Life Leading Up to The Sims 2
Johnny is the son of Pollination Tech#9 Smith and Jenny Smith (née Curious). He has a younger sister, Jill Smith. He has two older half-sisters, the twins Lola and Chloe Singles from his father's pollinating days; the girls were born to Johnny's grandfather, Glarn Curious, after an alien abduction, which means that Lola and Chloe are both his aunts and his half-sisters.
He desperately wants to be popular and fit in at his high school. He's going steady with Ophelia Nigmos and is enemies with Tank Grunt because of a feud between their families. He's not friends with Ripp Grunt, but the two are close to being friends.
While he is an alien-Sim hybrid, he appears much more Sim-like than his half-sisters. Aside from having green skin, he essentially looks like a normal Sim. When the Smith family is first played, the house has a birthday cake and a buffet table, because it is Johnny's birthday. Specifically, it is around 10:00 am on his last day as a teen. He will have a want to have a great party. However, the party has not yet started, so there is still time to send him to college, if University is installed. In fact, if the "Throw Party" call is made before 11:45 am, there will be time for him to have a house party or sports party and still go to college. However, he is a B student and will not qualify for any scholarships unless he can gain a body point before aging up. Johnny starts off with 7 body skill points and 2 mechanical skill points.
If he blows out the candles before 6 PM, he will technically grow up a day early. Once Johnny becomes an adult, he will only be best friends with Ophelia Nigmos, and they will no longer be going steady. However, Johnny will continue to dream about her - with pink hearts bursting around her face - even if he falls in love with another Sim.
In one of the storytelling images, Johnny has an unused hairstyle. It's hard to tell, but the texture is different from the one he has in game, which is not unused. As with many pre-made Sims in Strangetown, the "Skintone" part of his Sim DNA is missing.
While the Curious brothers are, biologically speaking, his uncles, Johnny does not recognize them as family members, and does not even know them. While he is technically an alien-Sim hybrid, checking his Sim DNA in SimPE shows that he will always pass on genes for the alien skin tone, green eyes, and blond hair. Even though his father is homozygous for alien eyes and red hair, and his mother is homozygous for light skin, he has no genetics for those traits.
Life Leading Up to The Sims 2 for PSP
In the PSP version, Johnny is living with his family and the Grunt family at Division 47. Apparently, General Buzz Grunt's paranoia toward the Smith family has escalated so much, he has transferred their family, and his family (with the exception of Buck Grunt) to Division 47, much to Johnny's disapproval. Johnny hated this situation so much he requested that the player help him to leave the hostage situation and live on his own in Deadtree. The player will have to create a fake ID for him so he can be old enough to leave, and loop the security feeds. When Johnny leaves Division 47, he can be found in the Nighthowl Saloon. His relationship with Ophelia is unknown.
Johnny is the only green-skinned Alien-Sim hybrid to appear in the portable versions of the games. Notably, instead of having green eyes, he has black eyes, like his father. Any aliens a player makes in The Sims 2 for PSP will always have black eyes. However, if their skin color is changed to any others, the eye color of the Sim will always be green.
Despite the fact that he is technically adult, the player's Sim says he is a "Pouding Teenager".[confirmation needed]
