 * Cathy Smith (Voiced by Andrea Libman) – Cathy appears to be a bubbly, 12–13 year-old girl on Earth, but she is actually a 250-year old[3] (or 700 Rapzodian year-old teenager) alien from the planet Rapzodia. She came to Earth with her grandfather, Mr. Smith, to start the Monster Buster Club (MBC). She is constantly surprised at how different Earth is from Rapzodia. She has many alien abilities, like the ability to stretch, slight telekinesis, and others. She is the most optimistic of the MBC. Her suit color is pink. In her human form, she has blond hair and blue eyes. Her Rapzodian form is shown to be a humanoid, white alien with scattered pink spots, with four tentacles for arms, and four tentacles for legs, as well as tentacles on her head, (like hair), and a long, furry-looking tail[4] Compared to humans, Rhapsodians are extremely long-lived.


 * Mr. Hugo Smith (Voiced by Rick Jones) – Mr. Smith is Cathy's aloof grandfather and came with her to Earth. Like Cathy, he is a Rhapsodian, but rarely displays any supernatural powers and his alien form has the appearance of a mollusk. He'll sometimes aid the MBC from the clubhouse, but often he won't be involved in their missions at all. Mr. Smith loves working in his garden and playing cards with his plants.


 * John (Voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) – John is Chris's little brother. He sometimes takes over for Chris at the clubhouse when Chris is on a mission or busy. He really wants to be in the MBC but he is too young.

Other Characters

 * Wendy Walters (Voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) – Danny's crush who is the snobby, popular valley girl at the school which the MBC attend and often makes fun of them. She also uses Danny to do things for her, which is seen in "Dog Daze" where she asks him to watch her dog Matise. She is known for gossiping and tries anything to get a good scoop. (This is shown in the episode "Bubbleheads" when she follows Cathy to Mark's house because she thinks Cathy's working on another story.)


 * Mr. Fusster – The MBC's science teacher who thinks aliens don't exist. This upsets Cathy who knows that aliens exist and often argues with him. This gets her in trouble (shown in the episode "The Trouble with Troublemaking", when Cathy gets angry and pushes all his books off his desk getting her a detention). Recent events, though, show that he may know more about aliens than he lets on, and may even be one.


 * Principal Rollins (Voiced by Sonja Ball)- The gang's principal who thinks the students are soldiers and often uses terms like "Company halt!" and "About face!". She sometimes gets in the way of the MBC's missions this is shown in the episode "Monster Beaters" when she forces every student to join a school club (leaving the MBC little time to investigate). She has shown in various episodes an affection for Mr. Smith. It is also suggested she used to be a spy, and believes Cathy is one too.
