'''Princess Bonnibel "Bonnie" Bubblegum''' (often called '''PB''' and occasionally '''Peebles''', '''Bub-Bubs''', or '''P-Bubs''')<ref>http://www.movieweb.com/comic-con/2011/news/sdcc-2011-exclusive-adventure-time-cast-interviews</ref> is one of the main characters of the series ''[[Adventure Time]]'' and first appeared in the [[animated short]].

Princess Bubblegum is the current incarnation of the '''[[Elementals|Candy Elemental]]''', comparable to the inhabitants of the Candy Kingdom, who are all composed of types of desserts and candies. She rules over the [[Candy Kingdom]], but in the Season 6 episode "[[Hot Diggity Doom]]" (the first part of the season's finale), an election was held and she lost to the King of Ooo by a landslide. As a result, she no longer ruled the Candy Kingdom and the [[King of Ooo]] replaced her as the new ruler until a rebellion against King of Ooo allowed her to reclaim the throne in "[[The Dark Cloud]]". As of the [[Come Along With Me|Series Finale]], Princess Bubblegum and [[Marceline]] have resumed their romantic relationship, and she is currently Marceline’s girlfriend again.

==History==
===Backstory===
[[File:AD-BN.68.png|thumb|left|Bonnibel leaves the Mother Gum]]
Princess Bonnibel Bubblegum was formed as a part of a massive, blob-like hive mind made of pink gum known as the [[Mother Gum]] in the years immediately following the [[Mushroom War]],<ref name="bonnie and neddy">"[[Bonnie and Neddy]]"</ref> which spread out across the destroyed city and first appeared in "[[Simon & Marcy]]". In the aforementioned episode, the Mother Gum served as an ally for the titular characters by providing [[Simon]] with the soup he wanted for the young [[Marceline]]. In a flashback from "[[Bonnie and Neddy]]" taking place over 800 years before the events of the show, she and her brother [[Neddy]] drop from the ceiling of an abandoned building where the Mother Gum is now resting.

As shown in the final cutscene of the game ''[[Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!]]'', after she emerged from the gum, she learned to think, feel, and be independent. Her sentient "parents" remained far beneath the [[Candy Kingdom]], as a massive blob of bubblegum. They were eventually released into [[Ooo]] after they were defeated.

[[File:Bonnibel Bubblegum 012.png|thumb|left|200px|Young Bonnibel scavenging]]

As a child, roughly 800 years before the events of the series, Bonnibel was living in the post-apocalyptic wasteland that Ooo was. Living in a hideout next to a radioactive river (which would later become the place the [[Candy Kingdom]] was built) with only her brother, she longed for more family members, thus creating [[Uncle Gumbald]], along with [[Lolly|Aunt Lolly]] and [[Crunchy|Cousin Chicle]]. She had planned for them to fit specific archetypes to create a family dynamic and make her life less lonely, however, Gumbald soon revealed to his niece that he had plans to build a candy city. Bonnie, disliking this plan, created [[Lake Butterscotch]] in place of the site where her uncle wanted to build apartments. Gumbald, infuriated by this, began to devise a plan to get rid of his niece and take control over the family. Sending Bonnibel away on a date with [[Mr. Cream Puff]], whom Gumbald had created himself, he, along with Lolly and Chicle, discussed the plan to overthrow Bonnibel and build their candy city. During this discussion, Gumbald showcased his new creation: "Dum-Dum Juice," a serum to turn Bubblegum into a docile and simple-minded candy subject like Mr. Cream Puff. Gumbald then tricked Lolly and Chicle into eating cupcakes laced with the serum, turning the two into a cheerful and simple-minded [[Manfried|piñata]] and [[Crunchy|candy ball]] respectively. When Bonnibel returned from her date, Gumbald attempted to transform her as well, but this ultimately failed, as Bonnie managed to cause the serum to spill onto Gumbald's face, turning him into [[Punch Bowl|a punch bowl]].<ref name="bonnibel bubblegum">"[[Bonnibel Bubblegum (episode)|Bonnibel Bubblegum]]"</ref>

Bonnie decided that the trio was best left as candy people, as she claimed they seemed happier in their simple-minded and obedient new forms and declared herself as their "princess." Since then, the majority of the princess's subjects she created were loyal to her and simple-minded, likely to prevent any future incidents similar to the one with her created family members. She eventually build her kingdom and created more [[Candy People]], calling her kingdom the Candy Kingdom.

