Phoebe doesn't really hang out with them that much, but she is quite nice to them when they do. All four kids have been shown to have some fun together.
  • Barb and Hank - The twins make fun of their parents wherever they get a chance - and they always stick together to fool their parents. They also think that they both have somewhat of a lame personality. However, Phoebe really looks up to them, and Max somewhat does as well. Both Hank and Barb clearly like Phoebe more than Max, however that is mostly because Max was wanting to be a supervillain, and they both have been warming up to Max a lot since he chose to become a superhero.
  • Chloe - Neither twin really talks to her that much. However, both try to be her favorite sibling, and they use her to teleport them to many places.

  • Link - Link and Phoebe were a couple from Meet the Evilmans to Give Me A Break Up and went to prom together in Secret Revealed. Phoebe truly loved Link, as did he. However, she didn't want to spend nearly a hundred percent of her time with him. Max was very mean to Link and they hated each other, although they were temporarily friends in It's Not What You Link.
  • Oyster - They are both friends with him; he is probably Max's best friend aside from Colosso. They are often seen to be hanging out together along with Cherry.
  • Gideon - He is one of Max's best friends, and one of Phoebe's (somewhat). Both think he is kind of stupid and don't like him very much, and they both find his crush on Barb disgusting. Gideon also thinks that he is Phoebe's boyfriend, which is clearly not the case.
