!! Malefor
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/skylanders_malefor1.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:''“Summon every Skylander from the far corners of this world to stand before my might and be broken! I am Malefor! And I am magnificent!”'']]
The self-proclaimed Undead Dragon King; another carryover from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro''. He was first mentioned in the character bios of Cynder and Hex, but did not actually appear in ''Skylanders'' until the IDW Publishing comic series.
----
%%* AllThereInTheManual
* ArchEnemy: To Spyro. [[spoiler:Because according to Malefor, he fought Spyro before. However, Spyro has no memory of ever facing Malefor prior to the ''Return of the Dragon King'' comic story arc, and Hex was known as the one who defeated him.]]
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Consumed the powers of Spyro, Cynder and Hex to resurrect himself.]]
* BadassBoast:
** Malefor delivers one upon his resurrection when he stands before the unconscious forms of Spyro, Cynder, Hex and Wallop:
--->'''Malefor:''' You are as nothing before me, feeble Skylanders! Soon all of Skylands will tremble before the awesome might of Malefor, the Undead Dragon King!
** Delivers another one when he battles the forty Skylanders for the fate of the Skylanders Academy:
--->'''Malefor:''' Summon every Skylander from the far corners of this world to stand before my might and be broken! I am Malefor! And I am magnificent!
** He delivers another when his final battle with the Skylanders was at its climax :
--->'''Malefor:''' I told you, I am more powerful than ever. I have truly become the Undead Dragon King!
* BerserkButton: [[spoiler:When Malefor is struck by one of Wallop's Traptanium Hammer, which was AT FULL POWER. This was part of a plan to get Malefor's attention and make him angry enough to try and chase the Skylanders around. It did the trick.]]
* BigBad: Of the ''Return of the Dragon King'' IDW comic story arc, which also serves as his debut in the ''Skylanders'' franchise.
%%* TheBusCameBack: He will be making his first game debut in the RPG mobile game, ''Skylanders: Ring of Heroes''.%%Don't trope unreleased material.
* CanonImmigrant: As stated, he originated in the ''Legend of Spyro'' continuity.
* CrazyPrepared: Unlike most villains in the ''Skylanders'' series, Malefor is very competent. As soon as he imprisoned Spyro, Cynder, Hex and Wallop, Malefor went straight to fulfilling his motive. He defeated an army of forty Skylanders and planned on destroying the Skylanders Academy to build a stronghold in its place before beginning his rule over all of Skylands.
* CruelMercy: [[spoiler:Does this to Spyro, Cynder and Hex. Instead of finishing them off there and then, Malefor has the three Skylanders, including Wallop, imprisoned as he wanted them to suffer the same pain and frustration they caused him.]]
* {{Cyborg}}: In addition to his PoweredArmor, Malefor seems to have converted himself into a cyborg, having a cybernetic tail and wings at the very least.
* {{Dracolich}}: Unlike his living self from ''The Legend of Spyro'' games, this Malefor is an undead dragon.
%%* EvilOverlord: He rules the underworld.
* GreaterScopeVillain: For Spyro, Cynder and Hex. In the past, Malefor corrupted many Skylands inhabitants into his servants including Cynder, and later hunted down Hex and caused her to become the undead Skylander she is today.
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:Sometime after his defeat at the hands of Hex, Malefor targets Spyro, Cynder and Hex, the three very Skylanders who caused him so much pain and fustration than anyone else. He planned to make them suffer by using their powers he stole to destroy everything they knew and loved and wanted to make them watch as he was crowned overlord of all Skylands.]]
* KnightOfCerebus: [[spoiler:Considered to be one of, if not ''the'' most malevolent enemy Spyro ever faced (in ''and'' out of universe- his ''Legend'' counterpart nearly succeeded at destroying their world). As soon as he appeared in his comic debut, fans felt like they weren't reading a regular Skylanders comic anymore. The usual lighthearted atmosphere turns serious as soon as Malefor becomes a main threat.]]
* LittleNo[=/=]BigNo: Says this when he is being forcefully pulled over the edge of the Academy island towards the endless abyss of Skylands and when he eventually falls to wherever he may end up.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: As if Malefor wasn't already one, he gave himself the title "The Undead Dragon King".
* OneManArmy: [[spoiler:With the powers of Spyro, Cynder and Hex that he absorbed, he defeated an army of Skylanders, including the powerful Giants, at once with a single blow of his weaponized tail.]]
* PleaseIWillDoAnything: [[spoiler:When Malefor is tethered to the damaged Dread-Yacht and is being pulled over the edge of the island to the endless abyss along with the ship. He pleads to Calliope to help him, she refuses.]]
-->[[spoiler:'''Malefor:''' Calliope! Please help me! I'll do anything you ask! I'll send you back to your family! Whatever you want will be yours!]]\\
[[spoiler:'''Calliope:''' All I want is to never see you again. Enjoy your trip, Malefor.]]
* PoweredArmor: [[spoiler:He constructed steampunk armor after his fight with Hex left him nearly destroyed. While it helps keep Malefor patched together, WordOfGod mentioned that the armor he wears stores magical energy which makes him even stronger than he used to be.]]
* PowerParasite: [[spoiler:In his comic debut, he absorbed the powers of Skylanders with a crystal Calliope created for him to make himself stronger and made him nigh-invulnerable.]]
* PutOnABus: After his debut in the IDW comics, Malefor doesn't make another full appearance in the main Skylanders games nor other related content, though he appeared as a Skystone cameo in ''Skylanders: [=SuperChargers=]''.
* TakeOverTheWorld: [[spoiler:Plans to rule Skylands as its overlord.]]
* TheDeterminator: Malefor will not stop until he is crowned king of Skylands and the greatest and most powerful of them all. Any obstacle or opposition he faces is simply a minor setback to him.
* TheUndead: Is the self-proclaimed king of the underworld.
* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:See the PleaseIWillDoAnything trope above.]]
* VillainOfAnotherStory: He appears in a major role in the background stories of several Skylanders, is described as the Dragon King of the underworld, has a history with Cynder, and Hex is noted to have done battle with him, but never actually appeared in the story itself. [[spoiler:Malefor eventually made his debut in the comic story arc, Skylanders: Return of the Dragon King, where Spyro, Cynder, and Hex fought him again.]]

