About Ricochet[]

Ricochet worked as a sheriff in a Western setting called Hoop 'n' Holler, and is known as the fastest sheriff in the West due to his speed. Ricochet, true to his name, would bounce off all the walls yelling "ping-ping-ping!" Ricochet Rabbit's catchphrase consisted of three quick pings; "ping, ping, PING!", followed by him referring to himself in the third person; "Ricochet Rabbit!" The "Ping" is often mistakenly misquoted as a "Bing". In the episode "Rapid Romance", Ricochet clearly signs an autograph for a fan using the word "Ping".

Between him and his sidekick, Droop-a-Long Coyote, Ricochet is the leader of the pair, always running into action, and ready to bring criminals to justice. He's a friendly person, if slightly arrogant because of his reputation, and while considerably smarter than Droop-a-Long, he does have the occasional slips of judgement.

In addition to his speed, he also has a variety of trick bullets that he uses to capture criminals; some of them had things like ropes, a bullet that separated into smaller ones, and one with hammers.
