[[WMG: Merlock will be the BigBad of Season 2, which will loosely adapt "Treasure of the Lost Lamp."]]
The SDCC demo showed character art for an updated version of [[spoiler:Dijon]]. The trailer for Season 2 that was exclusively shown at SDCC also showed [[spoiler:a clip that looks like it's from a straight up remake of the episode "Masters of the Djinni" from the original series, with Scrooge and Glomgold climbing on top a stone pillar and fighting over a magic lamp. Elements from "Masters of the Djinni" and "Treasure of the Lost Lamp" will be combined into one: Scrooge and Glomgold are fighting over the magic lamp, except it will contain the Genie[=/=]"Gene" from the film, as opposed to the JackassGenie from that episode. Them awakening him will lead to Merlock's appearance down the line as he tries to obtain the lamp.]]
* And if the lamp plays a big part in Season 2, then one of the main reasons the family is searching for it is likely [[spoiler:to use its power to locate or wish back Della from outer space, since conventional means of finding her have been a bust.]]
* A cool idea, but I have a hard time believing that they'd have another evil sorcerer with another reluctant minion right after Magica's debut. More likely, the lamp will either be used in a plot unrelated to Merlock, or he will only become a problem in season 3 -- maybe allied with Magica at that point?
* The clip with Scrooge and Glomgold climbing a pillar and fighting over the lamp was used in "The Ballad of Duke Baloney!", as part of a montage about Glomgold trying to best Scrooge in everything. It is unknown whether it will actually be used as a plot point.
* The episode "Treasure of the Found Lamp!" contains many {{Mythology Gag}}s to both "Treasure of the Lost Lamp" and "Masters of the Djinni", and prominently features the Lamp of the Genie as a MacGuffin, but there is no mention of Merlock in the episode. [[spoiler:The new version of Dijon, renamed Djinn, goes through a great amount of AdaptationalHeroism and is unlikely to ever team up with an EvilSorcerer.]]
* Officially jossed. Merlock made no appearances in season 2. However, a season 3 appearance has not been ruled out, since an updated version of Gene the genie is set to appear for real then.
[[WMG: There will be a YetAnotherChristmasCarol episode in Season 2.]]
The SDCC demo showed three characters that appear to be this show's versions of the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future: a small green firefly, a chubby pig dressed in a leaf crown and a green fur coat, and a gigantic GrimReaper figure. Scrooge, of course, will play the role of [[TheDanza Ebenezer Scrooge]]. The episode will also explore the often-teased NoodleIncident between Santa and Scrooge.
* Partly confirmed; the episode "Last Christmas!" features the three ghosts.
* Jossed for Scrooge playing the part of Ebenezer Scrooge. Instead, it's explained that the Ghosts accidentally met Scrooge [=McDuck=] while looking for the other Scrooge.
* Also Jossed for Scrooge's passionate hatred for Santa, which is referenced multiple times for the episode, but never elaborated.
[[WMG: Season 2 will end with Louie taking over both Glomgold's and Scrooge's companies, much to everyone's dismay]]
Because of the bet, Louie ends up being the richest duck in the world, even if it is just by one cent. It will go to Louie's head but eventually he will realize that he does not like what he is becoming. He ends up giving everything back to Scrooge in what will be one of the most heartwarming moments in the show.
** Confirmed!
[[WMG: There will be a TimeTravel episode where Scrooge, Goldie, Gyro and Fenton end up in the Old West.]]
The SDCC demo showed pictures of Scrooge, Goldie and Fenton in Old West clothing along with Gyro in his regular outfit, along with a SteamPunk Gizmoduck suit and John D. Rockerduck also in Old West clothing. The story will be Gyro building a time machine that ends up transporting him, Fenton, Scrooge and Goldie back to a town in the Old West ruled by the corrupt businessman Rockerduck, and Gyro and Fenton build a steampunk Gizmosuit to defeat Rockerduck.
* Alternatively, only Gyro and Fenton get transported back in time, and team up with a young Scrooge and Goldie against Rockerduck (which is possible if the episode takes place at the end of the 1800s).
* Half-confirmed, half-jossed. [[spoiler:Only Gyro uses TimeTravel. The duck looking like Fenton is Sheriff Marshall Cabrera, the [[IdenticalGrandson identical grandfather]] of Fenton.]]
[[WMG: John D. Rockerduck will be part of the extended family.]]
John D. Rockerduck will have no familial ties to Scrooge [=McDuck=] in his first appearance in the time travel Old West episode, but when Gyro and Fenton come back and mention him, Scrooge and Donald will quickly tell them to be quiet and not to mention his name to the boys, as Rockerduck is a relative of their dad.
[[WMG:Rockerduck will be referred to by [[LastNameBasis his last name]].]]
Related to the two above theories, Gyro and Fenton travel back to the Gold Rush and be antagonized by Rockerduck. The latter will only be known by his last name to preserve the mystery of ''which'' Rockerduck he is, because one of them is [[RelatedInTheAdaptation part of the Duck extended family]]. He might be John, John's (grand-)father Howard, or a new ancestor altogether.
* Jossed, he's explicitly referred to as John D. Rockerduck.
[[WMG:The whole family will have to relocate to Donald's houseboat after the events of the Season 1 finale]]
The trailer for the rest of Season 1 shows both the mansion and the Money Bin getting [[TrashTheSet demolished]] as Magica wrecks havoc. Until both are fixed, they have to relocate to the houseboat. It also would serve as a BookEnd to the premiere where Donald had to move to the mansion after the boat was destroyed until it was fixed. The SDCC trailer for Season 2 also showed [[spoiler:Scrooge on Donald's boat excitedly bursting out of the windows, which supports this.]]
* Jossed. The manor's all fixed up by the start of season 2.
[[WMG: Season 2 will involve TimeTravel]]
Specifically, it will be used to save Della Duck. The show runners said, "They solved a mystery, now history is repeating itself. So the question is: can the Duck family rewrite history?"
While in the context of the article it's talking about the fallout of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser", it could also be a clue as to the next arc.
* The SDCC 2018 promotional pictures showed Bubba the Caveduck and some of the characters in Old West outfits (including a steampunk Gizmoduck suit), supporting this theory.
* TimeTravel is featured in "Last Christmas!", [[spoiler: with the Ghost of Christmas Past taking Scrooge and Dewey back to the past. Dewey meets Della and attempts to tell her about the Spear of Selene, but she shoots it down to avoid a TemporalParadox.]]
* There is also TimeTravel in "The Outlaw Scrooge [=McDuck=]!"
* The SDCCC 2019 trailer reveals Gyro's time tub (and it being stolen) will be part of another episode - possibly the one introducing Bubba and Tootsie.
** Confirmed. In "Timephoon!", Louie steals the time tub and accidentally transports Bubba and Tootsie to the present day.
[[WMG:At least one episode of Season 2 will involve...]]
[[spoiler:Webby discovering Lena isn't gone after all, and trying to restore her to a flesh-and-blood body.]]
* [[spoiler: Confirmed. In "Friendship Hates Magic", Webby successfully resurrects Lena.]]
[[WMG:The magpie girl from the SDCC promotional pictures knows witchcraft and will help Webby restore Lena.]]
Magpies are often associated with gypsies (due to their dark feathers and the ThievingMagpie stereotype) and fictional gypsies often know witchcraft. The promotional picture shows her next to Webby and Lena, implying some kind of connection to them. Perhaps the magpie girl will sense Lena's spirit around Webby and together they summon her, and the three will form some kind of PowerTrio.
* The creators probably don't want to associate a character with racist stereotypes, even that obscurely...
* WordOfGod revealed that she's a hummingbird (specifically, a [[SeldomSeenSpecies violet sabrewing]]), not a magpie.
* [[spoiler:She's neither a magpie nor a gypsy, but she is into magic and occultism and helps Webby restore Lena, so the rest of the speculation is Confirmed.]]
[[WMG:Magica ran away to her brother Poe, and will work with him in season 2]]
After loosing most, or all, of her magic in the season one finale, Magica will need an ally to continue antagonizing Scrooge. The sorceress will believe she is entitled to essentially freeload on her estranged brother Poe, who lacks his sister's commitment to the [=DeSpell=]-[=McDuck=] feud and ambitions of world conquest. Nonetheless, he will lend her a hand in regaining her power to get Magica back on her feet and out of his home.
* Jossed. Poe makes no appearances in season 2, and Magica's stuck working as a party entertainer.
[[WMG: Poe and Minima will show up as Magica's new 'minions']]
Sort of similar to the above theory but more my own version of it. I think Magica will attempt to recruit Poe and Minima as her new 'minions' to replace Lena. But due to not having any leverage or magic to use over them she will struggle to get them to do anything. Perhaps they could just act tired of Magica's nonsense. And they will only really be helping her because they are family and/or like in the above WMG, in order to get her out of their house.