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/glumshaniks.jpg]]
-> Voiced by: Creator/ChrisCox
Kaos' loyal, regularly put-upon servant.
----
* AntiVillain: He never really does anything evil, apart from the time he was Evilized, and pretty much has nothing against the Skylanders. After his HeelFaceTurn in ''[=SuperChargers=]'', he is a genuine hero, and a NiceGuy.
* ButtMonkey: If Glumshanks appears, expect something bad to happen to him in some way.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* HeelFaceTurn: In ''[=SuperChargers=]''. Although he still remains with Kaos, [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor even in ''Imaginators'']].
%%* ExtremeDoormat
* MinionWithAnFInEvil: He really isn't all that evil, and both he and Kaos are well aware of this. Kaos does make him less of this trope in Swap Force with his dark crystals, but being beaten by the Skylanders results reverting back to this trope.
* ServileSnarker: While ultimatley loyal to his master, there are still times where he finds himself snarking at Kaos's egotistical attitude.
* TankGoodness: Evil Glumshanks creates a tank from scrap and rides it.
* {{Technopath}}: Can create and control machinery as Evil Glumshanks.
* WhatWouldXDo: "What Would Kaos Do?" Evil Glumshanks says this whenever he's in a tight situation.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_darkness_8.jpg]]

-> [[spoiler:Voiced by: Creator/IkeAmadi (''[=SuperChargers=]'')]]
The ultimate force behind most of the evil in Skylands.
----
* BigBad: Halfway through ''[=SuperChargers=]'', it takes the role, demonstrating its dominance over [[spoiler:Kaos. Notably, it's the first villain since Kaos himself to keep the role for the entire game.]]
* BadassBaritone: [[spoiler:It speaks in a deep, sultry voice.]]
%%* CastingAShadow
* FauxAffablyEvil: [[spoiler:Its friendly and encouraging attitude towards Kaos is ultimately shown to be nothing more than manipulation on his end. It ends up dropping this when Kaos starts to have second thoughts about destroying Skylands, threatening to take away his powers if he doesn't obey it]].
%%* FinalBoss: Of ''[=SuperChargers=]''.
* GodOfDarkness: The Darkness is an EldritchAbomination serving as an EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity backing the [[EvilSorceror Dark Portal Master]] Kaos. In the first game, it plays a major role as the [[YinYangClash counterpart]] to the Core of Light, the congregation of Skylands' elements that kept it at bay until Kaos blew it up and let the Darkness take over the land, with the player encountering many spawns of the Darkness over the course of the game as enemies. It had a sparingly few mentions in later games, with ''Swap Force'' featuring [[PowerCrystal Petrified Darkness]] that transformed enemies into stronger and more evil versions of themselves and supplementary materials for ''Trap Team'' stating that the Darkness and [[CastingAShadow the Dark Element]] were one and the same until ''[=SuperChargers=]'' where it [[spoiler:reveals itself as [[ItCanThink a living being and an actively malevolent force]] by backstabbing Kaos and usurping him as the FinalBoss]]. As a primordial, immortal force of evil that has existed for countless [[{{Pun}} eons]], it's the closest thing the franchise had to a god until [[{{Precursors}} the Ancients]] and [[GodIsEvil Brain]] were introduced.
* GreaterScopeVillain: It gave the Dark Portal Masters their powers, including Kaos and his mom. A few of the Skylanders bios also have it play a key role in their backstories.
* KnightOfCerebus: [[spoiler:Once it starts talking to Kaos, the plot takes a more darker turn, with it coming closer to destroying Skylands than any other villain before or since]].
* {{Leitmotif}}: An ominous orchestral melody.
%%* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler: To Kaos]] in ''[=SuperChargers=]''.
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:It gains a physical body out of the Sky Eater.]]
%%* SuddenlyVoiced: In ''[=SuperChargers=]''.
%%* TalkingInYourSleep: Glumshanks mentions that he does this.
* UltimateEvil: It's more of an indestructible force of evil than a character [[spoiler: until ''[=SuperChargers=]'']].
* WalkingSpoiler: The Darkness is secretly TheManBehindTheMan Kaos has been serving for the entire series, and it is assumed he is merely talking about its power and abilities whenever he mentions it. Eventually in ''[=SuperChargers=]'', it's revealed it's completely sentient and actively wants the destruction of everything.
!! The Arkeyans
An ancient civilization, made incredibly advanced by learning to merge magic and technology - in fact, ''Giants'' explains that they were ''themselves'' {{Magitek}} robots. They ruled the Skylands 10,000 years ago using the Fist of Arkus, until a group of Giants banded together and were able to end their reign.
----
* AbusivePrecursors: A Tablet in ''Spyro's Adventure'' says they were tyrants, and the Weapon Master (''himself'' an Arkeyan creation) admits they kept the Source of Magic for themselves so they'd stay superior to the others. ''Giants'' takes this further, making them the main antagonists.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In the 3DS version of Giants. It was the [[LawfulEvil Arkeyans]] who locked up Frightbeard and his fleet inside the Chest of Exile for [[ChaoticEvil being too destructive and dangerous.]]
* KeystoneArmy: The army is controlled by the Fist of Arkus - tear the fist off the robot it's built into, and the army deactivates.
%%* {{Magitek}}
%%* MechanicalLifeforms
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Chop Chop, Drill Sergeant, and Bouncer are all Arkeyans that have sided with the Skylanders against their own kind. Various Arkeyan [=NPCs=] have also aided the Skylanders.

