Mitchell "Mitch" Mitchelson is probably the best-known boy student at Pokey Oaks Kindergarten, the second being Elmer Skloo and Harry Pitt.

It is revealed in the episode "Gettin' Twiggy With It" that he lives in a trailer park with his grandmother, who frequently will sit in front of the TV 24/7 watching nothing but static. His parents either died or abandoned him. He is Buttercup's good friend at school according to her interview in The Powerpuff Girls Movie. In Gettin' Twiggy With It, however, Buttercup was against him torturing Twiggy. He wears a black shirt labeled 'Mitch Rocks' and yellow shorts. 

It is Mitch who had taught the girls how to play tag, as revealed in The Powerpuff Girls Movie, especially after Bubbles assumed that other kids were running from a girl because she was infected, and thought she (Bubbles) was infected when that girl tagged her.

Personality[]

"Blossom: You see, Mitch, the real monster isn't Twiggy.
Buttercup: Yeah! It's a punk named Mitch Mitchellson! "
— Blossom and Buttercup Gettin' Twiggy With It

Mitch is mischievous and can be a bully, especially to Elmer Skloo when it comes to his tendency to eat paste, and to Twiggy in "Gettin' Twiggy with It". Despite this, he can show a more lighthearted and softer side underneath his rowdy exterior, and tends to get along with the Powerpuff Girls (especially Butercup, where they share a close friendship with each other) when he's not being bratty. He's even considered nice enough to be on Santa Claus's good list.

Trivia[]

  • His whole name starts with the name "Mitch," Mitchell "Mitch" Mitchelson.
  • In the game Relish Rampage, Mitch once became a Pickloid Queen.
  • Mitch's name may have been derived from that of Mitch Mitchell, the former (now deceased) rock drummer for The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
  • The idea for Mitch came from a complaining kid during the test screening for "Meat Fuzzy Lumkins" who said that "whoever made this should be fired".
  • Mitch's voice actor, Tom Kenny, also voices the character SpongeBob SquarePants in the television show of the same name. Mitch's laugh is like a darker version of SpongeBob's; this is evidenced in Gettin' Twiggy With It. Sumo Sumouski from the 2014 series Clarence, shares the same actor, and his voice also has a raspy voice similar to Mitch's, but in a different tone.
  • His speech pattern is similar to that of Popeye the Sailor, and his laugh is also similar to Popeye's. By coincidence, Genndy Tartakovsky, one of the writers of the show, would later try to make a Popeye animated film for Sony Pictures Animation, which had Tom Kenny voice Popeye in an animation test.
  • He owns a radio-controlled car that bears a strong resemblance to Speed Buggy (used to torment the aforementioned Twiggy).
  • He could be a parody of Bart Simpson and Nelson Muntz from The Simpsons because both characters are bad boys and have bad behavior.
  • His personality bears a slight resemblance to Sid Phillips in the 1995 Toy Story movie.
  • Mitch was one of the few characters who didn't return in the reboot, although he did make a cameo in The Wrinklegruff Gals.
  • Mitch Mitchelson starred in three CN shorts produced by Primal Screen called 'Mitch Rocks'. In one short, he says that Popeye the Sailor's cool, as (aforementioned) he shares his laughter.
  • Error: Mitch Mitchelson cameos in the Villanos short 'Elmore' serving as the poster boy for Villainous summer camp program.
  • Mitch's appearance and personality resemble Montana Max from Tiny Toon Adventures and Sid Phillips from Toy Story. Just like Sid, he gets retribution from the ones he torments including Elmer Skloo and Twiggy.
  • According to the DVD Commentary of the Powerpuff Girls Movie, there would have been a scene in the movie where Buttercup tells Mitch he rocks, explaining why Mitch has a shirt named Mitch Rocks.