===The Candy Kingdom ===
At one point she befriended [[Shoko]], one of Finn's past lives. Originally, Shoko was sent by the [[Bath Boy Gang]]'s [[Bath Boy Gang leader]] to steal [[Princess Bubblegum's amulet]] and sneaks into her castle by knocking herself unconscious and saying it was by the Bath Boy Gang. Bubblegum "rescues" her and brings her inside the kingdom, and treats her wounds. Shoko opens up about her childhood and the two bond. Shoko considers staying with Princess Bubblegum and adopting a normal life, but a spy from the Bath Boy Gang threatens to tell the Bath Boy Gang leader that she abandoned the job, which would result in her death. Fearing for her life, Shoko "pretends" to beat up the spy, resulting in high praise of her combat ability from Princess Bubblegum. Bubblegum then requests Shoko's help on creating the first [[Gumball Guardian]]s. Afterwards she tells Shoko she has a surprise for her, ordering young [[Peppermint Butler]] to bring out a wooden box where she reveals she has made a mechanical arm for Shoko to replace the one her parents sold. Shoko starts to tear up and makes the excuse that she has to go back to her room. Later, Shoko sneaks into Princess Bubblegum's room and reaches for her amulet. However, a Gumball Guardian catches her in the act, setting off an alarm and waking up Princess Bubblegum. Shoko panics and swipes the amulet off of Princess Bubblegum's neck and jumps onto a platform below. However, Shoko is blasted by the Gumball Guardians' laser eyes, causing her to fall into a river of green, toxic chemical waste below her. Princess Bubblegum orders the Gumball Guardians to rescue her, but when one of the Gumball Guardians places his hand into the toxic waste, it is burned off. Princess Bubblegum tells them to take a break for the night as she looks on in sorrow. Bubblegum watches on for a few more moments before turning her back on the toxic waste river.<ref>"[[The Vault]]"</ref>

[[File:Marcy-Bonnie break up.png|thumb|220px|Bubblegum and Marceline break up]]

===Meeting Marceline===
Centuries before the beginning of the series and some time after the foundation of the Candy Kingdom, Princess Bubblegum met and befriended Marceline the Vampire Queen, eventually entering into a romantic relationship with her. This is also when she got her beloved [[Princess Bubblegum's Rock T-shirt|Rock T-shirt]] from Marceline during a performance.<ref name="Obsidian">"[[Obsidian]]"</ref> They would spend time explore the Candy Kingdom's elaborate rock candy mining complex, where Bubblegum caught Marceline vandalizing her property, although, Marceline even got her to tag something down there. However, as the Candy Kingdom kept growing the responsibilities of ruling the Candy Kingdom became more and more demanding and Bubblegum started pushing Marceline away.<ref>"[[Varmints]]"</ref> This came to a head when Bonnibel was called to [[Glass Kingdom]] in order to help defend it from the dragon [[Larvo|Molto Larvo]], as she put her attention towards saving the people over her troublemaking girlfriend. After Marceline put forth her true feelings in a [[Woke Up|scathing song]], sealing the dragon in the process, the pair separated, hurting Bubblegum in her first genuine relationships and would not find common ground together for several hundred years.<ref name="Obsidian" />

[[File:PB with baby FP.png|thumb|left|Bubblegum holding an infant Flame Princess]]

In "[[Earth & Water]]", a flashback reveals that 15 years prior when [[Flame Princess]] was born, a messenger of the [[Fire Kingdom]] gives [[Flame King]] word that his offspring will be more powerful than he could ever dream to be. The Flame King tells the messenger to leave the baby in the woods to perish. The messenger could not bear to let the baby perish, so he left her with a [[Crystal Lumberjack]], whose house Flame Princess promptly burns. The lumberjack screams in shock, and Flame Princess runs into the forest, burning trees. Princess Bubblegum sees this, and, wearing a protective suit, returns Flame Princess to the Fire Kingdom. She tells Flame King that he should not let her wander in the woods because she is too dangerous. Princess Bubblegum tells Flame King to find a way to contain Flame Princess's power, and he proceeds to do so by locking Flame Princess up. The scene changes to Flame Princess in her lantern and the flashback ends.

===''Adventure Time''===
It is implied that Finn has saved Princess Bubblegum more than a few times, though she winds up saving him in the episodes "[[Dungeon (episode)|Dungeon]]" and "[[Lady & Peebles]]". As the series continues she learns to defend herself with science. It also seems that she has had previous run-ins with Marceline the Vampire Queen (who is one of only two known characters who call her by her real name Bonnibel or just Bonnie, the other being [[Flame Princess]]), but both of them are now close friends. In the past, she created [[Earl of Lemongrab|Lemongrab]] (her first experiment gone wrong), then sent him away to live a sheltered life inside his own castle. Princess Bubblegum also performs other scientific experiments, which vary from highly successful to catastrophic.