Villain of Pirate Seas bonus level; a pirate captain with a taste for gambling. Returns in ''Giants'', in one of the main levels this time.
----
* AscendedExtra: From the villain of an optional bonus level to an important character in the main game of ''Giants''. Granted, it was a minor role, but still impressive compared to the other bonus level villains.
%%* CaptainColorbeard
* DefeatEqualsFriendship: In ''Giants'', he joins [[spoiler:Flynn's crew and offers to play Skystones with the Skylanders anytime]].
%%* TheGamblingAddict
* GangOfHats: He and his crew's whole gimmick is card games, which feature prominatly in his appearances. Pirate Seas has him play the card matching "Pirate Cards", while ''Giants'' has him change to Skystones, with his level introducing the player to the game.

----
* CainAndAbel: With Ramses. Vathek is the Cain to Ramses's Abel.
%%* ObviouslyEvil: Just look at him!
* SssnakeTalk: His "s" sounds are always pronounced.
* TheUnfought: [[spoiler:Flavius turns him to stone before he gets the chance to fight you. He does get a proper (albeit [[AntiClimaxBoss disappointing]]) fight in the 3DS version, though.]]
* TheUsurper: Vathek always wanted to be king of Dragon's Peak, but is known as a evil and horrible dragon. When Ramses and his dragon knight Flavius went out flying, Vathek sat on the Dragon's Throne, allowing him to become king of Dragon's Peak by Dragon Law. He then used the power of the Dragon's Throne to turn his own brother to stone.

* DarkIsEvil: She proclaims herself to be the strongest Portal Master on the side of Darkness.
* EvilerThanThou: Pulls this on her son after his defeat [[spoiler: only for Kaos to pull it on ''her'' after her own defeat, making her proud of her son for being more evil.]]
* {{Expy}}: From her hair to her magic powers, this woman could be [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent's]] stunt double.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Talks to the Skylander in a motherly tone of voice upon meeting them, but quickly drops this facade prior to attacking them.
* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: When you're about to fight Kaos' Mom, the camera work and dialog begs to question if she's talking to the Skylanders or the Portal Master(I.E. the player).
* GreaterScopeVillain: She's more powerful than her son (except for when he uses evil materials and substances to power himself up) and presumably had a role in his becoming a portal master, plus she was responsible for the Cloudbreak Island attack 100 years ago. So far, however, she's only made one full appearance.

* NoNameGiven: She's only ever referred to as Kaos' Mom.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She appears much younger than one would expect, seeing as she's well over a hundred.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* {{Revision}}: Though Kaossandra's real name was initially created solely for the Skylanders Academy TV show, the name would later be retconned into her canon name in Skylanders: A Portal Master's Guide to Skylands. Though, according to Kaos, most people would rather refer to her in relation to him instead.
* SealedEvilInACan: [[spoiler: After you defeat her, she gets stuck in the mirror she used to contact Kaos earlier in the game.]]
* SoProudOfYou: Her thoughts of Kaos [[spoiler:after he left her to the Skylanders to continue his EvilPlan.]] [[spoiler:Just imagine how proud she'd be if she knew that he double-crossed [[UltimateEvil The Darkness itself!]]]]

