Personality[]
Jolly and generous, Great Giving Bear is something of an icon to the denizens of Care-a-Lot. Known as the one who gives out gifts to all who care on Great Giving Day, this fluffy philanthropist lives to make all bears feel special at least one day out of the year. Their belly badge gives him the ability to teleport, which is perhaps the most useful power one in their position could have.
They are essentially the bear equivalent to Santa Claus and represents the holiday known as "Great Giving Day", akin to Christmas Wishes Bear.
