The red-haired daughter of Fred and Wilma Flintstone, Pebbles was born near the end of the third season.

She spent most of her time with Bamm-Bamm Rubble, her childhood best friend whom she eventually marries.<ref name="hollyrock" />

Fictional character biographyEdit

According to the February 22, 1963, edition of TV Guide, Pebbles was born at the Bedrock Rockapedic Hospital on February 22, 10,000 BC. That particular year was never actually cited within the show itself; most versions of the show put the Flintstones' era as around 1,000,000 BC.Template:Citation needed

As an infant, Pebbles quickly became lifelong best friends with her next-door neighbor, Bamm-Bamm Rubble.<ref>"Little Bamm Bamm," The Flintstones, season 4</ref>

As a pre-teen, Pebbles was an excellent baseball player, which led to a misadventure involving her father, as seen in the 1978 primetime special The Flintstones: Little Big League.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

By the time she was a teenager, Pebbles began dating Bamm-Bamm and was noted for getting their friends into various misadventures, mostly due to sharing her dad's penchant for schemes that would inevitably backfire (such as causing a strike by Bedrock's city employees when she was elected honorary mayor for a week<ref>"Mayor May Not," The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show, CBS</ref>). Her friends and she attended Bedrock High School; Pebbles had a catchphrase similar to her father's: "Yabba-Dabba-Doozie!"<ref>The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show, 1971-1972, CBS</ref>

As an adult, Pebbles pursued a career in advertising and married Bamm-Bamm.<ref name="yabba" /> After this, the newly married couple moved to Hollyrock, a fictional, prehistoric version of Hollywood, California. They eventually had a son named Chip and a daughter named Roxy, who were fraternal twins.<ref name="hollyrock" />

Character marketingEdit

In 1963, when Hanna-Barbera decided to add a baby to the show, their first choice was a boy named Fred Junior. When Ideal Toy Company heard this, company executives approached Hanna-Barbera with a proposal to change the baby character to a girl for which the toymaker could create a doll, and Hanna-Barbera agreed.Template:Citation needed

Pebbles, in her conventional toddler incarnation, is sometimes seen in the various Post Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles cereal commercials that have been produced over the years. Pebbles also appears on the packages of "Flintstones" children's vitamins and with Bamm-Bamm on the packages of "Flintstones" toddler vitamins, which are manufactured by Bayer Healthcare (formerly Miles Laboratories).
