Panda (パンダ?) is a character in the Tekken fighting game series. She is, as her name implies, a giant Panda and the loyal pet, best friend, and bodyguard of Ling Xiaoyu. She has the same fighting style as Kuma, Heihachi Mishima's pet grizzly bear, of which she is a palette swap of in all of her appearances, with the exception of Tekken Card Challenge, Tekken Bowl, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Tekken 7 and Tekken (Mobile), where she finally gets her own slot. Panda is also Kuma's love interest. In Tekken Bowl and Tekken Mobile, marks Panda playable in a game where a Kuma is not. Like Xiaoyu, Panda made her debut in Tekken 3.