In the second season's two-part finale, "[[Mortal Folly]]" and "[[Mortal Recoil]]", she sends Finn and [[Jake]] on a quest to stop [[The Lich (character)|the Lich]] from killing, possessing and taking over everyone's souls in the [[Land of Ooo]]. She gives Finn [[the Gauntlet of the Hero Billy]], as it is the only known weapon that can harm the Lich, and a sweater she made herself. The [[Ice King]] captures Princess Bubblegum and chases after Finn and Jake to get their blessing to marry her, but he accidentally drops the princess into the [[The Lich's lair|Lich's well of Power]]. She is soon melted into a pile of pink-brown candy goo and is rushed to the hospital.

It is soon revealed that the spirit of the Lich has possessed the princess and eventually warps her into a giant monster that nearly tears apart the Candy Kingdom. Finn enlists the power of Ice King to immobilize her with his freezing ice powers. Unfortunately, the frozen princess topples over and shatters into bubblegum pieces. The doctors reassembled her, but lacking all the necessary pieces her apparent age decreased to 13 (the same age as Finn at the time).

As a 13-year-old, Princess Bubblegum is technically younger than the [[Earl of Lemongrab]] and he claims his right to the throne until she turns 18 again. After failed attempts of pranking the Earl until he leaves, Princess Bubblegum is forced to restore herself to her 18-year-old form with the contribution of biomass (candy) from the Candy People and a hug (and kiss) from Finn. After reverting to her proper age and size in "[[Too Young]]", she acts as if the events that happened earlier that same day (while she was 13) actually happened five years ago. Oddly, in "[[The Vault]]", it is revealed that Princess Bubblegum, during the life of Finn's previous incarnation [[Shoko]], had stated that she was 19 and not 18, and is now apparently not being totally honest about her age.

In "[[Burning Low]]", Princess Bubblegum reveals that [[Flame Princess]] is physically unstable, and she prevents [[Flame Powers|Flame Princess's Elemental Matrix]] from causing the end of the world: she guides Jake to block the hole resulting from the kiss between Finn and Flame Princess, thus cutting off Flame Princess's oxygen supply and stopping the reaction (and nearly suffocating her along with Finn, who had jumped down after her). She also tells Jake that Flame Princess is unaware that Princess Bubblegum is the one who locked her away as a baby.

During the events of "[[Lady & Peebles]]", Princess Bubblegum and [[Lady Rainicorn]] track the missing Finn and Jake into an uncharted ice cave, believing that Ice King has captured them. After surviving dangerous encounters within the dungeon, it is revealed that [[Ricardio]] set up the situation to lure Bubblegum into the cave and force her to marry him. After having already poisoned Finn and Jake with [[Zanoits]], Ricardio defeats Lady Rainicorn by tying her into a knot. Princess Bubblegum then challenges him to a fistfight, winning by ripping his newly attached limbs away at their exposed sinews. She then drags Finn, Jake, and Ice King back to the Candy Kingdom on Lady's back, creating a new heart for Ice King out of "Ricardio's sinews, toffee, and maracas." She is also the first person to learn of Lady Rainicorn's pregnancy (apart from Lady Rainicorn herself).

Princess Bubblegum patches up her rocky relationship with Lemongrab in "[[You Made Me]]" by making him a [[Lemongrab 2]], so he will have a friend who truly understands him. At the end of the episode, the princess bids them a fond farewell and they both invite her to visit anytime, indicating that the three of them are on good terms. In "[[All Your Fault]]", however, she sends Finn and Jake on a mission because the Lemongrab clones have run out of food. Finn and Jake, upon arriving, find out that the Lemongrabs have been using food to create candy people because Princess Bubblegum accidentally left the recipe for making candy people there. Luckily, after [[Lemonjon]] turned himself into food after almost destroying the Candy Kingdom, Princess Bubblegum erases the [[Candy life]] formula from their minds.

In the Season 4 finale, she is the first person to realize that [[Billy]] is possessed by The Lich, and tries to warn Finn and Jake, but it is too late.

In "[[The Suitor]]", [[Peppermint Butler]] tried to find her a suitor, settling on [[Braco]]. Despite all of Braco's attempts to win her heart, she has no feelings for him and she claims that Braco will never be happy with her. Out of pity and kindness, she created a robotic clone of herself to be Braco's partner. PB later admitted that she loved Braco in the same way she loves all Candy People, but she will not be forced into a relationship. Throughout the rest of season five, she is seen focusing on all of her science projects and isolating herself in her lab.

In "[[The Vault]]" Finn calls Bubblegum over to the [[Tree House]] where he proceeds to knock over his oven and tear up a bunch of floorboards which eventually reveals a hollowed out hole where [[Shoko]] is buried. Shoko's ghost rises from the hole and hands Finn Bubblegum's long lost [[Princess Bubblegum's amulet|amulet]] before disappearing, showing her skeleton remains. This reveals that the Ghost Lady was only "haunting" Finn in hopes he would soon return Princess Bubblegum's amulet. Finn hands Princess Bubblegum the amulet where she exclaims in shock. She looks past Finn and sees Shoko's skeleton, realizing who the skeleton belongs to. Finn cuts her off from saying anything by stating that he is Shoko and states that Princess Bubblegum is not 19 but rather a "bazillion years old." Princess Bubblegum laughs nervously.

