Trivia

  • The Pidge/Chip relationship was invented for Voltron. Pidge is based on a Beast King Golion character, whereas Chip is based on a Dairugger character. The two Japanese series continuities' are completely unrelated.
  • Chip's last name may not be "Stoker" like Pidge.
    • In the Voltron: Defender of the Universe cartoon continuity, Pidge and Chip were adopted from an orphanage by the same family, so in that continuity they might share a last name, except that the cartoon didn't provide last names for any Voltron team members (Lion or Vehicle).
    • In the DDP comics continuity, Pidge and Chip did not know each other prior to the two Voltron teams' meeting, thus we can assume they did not grow up in the same family, and do not have the same last name.
