Classification: Pig
Homeland: Planet Kinniku
First Appearance: Manga Chapter 3, Anime Episode 1A
King Ton is basically the accidental swap that almost ruined everything for Kinnikuman. When Suguru was just a baby, his mother Mayumi somehow mixed him up with a pig on their spaceship and threw the kid overboard to Earth instead—apparently she couldn't tell the difference, and nobody else at the Hercules Factory could either.
The pig, named Ikue, ended up getting raised as the legitimate prince of Kinniku Planet. It became known as King Ton and actually managed to take the throne. The impostor pig was good enough to defeat Suguru in a three-round match where they switched up fighting styles each time around. But the whole scam fell apart when Suguru finally reclaimed his rightful position.
King Ton didn't exactly get a dignified exit. Its original owner, a tonkatsu chef, tracked it down and chased it away after the match. That's the last anyone ever saw of it.
