Timothy Jackson "Tim" Drake (also known as Robin, Red Robin or Dark Robin) is a minor character in Teen Titans Go! who made a debut in "The Best Robin." In addition, he is a current member of Team Robin. He is voiced by Scott Menville.
Bio[]
Tim Drake became the third Robin after the death of Jason Todd, which is alluded to by an urn being labelled "Robin II," in "Sidekick." At some point, he joined a team full of other Robins called Team Robin.
Physical Appearance[]
There is not too much of a difference between Tim Drake and Dick Grayson - their costumes are the same and yet different; Tim Drake's is red and yellow with a black cape, while Dick has green gloves and pants. His hair is combed downwards, and his mask looks more sinister and serious.
Abilities[]
As a normal human being, Tim Drake does not have any powers, like Robin. However, Tim seems to have the same abilities Robin has.
- Peak Human Strength: Surpasses the average human in terms of strength, endurance and stamina. He can easily perform multiple chin-ups, as well as dislocate and relocate his arm with one hand.
- Skilled Hand-to-Hand Combat: Like all the Robins, Tim is skilled in hand-to-hand combat.
- Pain Tolerance: Tim is able to dislocate and relocate his elbow with minimal discomfort.
- Masseur: This seems to be a trait original to himself. He is able to give massages, as he gave both Raven and Starfire one.