[[folder:Other Trappable Villains (''Trap Team'')]]
!! Chompy
The stalk-eyed, green, MascotMook of the series, this one in particular get its own spot due to being PromotedToPlayable, though general tropes about Chompies can be covered here as well.
----
* AffablyEvil: Considering the fact that it ''beat-boxes'' in jail after being captured, it was most likely this before becoming good.
* AmbiguousGender
* EliteMooks: It was a trappable villain, and like many after it, there are loads of its unobtainable brethren to fight after its capture. In addition, a colorful [[KillItWithFire fire-using]] Chompy villain named Boris Blisterbottom appears.
%%* HiddenDepths: Apparently likes to beat-box.
* TheGoomba: It's kind are always the first enemies faced by the Skylanders, as well as their easiest, up to the point that Giants can kill them by just walking into them.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A rather unfocused, but bouncy ragtime piece.
%%* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Its trademark weapons of choice.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Which can be said about other {{Elite Mook|s}} player characters as well.
* OffModel: In ''Swap Force'' and in the 3DS version of ''Trap Team'', the Chompies have bigger eyes and smaller bodies.
* SpikesOfVillainy: Three sprout out from each arm, though they don't serve much of a purpose.
* StarterVillain: It's the first villain you can trap, though Sheep Creep comes soon after to demonstrate how to trap villains.
* TheUnintelligible: Can only make growls, clicks, and other guttural noises.
* ZergRush: The species attack strategy in general, considering their weak stature, it's obvious how well it works for them.
!! Sheep Creep
* HiddenWeapons: It looks like any other sheep at first glance, but it announces itself after its identity is pointed out by Buzz by springing its weapons from its body.
* KillerRabbit: It has two rocket launchers or gatling guns hidden in its fur.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A lively hillbilly banjo jam that sounds like a one sided "dueling banjos" piece.
* StarterVillain: It is used to demonstrate how to trap villains.
%%* TheUnintelligible: It can only bleat.
!! Tussle Sprout
-> Voiced by: Creator/TomKenny
%%* DegradedBoss
%%* EliteMooks
* FlunkyBoss: Since he has rather limited attacks, he calls on backup.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A silly theme with tuba and whistling.
%%* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch
* PoisonousPerson: He can make a poisonous mist for close combat.
!! Buzzer Beak
%%* AmbiguousGender
%%* AssistCharacter:
* DemotedToExtra: It reappears in ''Imaginators'' as a summonable minion by Tae Kwon Crow.
%%* EliteMooks
%%* FeatheredFiend
* FlunkyBoss: It stands on the sidelines sending mooks after you before coming down itself.
* {{Leitmotif}}: An airy and frantic theme.
%%* HelicopterBlender: One of its attacks.
* IncendiaryExponent: As minions of Tae Kwon Crow, he can light them on fire with his burning kicks, making them fight harder [[ActionBomb before exploding.]]
* NiceHat: One which allows for flight, though this seems pointless because Buzzer Beak is already a bird.
* NoIndoorVoice: To communicate, it screeches very loudly.
!! Slobber Trap
-> Voiced by: Creator/GreggBerger
* AllAnimalsAreDogs: It vounds around and barks like a dog.
%%* DegradedBoss
%%* DumbMuscle
* {{Leitmotif}}: A bongo heavy theme.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Slobber Trap admits he never was a member of the Doom Raiders. He said he didn't trust their scent.
* NonIndicativeName: Slobber Trap has no attacks related to trapping opponents. He also has a Non-Indicative ''appearance'' looking like an animalistic creature made of dirt with grass and a flower growing out of it, yet is not an Earth or Life character. He's a [[MakingASplash Water-oriented character]].
!! Bruiser Cruiser
-> Voiced by: Creator/MitchellWhitfield
* BadBoss: In his introduction, he uses the mecha to punch the troll mechanics who just finished it.
* BullfightBoss: Only ever charges straight ahead pumping its fists, before reaching a wall and jumping to turn around.
%%* DegradedBoss
* GoodOldFisticuffs: His mech has two giant boxing gloves that he punches with.
* {{Leitmotif}}: An appropriately slightly sinister hip-hop sport theme with some light electric guitar thrown in.
%%* MiniMecha
* MotionCaptureMecha: Seems this is how the troll manages to control his vehicle.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Alongside all the other playable troll characters.
* NominalImportance: Due to him operating a Bruiser Cruiser mech, the troll character is just titled "Bruiser Cruiser" and is never named.
!! Broccoli Guy
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
%%* AmbiguouslyGay
* ClearMyName: He claims to have been framed before the fight starts.
%%* BareYourMidriff: Which is strange, to say the least.
* FlunkyBoss: Since there isn't much he can do fighting-wise, he relies on two Slobber Traps to attack you. After they're beaten he more or less becomes a GetBackHereBoss.
%%* FunnyAfro: Made out of a broccoli bushel.
* StaffChick: He isn't too handy in a fight, but he's ''very'' useful as a healer.
%%* TheMedic: A rare villainous version.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A laid-back synth piece that wouldn't sound too out of place in, say, a healthy eating ad.
* PaletteSwap: He has a different version called Steamed Broccoli Guy.
%%* ThirdPersonPerson
!! Shrednaught
%%* ChainsawGood: Well, not pre-HeelFaceTurn in any case.
* TankGoodness: Though unlike most, this tank is more suited for closer-combat than long range.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Against their own troll bretheren when recruited.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A moderately-intense heavy metal tune.
* NominalImportance: While the trolls do have names ([[YouAreNumber6 or at least numbers]]), the announcer and characters just call them collectively "Shrednaught" due to them operating a Shrednaught mech.
* SteamPunk: Like most troll vehicles, the two trolls' tank appears to be built like a steam train of sorts.
* YouAreNumber6: The crews names are Troll One and Troll Two.
!! Chill Bill
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Unlike all of the other trolls, who are green, he is blue.
* AnIcePerson: Unlike the other trolls, [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation he is blue]], and he uses a freeze gun as his attack.
* BeingEvilSucks: Not in ''Trap Team'', but as a retired bad guy in ''Imaginators''. Him and Broccoli Guy come to the realization that they were crazy to try and fight such a tough opponent as the skylanders during the arena commentary.
* ForTheEvulz: His introductory cutscene is him freezing birds until he notices you.
* OurTrollsAreDifferent: A blue one obsessed with freezing things with an ice gun.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Befitting his former occupation as a Troll Radio DJ, it's a cool jazz beat. It's also worth noting that his theme has been used in various commercials as well, such as for UsefulNotes/McDonalds Monopoly ads.
!! Trolling Thunder
%%* EliteMooks
* HeelFaceTurn: Considering the nature of the game, it's not surprising. What sets him apart however is the fact that he {{lampshade|Hanging}}s DefeatMeansFriendship/[[DefeatMeansPlayable Playable]], and states his reasons for doing so.
%%* TankGoodness: Depends on who's side he's on anyway.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: It's hard to tell which. Nevertheless, he lightly {{lampshade|Hanging}}s it.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Marching tunes seem to be a theme among playable trolls.
* LargeAndInCharge: well when he's in his MiniMecha anyway, he's the largest playable villain, and is an {{Elite Mook|s}} of the Doom Raiders.
* NominalImportance: Due to him operating a Trolling Thunder mech, the troll character is just titled "Trolling Thunder" and is never named.
!! Cuckoo Clocker
-> Voiced by: Creator/FredTatasciore
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: His attacks are probably some of the least impressive performance-wise (a ground-pound with both his fists that takes a second to perform), but makes up for it with the power backing it. More specifically, a fully charged critical hit from his enhanced form will deal around 2000 damage, letting him one-shot any non-boss enemy ''in the game''.
* TheDragon: Possibly to Chef Pepper Jack, as he was present during Clocker's fight and referred to the behemoth as, "my secret ingredient".
%%* FeatheredFiend
* {{Leitmotif}}: A tribal drum piece with lots of auxiliary backing it.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Not fighting-wise, but if his intro is any indication, he behaves a lot like a wrestler from WWE.
!! Bomb Shell
-> Voiced by: Creator/GregEllis
* AffablyEvil: He's pretty polite, he even states that he doesn't mind being brought to prison because it reminds him of his shell.
%%* DegradedBoss
%%* IAmVeryBritish: Has an upper-class accent.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A surprisingly calm country theme.
%%* MadBomber: With less emphasis on the "mad" part.
%%* ThrowDownTheBomblet: Magic bombs to be precise.
%%* TurtlePower
!! Brawlrus
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
* AbnormalAmmo: His cannon fires spinning starfish.

