It can be seen on the title screen and as a weapon.

Patrick is seen drawing Timmy Turner, Arnold Shortman, and Otto Rocket with it in the second level. Two separate magic pencils appear in this video game. When skidding on the ground from a sudden stop of running in the Doodle Dimension, it makes a simple line that comes to life. This prompts SpongeBob to pull the magic pencil out and draw a bunch of simple doodles until Patrick draws SpongeBob, which is later revealed to be DoodleBob, who terrorizes the two by chasing them with the magic pencil. They both fight DoodleBob with the doodles the made of their own but they later turn against SpongeBob and Patrick after DoodleBob redraws them to look evil. He later kidnaps Patrick and brings him to a doodle castle and ties him on a flagpole. The tweet was a hit, and as of February, 2018, it has been retweeted over 13,000 times.SpongeBob then attempts to rescue Patrick and fight DoodleBob at the same time. The DoodleBob meme resurfaced in November of 2017 on Twitter with a picture of rapper Travis Scott holding a microphone above his head, much like DoodleBob in the original episode. In 2016, popular tweeter posted a tweet showing two street names that sounded like DoodleBob’s catchphrase, garnering many likes and retweets. The video garnered over 11 million views. That year, YouTuber Zetkero posted a video playing the game DoodleBob and the Magic Pencil, where DoodleBob’s signature sound “me hoy minoy” is prominently featured.

It wasn’t until 2013, however, that DoodleBob surfaced as a meme, when people on MemeGenerator began captioning pictures of the character. In the episode, he terrorizes Spongebob, trying to control the magical pencil.ĭoodleBob becomes a recurring antagonist in the series and was subsequently featured in both a Nintendo DS and cellphone game.

The character himself is a crudely sketched, black-and-white version of SpongeBob. SpongeBob creates DoodleBob after finding a magical pencil that makes drawings come to life. DoodleBob made his first appearance in the SpongeBob SquarePants episode “Frankendoodle,” which aired in 2002.
