Piggy is very fat and shorter than Ralph, he wears thick spectacles and suffers from Asthma. He uses his asthma as an excuse not to exert himself physically. Piggy is lazy. Piggy is fairly intelligent but not as intelligent as he thinks he is. He is rather intolerant of anyone else expressing an opinion which differs from his own. Piggy's appearance and manner of speaking marks him as a social outcast and the fact that he talks and acts like an adult only serves to alienate him even further from the other boys. Ralph is pretty tall and well built for his age, he apparently has an attractive appearance and he is a good swimmer. He is friendly, fair and shows some consideration for others. Ralph leads by example and tries to do so with the approval of the other boys. He seems to prefer to discus things and persuade the others rather than to simply order them to to do things, as Jack would do. Ralph seems to suffer from Petit Mal epilepsy which may be why he often loses track of what he is saying.
Piggy is Ralph's best ally but he does not stand up for Piggy.
Ralph is obviously the leader and Piggy is a followers, he likes to please Ralph. Ralph is also stronger and smarter, unlike Piggy. ..... Poor Piggy
he keeps on saying piggy piggy and he lets jack and the other know his name and they teases him about it
Ralph wants to get Piggy's specs back and Piggy wanted to kill Jack there and then.
Piggy & Ralph
Piggy and Ralph are both characters in Lord of the Flies. The problem with Piggy and Ralph's plane is that it goes down and there are no grown-ups around to care for them.

Piggy.
Ralph's reaction to Piggy's nickname of "Piggy" is surprising because he initially scolds Piggy for revealing his real name, and later adopts the same nickname himself. This shows Ralph's shift in attitude towards Piggy and his acceptance of him as a friend.
Ralph and Piggy use a conch shell to call the boys together.
Ralph admired Piggy only in the end, once he wept for him. He admired him for remaining civilized and intellectual. Otherwise, it was Piggy who admired Ralph. Hope this helped!
Piggy and Ralph are the only two at the pool because the other boys have gone off to participate in a hunting expedition led by Jack. Piggy and Ralph choose to stay behind as Piggy is unable to swim and Ralph wants to work on the signal fire.