%%* DegradedBoss
* FlunkyBoss: Pirate enemies drop in periodically in his fight.
%%* HandCannon: His weapon of choice.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A peppy seafaring tune.
%%* {{Pirate}}
!! Masker Mind
-> Voiced by: Creator/TomKenny
%%* {{Brainwashed}}: His shtick.
* DemonicPossession: Signified by his mask on his victim's face. Best shown in his intro, where he takes over a defeated Bomb Shell.
* FlunkyBoss: When his host is beaten, he runs about and some Pirate Chompies hop onto the field.
* TheHyena: Laughs a lot, even when he crash lands in his prison.
* HypocriticalHumor: As he's being caught, he whines about how you aren't supposed to be using magic to beat him, not remembering that he uses magic even more.
%%* HypnoTrinket: His mask.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A grand orchestral sting and horn piece that would not be out of place in Film/HarryPotter.
* MindProbe: Can read minds along with his possessing abilities, which he reveals after his capture.
%%* PerpetualSmiler
%%* PunnyName: A combo of "mask" and "mastermind".
%%* SignatureLaugh: "Ah ho ho ho ho!"
* SquishyWizard: Due to relying on brainwashing his enemy, there isn't much he can do after his host has been beaten aside from running about.
* StockAnimalBehavior: Looks like a fly or insect, and flies about like one in the Trap field, bumping repeatedly into the sides.
%%* VillainOverride: How he's introduced.
!! Brawl and Chain

%%* AwesomeMcCoolname
%%* BloodKnight
* EpicFlail: His hook hands detach, and can be used like flails to attack.

!! Chomp Chest
-> Voiced by: Creator/PatrickSeitz
%%* BigEater
%%* BullfightBoss
* ChestMonster: Subverted, he looks like a chest, but he isn't even opened to surprise the heroes.
* ExtremeOmnivore: He really likes to eat treasure, some of the things you can get from beating him senseless include bracelets, necklaces, gold teeth, candle holders, and heart-shaped lockets. It's a wonder he never tried to eat the Golden Queen.
%%* TheHyena: He really cracks up as he attacks.
* LargeHam: "Does your cafeteria here serve TREASURE!?! Just asking!"
* {{Leitmotif}}: A bouncy pirate-like piece with accordion, tuba, and flute parts
* ManBitesMan: Since he's not much besides a maw supported by a treasure chest, this is his main method of attack.
* MoneySpider: His fight is useful for gathering money, as each hit knocks treasure out of him.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
!! Eye Scream
-> Voiced by: Creator/KimberlyBrooks
* BodyHorror: Her eye is in her mouth, which she can spew copies of to attack, she's also sewn together.
%%* CastingAShadow

%%* LightEmUp
* RealMenWearPink: Has a bow in his hair.
!! Hood Sickle
-> Voiced by: Creator/JBBlanc
At first glance, it’s easy to be frightened by Hood Sickle. Some say it’s his imposing stature that freaks them out. Others are unnerved by his menacing hood. But most just try to stay away from his long, sharp scythe-- and it didn’t help that he had a bad habit of disappearing and then suddenly popping up behind unsuspecting people. In fact, the Trap Masters that locked him away in Cloudcracker Prison hoped they would never have to see him again. But Master Eon thought there might be a chance for Hood Sickle to change his ways. Everyone said Eon was crazy, but after spending time with the mysterious creep, Eon learned that Hood Sickle was actually not a bad guy-- just really super spooky. Hood Sickle took his job of terrifying others very seriously, and Eon believed that perhaps he could bring a similar dedication to teaching others as a Sensei. Plus, he figured that Skylanders in training would certainly pay attention in his classes. This has all proven true, and Hood Sickle now teaches Sentinel Imaginators, who definitely hang on his every word. Or else.

* NotEvilJustMisunderstood: Retconned to this. Apparently, he's just really scary looking, [[StealthHiBye and has a bad habit of just appearing behind people.]] Terrifying people was, quite simply, his job, which he took very seriously. Luckily, Eon noticed and made him a Sensei.
* OppositesAttract: Suggests this as a reason he might have a shot at asking Persephone out; she's got no legs and he has no head.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning

!! Pain-Yatta
-> Voiced by: Kevin Schon
Growing up, Pain-Yatta's best friend was the legendary Unocorn, a unicorn with a churro-horn that sprinkles magical cinnamon from time to time. While the cinnamon donuts for breakfast were incredible, being so sweet and delicious made them both easy targets for those looking for yummy treats. But Pain-Yatta had no problem protecting the both of them with his giant sucker! One day, however, the Unocorn went missing, and Pain-Yatta was beside himself. He tried desperately to find his buddy, but to no avail. That's when the Doom Raiders tricked him into thinking that the Skylanders were behind it all, and Pain-Yatta fell for it hook, line and sinker. He joined up with the band of villains and ventured out to get revenge on the Skylanders, but was eventually captured by the Trap Masters. Master Eon explained that the Skylanders had nothing to do with the Unocorn's disappearance and said he would help Pain-Yatta find his friend, if he became a Skylander Sensei and trained new Imaginators in the ways of smashing! Pain-Yatta agreed and the search for the missing Unocorn continues.
----
* {{Autocannibalism}}: An early upgrade will cause him to "bleed" candy when hit. Candy that he can then eat to regain a small portion of health back.

* EdibleBludgeon: He fights with a giant lollipop, and in an IdleAnimation will even start absently chewing on it.
%%* HeelFaceTurn: In ''Imaginators''.

* {{Leitmotif}}: The fast and peppy ''Chasing Tails'' by Gangpol & Mit , a unique song in that it is named, was created by an a third party artist and is buyable on iTunes.

%%* SquishyWizard
!! Fisticuffs
-> Voiced by: Creator/TravisWillingham
* AmbiguousAllegiance: While his appearance resembles an Evilikin, he is never stated to be one.

