Allies
Governor Kevin
Governor Kevin
- Voiced by: Martin Mull
- Camp Straight: He has visible eyelashes and seems flamboyant at times, but he does has a girlfriend.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: He at first is understandably nervous about three kids deciding to stop Baron von Blitz. When he sees them in action, however, and especially after they capture the Baron in the pilot, he makes them deputized heroes. He also prepares for when their ordinary belt, rope and skateboard will fail in battle and gives them upgrades courtesy of Paulson.
- Totally Radical: He lived this trope, but it was probably intentional and he managed to come across as a pretty cool guy despite (and perhaps even thanks to) it.

Madame Snake
Madame Snake
A shapeshifting thief.- Capture and Replicate: In her debut episode, she kidnaps Teamo Supremo's schoolteacher and impersonates her to keep the team buried up to their necks in homework so they'd be too busy to stop her crime spree. In her next appearance, she takes the place of Governor Kevin so she can eventually break into Level Seven.

- Shapeshifting: Her power.
- Snake People: Her true form is elongated and green like a serpent. Her dress trails off like a snake's tail.

- Fatal Flaw: His temper. Crawford can get worked up and angered to the point where he makes some foolish choices. In his first appearance, he got so angry that his powers weren't affecting the Team that he just kept boosting the Mega Gauntlets' power until they shut down in failsafe. In his second appearance Mr. Paulson riles him up until he hands over the Gauntlets to Teamo Supremo so he can fight Paulson himself at his goading.
