Meet Pok the Duck — The Angry Protector

Meet Pok the Duck — The Angry Protector

The Ducks of GOOOS aren’t ordinary ducks. They’re rare beings from another world born from joy itself — each one powered by human smiles.

As long as people laugh, play, and find moments of lightness, the ducks thrive. But when smiles fade, the ducks weaken. And when the world grew too heavy with Stress, Anxiety, and Overwhelm… they began to vanish altogether.

That’s the danger the flock has faced for centuries. It’s why Gwok the Duck reached out across the universe to Sam & Jake to found Studio GOOOS— They are not just plush ducks, they are agents of joy. Pok is one such agent.


Why Pok’s Different: Anger With a Purpose

But not every battle can be fought with calm alone.

Pok is different from the rest. A grey duck with a spiked mohawk (yes, really) and a cute face filled with attitude, he saw his flock dwindle. He felt the sting of helplessness and loss. And when the world told him to “just cheer up” or “look on the bright side,” it only made the pain worse. 

That’s the trap of toxic positivity: pretending everything’s fine when it isn’t. It leaves the most vulnerable even more unprotected.

So Pok chose a different path. He refused to bury his struggle. Instead, he channeled it into strength.

Every scowl on his face is a vow: to protect what matters. His anger isn’t weakness—it’s armor. His grumpiness isn’t failure—it’s focus. He turned frustration into fuel and pain into purpose.


What Pok Stands For

Pok is here for the days when you don’t feel like smiling. When the world’s noise is too much. When you need someone to stand beside you and say, “It’s okay to feel this way. Let’s use it.”

He shows us that every emotion has value. That even struggle can become a source of power. That we don’t need to erase our feelings to fight back—we can use them to guard the things that matter most.

Pok’s mission is simple: to help people choose to rise.
 Where Gwok offers comfort, Pok holds the line. Together, they prove that joy is worth defending—and every feeling, even the heavy ones, can be used for good in the fight against the downward spiral!


Join Pok on the Front Lines

Pok the Duck is crossing into our world, and he’s ready to help you rise up and defeat downward spirals for good! His first flock will be tiny—just enough for those who step forward early. Once they’re gone, Pok won’t return until the next production run.

In 2026, Studio GOOOS is launching a Pok the Duck Anxiety Plush Toy to a select group.