!! Blaster-Tron
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
Blaster-Tron isn't just state-of-the-art technology, he literally is from the future. When the Skylanders traveled forward in time to stop Wolfgang, they ended up bringing back the renegade robot with hopes that they could learn from his advanced circuitry. Eon immediately noticed that he had an actual "Good/Evil" switch that had been set to Evil. After flipping it to Good, Blaster-Tron was completely transformed. Besides going from bad robot to good robot, he ditched his blaster gun in exchange for a laser sword. No one knew exactly why, but as long as he was helping out the cause of justice, the Skylanders were happy. As a bonus, Master Eon noticed that his skill with the blade was second to none, and so he made Blaster-Tron a Sensei for the Knight Class, where he now gives 110% to training his students - which is technically possible because in the future, we figure out how to give more than 100%.
----

* {{Leitmotif}}: A techno-dubstep theme, predictably. For some reason, he gets a ''different'' techno-dubstep theme in ''Imaginators''.

!! Tae Kwon Crow
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
Formerly known as the Great Hawkmongous, Tae Kwon Crow was once the leader of a villainous band of air pirates in Skyhighlands. But pirating was never his true passion. All that really mattered to him was stopping anyone that “dared” to do anything that he deemed out of character. If a cake maker “dared” to make a pie instead, he would put a stop to it. If an ordinary sheep “dared” to baaahh longer than normal, he would end that nonsense right then and there. Tae Kwon Crow could not even stand it when anyone even “dared” of thinking of daring to do anything. But after he was captured by the Trap Masters, Master Eon dared him to change his ways and use his abilities for good instead. At first, Tae Kwon Crow was angry that Eon would dare make such a bold suggestion, but he soon realized that he could actually serve as a role model to young Ninjas and help them avoid the dark path that he went down. Forsaking his katana for the more traditional roundhouse fire-kick, Tae Kwon Crow now defends Skylands from whoever dares threaten it.
----

!! Grave Clobber
-> Voiced by: Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson (''Trap Team'')
Grave Clobber was once a great pharaoh who ruled the Golden Desert long ago. That was until his seven jealous brothers buried him in an underwater tomb while he was sleeping. But the remaining brothers still fought among themselves, and their infighting ultimately led to their kingdom falling apart and the family name being lost forever... almost. Because Grave Clobber eventually rose from his watery grave, and when he discovered what his brothers had done to their kingdom, he hunted each of them down and clobbered them. This was how he came to the attention of the Golden Queen, who now ruled the desert herself. She recruited Grave Clobber into her gang of Doom Raiders, but when the Skylanders defeated them once and for all, Master Eon thought that perhaps there was more to this mummy than meets the eye. He gave the old pharaoh a chance for redemption, and since nobody clobbered better than Grave Clobber, he was the perfect choice to be a Sensei trainer for the Brawler Class.

!! Bad Juju
-> Voiced by: Creator/KimberlyBrooks
Just like her name suggests, Bad Juju had always been bad. From her humble beginnings as a witch doctor, where she put curses on her patients instead of curing them, to being the Golden Queen's right-hand sorcerer, she had spent her entire life as a villain. Being captured by the Skylanders didn't do much to change her attitude either. At least, that was the case until the day she conjured up more then she bargained for - a son named Juju Junior. That was when she finally decided it was time to come to change her lifestyle. She didn't want to raise Juju Junior inside a prison thinking that his magical mother was a criminal. So she asked Master Eon to give her a chance to be a hero instead. As luck would have it, Eon was looking for a Swashbuckler Sensei who could help train Imaginators the value of being good. Not bad for Bad Juju.

%%* FinalBoss: Of ''[=SuperChargers=]''.
* GodOfDarkness: The Darkness is an EldritchAbomination serving as an EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity backing the [[EvilSorceror Dark Portal Master]] Kaos. In the first game, it plays a major role as the [[YinYangClash counterpart]] to the Core of Light, the congregation of Skylands' elements that kept it at bay until Kaos blew it up and let the Darkness take over the land, with the player encountering many spawns of the Darkness over the course of the game as enemies. It had a sparingly few mentions in later games, with ''Swap Force'' featuring [[PowerCrystal Petrified Darkness]] that transformed enemies into stronger and more evil versions of themselves and supplementary materials for ''Trap Team'' stating that the Darkness and [[CastingAShadow the Dark Element]] were one and the same until ''[=SuperChargers=]'' where it [[spoiler:reveals itself as [[ItCanThink a living being and an actively malevolent force]] by backstabbing Kaos and usurping him as the FinalBoss]].

* TheGoomba: It's kind are always the first enemies faced by the Skylanders, as well as their easiest, up to the point that Giants can kill them by just walking into them.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A rather unfocused, but bouncy ragtime piece.
%%* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Its trademark weapons of choice.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Which can be said about other {{Elite Mook|s}} player characters as well.
* OffModel: In ''Swap Force'' and in the 3DS version of ''Trap Team'', the Chompies have bigger eyes and smaller bodies.

* StarterVillain: It's the first villain you can trap, though Sheep Creep comes soon after to demonstrate how to trap villains.
* TheUnintelligible: Can only make growls, clicks, and other guttural noises.
* ZergRush: The species attack strategy in general, considering their weak stature, it's obvious how well it works for them.

* KillerRabbit: It has two rocket launchers or gatling guns hidden in its fur.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A lively hillbilly banjo jam that sounds like a one sided "dueling banjos" piece.

%%* HelicopterBlender: One of its attacks.

%%* DegradedBoss
%%* DumbMuscle
* {{Leitmotif}}: A bongo heavy theme.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Slobber Trap admits he never was a member of the Doom Raiders. He said he didn't trust their scent.
* NonIndicativeName: Slobber Trap has no attacks related to trapping opponents. He also has a Non-Indicative ''appearance'' looking like an animalistic creature made of dirt with grass and a flower growing out of it, yet is not an Earth or Life character. He's a [[MakingASplash Water-oriented character]].
!! Bruiser Cruiser
-> Voiced by: Creator/MitchellWhitfield

