through out the novel piggy makes small but inteligent decicions and suggests ideas that show intelegence like when he suggest they use the conch to control who's allowed to talk.He also reconises when Ralph suggests that his father will come and recuse the boys, that no one no's that they're there therefor wouldn't be able to rescue them. Even though piggy may seem like he's lacking intellegenge because of his appearance and speech he actually makes so really key suggestions through the novel again when he suggests taking the littleuns names making sure they don't lose them etc.. overall piggy makes small and sometimes incignificant suggestions but actually if they were in a civilized normal town/city they would be considered intelegent hope that helped x

Piggy is a sympathetic character because he is somewhat of an outcast and is picked on by the other boys. He also remains loyal to Ralph and tries to maintain sanity on the island.

Who is the most sympathetic character in Lord of the Flies and why?

That would be a matter of personal opinion. Some people might argue that Simon, who told Ralph that he'd get back to where he came from and picked fruit for the littluns was the most sympathetic character in the book. Others however might argue that Piggy, who knelt down next to the littlun with the mulberry coloured birthmark on his face and persauded him to talk about the snake-thing was more sympathetic. There is also an argument in favour of Ralph. He reminded Jack that the littluns needed the security of shelters, he insisted that Piggy stay behind to comfort the littluns when the biguns went to look for the beast. Ralph also wanted someone to go and inform Piggy that they would be late returning.