In "[[Hot Diggity Doom]]", the Candy Kingdom had its very first election. The election was between Princess Bubblegum and the [[King of Ooo]]. PB did not campaign, as she thought the Candy People knew she loved them and that they were smart enough to understand the King was a bad person (which he is). Unfortunately, the King convinced everyone to vote for him, causing her to lose the election. PB, unable to confront the candy people after seeing their innocent faces, turned in her crown and left (along with [[Peppermint Butler]]) to an [[Gumbald's Cabin|old, dirty cabin]] built by her [[Uncle Gumbald]], which they worked hard to fix and make it into a nice place to live until she got back in business as the princess of the Candy Kingdom.

In "[[Varmints]]", while chasing "varmints" that were messing with her bio-engineered pumpkins, she and Marceline come across the old Candy Kingdom crystal mines, where Princess Bubblegum had caught Marceline graffiti the walls back before they stopped being friends. Marceline had convinced her to leave her own mark on the wall, which reads "Marceline made me write this." It is also revealed that the two would tell jokes and stories for hours down there before Princess Bubblegum got too busy with Princess business.

In the final episode of [[Adventure Time Mini-Series: "Stakes"|''Adventure Time Mini-Series: "Stakes"'']], "[[The Dark Cloud]]", [[Crunchy]] (who had been mistreated by the King of Ooo) pushed the King of Ooo into the fireplace causing him to melt. Crunchy then took charge and ordered the candy citizens to help PB (along with Marceline, Finn, and Jake) destroy [[Vampire King|The Dark Cloud]]. After that, Bubblegum usurped Crunchy and got her throne back so she could put Peppermint Butler back  after he had been smashed into pieces during the explosion at the cabin. Soon Princess Bubblegum was back as the princess of the Candy Kingdom.

In "[[The Thin Yellow Line]]", it is revealed by the Banana Guards that the first Candy People turned on PB and she turned them into monsters. It is also rumored that [[Neddy]] was imprisoned under the Palace Tree, not put there for his own safety (although this is likely just an urban legend as Neddy was not chained up or forced to stay) and they said she destroyed all the rattleballs which gave the impression that she did it for no good reason (although Colonel Candy Corn seems to be unaware of this fact in Nemesis).

[[File:Screen Shot 2018-05-24 at 4.43.33 PM.png|thumb|Princess Bubblegum starts 
the Great Gum War]]
In "[[Gumbaldia]]", Princess Bubblegum planned for war against her Uncle Gumbald's new city-state [[Gumbaldia (location)|Gumbaldia]]. Finn and Jake confronted Gumbald, hoping to call off the war. Finn at one point got Gumbald to like him and supposedly called off all hostilities between the Candy Kingdom and Gumbaldia, while splashing Finn and Jake with a "victory juice." Finn and Jake went back the Bonnie with a signed peace treaty. Princess Bubblegum was initially excited and was about to hug Finn, but could not look past his odd smell. Peppermint Butler then walked over to Finn and Jake, wiping them off with a towel, and then became transformed into a dumber, naked, baby-like peppermint. Princess Bubblegum then realized that the victory juice was Gumbald's dumdum juice, and he had attempted to have her subjected to it. Furious, Princess Bubblegum formally declared war on Gumbaldia.

In "[[Obsidian]]", some years after the series finale, she and Marceline (now her girlfriend) returned to Glass Kingdom to once again stop Molto Larvo, though not without hesitation, as both recalled the unfortunate events which unfolded during their previous visit. Together, they managed to stop the dragon's rampage and affirmed their intentions to spend eternity together.

In "[[Together Again]]", Princess Bubblegum does not appear, but a statue of her sits in what was once her former castle. Peppermint Butler is shown wearing her crown; apparently having taken over her job as ruler. Her location and well-being during this time is left a mystery.

==Characteristics==
Princess Bubblegum is a [[Gum People|sentient, humanoid-construct of pink gum]]<ref>In "[[Bonnie and Neddy]]", it is revealed that she came from a [[Mother Gum|sentient pink goo]] and was born as a mere blob of pink bubblegum. She appears to have been relatively mature even in her infancy, and how she evolved into her current form is still unknown.</ref> and has been revealed to be the current incarnation of the Candy Elemental (the Elementals are the embodiments of the four main elements that make up the world: ice, fire, candy, and slime. They have existed since the beginning of life, living, dying and reincarnating for eons and millennia).<ref>As explained by [[Patience St. Pim]] in "[[Elemental]]"</ref> Although Princess Bubblegum appeared to be in her late teens, she is in fact much older than she looks.<ref>In the 2013 video game ''[[Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!]]'', Princess Bubblegum states that she is 827 years old.<br>In "[[Princess Cookie]]", she is seen in a flashback visiting an orphanage for candy children and while she seemed to be the same age as she is now, Baby Snaps (one of the orphans) had physically aged since then.<br>In "[[The Vault]]", Finn grasps that Princess Bubblegum is "like a bajillion years old" after experiencing a flashback to a past life in the early days of the Candy Kingdom, where Princess Bubblegum is the same age she is now.<br>In "[[Burning Low]]", when [[Flame Princess]] appeared to be very young, possibly 5 years old, Princess Bubblegum is standing next to her lamp but still has the same appearance of being 18.</ref>