[[WMG: Webby's new friend who was revealed at SDCC 2018 will be related to Mark Beaks.]]
I have seen this theory has been posted around before on reddit and I personally believe it but I have not seen it here so I thought I might as well put it here. The theory is that the girl shown standing with Webby and Lena in the SDCC reel will be related to Mark Beaks. Since she does look like Mark Beaks and it will also be kind of amusing if Webby keeps befriending the family of antagonists. She could possibly be Mark Beak's sister or cousin or niece etc.
Also if she does turn out to be related to Mark Beaks I think it would be interesting if they actually have a good relationship and if she is working with him then she is doing so willingly to contrast with Magica's and Lena's relationship.
* Jossed, Violet Sabrewing has nothing to do with Mark Beaks.
[[WMG: The BigBad of season two will be]]
The main villain of season two will be:
* Magica [=DeSpell=]
* Flintheart Glomgold
** By the look of it Flintheart Glomgold, is the BigBad, since he and Scrooge made the bet which will be one of the season two arcs.
* A Duck version of [[Franchise/{{Mortal Kombat}}]]'s Shang Tsung, since Disney referenced Mortal Kombat twice.
* Double RuleOfCool points if Patric Seitz (who voices Scorpion) or Andrew Kishino voices him, although we already had Magica.
* John D. Rockerduck
* Merlock
* Ma Beagle
* Blackheart Beagle
* Negaduck II
* Blackarts Beagle
* Steelbeak
* Black Heron
* Don Karnage
* Megavolt
* Count Dracula Duck
* Mark Beaks
* Arpin Lusene, aka the Black Knight
* Taurus Bulba
* Pete
* A completely new character
** Ultimately, there is a BigBadEnsemble between Glomgold and a new character introduced in this version of Ducktales, [[spoiler:General Lunaris]].
** From the above characters, Magica, Beaks, Ma Beagle and Don Karnage join a LegionOfDoom led by Glomgold; meanwhile, TheStinger of "Moonvasion" shows [[spoiler:Rockerduck, Steelbeak and Black Heron as F.O.W.L. agents]]. Blackheart Beagle, or Grandpappy Beagle, makes a brief appearance in "Last Christmas", Megavolt appears as a ShowWithinAShow character in "The Duck Knight Returns", and in the same episode [[spoiler:Jim Starling turns into Negaduck]]. Taurus Bulba does not appear in Season 2 but is confirmed to appear in Season 3.
[[WMG:Selene is a ObliviouslyEvil BigBadFriend and will be the main villain of the season.]]
Selene lied to Dewey and Webby when she said she didn't know where Della was or what the Spear of Selene was. Della named the Spear after her and told her that it was meant to be a gift to her children. Fearing her best friend would stop adventuring after her children were born, Selene arranged the cosmic storm that caused the Spear to crash on the moon. Her magic hid Della from the search party and keeps her alive on the moon's surface.
* Jossed by "Whatever Happened To Della Duck?"
[[WMG: The purple girl shown in the SDCC reel is Minima De Spell]]
She and her father Poe De Spell are [[AdaptationalSpeciesChange now anthropomorphic ravens]] instead of ducks, which also means that Poe is now Magica's half-brother.
* WordOfGod revealed that she's a hummingbird (specifically, a [[SeldomSeenSpecies violet sabrewing]]), not a raven.
[[WMG:The Rockerduck seen in the SDCC promo art is not John.]]
It's ''Howard'' Rockerduck, Scrooge's rival from the Klondike. According to John's backstory in the comics, his father Howard started the Rockerduck family fortune during the Gold Rush, but was always regarded as second banana to Scrooge, whom Howard both resented and admired. To fit with the reboot's timeline, this Howard will be changed to John's great-grandfather. John will still have grown up hearing tales of Scrooge [=McDuck=], but the one sided [=McDuck=]-Rockerduck rivalry has lasted more than two generations so Scrooge and John's age difference from the comics (John is usually Donald's age) is carried over into the series.
* Jossed. He's explicitly referred to as John D. Rockerduck, who in this version is about as old as Scrooge.
[[WMG: The wager between Scrooge and Glomgold will be lost because of Della]]
Near the end of the time limit set by the wager Scrooge will have a chance to save Della but it will cost just enough to lose him the wager.
* Unlikely - she made it back on her own. And from the SDCC 2019 trailer, it looks like Glomgold's going to try and cheat his way into victory anyway by forming his LegionOfDoom.
* Jossed. Louie cheated him out of a fortune.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose the bet because of the IRS.]]
His missing poster in "The Ballad of Duke Baloney" says he's wanted for back taxes.
* Jossed, it was Louie that screwed him over.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose because of his cheating.]]
The money spent on his attempts to sabotage Scrooge will be more than the difference that'll make Scrooge the winner.
* Either confirmed or jossed depending on your point of view. Louie rules-lawyered him out of a fortune because he didn't sign his name in his partnership contract with him. So either he lost because of a minor dishonesty, or Louie cheated ''him'' [[{{Irony}} by]] [[RulesLawyer the book]].
[[WMG: The vultures will want to take advantage of the bet to take over [=McDuck=] Enterprises.]]
That Scrooge would agree to such a bet is something they'll use to declare him insane. They'll want to get Glomgold Industries' acting C.E.O. onto the plan out of hope she'll want to declare Glomgold insane and retain her power over his company. He was already considered insane before the bet anyway.
* Jossed. They made no visible power plays during the events of the bet. [[spoiler:It's not until ''afterward'' that they show their true colors.]]
[[WMG: Rockerduck is a parody of ''[[Series/TheDukesOfHazzard Boss Hogg]]''.]]
That's why promotional material portrays him wearing white.
* The two characters don't seem to have anything in common besides dress sense.
[[WMG: Glomgold will ''[[TheBadGuyWins win]]'' the bet against Scrooge.]]
In the penultimate episode of the season, creating a DarkestHour before the the season finale where the Duck family has to leave [=McDuck=] Manor, dirt-poor. But then in the final episode, Glomgold somehow gets HoistByHisOwnPetard and Scrooge gets his money and his mansion back, [[StatusQuoIsGod restoring the status quo]].
* And as Glomgold gloats and laughs in his new office, he stops laughing and it slowly dons on him, that now that he's become the Richest Duck in the World and finally got revenge on Scrooge for "shortchanging" him all those years ago, [[AndThenWhat he has nothing now.]]
* Jossed. Louie made sure of that.
[[WMG:Rockerduck will be the World's second richest duck.]]
When Rockerduck appears in the past he will be the world's second richest duck, this will be because Glomgold has not yet made his fortune. In the modern day Glomgold will of made his fortune becoming the new second richest duck in the world, bumping Rockerduck to the world's third richest duck. He'll show up in the present to reclaim the second richest title once whoever loses the bet (Scrooge or Glomgold) is no longer richer than him.
* Rockerduck's first appearance takes place in Scrooge's prospecting days, ''before'' he has become the world's richest duck, and he appears to be richer than Scrooge at that time.
[[WMG: How Season 2 will end, based on the above guesses]]
The mid-season finale will have the characters realize [[spoiler:Della]] is alive on the moon. Scrooge will organize a mission to rescue her... costing him the bet against Glomgold. The triplets and Donald will be forced to leave [=McDuck Manor=]. Their search for a new home leads them to some familiar faces in places like [[WesternAnimation/GoofTroop Spoonerville]] and [[WesternAnimation/TaleSpin Cape Suzette]]. Meanwhile, a guilt-ridden [[spoiler:Della]] will sink into a DespairEventHorizon, that is until Launchpad boosts her confidence and helps her family restore their faith in her. They eventually reunite to take back [=McDuck=] Enterprises and defeat Glomgold. After some long-awaited touching moments, Donald and [[spoiler:Della]] will decide to leave Duckburg to travel the world together on their boat [[note]][[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls sound familiar?]][[/note]], leaving the triplets in Scrooge's care. And then, as a SequelHook to season 3, Dewey will begin to look at the mystery of his father.
** At least the first point in this WMG is Jossed -- Della makes it back to Earth safe and sound in "The Golden Spear!" Now, '''DONALD''' is a different matter altogether...
** Fully jossed. The bet's over and done with by the time the family is fully together.
[[WMG: Della's reaction upon learning about the bet.]]
She'll comment that she thought Scrooge was "a businessman, not a gambler". It'll be a reference of the 1987 series episode where Glomgold challenged Scrooge to a bet where the loser gives a million dollars to the winner. Scrooge used those words to refuse but changed his mind when Glomgold proposed that the loser would invest a million dollars on the winner's company.
** Jossed. She doesn't seem to care.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose the bet because of lawyers' fees.]]
In "Storkules in Duckburg", there's a headline about Glomgold accidentally suing himself. He'll lose the bet because he'll have to pay fees to both sides of the case. He'll also be sued for shortchanging the "losing side's" lawyer.
