History
He was first seen in The More Things Change: Part 2, as a member of Psyphon's Gang. He was instantly defeated by Armodrillo.
In Special Delivery, he came to Ben's house and tried to kill him for eating his father. Ben said that he is not the person he is looking for and defeated him as Echo Echo. He can be seen in Rad, when someone throws him and Bug-Lite out of the Black Hole.
In Mud is Thicker than Water, he, along with the other thugs, attacked a Plumber Ship. Later, with the other members of Psyphon's gang, he received highly advanced Plumber Tech from Gorvan. As the Plumbers and Ben arrived, he was defeated by Crashhopper.
In Cough It Up, he along with other bounty hunters was hired by Psyphon to get him a precious item. He was defeated by Spidermonkey and was banned from Undertown by Argit.
In Blukic and Driba Go to Area 51, he escaped from his cell and attacked Ben for eating his father. He was defeated by Luhley.
In No Honor Among Bros, he defeated a Bouncer at the Golden Fist Tournament but didn't make it to the finals. He was later amazed by an alien kid's strength.
In Universe Vs. Tennyson, he got out from jail thanks to Chadzmuth but was taken back after Perk Upchuck ate his flail and spit it onto him. Before they could have put him back to his cell, Chadzmuth helped him once again much to Ben's annoyance.
In Clyde Five, him and Liam attacked Ben, Rook and Clyde to get back the Mark 5 Nanoshift Enabled Exo-Armor. After Clyde rubbed Liam's neck and made him fall asleep, Thunderpig started to panic and stated that Clyde was a wizard. He grabbed Liam and ran away.

Trivia

- Also the way he greets Ben is similar to Inigo Montoya from the popular book/film The Princess Bride.
- He understands the Sotoraggians' language, since he was shown talking them in the Black Hole.
- He was also impressed by what Eighteight said when she tried to get Argit.