==='''Personality'''===
While Princess Bubblegum is typically kind, good-hearted and well-mannered, she can be very temperamental and has shown a malicious aspect of her personality whenever she is crossed. She was willing to break into and search the [[King of Ooo]]'s blimp for evidence to support her suspicions against him, believing him to be a fraud, and went as far as to arrest him and several others in an effort to silence him; however she released them within an hour after seeing the love between [[Tree Trunks]] and [[Mr. Pig]].<ref>"[[Apple Wedding]]"</ref> She also displays a non-hesitant willingness to torture [[Ice King]] after he unintentionally infects the Candy Kingdom with a [[Freezer Burn Flu]] and refuses to assist her in curing them by screaming voluntarily. However, in this case, she does understand what she was attempting to do was wrong, and cries in stress and guilt when Finn exposes this.<ref>"[[What Have You Done?]]"</ref>

[[File:Tumblr mehwoo6E1F1rfqcy5o4 250.gif|thumb|195px]]
Even with her kind disposition, her moral code is not as strict as Finn's and there are also hints of a darker aspect of her personality. For example, she was shown randomly cutting the limbs off of tiny round creatures with scissors and reattaching them in different places when Finn sneaks in, although the creatures show no pain and seem perfectly happy to be reconfigured.<ref>"[[The Lich (episode)|The Lich]]"</ref> Princess Bubblegum was also willing to resort to sabotage and forced sacrifice in order to survive.<ref>"[[James (episode)|James]]"</ref> Her humor is also morbid and inappropriate at times, such as when Finn picks up a paralysis poison and she says, "That's paralyzing potion, Finn! Don't touch it, or it'll paralyze you forever!" and then giggles.<ref>"[[The Other Tarts]]"</ref> There were also skeletons cuffed to the walls in a hidden chamber of her castle.<ref>"[[Ricardio the Heart Guy]]"</ref>

Bubblegum also adores the people of her kingdom and puts their safety above all else. In her dedication, she sometimes drives herself to exhaustion with her tasks. She is also a rational thinker with skepticism towards magic, labeling it as "scientific principles presented like mystical hoodoo." She also claims that "all magic is science," and [[Wizards]] just don't know what they're doing so they call it magic.<ref>"[[Wizards Only, Fools]]"</ref> She seems to regularly organizes and attends events and showpieces such as scientific conferences, parties, and talent shows. 

Noteworthy is one of Bubblegum’s coping mechanisms under extreme stress (like the Lich’s return) which seems to be stress-eating.

When she regressed to being 13-years-old, she exhibits a playful attitude and a willingness to perform pranks with Finn. Just before Princess Bubblegum is returned to her normal age she mentions that she enjoyed temporarily being 13 because she was free from the responsibilities that came with being ruler of the Candy Kingdom and that she could act like a kid again. In Princess Bubblegum's own words, being thirteen was "bloobalooby," while being 18 was "plop-dumps and waggle-sags."

After the events surrounding her age regression, Bubblegum began to feel very vulnerable, and, as she considers the possibility of living forever not yet scientifically possible, she makes a clone-Sphinx of herself named Goliad.<ref>"[[Goliad (episode)]]"</ref> She also begins exhibiting strong authoritarian behavior, as she starts spying on all her subjects, and begins taking more assertive actions from then onwards, with Tree Trunks even going to far as to label her "fascist."<ref>[[High Strangeness]]</ref> Furthermore, her worry about the fate of the Candy Kingdom in the event of her demise has led her to perform questionable acts and become more of a pragmatic character; evident in her consistent surveillance on anything that could be a threat (e.g. Flame Princess). Despite the moral ambiguity of her actions, they are motivated by her desire to protect, if taken to potentially paranoid levels. This could be best seen when Flame Princess called her a 'bad person' for her actions and Princess Bubblegum was visibly hurt, showing that she hadn't intended to be malicious. Nevertheless, even if her morality often becomes misguided and her methods bordering on dictatorship, Bubblegum truly desires only to protect her people and friends, born from a passionate heart of a girl that needed to learn herself how to be an adult. 