* Jossed, it was Louie. Though, it's not out of the question for a kid like him to aspire to become a lawyer if his own business doesn't work out....
[[WMG: Guesses as to what was blocking Della's transmissions from getting through:]]
* The Vultures
** Evidence for: They're shady assholes who didn't want Della found because she was costing them money. Against: Scrooge almost went bankrupt ''because'' he was spending so much money trying to find Della, so stopping him from finding Della to save money doesn't make sense.
* The Moonlanders
** For: They're most definitely up to something, and have advanced enough technology to hide their entire moon city. Against: They didn't even know she was there, although they could have been blocking her signal unintentionally.
* Magica
** For: Magica' power seems to be related to the moon in some way, and Della started receiving transmissions from earth after she was released. Against: Della is having tech problems, not magic ones.
* Selene
** For: She's the goddess of the moon. Della is stuck on the moon. It seems logical she would know that Della was there, and yet she hasn't said anything. Against: Selene apparently doesn't know about the Moonlanders, so it's possible either she doesn't know everything that happens on the actual physical moon or whatever is hiding the Moonlanders from her also hid Della.
* The crash itself
** For: Sometimes the simplest explanation is the correct one, the crash damaged the transmission device and Della never noticed.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will invade Earth.]]
Shortly after Della leaves the moon, General Lunaris will die in the most Disney squeeze way possible. This will cause Lieutenant Penumbra to be promoted to the rank of general, and to blame Earth people for what happened, meaning there will be an invasion.
* Alternatively, Lunaris will be revealed as EvilAllAlong and will lead the invasion.
** [[spoiler:Confirmed! Lunaris was playing both Della and Penumbra the whole time to make Della look like a traitor and take the Spear of Selene's blueprints to build an armada.]]
[[WMG: Glomgold will find out about the Moon's [[spoiler:vast gold resources]].]]
And the greedy businessman he is, he'll try to conquer the Moon for it.
* Glomgold is crucial in the finale, but he doesn't seem to have any motivation except trying to [[EvilVersusOblivion save the world from freezing]] and [[spoiler:getting his company back]].
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will be the FinalBoss of Season 2...]]
While Glomgold will most likely (and ideally) continue to be the BigBad of this season via his and Scrooge's bet, the Moonlanders will be the last and ultimate threat of Season 2. They have the chops for such a role, being an alien race with highly advanced technology and, if [[FantasticRacism Penumbra]] and [[AmbiguouslyEvil Lunaris]] are any indication, aren't the most noble guys around. They also have Della, the central figure of the series' current MythArc, in their custody, and the reunion between her and the Duck family obviously isn't going to come so easily. And while they have no reason to be hostile to the main characters, given their hospitality to Della (even if for nefarious purposes), there is a good precedent for there to be violent conflict between them and the main cast via [[spoiler: their ''immense'' gold supply, which would be too tempting for a certain greedy Scottish duck in the midst of a serious deal, and had lost much of his wealth searching for Della]].
* The season finale is called "Moonvasion!", confirming the main idea of this speculation. [[spoiler:Lunaris uses Della's blueprints of the Spear of Selene to build an army of golden rockets to invade Earth.]]
* Confirmed.
[[WMG: Going with the above three theories...]]
[[spoiler: The Moonlanders' gold city ends up being destroyed, either accidentally by one of our heroes or by Glomgold attempting to take it for himself.]] The Moonlanders will then decide to retaliate by invading Earth and turning everyone into gold [[note]]sneaking in a little nod to [[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls Weirdmageddon]] where Mark Beaks [[TooDumbToLive attempts to take a selfie with one of the UFOs]] and gets turned into gold as a result[[/note]]. Della and her family will then work to defeat the Moonlanders, who in the end will either [[WeWillMeetAgain swear vengeance]] or [[HeelFaceTurn declare a truce]].
* Everything except Mark Beaks trying to take a selfie with the invaders is Jossed.
[[WMG: Alternatively...]]
The Moonlanders will initially serve antagonistic roles, but eventually do reform. Penumbra will get along with Della like what's been implied in their debut and they will help Della return to earth after she does them a grand gesture. Later on, the Moonlanders will aid the Duck family in their fight against the FinalBoss - be it Glomgold, Magica or an entirely new BigBad.
* Strongly suggested by Gibbous's reaction to Lunaris declaring he wants to destroy the Earth, but only Penumbra actually contributes to Earth's defense.
[[WMG: Scrooge will lose the bet]]
Only to be bailed out by Della arriving in a solid gold space ship.
* Jossed. Della was already back, and Scrooge lost to ''Louie''. Who eventually gave it all back.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will be the equivalents to the Skrulls, keeping with the similarities to Film/CaptainMarvel2019.]]
They initially appear antagonistic, before it's revealed they're up against an even bigger threat: [[ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures the Evronians.]]
* Jossed, though that would have been ''awesome''.
[[WMG: Fethry will meet Louie.]]
And it'll be revealed that, while he considers Huey and Dewey "Little Donalds", he considers Louie a "Little Gladstone".
* Jossed - when he meets Louie, he calls him "green kid".
[[WMG: The Moon Theme will have a TriumphantReprise.]]
Likely when Della and the boys are having some awesome climactic moment.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders, while invading Earth, will use one or more of the triplets to get Della to do what they want.]]
Likely even throwing Della's line, "Because a mother would do anything for the sake of her kids," [[IronicEcho back at her]].
* Jossed. They don't get the chance to threaten the triplets.
[[WMG: D'jinn is the Genie of the Lamp.]]
Regarding the AdaptationNameChange of Dijon to D'jinn, WordOfGod said it's a "minor spoiler". "D'jinn" looks almost like "djinni", which is an alternative spelling for "genie" - and also sounds similar to "Gene", which is the name of the genie from "Treasure of the Lost Lamp". Perhaps he is actually a CompositeCharacter of Dijon and Gene?
* Jossed. [[spoiler:He's actually the ''eighth-great grandson'' of the Genie of the Lamp.]]
[[WMG: Donald will be a pawn in the Moonlander's invasion plot]]
In "The Golden Spear!", [[spoiler:Della finally manages to return to Earth. Alas, Donald accidentally blasts himself into space, just as General Lunaris brings his people to wage war against the planet. Donald will presumably crash land on the moon, where he will held prisoner by the Moonlanders and be forced to help them assist in the invasion by building ships to Earth ''if he ever wants to see his family again.'' Worse still, unlike with Della's situation, there will be no search parties because everybody thinks he's out on a cruise.]]
* [[spoiler:Donald indeed becomes a prisoner of the Moonlanders. However, before they can use him for anything, Penumbra helps him escape, they find an old rocket that Lunaris built and Donald is launched back on Earth.]]
[[WMG: Donald will be [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashed]] by the Moonlanders into becoming Paperinik.]]
Continuing from the above speculation. After imprisoning him, the Moonlanders will do experiments on Donald, give him superpowers and turn him into a vengeful duck that helps them with their AlienInvasion. However, he'll be snapped out of his brainwashed state, do a HeelFaceTurn and help his family save the Earth from the invaders.
* Jossed. [[spoiler:He escaped with Penumbra's help, and finally reunites with the family in the finale when they land on the same deserted island as he did.]]
[[WMG: Goldie is secretly planning on playing a TricksterMentor gambit with Louie.]]
[[spoiler:Sure, she's at least partially agreeing to train him in her underhanded ways to [[TheGadfly get a rise out of Scrooge]]. But she also has just enough heart in her to realize Louie is "[[Recap/DuckTales2017S1E5TerrorOfTheTerrafirmians a good kid with a bright future]]" and not want the kid to fall down the path she fell down. She plans on teaching him but in ways that will ultimately get him to see the greater value in Scrooge's more honest ways.]]
* Not quite Jossed, but it is shown that she actually agreed so she could get into [=McDuck=] Manor to rob Louie, and ends up robbing him anyway. She does keep a photo booth picture of him in her wallet next to Scrooge's, though, so this could still happen in Season 3.
[[WMG:There will be an episode where Gizmoduck has a rivalry with Darkwing Duck]]
Gizmoduck is already known as the defender of Duckburg, but Darkwing thinks he's a better superhero than him, and they will have a rivalry over who is best suited to protect Duckburg.
* It will start with a series of crime sprees from a mysterious figure matching Darkwing's description. Gizmoduck assumes Darkwing is the perp, and in turn they become bitter rivals. Later on, however, they will find out [[spoiler: Negaduck]] was the true criminal and team up to stop him. Afterwards, the two heroes shake hands, confirming their alliance, before Darkwing decides to go fight crime in St. Canard. And then, a SequelHook is established when the imprisoned [[spoiler: Negaduck]] gets a surprise visit from Mark Beaks; teaming up with him in a plot against their respective arch-enemies.
* According to WordOfGod, Darkwing left for St. Canard, only coming back to help deal with the invasion in "Moonvasion!" He meets Gizmoduck and immediately dislikes him, but they don't fight; DW just growls at him.
