Characters Humans Dudley Squat (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) – the self-proclaimed leader of the nerds, despite his short stature. He apparently has a Napoleon complex, as he is often demanding things be done a certain way – HIS way, but just not to be too bossy though. Dudley is also willing to undo his wrongdoings whenever his frequent selfish desires put Irwin, Becky, and Stan in trouble. He is Jewish Canadian. Irwin Chang-Stein (voiced by Vincent Tong) – a nerd who is often cowardly and accident-prone, as he has a phobia of everything, except some things, including Becky, who he has a crush on. He is of mixed Chinese Canadian and Jewish Canadian descent. Rebecca "Becky" Rogers (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) – a tall, excitable Scottish Canadian nerd, who is the only female in the group. She has a particular fondness for zoology and entomology, as she enjoys keeping journals about various creatures inhabiting the island. She is the love interest of both Irwin and Stan. Stanley "Stan" Carver (voiced by Ty Olsson) – a fun-loving and goofy Canadian-American jock, who serves the top lineman on the Beaverton Middle School Bulldogs football team. He is nowhere near as smart as his nerdy friends are, yet he is very friendly and sweet towards everyone he meets. Stan also has an obvious crush on Becky, and she appears to reciprocate his feelings. The only reason he's with Dudley, Irwin and Becky is because he "thinks he got on the wrong bus". Monsters Zarg (voiced by Brian Dobson) – king of the monsters, and Lyle's uncle. His position as Supreme Leader is threatened by the nerds' arrival. Skur (voiced by Ian James Corlett) – Zarg's servant, a winged lizard-like monster who is fed up being second banana, so is bent on dethroning Zarg and becoming king of Monster Island.
