The Scoots emote features a green frog character (a variant of Pepe the Frog) wearing a blue shirt. It's a BetterTTV (BTTV) emote that conveys a sense of movement, urgency, or scurrying away. The emote's cartoonish and somewhat awkward appearance makes it perfect for expressing hurried reactions or comical situations.

The emote is based on Pepe the Frog, a character originally created by artist Matt Furie in 2005 that has become extremely popular in internet culture, particularly on Twitch. This specific variant shows Pepe in a blue shirt with a distinctive posture that suggests movement, hence the name 'Scoots'.
