Perry does everything undercover so Phineas and Ferb won't find out what he has been doing. Perry is a superhero who stops Doofenshmirtz every time he tries to take over the Tri-State area. Perry is an undercover hero who tries to keep the world safe. Doofenshmirtz's couch and had once played with him while drenched in honey (' Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Across the 2nd Dimension', ' Bad Hair Day (Phineas and Ferb)').

He is shown to have a mischievous side, as he willingly peed on Dr. He is also serious while not undercover, even in front of Major Monogram when he does anything silly (' Jerk De Soleil', ' Boyfriend From 27,000 B.C.', ' Traffic Cam Caper', ' Skiddley Whiffers'). Perry is normally found acting like a mindless platypus in front of his owners, Ferb and Phineas. Povenmire uses different design styles for drawing Perry depending on how he is portrayed. In keeping with the show's general design scheme, Perry is constructed of geometric shapes in a style reminiscent of deceased Looney Tunes animator Tex Avery. Like the other characters of the series, Perry was structured simplistically to allow young viewers to easily draw him. The opening lyrics for the song describe Perry as a standard textbook definition of a platypus: 'a semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of action.'

They were nervous doing so, because, as Povenmire explained, 'Disney has a big history of music - what if they hate it?' Their reaction, however, was considered positive and the pair was asked to write a song for each episode, which they vehemently agreed to. The song, along with the number ' Gitchee Gitchee Goo' from the episode ' Flop Starz', was the first musical composition Povenmire and Marsh pitched to the Walt Disney Company. Perry has a theme song performed by Randy Crenshaw and Laura Dickinson and written by Povenmire and Marsh, who writes the majority of songs in the series. The animal was scarcely used in American animated programs, so the pair opined that Perry 'would not have to compete with preconceived notions that viewers might bring to a more conventional critter.' The blank storyboard they were given allowed them to 'make stuff up' since 'no one knows very much about. While choosing a species for Perry, Povenmire and Marsh wanted to keep in mind selecting one that was uncommon, an animal that kids could not 'pick out at a pet store and beg for.' They choose a platypus because of the animal's obscure and striking appearance. Looking simple and innocent is just Perry's way of keeping his cover as he fights against Dr. One example is the Chimney Elevator, in which he encounters Santa Claus. Perry has a lair under the Flynn-Fletchers' house which can be entered through various passages. Perry doesn't speak at all, apart from the growling noise he makes. When they adopted the platypus, he was given the name ' Bartholomew' before he was renamed 'Perry'.

The reason he was adopted was that, according to Phineas, Perry looked at both Phineas and Ferb at the same time. The Flynn-Fletcher family adopted Perry after Bucky’s disappearance. Carl was disguised as a lady with brown hair. Perry was adopted five years prior to the series’ events, at an animal shelter run by the O.W.C.A.
