Flamingos, like llamas, are a recurring motif in The Sims series. In the first three games, plastic lawn flamingos appear as cheap outdoor decorations. By casting the Enchant spell on a pink flamingo, the FlaminGoGo Dancer NPC can be summoned[TS:MM]. Neon flamingos appear in The Sims, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 Store. In The Sims, they appear as neon flamingo wall lamps that were originally used to promote the defunct SimCity Flamingos hockey team. In The Sims 2, the neon flamingo appears as a decorative wall hanging. In The Sims 3 and The Sims 4, the flamingo again appears as a lawn decoration, coming in a variety of colors. Additionally, the Neon Flamingo lamp can be downloaded for free from The Sims 3 Store in the "The Sims Strike Back" set.

Sims often kick over a flamingo, and it will sometimes get stolen.