[[WMG: Webby's trying to recreate [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGummiBears the gummibeary juice]] from the vial she took from Black Heron]]
This will become useful in a later episode.
[[WMG: Johnny from "Ottoman Empire" will become this show's version of Steelbeak]]
The behind-the-scenes drama between Johnny and Randy parallels the one between Jim Starling and Drake Mallard, and will result in Johnny (who, based on his bitter remarks about Randy, is very hurt by the drama) turning into a supervillain.
** Steelbeak and Johnny are both roosters with light-colored feathers and similar accents so it's definite possibility.
** Based on what we've seen in "The Outlaw Scrooge [=McDuck=]!", Johnny seems unable to handle the show on his own so it will most likely get cancelled. Blaming his brother for it, Johnny will attempt an act of revenge against Randy only for a freak accident to occur that leaves Johnny horribly disfigured and on the verge of death. Learning about the accident, FOWL will see an opportunity arise from this and abduct Johnny to give him a new metallic beak and subject him to brainwashing so that he becomes an obedient agent for them.
** Jossed. [[spoiler:Steelbeak already exists and was shown with the rest of F.O.W.L. while the brothers were on the news with the Ducks.]]
[[WMG: Bubba's debut will involve the kids and Scrooge helping him reunite with Tootsie the triceratops]]
During an archeological dig, our heroes will find Bubba and Tootsie frozen in ice and bring them back to Duckberg for scientific study, only for Tootsie to break free and escape into the city. Upon properly meeting Bubba and learning of his relationship with Tootsie, the kids agree to help the caveduck find his horned friend. Unfortunately, Tootsie's presence in Duckburg has not gone unnoticed by its citizens, specifically catching the eye of an EgomaniacHunter who seeks to hunt down Tootsie in hopes of selling her for a fortune.
** Jossed: Bubba debuts in "Timephoon!" and is accidentally brought to the present thanks to Louie mucking about with Gyro's time travel technology. And "Tootsie" is not Bubba's pet, but a regular triceratops brought to the present by the titular storm who Bubba briefly manages to ride.
[[WMG: Penumbra will help Donald escape]]
The Moonlanders will most likely figure out Donald is Della's brother and use him to gain information about her. While he is being imprisoned, Penumbra organizes a plot to sneak him out. They are initially cold and distrustful to one another until their relationship with Della gradually causes them to bond. The episode ends in either two ways: A) Penumbra's betrayal is discovered by the other Moonlanders and she hastily sends Donald on a ship back to Earth before she is apprehended and turned over to Lunaris. B) Donald makes his escape completely unnoticed, but little does he know that Penumbra has used information from him to aid in Lunaris' scheme. Penumbra, however, remains unsure of whether she did the right thing.
* Largely Confirmed. Penumbra helps Donald escape, Lunaris finds them and tries to stop them, but Donald manages to fly off in an old cannon-fired rocket built by Lunaris.
[[WMG: Penumbra will pull a HeelFaceTurn at the climax of the invasion plot]]
[[HeroicSacrifice Ultimately costing]] [[RedemptionEqualsDeath her life]]. This scene is made even more tragic as by this point she and Della were truly starting to bond. Once the day is saved, Della decides to honor "Penny" by returning to space to explore in a re-rebuilt Spear of Selene. Donald tags along with her and they promise to keep in touch with the rest of the family, making for a BittersweetEnding to the season.
* ALTERNATIVELY: She will bring the other Moonlanders to realize that Lunaris has driven them into his invasion plot using fear and deception. Once Lunaris is defeated, the rest of the Moonlanders will establish homes on Earth and experience what the planet is like. Judging by her appearance in the Season 3 poster, it seems Penumbra could be joining the cast.
* [[WordOfGod Frank Angones]] said that [[https://suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/187284373756/oh-by-the-way one of the "good guys"]], [[https://suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/187284478671/are-they-in-the-season-3-poster-even-though-they who is on the Season 3 poster]], will not survive into Season 3. This makes Penumbra a very likely candidate.
** Title guess confirmed; the rest is jossed. Penumbra, already good, shows up at the last minute and destroys the engines of Lunaris's ship, and is then brought back to Earth by the Ducks.
[[WMG: Glomgold will be betrayed by his LegionOfDoom.]]
Likely due to his incompetence and needlessly convoluted schemes.
** Jossed. They just abandoned him when they found he was planning to betray ''them''.
[[WMG: The heroes and villains will have a big battle, until the finale creates a dramatic turn of events which forces them into an EnemyMine]]
Of course I'm referring to the moon invasion. All the villains will ultimately decide to team up with their rivals to save their home from annihilation. Unfortunately, they are all later stabbed in the back by Glomgold, who [[RevengeBeforeReason ends up siding with Lunaris in hopes of finally destroying Scrooge]]. It massively blows up in his face when Glomgold is not only betrayed back by his former LegionOfDoom, but by the aliens as well.
** Subverted. "[=GlomTales=]!" was just over a week before the events of "Moonvasion!", and Glomgold is the only one of the villain group who gets involved in stopping the invasion; Lunaris is as much an enemy to him as Scrooge is.
[[WMG: The Season 2 finale will plot wise be the inverse of season 1]]
In season 1, Scrooge's family needed to come together to save him from a great enemy. In this finale, Scrooge will need to gather all the employees and associates of his family to save them from [[spoiler: the moon men]].
* Confirmed.
[[WMG: Selene will be involved in the final episodes of the season.]]
While she's not shown in the trailer, she'll show up at some point anyway during the Moonlander invasion of Earth, and will be ''ticked'' at them. (She'll also be very glad to find out Della's back.)
** Confirmed as being involved - and while she's not mad, she ''does'' play a role in Lunaris's final defeat.
[[WMG: Don Karnage will pull a HeelFaceTurn before season 2 is out.]]
On the promo poster for seasons 2 and 3, all but one of its characters are either heroic or jerkish but good-leaning. The one exception is Don Karnage... why would they include him as a lone villain over any of the major antagonists?
* Well, the poster also has [[JerkassGods Zeus]] and [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Goldie]], who are technically antagonistic characters, but they fit into the "jerkish but good-leaning" box and neither of them is a villain the same way Don Karnage is.
* One possible way of this going down: he doesn't find his place in Glomgold's LegionOfDoom, and is [[EvenEvilHasStandards is horrified how far his teammates can go]] when it comes to villainy. Because of this, he turns against his teammates and helps Scrooge and his friends to defeat the other villains.
** Jossed for season 2, but a HeelFaceTurn in season 3 is still possible.
[[WMG: The little African Grey Parrot seen in the promo poster for seasons 2 and 3 is a robot]]
Expanding on this theory, he was created by Mark Beaks and given the name [[Manga/AstroBoy AstroBeaks]]. His initial purpose was to be Mark's successor, but over time he will be reform into essentially a better version of his creator. He will also debut in "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!" as strongly indicated by one of the promos.
* Him being a robot by Mark Beaks and debuting in "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!" is confirmed. However, his name is Beaks' Optimistic Young Droid, or Boyd for short, and he was built by Beaks to attract attention, because apparently father-son photos are trending.
[[WMG: Who dies in the season 2 finale?]]
Penumbra has already been discussed as a likely candidate. But the other...
* Pre-existing characters are probably off-limits for death, but Della is the most likely candidate. And then everyone watching will be ''furious''.
* One possibility: Johnny or Randy Empire from "Ottoman Empire" - the trailer from SDCC 2019 shows them in working with the Ducks in a scene likely from the finale.
** And now we know: it's one of the Little Bulb duplicates, a couple of Gyro's clones, and the Mickey watermelon. TrollingCreator much?
[[WMG: Unless...]]
[[AmbigiousCloneEnding The original Gyro really was killed off]] as he and the clones can't tell each other apart.
[[WMG: Louie's decision after the cliffhanger from "[=GlomTales!=]"]]
He'll give his newly-earned riches to Scrooge, but only if Della takes him to wherever the heck [[NoodleIncident the family was going to while he was grounded.]] That, or he'll give Scrooge's fortune back while keeping everything else for himself.
** Nope, he kept it until he learned better, and then handed it all over to Scrooge.
[[WMG: The thing that will make everyone furious is Della and Donald's reunion will be drawn out even more]]
In "Whatever Happened to Donald Duck!", Donald flew back to Earth and crash-landed in an unknown location. Pretty much like an an inverse of the season 1 finale, this season's finale will reveal Donald stranded on an island. He receives the news that Della is back in Duckburg and desperately begins a quest to get back there himself.
* Even more infuriating? Something happens to Della at the end of the finale (hopefully not killed off, but maybe kidnapped or she goes on a solo adventure) and Donald returns ''just minutes later''. Either way, the two won't see each other again until mid-season three.