The ruler of the Candy Kingdom has to organize a thousand things at once, keeping a reliant and stable head at all times, lock down her own problems and struggles, whilst planning for the future protection of her people. Needless to say, none of this should be handled alone regardless of how mature or mentally strong the individual is. In addition to this, Bubblegum as a high-intellectual views things from a scientific or theoretical standpoint and structure things step by step. However, this often acts as a double-edged sword and complicates with the “perfection” role she has to fill already. If some unforeseen factor or miscalculation interrupts with her tightly detailed plans, she can be taken back for a moment and her insecurity reaches highest capacity. Certain examples are when she made an error at her attempt in opening the musical door in [[What Was Missing]], failing in containing the [[Larvo]] threat twice or holding Varmints at bay. In [[Obsidian]], the people she tried to help doubted her abilities and it was shown that even she falls subject to pressure from others. Juggling all of this simultaneously eventually manages to tear PB’s resilience. Famous example is the emotional breaking point Bubblegum reached in [[Varmints]], where having lost the faith of her people, exiling from her home and losing her crown in an election boil up and overheat internally. PB finally starts to shed tears of sheer struggle, exhaustion and realisation that she cannot manage her dilemma and be OK. Fortunately, with the newly rekindled love and support from Marceline, Bubblegum can stop managing every disaster by herself and takes a break from the responsibility she have had since building the first Candy People.  

==='''Physical Appearance'''===
{{Main|Princess Bubblegum/Outfits}}

Princess Bubblegum is tall and slender with light pink skin and magenta-pink hair, which is made up of actual bubblegum. Her primary outfit is a floor-length, puffy-sleeved, dark-pink gown with a purple scoop-neck collar and sash around her waist. Whenever she does any science experiments, she wears a [[Wikipedia:White coat|lab coat]], sometimes with her hair tied back in either a bun or a ponytail. However, she still changes her outfits and hairstyle regularly from episode to episode:

{{Scroll|content = 
* In "[[Slumber Party Panic]]", she wears a white lab coat and goggles over her regular dress.
* In "[[Trouble in Lumpy Space]]", she wears a white, purple sleeved gown with pink and purple ruffles and purple flats for the [[Mallow Tea Ceremony]].
* In "[[The Duke]]", her skin turns green and she loses most of her hair. She wears a black suit filled with a certain type of candy milk, and later wears a purple striped tank top and white shorts.
* In "[[What Have You Done?]]", she wears a fumigation mask (which she later removes) along with her regular dress and later she puts on some sort of pink gloves.

She remains this way until "[[Skyhooks II]]".}}

==='''Powers and Abilities'''===
<br />[[File:Tumblr mf83ztcnwY1qbz5qno6 500.gif|thumb]]
*Princess Bubblegum has a high-level of intellect, apparent in her scientific aptitude and inventing skills. Notable examples of her intelligence are when she built her own lab,<ref>"[[Broke His Crown]]</ref> fashioned a formula to revive/reanimate dead Candy People, and when she created the [[Candy People|candy people]], [[Lemongrab]], [[Goliad (character)|Goliad]], [[Stormo]], and [[Lemongrab 2]].<ref>She remarks to Ricardio in "[[Lady & Peebles]]" that she knows about building a body from biomass.</ref>
*Princess Bubblegum is bilingual, speaking German<ref>Bubblegum has spoken German in "[[Frost & Fire]]", "[[What Have You Done?]]", "[[Go With Me]]", "[[The Vault]]", "[[James (episode)|James]]", and "[[Checkmate]]"</ref> and English. As she can apparently understand [[Lady Rainicorn]], who speaks in Korean, it is implied she knows the Korean language.
[[File:Adventure Time Have You Seen The Muffin Mess.gif|thumb|180px|Bonnie remaking her muffined arm.]]
*She has some proficiency in hand-to-hand combat.<ref>In "[[Lady & Peebles]]", she shows her capabilities in fighting when she fought in hand-to-hand combat with Ricardo and defeated him. Furthermore, she was able to defeat [[Abracadaniel]] by outsmarting him in "[[Wizards Only, Fools]]". She also demonstrated her strength when she carried an injured Lady Rainicorn, as well as healing and rescuing Finn, Jake, and the Ice King when she brought them to the Candy Kingdom. It was shown again in "[[James (episode)|James]]", when she carried Finn and Jake far away.</ref>
*She is an ambidextrous writer.<ref>Bubblegum wrote with her left hand in "[[Slumber Party Panic]]", "[[Goliad (episode)|Goliad]]", and "What Was Missing," and with her right hand in "[[Five Short Graybles]]", "[[Burning Low]]", "[[The Lich (episode)|The Lich]]", and "[[Hot Diggity Doom]]</ref>
*Princess Bubblegum has some caliber of longevity.<ref>She claims that she won't live forever in [[Goliad (episode)|Goliad]]<br>"Everything comes and goes, even me. I'm not going to live forever - long, yeah, but definitely nothing compared to your life expectancy." — Bubblegum talking to Marceline in [[Issue 23|Adventure Time Comics #23 "Forever (Not) Alone"]].</ref>
*Her biological age can be fluctuated by adding or removing candy biomass.<ref>As seen in the episodes "[[Mortal Recoil]]" and "[[Too Young]]".</ref>
[[File:Tumblr okgwpdkNQP1v4j5emo1 500.gif|thumb|Bubblegum's most conventional use of her powers.]]
*After her right hand and forearm were turned into muffins by her nanobots, Bubblegum was able to stretch her stumped arm out to how it was originally; this is most likely how she increases and decreases the length of her hair.<ref>"[[Have You Seen the Muffin Mess]]"</ref>
*Princess Bubblegum was observed to glow when she was calming her [[Neddy|brother]] down with a series of clicking noises.<ref>"[[Bonnie and Neddy]]"</ref><ref name="bonnibel bubblegum" />
[[File:Tumblr okh4ndXhPd1ud1w70o2 500.gif|thumb|Bubblegum shooting scotch mints at [[Patience St. Pim]].]]
*Princess Bubblegum can project in various forms quantities of candy (e.g. jellybeans, scotch mints, and soda pop) through her hands. She normally shoots torrents of jelly beans at high-speed from the palms of her hand, and this seemed enough to demolish some of the structures in her kingdom. Based on her knowledge of chemistry, she was able to create an explosion using soda pop and scotch mints, and the result was capable of destroying the huge ice construct made by [[Patience St. Pim|Patience]].
**In "[[Obsidian]]", it is revealed that Princess Bubblegum can also shoot Root Beer through her hands that, at copious amounts, can encase any target or opponent in Root Beer that quickly crystallizes on contact. This leaves the target or opponent trapped in crystallized Root Beer. <ref>'''[[Obsidian]]'''</ref>