* GoodOldFisticuffs: His mech has two giant boxing gloves that he punches with.
* {{Leitmotif}}: An appropriately slightly sinister hip-hop sport theme with some light electric guitar thrown in.
%%* MiniMecha
* MotionCaptureMecha: Seems this is how the troll manages to control his vehicle.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Alongside all the other playable troll characters.
* NominalImportance: Due to him operating a Bruiser Cruiser mech, the troll character is just titled "Bruiser Cruiser" and is never named.
!! Broccoli Guy
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
%%* AmbiguouslyGay
* ClearMyName: He claims to have been framed before the fight starts.
%%* BareYourMidriff: Which is strange, to say the least.
* FlunkyBoss: Since there isn't much he can do fighting-wise, he relies on two Slobber Traps to attack you. After they're beaten he more or less becomes a GetBackHereBoss.
%%* FunnyAfro: Made out of a broccoli bushel.
* StaffChick: He isn't too handy in a fight, but he's ''very'' useful as a healer.
%%* TheMedic: A rare villainous version.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A laid-back synth piece that wouldn't sound too out of place in, say, a healthy eating ad.
* PaletteSwap: He has a different version called Steamed Broccoli Guy.
%%* ThirdPersonPerson
!! Shrednaught
%%* ChainsawGood: Well, not pre-HeelFaceTurn in any case.
* TankGoodness: Though unlike most, this tank is more suited for closer-combat than long range.
* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Against their own troll bretheren when recruited.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A moderately-intense heavy metal tune.
* NominalImportance: While the trolls do have names ([[YouAreNumber6 or at least numbers]]), the announcer and characters just call them collectively "Shrednaught" due to them operating a Shrednaught mech.
* SteamPunk: Like most troll vehicles, the two trolls' tank appears to be built like a steam train of sorts.
* YouAreNumber6: The crews names are Troll One and Troll Two.
!! Chill Bill
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Unlike all of the other trolls, who are green, he is blue.
* AnIcePerson: Unlike the other trolls, [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation he is blue]], and he uses a freeze gun as his attack.
* BeingEvilSucks: Not in ''Trap Team'', but as a retired bad guy in ''Imaginators''. Him and Broccoli Guy come to the realization that they were crazy to try and fight such a tough opponent as the skylanders during the arena commentary.
* ForTheEvulz: His introductory cutscene is him freezing birds until he notices you.
* OurTrollsAreDifferent: A blue one obsessed with freezing things with an ice gun.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Befitting his former occupation as a Troll Radio DJ, it's a cool jazz beat. It's also worth noting that his theme has been used in various commercials as well, such as for UsefulNotes/McDonalds Monopoly ads.
!! Trolling Thunder
%%* EliteMooks
* HeelFaceTurn: Considering the nature of the game, it's not surprising. What sets him apart however is the fact that he {{lampshade|Hanging}}s DefeatMeansFriendship/[[DefeatMeansPlayable Playable]], and states his reasons for doing so.
%%* TankGoodness: Depends on who's side he's on anyway.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: It's hard to tell which. Nevertheless, he lightly {{lampshade|Hanging}}s it.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Marching tunes seem to be a theme among playable trolls.
* LargeAndInCharge: well when he's in his MiniMecha anyway, he's the largest playable villain, and is an {{Elite Mook|s}} of the Doom Raiders.
* NominalImportance: Due to him operating a Trolling Thunder mech, the troll character is just titled "Trolling Thunder" and is never named.
!! Cuckoo Clocker
-> Voiced by: Creator/FredTatasciore
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: His attacks are probably some of the least impressive performance-wise (a ground-pound with both his fists that takes a second to perform), but makes up for it with the power backing it. More specifically, a fully charged critical hit from his enhanced form will deal around 2000 damage, letting him one-shot any non-boss enemy ''in the game''.
* TheDragon: Possibly to Chef Pepper Jack, as he was present during Clocker's fight and referred to the behemoth as, "my secret ingredient".
%%* FeatheredFiend
* {{Leitmotif}}: A tribal drum piece with lots of auxiliary backing it.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Not fighting-wise, but if his intro is any indication, he behaves a lot like a wrestler from WWE.

%%* {{Pirate}}
!! Masker Mind
-> Voiced by: Creator/TomKenny
%%* {{Brainwashed}}: His shtick.
* DemonicPossession: Signified by his mask on his victim's face. Best shown in his intro, where he takes over a defeated Bomb Shell.
* FlunkyBoss: When his host is beaten, he runs about and some Pirate Chompies hop onto the field.
* TheHyena: Laughs a lot, even when he crash lands in his prison.
* HypocriticalHumor: As he's being caught, he whines about how you aren't supposed to be using magic to beat him, not remembering that he uses magic even more.
%%* HypnoTrinket: His mask.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A grand orchestral sting and horn piece that would not be out of place in Film/HarryPotter.
* MindProbe: Can read minds along with his possessing abilities, which he reveals after his capture.
%%* PerpetualSmiler
%%* PunnyName: A combo of "mask" and "mastermind".
%%* SignatureLaugh: "Ah ho ho ho ho!"
* SquishyWizard: Due to relying on brainwashing his enemy, there isn't much he can do after his host has been beaten aside from running about.
* StockAnimalBehavior: Looks like a fly or insect, and flies about like one in the Trap field, bumping repeatedly into the sides.
%%* VillainOverride: How he's introduced.

* ExtremeOmnivore: He really likes to eat treasure, some of the things you can get from beating him senseless include bracelets, necklaces, gold teeth, candle holders, and heart-shaped lockets. It's a wonder he never tried to eat the Golden Queen.
%%* TheHyena: He really cracks up as he attacks.
* LargeHam: "Does your cafeteria here serve TREASURE!?! Just asking!"
* {{Leitmotif}}: A bouncy pirate-like piece with accordion, tuba, and flute parts
* ManBitesMan: Since he's not much besides a maw supported by a treasure chest, this is his main method of attack.
* MoneySpider: His fight is useful for gathering money, as each hit knocks treasure out of him.