** Jossed, according to Frank the moment that would frustrate people was Bubba being the first [=McDuck=].
The SDCC demo showed character art for an updated version of [[spoiler:Dijon]]. The trailer for Season 2 that was exclusively shown at SDCC also showed [[spoiler:a clip that looks like it's from a straight up remake of the episode "Masters of the Djinni" from the original series, with Scrooge and Glomgold climbing on top a stone pillar and fighting over a magic lamp. Elements from "Masters of the Djinni" and "Treasure of the Lost Lamp" will be combined into one: Scrooge and Glomgold are fighting over the magic lamp, except it will contain the Genie[=/=]"Gene" from the film, as opposed to the JackassGenie from that episode. Them awakening him will lead to Merlock's appearance down the line as he tries to obtain the lamp.]]
* And if the lamp plays a big part in Season 2, then one of the main reasons the family is searching for it is likely [[spoiler:to use its power to locate or wish back Della from outer space, since conventional means of finding her have been a bust.]]
* A cool idea, but I have a hard time believing that they'd have another evil sorcerer with another reluctant minion right after Magica's debut. More likely, the lamp will either be used in a plot unrelated to Merlock, or he will only become a problem in season 3 -- maybe allied with Magica at that point?
* The clip with Scrooge and Glomgold climbing a pillar and fighting over the lamp was used in "The Ballad of Duke Baloney!", as part of a montage about Glomgold trying to best Scrooge in everything. It is unknown whether it will actually be used as a plot point.
* The episode "Treasure of the Found Lamp!" contains many {{Mythology Gag}}s to both "Treasure of the Lost Lamp" and "Masters of the Djinni", and prominently features the Lamp of the Genie as a MacGuffin, but there is no mention of Merlock in the episode. [[spoiler:The new version of Dijon, renamed Djinn, goes through a great amount of AdaptationalHeroism and is unlikely to ever team up with an EvilSorcerer.]]
* Officially jossed. Merlock made no appearances in season 2. However, a season 3 appearance has not been ruled out, since an updated version of Gene the genie is set to appear for real then.
[[WMG: There will be a YetAnotherChristmasCarol episode in Season 2.]]
The SDCC demo showed three characters that appear to be this show's versions of the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future: a small green firefly, a chubby pig dressed in a leaf crown and a green fur coat, and a gigantic GrimReaper figure. Scrooge, of course, will play the role of [[TheDanza Ebenezer Scrooge]]. The episode will also explore the often-teased NoodleIncident between Santa and Scrooge.
* Partly confirmed; the episode "Last Christmas!" features the three ghosts.
* Jossed for Scrooge playing the part of Ebenezer Scrooge. Instead, it's explained that the Ghosts accidentally met Scrooge [=McDuck=] while looking for the other Scrooge.
* Also Jossed for Scrooge's passionate hatred for Santa, which is referenced multiple times for the episode, but never elaborated.
[[WMG: Season 2 will end with Louie taking over both Glomgold's and Scrooge's companies, much to everyone's dismay]]
Because of the bet, Louie ends up being the richest duck in the world, even if it is just by one cent. It will go to Louie's head but eventually he will realize that he does not like what he is becoming. He ends up giving everything back to Scrooge in what will be one of the most heartwarming moments in the show.
** Confirmed!
[[WMG: There will be a TimeTravel episode where Scrooge, Goldie, Gyro and Fenton end up in the Old West.]]
The SDCC demo showed pictures of Scrooge, Goldie and Fenton in Old West clothing along with Gyro in his regular outfit, along with a SteamPunk Gizmoduck suit and John D. Rockerduck also in Old West clothing. The story will be Gyro building a time machine that ends up transporting him, Fenton, Scrooge and Goldie back to a town in the Old West ruled by the corrupt businessman Rockerduck, and Gyro and Fenton build a steampunk Gizmosuit to defeat Rockerduck.
* Alternatively, only Gyro and Fenton get transported back in time, and team up with a young Scrooge and Goldie against Rockerduck (which is possible if the episode takes place at the end of the 1800s).
* Half-confirmed, half-jossed. [[spoiler:Only Gyro uses TimeTravel. The duck looking like Fenton is Sheriff Marshall Cabrera, the [[IdenticalGrandson identical grandfather]] of Fenton.]]
[[WMG: John D. Rockerduck will be part of the extended family.]]
John D. Rockerduck will have no familial ties to Scrooge [=McDuck=] in his first appearance in the time travel Old West episode, but when Gyro and Fenton come back and mention him, Scrooge and Donald will quickly tell them to be quiet and not to mention his name to the boys, as Rockerduck is a relative of their dad.
[[WMG:Rockerduck will be referred to by [[LastNameBasis his last name]].]]
Related to the two above theories, Gyro and Fenton travel back to the Gold Rush and be antagonized by Rockerduck. The latter will only be known by his last name to preserve the mystery of ''which'' Rockerduck he is, because one of them is [[RelatedInTheAdaptation part of the Duck extended family]]. He might be John, John's (grand-)father Howard, or a new ancestor altogether.
* Jossed, he's explicitly referred to as John D. Rockerduck.
[[WMG:The whole family will have to relocate to Donald's houseboat after the events of the Season 1 finale]]
The trailer for the rest of Season 1 shows both the mansion and the Money Bin getting [[TrashTheSet demolished]] as Magica wrecks havoc. Until both are fixed, they have to relocate to the houseboat. It also would serve as a BookEnd to the premiere where Donald had to move to the mansion after the boat was destroyed until it was fixed. The SDCC trailer for Season 2 also showed [[spoiler:Scrooge on Donald's boat excitedly bursting out of the windows, which supports this.]]
* Jossed. The manor's all fixed up by the start of season 2.
[[WMG: Season 2 will involve TimeTravel]]
Specifically, it will be used to save Della Duck. The show runners said, "They solved a mystery, now history is repeating itself. So the question is: can the Duck family rewrite history?"
While in the context of the article it's talking about the fallout of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser", it could also be a clue as to the next arc.
* The SDCC 2018 promotional pictures showed Bubba the Caveduck and some of the characters in Old West outfits (including a steampunk Gizmoduck suit), supporting this theory.
* TimeTravel is featured in "Last Christmas!", [[spoiler: with the Ghost of Christmas Past taking Scrooge and Dewey back to the past. Dewey meets Della and attempts to tell her about the Spear of Selene, but she shoots it down to avoid a TemporalParadox.]]
* There is also TimeTravel in "The Outlaw Scrooge [=McDuck=]!"
* The SDCCC 2019 trailer reveals Gyro's time tub (and it being stolen) will be part of another episode - possibly the one introducing Bubba and Tootsie.
** Confirmed. In "Timephoon!", Louie steals the time tub and accidentally transports Bubba and Tootsie to the present day.
[[WMG:At least one episode of Season 2 will involve...]]
[[spoiler:Webby discovering Lena isn't gone after all, and trying to restore her to a flesh-and-blood body.]]
* [[spoiler: Confirmed. In "Friendship Hates Magic", Webby successfully resurrects Lena.]]
[[WMG:The magpie girl from the SDCC promotional pictures knows witchcraft and will help Webby restore Lena.]]
Magpies are often associated with gypsies (due to their dark feathers and the ThievingMagpie stereotype) and fictional gypsies often know witchcraft. The promotional picture shows her next to Webby and Lena, implying some kind of connection to them. Perhaps the magpie girl will sense Lena's spirit around Webby and together they summon her, and the three will form some kind of PowerTrio.
* The creators probably don't want to associate a character with racist stereotypes, even that obscurely...
* WordOfGod revealed that she's a hummingbird (specifically, a [[SeldomSeenSpecies violet sabrewing]]), not a magpie.
* [[spoiler:She's neither a magpie nor a gypsy, but she is into magic and occultism and helps Webby restore Lena, so the rest of the speculation is Confirmed.]]
[[WMG:Magica ran away to her brother Poe, and will work with him in season 2]]
After loosing most, or all, of her magic in the season one finale, Magica will need an ally to continue antagonizing Scrooge. The sorceress will believe she is entitled to essentially freeload on her estranged brother Poe, who lacks his sister's commitment to the [=DeSpell=]-[=McDuck=] feud and ambitions of world conquest. Nonetheless, he will lend her a hand in regaining her power to get Magica back on her feet and out of his home.
* Jossed. Poe makes no appearances in season 2, and Magica's stuck working as a party entertainer.
[[WMG: Poe and Minima will show up as Magica's new 'minions']]
Sort of similar to the above theory but more my own version of it. I think Magica will attempt to recruit Poe and Minima as her new 'minions' to replace Lena. But due to not having any leverage or magic to use over them she will struggle to get them to do anything. Perhaps they could just act tired of Magica's nonsense. And they will only really be helping her because they are family and/or like in the above WMG, in order to get her out of their house.
[[WMG: Webby's new friend who was revealed at SDCC 2018 will be related to Mark Beaks.]]