[[File:PB’s Root Beer.gif|thumb|Bubblegum shooting Root Beer in “[[Obsidian]]”]]
<br />

*She was able to communicate with [[Chatsberry]] through her dreams.<ref>[[Jelly Beans Have Power]]</ref>

[[File:S8E22 Screenshot 22.png|thumb|Bonnie in her pure elemental form.]]
*After being overrun by her elemental powers, Princess Bubblegum became connected to all candy throughout all the galaxies. She could also transform other people and objects into candy, affecting a fellow [[Flame Princess|Elemental]] and even further altering the already candy-like [[Candy People|denizens of her kingdom]]; Finn described this as the "candy curse." Those affected were uncharacteristically joyful and sweet in terms of personality.<ref>As seen in "[[Skyhooks]]" and "[[Skyhooks II]]"</ref>
*Her [[Princess Bubblegum's crown|crown]] and matching earrings are capable of protecting the wearer's mind from [[The Lich (character)|the Lich]]'s influence.<ref>"[[Mortal Folly]]"</ref> The gem of power is also used for [[The Enchiridion (book)|the Enchiridion]].

==='''Weaknesses'''===
*Princess Bubblegum's own hubris sometimes acted as her Achilles heel. Her excessive pride or self-confidence occasionally blinded her to the possible consequences of her actions.
*As with the other Elementals, Lumps acted as a stabilizer to Bubblegum's Elemental magic and could evidently negate its effects.<ref>It is revealed in the episode "[[Skyhooks II]]" that Lumps act as an "anti-elemental" – a force that maintains the order of reality and restores balance when the elements grow too much.</ref>

