I think Robbie is adopted, and here's why.
Think back to the episode "Love God" when Mabel is walking down the hall to Robbie's Room and passes the portraits on the wall.
(1) Young Robbie, Happy, Gleeful. one of the first pictures, before he found out he was adopted.
(2) Robbie, about Dipper and Mabel's age, still happy, but slightly distant. Robbie was a smart kid, just like Dipper and Mabel, with natural musical talent, Julliard level talent, and it's about this time he found out he was adopted.
(3) Serious Robbie, dressed nice, as if travelling a lot. This is where my imagination takes off. Robbie found his Mother. She's in a rehabilitation hospital in Portland, suffering from severe memory loss. While visiting her there, Robbie also finds his birth certificate and her Marriage License. He now knows his fathers name. After a bit of searching he finds him, in Gravity Falls! His Father is "blind Ivan"!
Ivan invented the memory erasing gun, and while showing it to his lovely wife, it misfires, without a memory tube attached and no memory setting! The shot hits Robbie's mother, completely erasing her entire memory, leaving her in a vegetative state, unable to feed or go to the bathroom by herself. Ivan, deeply distraught, erases his memories of ever having met her or creating the device, leaving him scarred and blind in one eye, forgetting baby Robbie in the process. Robbie is then adopted by the Valentino's, possible because they can't have children of their own.
(4) Angry Robbie, he has all this tragedy dumped upon him, and can't cope with it, he becomes an angry kid, and finally, he goes to the society of the blind eye to have his memory erase, just like his Father did.
(5) Goth Robbie, after the memory of his adoption quest is gone, all that is left is angry, unhappy Goth Robbie, hurting and more alone than ever, and why he dreads loss. Mabel is the first person that ever cared about him, just because she cared, without other reasons.
My name is Dip--Tyrone! I don't even know why I would call myself Dipper. No one calls me Dipper. My name is Tyrone Pines and I would like to be on Total Drama, because I would like to meet new people.
I honestly used to like her, she was like the comedy relief of the show, whenever something serious was going on she would be doing something funny, hilarious, etc. But as episodes went by she constantly forced Dipper to give up something for her (Example: Date With Wendy, Summer pool job, etc) but in the episode Dipper and Mabel Vs. The Future is where i lost it. She gives away Dippers peice of the portal to Blendin (Who was possessed by Bill) and destroys it , opening the Dimensional Rift to where Bills from causing the apocalypse. How selfish of her. She does not want her brother to have a good future even though he sacrificed himself various times. How disgusting.