I have seen this theory has been posted around before on reddit and I personally believe it but I have not seen it here so I thought I might as well put it here. The theory is that the girl shown standing with Webby and Lena in the SDCC reel will be related to Mark Beaks. Since she does look like Mark Beaks and it will also be kind of amusing if Webby keeps befriending the family of antagonists. She could possibly be Mark Beak's sister or cousin or niece etc.
Also if she does turn out to be related to Mark Beaks I think it would be interesting if they actually have a good relationship and if she is working with him then she is doing so willingly to contrast with Magica's and Lena's relationship.
* Jossed, Violet Sabrewing has nothing to do with Mark Beaks.
[[WMG: The BigBad of season two will be]]
The main villain of season two will be:
* Magica [=DeSpell=]
* Flintheart Glomgold
** By the look of it Flintheart Glomgold, is the BigBad, since he and Scrooge made the bet which will be one of the season two arcs.
* A Duck version of [[Franchise/{{Mortal Kombat}}]]'s Shang Tsung, since Disney referenced Mortal Kombat twice.
* Double RuleOfCool points if Patric Seitz (who voices Scorpion) or Andrew Kishino voices him, although we already had Magica.
* John D. Rockerduck
* Merlock
* Ma Beagle
* Blackheart Beagle
* Negaduck II
* Blackarts Beagle
* Steelbeak
* Black Heron
* Don Karnage
* Megavolt
* Count Dracula Duck
* Mark Beaks
* Arpin Lusene, aka the Black Knight
* Taurus Bulba
* Pete
* A completely new character
** Ultimately, there is a BigBadEnsemble between Glomgold and a new character introduced in this version of Ducktales, [[spoiler:General Lunaris]].
** From the above characters, Magica, Beaks, Ma Beagle and Don Karnage join a LegionOfDoom led by Glomgold; meanwhile, TheStinger of "Moonvasion" shows [[spoiler:Rockerduck, Steelbeak and Black Heron as F.O.W.L. agents]]. Blackheart Beagle, or Grandpappy Beagle, makes a brief appearance in "Last Christmas", Megavolt appears as a ShowWithinAShow character in "The Duck Knight Returns", and in the same episode [[spoiler:Jim Starling turns into Negaduck]]. Taurus Bulba does not appear in Season 2 but is confirmed to appear in Season 3.
[[WMG:Selene is a ObliviouslyEvil BigBadFriend and will be the main villain of the season.]]
Selene lied to Dewey and Webby when she said she didn't know where Della was or what the Spear of Selene was. Della named the Spear after her and told her that it was meant to be a gift to her children. Fearing her best friend would stop adventuring after her children were born, Selene arranged the cosmic storm that caused the Spear to crash on the moon. Her magic hid Della from the search party and keeps her alive on the moon's surface.
* Jossed by "Whatever Happened To Della Duck?"
[[WMG: The purple girl shown in the SDCC reel is Minima De Spell]]
She and her father Poe De Spell are [[AdaptationalSpeciesChange now anthropomorphic ravens]] instead of ducks, which also means that Poe is now Magica's half-brother.
* WordOfGod revealed that she's a hummingbird (specifically, a [[SeldomSeenSpecies violet sabrewing]]), not a raven.
[[WMG:The Rockerduck seen in the SDCC promo art is not John.]]
It's ''Howard'' Rockerduck, Scrooge's rival from the Klondike. According to John's backstory in the comics, his father Howard started the Rockerduck family fortune during the Gold Rush, but was always regarded as second banana to Scrooge, whom Howard both resented and admired. To fit with the reboot's timeline, this Howard will be changed to John's great-grandfather. John will still have grown up hearing tales of Scrooge [=McDuck=], but the one sided [=McDuck=]-Rockerduck rivalry has lasted more than two generations so Scrooge and John's age difference from the comics (John is usually Donald's age) is carried over into the series.
* Jossed. He's explicitly referred to as John D. Rockerduck, who in this version is about as old as Scrooge.
[[WMG: The wager between Scrooge and Glomgold will be lost because of Della]]
Near the end of the time limit set by the wager Scrooge will have a chance to save Della but it will cost just enough to lose him the wager.
* Unlikely - she made it back on her own. And from the SDCC 2019 trailer, it looks like Glomgold's going to try and cheat his way into victory anyway by forming his LegionOfDoom.
* Jossed. Louie cheated him out of a fortune.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose the bet because of the IRS.]]
His missing poster in "The Ballad of Duke Baloney" says he's wanted for back taxes.
* Jossed, it was Louie that screwed him over.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose because of his cheating.]]
The money spent on his attempts to sabotage Scrooge will be more than the difference that'll make Scrooge the winner.
* Either confirmed or jossed depending on your point of view. Louie rules-lawyered him out of a fortune because he didn't sign his name in his partnership contract with him. So either he lost because of a minor dishonesty, or Louie cheated ''him'' [[{{Irony}} by]] [[RulesLawyer the book]].
[[WMG: The vultures will want to take advantage of the bet to take over [=McDuck=] Enterprises.]]
That Scrooge would agree to such a bet is something they'll use to declare him insane. They'll want to get Glomgold Industries' acting C.E.O. onto the plan out of hope she'll want to declare Glomgold insane and retain her power over his company. He was already considered insane before the bet anyway.
* Jossed. They made no visible power plays during the events of the bet. [[spoiler:It's not until ''afterward'' that they show their true colors.]]
[[WMG: Rockerduck is a parody of ''[[Series/TheDukesOfHazzard Boss Hogg]]''.]]
That's why promotional material portrays him wearing white.
* The two characters don't seem to have anything in common besides dress sense.
[[WMG: Glomgold will ''[[TheBadGuyWins win]]'' the bet against Scrooge.]]
In the penultimate episode of the season, creating a DarkestHour before the the season finale where the Duck family has to leave [=McDuck=] Manor, dirt-poor. But then in the final episode, Glomgold somehow gets HoistByHisOwnPetard and Scrooge gets his money and his mansion back, [[StatusQuoIsGod restoring the status quo]].
* And as Glomgold gloats and laughs in his new office, he stops laughing and it slowly dons on him, that now that he's become the Richest Duck in the World and finally got revenge on Scrooge for "shortchanging" him all those years ago, [[AndThenWhat he has nothing now.]]
* Jossed. Louie made sure of that.
[[WMG:Rockerduck will be the World's second richest duck.]]
When Rockerduck appears in the past he will be the world's second richest duck, this will be because Glomgold has not yet made his fortune. In the modern day Glomgold will of made his fortune becoming the new second richest duck in the world, bumping Rockerduck to the world's third richest duck. He'll show up in the present to reclaim the second richest title once whoever loses the bet (Scrooge or Glomgold) is no longer richer than him.
* Rockerduck's first appearance takes place in Scrooge's prospecting days, ''before'' he has become the world's richest duck, and he appears to be richer than Scrooge at that time.
[[WMG: How Season 2 will end, based on the above guesses]]
The mid-season finale will have the characters realize [[spoiler:Della]] is alive on the moon. Scrooge will organize a mission to rescue her... costing him the bet against Glomgold. The triplets and Donald will be forced to leave [=McDuck Manor=]. Their search for a new home leads them to some familiar faces in places like [[WesternAnimation/GoofTroop Spoonerville]] and [[WesternAnimation/TaleSpin Cape Suzette]]. Meanwhile, a guilt-ridden [[spoiler:Della]] will sink into a DespairEventHorizon, that is until Launchpad boosts her confidence and helps her family restore their faith in her. They eventually reunite to take back [=McDuck=] Enterprises and defeat Glomgold. After some long-awaited touching moments, Donald and [[spoiler:Della]] will decide to leave Duckburg to travel the world together on their boat [[note]][[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls sound familiar?]][[/note]], leaving the triplets in Scrooge's care. And then, as a SequelHook to season 3, Dewey will begin to look at the mystery of his father.
** At least the first point in this WMG is Jossed -- Della makes it back to Earth safe and sound in "The Golden Spear!" Now, '''DONALD''' is a different matter altogether...
** Fully jossed. The bet's over and done with by the time the family is fully together.
[[WMG: Della's reaction upon learning about the bet.]]
She'll comment that she thought Scrooge was "a businessman, not a gambler". It'll be a reference of the 1987 series episode where Glomgold challenged Scrooge to a bet where the loser gives a million dollars to the winner. Scrooge used those words to refuse but changed his mind when Glomgold proposed that the loser would invest a million dollars on the winner's company.
** Jossed. She doesn't seem to care.
[[WMG: Glomgold will lose the bet because of lawyers' fees.]]
In "Storkules in Duckburg", there's a headline about Glomgold accidentally suing himself. He'll lose the bet because he'll have to pay fees to both sides of the case. He'll also be sued for shortchanging the "losing side's" lawyer.
* Jossed, it was Louie. Though, it's not out of the question for a kid like him to aspire to become a lawyer if his own business doesn't work out....