==Notes ==
<tabber>
|-|Trivia=
*On the Cartoon Network official website in 2010, Jake referred to her as "a horrible mutant mix of bubblegum and human DNA." When he brought up Finn's crush on her, Finn replied, "It's just 'cause of the radiation."
*Princess Bubblegum is an avid trumpet player, as seen in "Bad Timing."
*Her original name was Bettie, but [[Pendleton Ward]] changed it to Bonnibel because Bettie is [[Bettie Ward|his mother]]'s name.
*Princess Bubblegum loves pink, as stated in "[[The Real You]]".
*In "[[To Cut a Woman's Hair]]", she reveals that she loves spaghetti. In the same episode she was upset when her spaghetti got knocked on the ground. She has since been seen eating it in multiple episodes.
*As seen in "[[Mortal Folly]]", "The Creeps", "[[Sky Witch]]", and "[[Reign of Gunters]]", Princess Bubblegum wears earrings but does not appear to have ears. However, in "All the Little People", little Princess Bubblegum is shown with ears.
*Princess Bubblegum's gender-swapped character is [[Prince Gumball]].
*[[Marceline]] was at one point the only person known to call her by her first name, Bonnibel, or Bonnie for short, until she revealed her real name to [[Flame Princess]] in "[[The Cooler]]" in an attempt to ease tensions with the ruler of the [[Fire Kingdom]]. However, in "Bonnie and Neddy", Finn calls her by her first name.
*Princess Bubblegum has had more outfits than any other character in the show.
*Princess Bubblegum seems to be the most active in dealing with royal affairs, as she is seen managing the potluck for princesses in "[[Princess Potluck]]".
*In the [[animated short]], the gem in her crown is magenta, but in the series it is turquoise.
*In "[[Video Makers]]" and "[[Mortal Folly]]", she consumes other Candy People. According to [[Adam Muto]], this is to replace lost candy biomass.
*In the episode "[[Susan Strong (episode)|Susan Strong]]", there is a portrait of Princess Bubblegum and an old woman in the top left corner of her room.
*She makes a cameo in "[[Hug Wolf]]" in the background of the [[Candy Kingdom]] chasing after a black or dark gray cat. She was wearing the same clothes as in "[[The Real You]]".
*In the episode "[[Puhoy]]", Finn named his and [[Roselinen]]'s daughter after her ([[Jay & Bonnie|Bonnie]]).
*In the German dub of ''Adventure Time'', Princess Bubblegum speaks Turkish.
*Princess Bubblegum has a very fast bird called [[Morrow]], which she often uses as a form of transportation, as seen in "[[Death in Bloom]]", "[[Burning Low]]", and "[[The Suitor]]".
*Her NPC in the game, ''[[FusionFall]]'', appears to be more "human-like."
*In "[[Sky Witch]]", Princess Bubblegum quotes the title of Welsh poet [[Wikipedia:Dylan Thomas|Dylan Thomas]]'s poem "[[Wikipedia:Do not go gentle into that good night|Do not go gentle into that good night]]".
*In "[[Bonnie and Neddy]]", when Princess Bubblegum dropped from the [[Mother Gum]], she waves and speaks to them in click noises indicating that they may have some sort of unique communication method.
*Princess Bubblegum has a go-kart in the Cartoon Network app "Formula C Cartoon."
*Princess Bubblegum states in "[[Earth & Water]]" that she likes the taste of envelopes. However, this may have just been to distract the guards.
*In the video game ''[[Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!]]'', Princess Bubblegum said she was 827 years old.
**In the game, which was co-written by [[Pendleton Ward]], Princess Bubblegum explains that she was part of the sentient pink goo that was formed about one thousand years ago, and achieved sentience upon being spat out, with her current form being 827 years old. It is unclear how much of this story is canon to the cartoon show. The remainder of the pink goo (Princess Bubblegum's "parents") is locked in the lowest level of the [[Candy Kingdom]]'s dungeon until it is destroyed as a final boss and floats out in various sentient bubble forms during the closing credits.
**This is supported by the fact that in the ''[[Art of Ooo]]'' book, it is stated that Marceline is older than Princess Bubblegum. However, it is unknown if this is canon.<ref>http://i1.cdnds.net/14/42/comics-adventure-time-the-art-of-ooo.png</ref>
**The flashback in [[Bonnibel Bubblegum (episode)|Bonnibel Bubblegum]] that detailed Bubblegum's early childhood also took place "like 800 years ago."
*According to Cartoon Network Latin America, PB has the wish to win the Nobel Chemistry Prize and she gets mad when someone does not follow her orders.
*When asked why she looks different from Neddy, she says they were built differently and they didn't need to understand it but to accept it.
*Her [[Princess Bubblegum's crown|crown]] from when she was younger is a tiny amount smaller than her present one whereas the crown on Morrow is a much larger version altogether.
*There is a running subplot that her rule can seem uncomfortably tyrannical, but she feels she is doing what she must to shepherd and protect the kingdom. When she was briefly ousted as princess, the kingdom was nearly destroyed, and only restored to stability when she basically seized power as an anti-democratic monarch again.
**In "[[High Strangeness]]", it is revealed that there is a resistance movement called the [[Veritas Brigade]] who oppose and criticize Princess Bubblegum's rule as being fascist.
*She has created a majority of her family, with only [[Mother Gum]] and [[Neddy]] being her only direct relatives.
**Also, a majority of her created family have tried to overthrow her throughout the series.
*Her fate as of "[[Come Along With Me]]" is left ambiguous. She may or may not have survived 1000 years into the future.
*In "[[Obsidian]]," it is revealed that Princess Bubblegum is boneless.
*According to [[Jeremy Shada]], she was originally going to be voiced by [[Jackie Buscarino]], the voice of [[Susan Strong (character)|Susan Strong]]<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TBRgddRGUs&ab_channel=NewYorkComicCon| The panel] where this is said.</ref>.
