The Traflorkians are a species of small green aliens. They are often seen performing various jobs throughout the universe, and Rick Sanchez has befriended a lot of them.
History[]
According to the Galactic Federation, Traflorkians came to Earth thousands of glaagnars ago and planted bones and fossils all over the planet as a goof, meaning that dinosaurs never existed.
They were involved in a series of conflicts with the Pizarians called the Marinara Wars, where the Traflorkians' God Emperor Pahpahj’han consumed millions of Pizarians.[1]
Rick Sanchez invited a great number of Traflorkians to his house party.
Culture[]
Traflorkians is a species known to goof around, particularly after they planted bones and fossils on a primitive Earth as a joke to lead humans into beliveing dinosaurs used to roam the planet[2].
Glip-Glop[]