[[WMG: Guesses as to what was blocking Della's transmissions from getting through:]]
* The Vultures
** Evidence for: They're shady assholes who didn't want Della found because she was costing them money. Against: Scrooge almost went bankrupt ''because'' he was spending so much money trying to find Della, so stopping him from finding Della to save money doesn't make sense.
* The Moonlanders
** For: They're most definitely up to something, and have advanced enough technology to hide their entire moon city. Against: They didn't even know she was there, although they could have been blocking her signal unintentionally.
* Magica
** For: Magica' power seems to be related to the moon in some way, and Della started receiving transmissions from earth after she was released. Against: Della is having tech problems, not magic ones.
* Selene
** For: She's the goddess of the moon. Della is stuck on the moon. It seems logical she would know that Della was there, and yet she hasn't said anything. Against: Selene apparently doesn't know about the Moonlanders, so it's possible either she doesn't know everything that happens on the actual physical moon or whatever is hiding the Moonlanders from her also hid Della.
* The crash itself
** For: Sometimes the simplest explanation is the correct one, the crash damaged the transmission device and Della never noticed.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will invade Earth.]]
Shortly after Della leaves the moon, General Lunaris will die in the most Disney squeeze way possible. This will cause Lieutenant Penumbra to be promoted to the rank of general, and to blame Earth people for what happened, meaning there will be an invasion.
* Alternatively, Lunaris will be revealed as EvilAllAlong and will lead the invasion.
** [[spoiler:Confirmed! Lunaris was playing both Della and Penumbra the whole time to make Della look like a traitor and take the Spear of Selene's blueprints to build an armada.]]
[[WMG: Glomgold will find out about the Moon's [[spoiler:vast gold resources]].]]
And the greedy businessman he is, he'll try to conquer the Moon for it.
* Glomgold is crucial in the finale, but he doesn't seem to have any motivation except trying to [[EvilVersusOblivion save the world from freezing]] and [[spoiler:getting his company back]].
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will be the FinalBoss of Season 2...]]
While Glomgold will most likely (and ideally) continue to be the BigBad of this season via his and Scrooge's bet, the Moonlanders will be the last and ultimate threat of Season 2. They have the chops for such a role, being an alien race with highly advanced technology and, if [[FantasticRacism Penumbra]] and [[AmbiguouslyEvil Lunaris]] are any indication, aren't the most noble guys around. They also have Della, the central figure of the series' current MythArc, in their custody, and the reunion between her and the Duck family obviously isn't going to come so easily. And while they have no reason to be hostile to the main characters, given their hospitality to Della (even if for nefarious purposes), there is a good precedent for there to be violent conflict between them and the main cast via [[spoiler: their ''immense'' gold supply, which would be too tempting for a certain greedy Scottish duck in the midst of a serious deal, and had lost much of his wealth searching for Della]].
* The season finale is called "Moonvasion!", confirming the main idea of this speculation. [[spoiler:Lunaris uses Della's blueprints of the Spear of Selene to build an army of golden rockets to invade Earth.]]
* Confirmed.
[[WMG: Going with the above three theories...]]
[[spoiler: The Moonlanders' gold city ends up being destroyed, either accidentally by one of our heroes or by Glomgold attempting to take it for himself.]] The Moonlanders will then decide to retaliate by invading Earth and turning everyone into gold [[note]]sneaking in a little nod to [[WesternAnimation/GravityFalls Weirdmageddon]] where Mark Beaks [[TooDumbToLive attempts to take a selfie with one of the UFOs]] and gets turned into gold as a result[[/note]]. Della and her family will then work to defeat the Moonlanders, who in the end will either [[WeWillMeetAgain swear vengeance]] or [[HeelFaceTurn declare a truce]].
* Everything except Mark Beaks trying to take a selfie with the invaders is Jossed.
[[WMG: Alternatively...]]
The Moonlanders will initially serve antagonistic roles, but eventually do reform. Penumbra will get along with Della like what's been implied in their debut and they will help Della return to earth after she does them a grand gesture. Later on, the Moonlanders will aid the Duck family in their fight against the FinalBoss - be it Glomgold, Magica or an entirely new BigBad.
* Strongly suggested by Gibbous's reaction to Lunaris declaring he wants to destroy the Earth, but only Penumbra actually contributes to Earth's defense.
[[WMG: Scrooge will lose the bet]]
Only to be bailed out by Della arriving in a solid gold space ship.
* Jossed. Della was already back, and Scrooge lost to ''Louie''. Who eventually gave it all back.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders will be the equivalents to the Skrulls, keeping with the similarities to Film/CaptainMarvel2019.]]
They initially appear antagonistic, before it's revealed they're up against an even bigger threat: [[ComicBook/PaperinikNewAdventures the Evronians.]]
* Jossed, though that would have been ''awesome''.
[[WMG: Fethry will meet Louie.]]
And it'll be revealed that, while he considers Huey and Dewey "Little Donalds", he considers Louie a "Little Gladstone".
* Jossed - when he meets Louie, he calls him "green kid".
[[WMG: The Moon Theme will have a TriumphantReprise.]]
Likely when Della and the boys are having some awesome climactic moment.
[[WMG: The Moonlanders, while invading Earth, will use one or more of the triplets to get Della to do what they want.]]
Likely even throwing Della's line, "Because a mother would do anything for the sake of her kids," [[IronicEcho back at her]].
* Jossed. They don't get the chance to threaten the triplets.
[[WMG: D'jinn is the Genie of the Lamp.]]
Regarding the AdaptationNameChange of Dijon to D'jinn, WordOfGod said it's a "minor spoiler". "D'jinn" looks almost like "djinni", which is an alternative spelling for "genie" - and also sounds similar to "Gene", which is the name of the genie from "Treasure of the Lost Lamp". Perhaps he is actually a CompositeCharacter of Dijon and Gene?
* Jossed. [[spoiler:He's actually the ''eighth-great grandson'' of the Genie of the Lamp.]]
[[WMG: Donald will be a pawn in the Moonlander's invasion plot]]
In "The Golden Spear!", [[spoiler:Della finally manages to return to Earth. Alas, Donald accidentally blasts himself into space, just as General Lunaris brings his people to wage war against the planet. Donald will presumably crash land on the moon, where he will held prisoner by the Moonlanders and be forced to help them assist in the invasion by building ships to Earth ''if he ever wants to see his family again.'' Worse still, unlike with Della's situation, there will be no search parties because everybody thinks he's out on a cruise.]]
* [[spoiler:Donald indeed becomes a prisoner of the Moonlanders. However, before they can use him for anything, Penumbra helps him escape, they find an old rocket that Lunaris built and Donald is launched back on Earth.]]
[[WMG: Donald will be [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashed]] by the Moonlanders into becoming Paperinik.]]
Continuing from the above speculation. After imprisoning him, the Moonlanders will do experiments on Donald, give him superpowers and turn him into a vengeful duck that helps them with their AlienInvasion. However, he'll be snapped out of his brainwashed state, do a HeelFaceTurn and help his family save the Earth from the invaders.
* Jossed. [[spoiler:He escaped with Penumbra's help, and finally reunites with the family in the finale when they land on the same deserted island as he did.]]
[[WMG: Goldie is secretly planning on playing a TricksterMentor gambit with Louie.]]
[[spoiler:Sure, she's at least partially agreeing to train him in her underhanded ways to [[TheGadfly get a rise out of Scrooge]]. But she also has just enough heart in her to realize Louie is "[[Recap/DuckTales2017S1E5TerrorOfTheTerrafirmians a good kid with a bright future]]" and not want the kid to fall down the path she fell down. She plans on teaching him but in ways that will ultimately get him to see the greater value in Scrooge's more honest ways.]]
* Not quite Jossed, but it is shown that she actually agreed so she could get into [=McDuck=] Manor to rob Louie, and ends up robbing him anyway. She does keep a photo booth picture of him in her wallet next to Scrooge's, though, so this could still happen in Season 3.
[[WMG:There will be an episode where Gizmoduck has a rivalry with Darkwing Duck]]
Gizmoduck is already known as the defender of Duckburg, but Darkwing thinks he's a better superhero than him, and they will have a rivalry over who is best suited to protect Duckburg.
* It will start with a series of crime sprees from a mysterious figure matching Darkwing's description. Gizmoduck assumes Darkwing is the perp, and in turn they become bitter rivals. Later on, however, they will find out [[spoiler: Negaduck]] was the true criminal and team up to stop him. Afterwards, the two heroes shake hands, confirming their alliance, before Darkwing decides to go fight crime in St. Canard. And then, a SequelHook is established when the imprisoned [[spoiler: Negaduck]] gets a surprise visit from Mark Beaks; teaming up with him in a plot against their respective arch-enemies.
* According to WordOfGod, Darkwing left for St. Canard, only coming back to help deal with the invasion in "Moonvasion!" He meets Gizmoduck and immediately dislikes him, but they don't fight; DW just growls at him.