!! Hood Sickle
-> Voiced by: Creator/JBBlanc
At first glance, it’s easy to be frightened by Hood Sickle. Some say it’s his imposing stature that freaks them out. Others are unnerved by his menacing hood. But most just try to stay away from his long, sharp scythe-- and it didn’t help that he had a bad habit of disappearing and then suddenly popping up behind unsuspecting people. In fact, the Trap Masters that locked him away in Cloudcracker Prison hoped they would never have to see him again. But Master Eon thought there might be a chance for Hood Sickle to change his ways. Everyone said Eon was crazy, but after spending time with the mysterious creep, Eon learned that Hood Sickle was actually not a bad guy-- just really super spooky. Hood Sickle took his job of terrifying others very seriously, and Eon believed that perhaps he could bring a similar dedication to teaching others as a Sensei. Plus, he figured that Skylanders in training would certainly pay attention in his classes. This has all proven true, and Hood Sickle now teaches Sentinel Imaginators, who definitely hang on his every word. Or else.

!! Pain-Yatta
-> Voiced by: Kevin Schon
Growing up, Pain-Yatta's best friend was the legendary Unocorn, a unicorn with a churro-horn that sprinkles magical cinnamon from time to time. While the cinnamon donuts for breakfast were incredible, being so sweet and delicious made them both easy targets for those looking for yummy treats. But Pain-Yatta had no problem protecting the both of them with his giant sucker! One day, however, the Unocorn went missing, and Pain-Yatta was beside himself. He tried desperately to find his buddy, but to no avail. That's when the Doom Raiders tricked him into thinking that the Skylanders were behind it all, and Pain-Yatta fell for it hook, line and sinker. He joined up with the band of villains and ventured out to get revenge on the Skylanders, but was eventually captured by the Trap Masters. Master Eon explained that the Skylanders had nothing to do with the Unocorn's disappearance and said he would help Pain-Yatta find his friend, if he became a Skylander Sensei and trained new Imaginators in the ways of smashing! Pain-Yatta agreed and the search for the missing Unocorn continues.

!! Blaster-Tron
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
Blaster-Tron isn't just state-of-the-art technology, he literally is from the future. When the Skylanders traveled forward in time to stop Wolfgang, they ended up bringing back the renegade robot with hopes that they could learn from his advanced circuitry. Eon immediately noticed that he had an actual "Good/Evil" switch that had been set to Evil. After flipping it to Good, Blaster-Tron was completely transformed. Besides going from bad robot to good robot, he ditched his blaster gun in exchange for a laser sword. No one knew exactly why, but as long as he was helping out the cause of justice, the Skylanders were happy. As a bonus, Master Eon noticed that his skill with the blade was second to none, and so he made Blaster-Tron a Sensei for the Knight Class, where he now gives 110% to training his students - which is technically possible because in the future, we figure out how to give more than 100%.

!! Tae Kwon Crow
-> Voiced by: Alex Ness
Formerly known as the Great Hawkmongous, Tae Kwon Crow was once the leader of a villainous band of air pirates in Skyhighlands. But pirating was never his true passion. All that really mattered to him was stopping anyone that “dared” to do anything that he deemed out of character. If a cake maker “dared” to make a pie instead, he would put a stop to it. If an ordinary sheep “dared” to baaahh longer than normal, he would end that nonsense right then and there. Tae Kwon Crow could not even stand it when anyone even “dared” of thinking of daring to do anything. But after he was captured by the Trap Masters, Master Eon dared him to change his ways and use his abilities for good instead. At first, Tae Kwon Crow was angry that Eon would dare make such a bold suggestion, but he soon realized that he could actually serve as a role model to young Ninjas and help them avoid the dark path that he went down. Forsaking his katana for the more traditional roundhouse fire-kick, Tae Kwon Crow now defends Skylands from whoever dares threaten it.

!! Grave Clobber
-> Voiced by: Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson (''Trap Team'')
Grave Clobber was once a great pharaoh who ruled the Golden Desert long ago. That was until his seven jealous brothers buried him in an underwater tomb while he was sleeping. But the remaining brothers still fought among themselves, and their infighting ultimately led to their kingdom falling apart and the family name being lost forever... almost. Because Grave Clobber eventually rose from his watery grave, and when he discovered what his brothers had done to their kingdom, he hunted each of them down and clobbered them. This was how he came to the attention of the Golden Queen, who now ruled the desert herself. She recruited Grave Clobber into her gang of Doom Raiders, but when the Skylanders defeated them once and for all, Master Eon thought that perhaps there was more to this mummy than meets the eye. He gave the old pharaoh a chance for redemption, and since nobody clobbered better than Grave Clobber, he was the perfect choice to be a Sensei trainer for the Brawler Class.

!! Bad Juju
-> Voiced by: Creator/KimberlyBrooks
Just like her name suggests, Bad Juju had always been bad. From her humble beginnings as a witch doctor, where she put curses on her patients instead of curing them, to being the Golden Queen's right-hand sorcerer, she had spent her entire life as a villain. Being captured by the Skylanders didn't do much to change her attitude either. At least, that was the case until the day she conjured up more then she bargained for - a son named Juju Junior. That was when she finally decided it was time to come to change her lifestyle. She didn't want to raise Juju Junior inside a prison thinking that his magical mother was a criminal. So she asked Master Eon to give her a chance to be a hero instead. As luck would have it, Eon was looking for a Swashbuckler Sensei who could help train Imaginators the value of being good. Not bad for Bad Juju.

The host of the Skylands Speedway, the Ridepocalypse Demo Derby, and other racing events. In ''[=SuperChargers=] Racing'', he oversees the Racelandia racing event, promising first place the grand prize: the Snow Globe of Destiny, a magical orb that grants one wish.
----
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Sharpfin describes him as one of his less upstanding associates from his old days [[spoiler:and he was not happy to hear about how he put Glumshanks up as the prize for the Drivepocalypse event]].
* FriendlyEnemy: To a degree. For the most part, he is a neutral supporting character who hosts the racing portion of ''[=SuperChargers=]'' and gives out rewards to those who pass his challenges, but he is an opportunist [[spoiler:which leads him to capture Glumshanks after his apparent HeroicSacrifice and put him up as the grand prize of the Ridepocalypse for opportunistic villainous factions]].
