Stitch (also known by his species/"birth name" Experiment 626; number pronounced "six-two-six") is a fictional character in Disney's Lilo & Stitch franchise. An illegally created, genetically engineered, alien lifeform resembling a blue koala, he is one of the franchise's two title characters, alongside his human adopter and best friend Lilo Pelekai, and its most prominent protagonist. Stitch was created by Lilo & Stitch co-writer and co-director Chris Sanders, who also voices him in all Western-produced media in which he appears. Benjamin Diskin voices the character in the English versions of the Eastern-produced television spin-offs Steek! and Stitch & Ai.

In the franchise's chronology, he was originally created by Dr. Jumba Jookiba to cause chaos in the galaxy. Stitch is characterized by his mischievous behavior, which endeared him to Lilo, who adopted him as her "dog". Through Lilo's beliefs in the Hawaiian concept of ʻohana, meaning "family", Stitch evolved from an uncaring, destructive being to a loving, more self-aware being who enjoys the company of his adoptive family on Earth. He became a strong believer in the ʻohana concept and, with Lilo's help, applied it to reform Jumba's 625 previous experiments, almost all of which Stitch considers his "cousins".