[[WMG: Webby's trying to recreate [[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGummiBears the gummibeary juice]] from the vial she took from Black Heron]]
This will become useful in a later episode.
[[WMG: Johnny from "Ottoman Empire" will become this show's version of Steelbeak]]
The behind-the-scenes drama between Johnny and Randy parallels the one between Jim Starling and Drake Mallard, and will result in Johnny (who, based on his bitter remarks about Randy, is very hurt by the drama) turning into a supervillain.
** Steelbeak and Johnny are both roosters with light-colored feathers and similar accents so it's definite possibility.
** Based on what we've seen in "The Outlaw Scrooge [=McDuck=]!", Johnny seems unable to handle the show on his own so it will most likely get cancelled. Blaming his brother for it, Johnny will attempt an act of revenge against Randy only for a freak accident to occur that leaves Johnny horribly disfigured and on the verge of death. Learning about the accident, FOWL will see an opportunity arise from this and abduct Johnny to give him a new metallic beak and subject him to brainwashing so that he becomes an obedient agent for them.
** Jossed. [[spoiler:Steelbeak already exists and was shown with the rest of F.O.W.L. while the brothers were on the news with the Ducks.]]
[[WMG: Bubba's debut will involve the kids and Scrooge helping him reunite with Tootsie the triceratops]]
During an archeological dig, our heroes will find Bubba and Tootsie frozen in ice and bring them back to Duckberg for scientific study, only for Tootsie to break free and escape into the city. Upon properly meeting Bubba and learning of his relationship with Tootsie, the kids agree to help the caveduck find his horned friend. Unfortunately, Tootsie's presence in Duckburg has not gone unnoticed by its citizens, specifically catching the eye of an EgomaniacHunter who seeks to hunt down Tootsie in hopes of selling her for a fortune.
** Jossed: Bubba debuts in "Timephoon!" and is accidentally brought to the present thanks to Louie mucking about with Gyro's time travel technology. And "Tootsie" is not Bubba's pet, but a regular triceratops brought to the present by the titular storm who Bubba briefly manages to ride.
[[WMG: Penumbra will help Donald escape]]
The Moonlanders will most likely figure out Donald is Della's brother and use him to gain information about her. While he is being imprisoned, Penumbra organizes a plot to sneak him out. They are initially cold and distrustful to one another until their relationship with Della gradually causes them to bond. The episode ends in either two ways: A) Penumbra's betrayal is discovered by the other Moonlanders and she hastily sends Donald on a ship back to Earth before she is apprehended and turned over to Lunaris. B) Donald makes his escape completely unnoticed, but little does he know that Penumbra has used information from him to aid in Lunaris' scheme. Penumbra, however, remains unsure of whether she did the right thing.
* Largely Confirmed. Penumbra helps Donald escape, Lunaris finds them and tries to stop them, but Donald manages to fly off in an old cannon-fired rocket built by Lunaris.
[[WMG: Penumbra will pull a HeelFaceTurn at the climax of the invasion plot]]
[[HeroicSacrifice Ultimately costing]] [[RedemptionEqualsDeath her life]]. This scene is made even more tragic as by this point she and Della were truly starting to bond. Once the day is saved, Della decides to honor "Penny" by returning to space to explore in a re-rebuilt Spear of Selene. Donald tags along with her and they promise to keep in touch with the rest of the family, making for a BittersweetEnding to the season.
* ALTERNATIVELY: She will bring the other Moonlanders to realize that Lunaris has driven them into his invasion plot using fear and deception. Once Lunaris is defeated, the rest of the Moonlanders will establish homes on Earth and experience what the planet is like. Judging by her appearance in the Season 3 poster, it seems Penumbra could be joining the cast.
* [[WordOfGod Frank Angones]] said that [[https://suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/187284373756/oh-by-the-way one of the "good guys"]], [[https://suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/187284478671/are-they-in-the-season-3-poster-even-though-they who is on the Season 3 poster]], will not survive into Season 3. This makes Penumbra a very likely candidate.
** Title guess confirmed; the rest is jossed. Penumbra, already good, shows up at the last minute and destroys the engines of Lunaris's ship, and is then brought back to Earth by the Ducks.
[[WMG: Glomgold will be betrayed by his LegionOfDoom.]]
Likely due to his incompetence and needlessly convoluted schemes.
** Jossed. They just abandoned him when they found he was planning to betray ''them''.
[[WMG: The heroes and villains will have a big battle, until the finale creates a dramatic turn of events which forces them into an EnemyMine]]
Of course I'm referring to the moon invasion. All the villains will ultimately decide to team up with their rivals to save their home from annihilation. Unfortunately, they are all later stabbed in the back by Glomgold, who [[RevengeBeforeReason ends up siding with Lunaris in hopes of finally destroying Scrooge]]. It massively blows up in his face when Glomgold is not only betrayed back by his former LegionOfDoom, but by the aliens as well.
** Subverted. "[=GlomTales=]!" was just over a week before the events of "Moonvasion!", and Glomgold is the only one of the villain group who gets involved in stopping the invasion; Lunaris is as much an enemy to him as Scrooge is.
[[WMG: The Season 2 finale will plot wise be the inverse of season 1]]
In season 1, Scrooge's family needed to come together to save him from a great enemy. In this finale, Scrooge will need to gather all the employees and associates of his family to save them from [[spoiler: the moon men]].
* Confirmed.
[[WMG: Selene will be involved in the final episodes of the season.]]
While she's not shown in the trailer, she'll show up at some point anyway during the Moonlander invasion of Earth, and will be ''ticked'' at them. (She'll also be very glad to find out Della's back.)
** Confirmed as being involved - and while she's not mad, she ''does'' play a role in Lunaris's final defeat.
[[WMG: Don Karnage will pull a HeelFaceTurn before season 2 is out.]]
On the promo poster for seasons 2 and 3, all but one of its characters are either heroic or jerkish but good-leaning. The one exception is Don Karnage... why would they include him as a lone villain over any of the major antagonists?
* Well, the poster also has [[JerkassGods Zeus]] and [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Goldie]], who are technically antagonistic characters, but they fit into the "jerkish but good-leaning" box and neither of them is a villain the same way Don Karnage is.
* One possible way of this going down: he doesn't find his place in Glomgold's LegionOfDoom, and is [[EvenEvilHasStandards is horrified how far his teammates can go]] when it comes to villainy. Because of this, he turns against his teammates and helps Scrooge and his friends to defeat the other villains.
** Jossed for season 2, but a HeelFaceTurn in season 3 is still possible.
[[WMG: The little African Grey Parrot seen in the promo poster for seasons 2 and 3 is a robot]]
Expanding on this theory, he was created by Mark Beaks and given the name [[Manga/AstroBoy AstroBeaks]]. His initial purpose was to be Mark's successor, but over time he will be reform into essentially a better version of his creator. He will also debut in "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!" as strongly indicated by one of the promos.
* Him being a robot by Mark Beaks and debuting in "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!" is confirmed. However, his name is Beaks' Optimistic Young Droid, or Boyd for short, and he was built by Beaks to attract attention, because apparently father-son photos are trending.
[[WMG: Who dies in the season 2 finale?]]
Penumbra has already been discussed as a likely candidate. But the other...
* Pre-existing characters are probably off-limits for death, but Della is the most likely candidate. And then everyone watching will be ''furious''.
* One possibility: Johnny or Randy Empire from "Ottoman Empire" - the trailer from SDCC 2019 shows them in working with the Ducks in a scene likely from the finale.
** And now we know: it's one of the Little Bulb duplicates, a couple of Gyro's clones, and the Mickey watermelon. TrollingCreator much?
[[WMG: Unless...]]
[[AmbigiousCloneEnding The original Gyro really was killed off]] as he and the clones can't tell each other apart.
[[WMG: Louie's decision after the cliffhanger from "[=GlomTales!=]"]]
He'll give his newly-earned riches to Scrooge, but only if Della takes him to wherever the heck [[NoodleIncident the family was going to while he was grounded.]] That, or he'll give Scrooge's fortune back while keeping everything else for himself.
** Nope, he kept it until he learned better, and then handed it all over to Scrooge.
[[WMG: The thing that will make everyone furious is Della and Donald's reunion will be drawn out even more]]
In "Whatever Happened to Donald Duck!", Donald flew back to Earth and crash-landed in an unknown location. Pretty much like an an inverse of the season 1 finale, this season's finale will reveal Donald stranded on an island. He receives the news that Della is back in Duckburg and desperately begins a quest to get back there himself.
* Even more infuriating? Something happens to Della at the end of the finale (hopefully not killed off, but maybe kidnapped or she goes on a solo adventure) and Donald returns ''just minutes later''. Either way, the two won't see each other again until mid-season three.
** Jossed, according to Frank the moment that would frustrate people was Bubba being the first [=McDuck=].
