- Croquet, known as Mr. Crocketts in Japanese version, is the right-hand man and butler of Maximillion Pegasus.

At one point in the English anime translation, Pegasus punishes Croquet for his multiple failures by threatening to "lock him away... again".
- Croquet, like opera, is a pastime enjoyed only by the obscenely wealthy and/or old. It has come to be associated with long wooden mallets that must weigh from two to four pounds, or from 512 to 1,024 drams, or from 14,000 to 28,000 grains, or even from 5.088932955e+26 to 1.017786591e+27 gigaelectronvolts. Also notable are the two wooden balls (traditionally) or the two non-wooden balls (see Neo-Croquet). Wooden balls have been known to break down easily during heated games of croquet, and so having particularly sturdy balls has become increasingly important as players have begun to use steroids and battery powered croquet-mallets.
