates a bit of irony, seeing as he is presumed to be more of a dog person. On the front of his Lyoko suits (both of them) there is a picture of Kiwi.

Odd's gloves are equipped with arrow launchers, which are his main weapon. Odd prefers to attack from long-range, using his accuracy to destroy monsters out of harm's way, but will often fight close-quarters in order to get a shot in. In the first season, he can only fire 10 arrows in one setting, but eventually gains the ability to fire as many as 10,000 with a reloading program created by Jeremy. Odd's powers vary between seasons. In the first season, Odd has the ability to see into the future, though not at will and only for short periods. The ability (as explained in the third season episode "Triple Trouble") was lost in the second season when Jeremy improved their abilities and described it "useless" despite the fact that it's saved them many times. In exchange, Odd gets an arm-mounted energy shield which appears when he summons it. His claws also allow him to climb up objects with ease. In the third season episode "Triple Trouble", Odd temporarily gained the power to teleport, but the program bugged up, causing him to duplicate himself both where he was when he teleported and where he teleported to. This led to particle disintegration after an extended period of time, thus forcing Jeremy to remove the power. Odd also knows the name of every new Monster XANA creates.
