Flippy isn't a gary-stu. As long as he, and everyone else in the show, have a good rate of dying throughout the show, he's not overlapping any characters.

Splendid is mostly parody, but as long as he has died at least once, he's not gary-stu.

Elemental has unimaginable powers and apparently "doesn't feel it when he is injured" and "doesn't die". Gary-stu.

The other "sues" are copies of canon characters. We don't want twenty-five Flippys, ten Cuddles, and fifty Lumpys.
