Disney needed a villain to place against his new star [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit]], and Pete was introduced to his new adversary in the sixth Oswald short ''[[The Ocean Hop]]'' (September 8, 1927). Apparently inspired by [[Charles Lindbergh]], the two enter an aeroplane race across the Atlantic Ocean.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.disneyshorts.org/shorts.aspx?shortID=73|title=1927: The Ocean Hop|publisher=Disney Shorts|access-date=2012-05-28|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120330020217/http://www.disneyshorts.org/shorts.aspx?shortID=73|archive-date=2012-03-30}}</ref> By the time producer [[Charles Mintz]] moved production of the Oswald series to his own studio, Pete had been established as the most consistently appearing supporting character to Oswald, and the character continued to appear in that role in the Oswald films directed and produced by [[Walter Lantz]] until 1937, making him essentially the only cartoon character at the time to frequently appear in shorts produced by two rival animation studios. His most notable non-Disney appearance was as a captain in ''Permanent Wave'' (September 29, 1929).
