“ | The PomPom grows brilliant pink plumes by eating only foods that are red. The pelt may grow to be very long. While dancing and emitting its strident cry, the PomPom is an arresting sight. | ” |
Description
The PomPom is a pink furry humanoid creature with pink pompoms. Its legs, arms, and feet are peach with orange stripes, and on its legs it has pink fur resembling leg warmers. Its "hair" is tied into two pigtails at the sides of its head and it has a tuft of pink sticking out at the top. It looks and behaves much like a human cheerleader.
When this monster is idle, it stays in tempo by marching in place and periodically jumping in cheer.
Song
Audio sample: File:Memory Audio ACE.ogg
The PomPom Monster's contribution to an island's song is a high-spirited cheer that adds to the melody, and differs by island:
- Air Island — Hey Nana, Hey Nana, Hey Nana, Hey Na, Hey, Low!
- Earth Island — Yippie Yay, Yippie Yo, Yippie Yay Yippie Yay Yippie Yo Yo.
- Gold Island — Yippitie Yay, Yippitie Yay, Yippitie Yay; Yippitie Yay, Yippitie Yay, Yippitie Yo / Yo yo yo yo nana, yo yo yo yo yay.

- Tribal Island — Come on, come on let's go! Come on, come on let's go!
- Memory Game –– Low!
- On Tribal Island, The song varies by language
Breeding
The PomPom Monster can be bred using monsters that combine to provide all the elements of Air, Earth and Cold. Possible combinations:
Because Tweedle and Drumpler take much less time to hatch than both Pango and Cybop, the first combination will provide more breeding opportunities in the same time period (on average).
On Shugabush Island, the PomPom must either be purchased with diamonds or teleported from any other island it is found on (not including Gold) once it reaches level 15.
Earning Rate and Maximum Income
Earning rate is in coins per hour and depends on Happiness % (Likes increase Happiness), also each monster has a limit to how much income it can hold at a time. Increasing the monster's level increases the limit.
Feeding Monsters
Each monster needs to be fed four times before it reaches the next level. Increasing the monster's level increases the coins earned per minute, as well as the maximum coins earned. The food per level is the same for all three element monsters and can be found in this article.
Template:Likes While trying to breed other monsters (particularly monsters with a very low chance of breeding), the following Wublins can be used to "dispose of" PomPom eggs immediately instead of putting them into a Nursery and having that Nursery not be available.
Monster Egg | Wublin 1 | Wublin 2 | Wublin 3 | Wublin 4 | Wublin 5 | Wublin 6 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
PomPom | Blipsqueak | Bona-Petite | Dwumrohl | Gheegur | Poewk | Thwok |
4 eggs | 6 eggs | 4 eggs | 4 eggs | 1 egg | 4 eggs |
Note that bred monster eggs can only be "disposed of" into inactive Wublin statues; active Wublins do not accept monster eggs. Also note that inactive Wublin statues to which you have already disposed the number of PomPom eggs that Wublin accepts, will no longer be available as a "recycle bin" for such eggs.
Strategy
Some items to take into consideration when designing your island by strategy are number of beds for the monster, rate of income per bed, max income per bed, and time for max income to be reached. The income below is for level 15:
Number of Beds | 3 |
---|---|
Rate of Income High | 192 |
Rate of Income Low | 96 |
Max Income | 34,560 |
Rate of Income per Bed High | 64 |
Rate of Income per Bed Low | 32 |
Max Income per Bed | 11,520 |
Time to Max Income @ High | 3 hours |
Time to Max Income @ Low | 6 hours |
Name Origin
The name "PomPom" references the colorful pompoms in the monsters' hands.
Rare Version

Rares are special versions of monsters that are only available to buy and breed on weekends. Each weekend a different rare is available to buy or breed. The breeding combination is the same as a regular monster, but the breeding time is longer, the "likes" are different, and the earning rates are higher. They are not yet available in the Windows version of the game.

Halloween
During the Halloween Season in October, all PomPoms (on all the islands) changed their color to a fluorescent lime green and put "eyes" on their signature pompoms as part of the Plant Island Halloween celebration, even though the PomPom itself is not native to that island. Its costume resembled an alien with 4 eyes and antennae on its head.
During the Halloween Season in October 2015, all PomPoms (on all the islands) changed their color to bright red and dressed up as skeletons. They even changed their arm and legs to black and white stripes rather than the orange and light orange stripes they usually wear. Their pompoms were also changed to bright red and looked a bit spiky.
Notes
- The PomPom's liking of red food is probably a reference to the South American bird Scarlet Ibis, which gets its bright red color from the red shrimps that compose its diet. The same is true of flamingoes.
- The PomPom is also shown in the game My PomPom, released on November 12th 2014.
- It is the only triple element monster which can be brought to more than 3 islands (other than the natural islands and Gold Island). Shugabush Island is the fourth.
- The correct spelling of the monster's name is "PomPom", not "Pompom", though it's sometimes hard to tell the difference because of the fonts used by the games. Messages from BBB on social media use the bicapitalized ("CamelCase") form pretty consistently.
- Usually, the PomPom's top row of teeth are hidden, but on Earth Island the PomPom occasionally shows a full smile.
- PomPom was the first ever monster to speak English (unless you count "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" as English").
- The PomPom uses English words rather than its normally obscure vocalizations on Tribal Island ("Come On Let's Go"). In My Singing Monsters: Dawn of Fire, it uses English words on the Continent ("Hey Everybody, Hey Lets Go") and on Cloud Island ("Shake It To The Left --- Shake It To The Right" etc.)
- The "Yippie Yay" as heard from Earth Island appears in some of My Singing Monster's Facebook posts.
- This is the only triple - element natural with the element air that sings (not including the ones in Dawn of Fire). However, the Congle sings on the Tribal Island, coincidentally with the PomPom.
- It is not known for sure whether PomPoms carry pompoms or if the pompoms are their own tufts. In this Facebook link, it shows a PomPom carrying a letter from Hoola, showing PomPom with a pompom as it holds the letter. However, the game My PomPom with the mini-game "the juggling game" shows the PomPom with bare hands.
- The PomPom has 4 look-alikes so far: Rare Pompom, Hoola, Rare Hoola, and Sooza.
- A plushie version of the PomPom is available in Amazon, as seen in this link. More information about the PomPom can be seen on that same link too.
- The nickname choice of Buffy is a reference to the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer film, where the titular character was a cheerleader.
- PomPom is one of the few female natural monsters.
