The only thing PT9 loves more than his lawn is his family. When he is not spending time with his children, he enjoys clipping coupons and staring up at the sky.
Pollination Technician 9 is an alien character in both The Sims 2 and The Sims 2 for PlayStation Portable.
Life leading up to The Sims 2
Though technically a strange extraterrestrial, Pollination Technician 9 is the patriarch of Strangetown, and father of four of its citizens. Although he seems to have had a very strange occupation in his adulthood, Pollination Technician 9 always wanted to just have a regular family.
Retiring after his ascent into elderhood, he adopted the last name "Smith" and started a new family in the heart of Strangetown, becoming a well-known community leader who's respected and admired by most of his neighbors, excluding his resentful neighbor - and enemy - General Buzz Grunt, with whom he is feuding.
He seems to be one of the very few aliens to have hair, most have the same gaunt face and features, only bald.
Unlike most aliens, who have black hair genetics, he has red hair genetics; his daughter, Chloe, has red hair and her human father, Glarn, has black hair (shown in pictures and in Lazlo, Pascal, and Lola's hair). If he has another child(ren) with Jenny while she's still an adult, there's a 50% chance that it will have red hair.
There is a poster called Surfing the Universe depicting an alien named RT#67 who is Pollination Technician 9#'s cousin, according to the description. Though so is said in description, the family tree does not show RT#67.
Life leading up to The Sims 2 (PSP version)
Pollination Technician is even older and lives with his wife and daughter. The player has to free his son Johnny in a mini game. He wears an outfit similar to a Pollination Technician in one mini-game. He lives in Division 47. His facial structure is different from the PC version. In the game he speaks slowly and with no facility, possibly because he is just learning to speak Simlish.
