Funny / Skylanders

General

• Pretty much everything Kaos says, thanks to being voiced by the hamtastic Richard Steven Horvitz. His Deadpan Snarker sidekick Glumshanks makes it even funnier.
  Kaos: My head is awesome, I tell you! Fear it! Fear my GIANT FLOATING HEAD!
  Kaos: Impossible! You survived my best water spell! Ahem! I MEAN... You survived a very mediocre water spell that I found laying around— somewhere. I AM NOT IMPRESSED!
  Kaos: You totally beat my Totally Unbeatable Deadly Evil Life Spell of Ultimate Death! Er... NEVER MIND!
  Kaos: Attention! Here is the list of Skylanders that I want to be caught and disposed of immediately. Ahem. All of Them! Thank you~!
  • In SuperChargers, the Story Scrolls have been replaced with Kaos' audio diaries, and they're all equally hilarious.
  Kaos: UGH! Mother has somehow managed to send me another meddlesome SELF-HELP BOOK from her mirror prison of endless oblivion. HA! As if I - KAOS - even NEED help! And even if I did, I wouldn't listen to this book's STUPID advice. Listen - "Do not hide the source of your power inside of a world-destroying abomination; instead, store it securely in a safe deposit box." Seriously? There's no box large enough to hold MY awesome power! HA! Besides, what self-respecting evil villain would even open a bank account?!
• The "Easter Surprise" commercial has plenty of funny moments, but the funniest one is when Hot Dog points out that Thumpback is in a mailbox, prompting the big guy to drop an appropriate variation on his catchphrase:
  Thumpback: HAAAIL TO THE MAAAIL!
• Honestly, you can find humor in the series' All-Star Cast. There's a massive variety of voice actors across video games, anime, western cartoons and beyond, that you can find a large variety of funny combinations in two player mode. Just as some examples of VA combinations that can be played:
  • Patrick Seitz (Hot Head, Rip Tide or Thrillipede) and Tom Kenny (Stink Bomb or High Five)
  • Sean Schemmel (Tread Head) and Cree Summer (Roller Brawl)
  • Maurice LaMarche (Night Shift or Dive-Clops) and Matthew Mercer (Spyro post-Superchargers)
  • Grey DeLisle (Smolderdash) and Dave Wittenberg (Trigger Happy)
  • Gregg Berger (Magna Charge) and Tara Platt (Punk Shock)
  • Rob Paulsen (Smash Hit) and Travis Willingham (Eye Brawl, Doom Stone or Fist Bump)
  • Tara Strong (Flashwing) and Keith Silverstein (Bash or Dino-Rang)
  • Yuri Lowenthal (Fright Rider or Trail Blazer) and Hynden Walch (Chopscotch)
  • Bobcat Goldthwait (Pop Fizz) and John Dimaggio (Wash Buckler and Wallop)
  • Jess Harnell (Blast Zone, Flip Wreck, Gusto or Crash Bandicoot) and Kevin Sorbo (Crusher)
  • Danny Jacobs (Swarm) and Edward Bosco (Buckshot)
• In The Book of Fire and Water, there's a section about Slam Bam's shaved ice recipes. The first one is "Fish Surprise" which has ingredients of "Fish" and "Ice" and the recipe is 1. Take Ice, 2. Take Fish, 3. Eat with the recipe being called that because the fish looks surprised before it gets eaten.
• Several Skylanders from Spyro's Adventure to Swap Force have unused idle lines for whenever the player left them standing still for a long time. They're all quite funny ranging from random sentences to expressing boredom to passive-aggressive wishes to get going and so on. A few even start singing short ditties.
  Chop Chop: I await your command. *Yawns.*
  Crusher: Hey, I'm starting to erode. | More crushing, less waiting.
  Cynder: I don't like being ignored. | I have no patience for this.
  Dino-Rang: What's with the stand about? You tryin' to make me a fossil?
  Double Trouble: Shwooga booga booga let's go booga booga. | Ooga booga not doin' muchabooga.
  Eye-Brawl: You're probably wondering how I sleep. I'm not going to tell you.
  Ghost Roaster: Come on! I got a bone to pick with the bad guys! | *Singing.* Leg bone connected to the chain bone!
  Hex: This feels like...eternity.
  Hot Dog: *Growl.* Are you gonna teach me a new trick? Like not being bored? Guess I'll just take myself for a walk.
  Jet-Vac: How about we move on...before I start molting! | You know, I could be vaccuming my room now.
  Pop Fizz: So, little bottle, how are you doing today? Oh, I'm doing fine, thank you. | Hello, little bottle. Hello in there. I like you.
  Prism Break: Let's go before I fossilize.
  Shroomboom: You know, I used to live in a box. Not that fun. | I'm getting bored...and so is my slingshot.
  Slam Bam: I could juggle for you, but your mind couldn't handle it. | *Groans* I think I'll just arm-wrestle myself.
  Stump Smash: Guess I'll just count my rings.
  Terrafin: You got to the count of 10.
  Thumpback: Maybe there's a way to wash this BOREDOM out to sea.
  Wham-Shell: My mace and I are getting bored; can we go now? | Maybe I'll just burrow in the ground for a while.
  Wrecking Ball: Bowling is my favorite sport, especiallly when I'm the ball.
  Zap: Time for a zap! Get it? Zap...nap...um, hello? Is anyone there?

Spyro's Adventure

• Early in the game, before the first lock puzzle, Gurglefin, who’s locked in a cage, has this exchange with the Lockmaster Imp:
  Gurglefin: Say, if you are going to eat me, you should know that I’m really salty and kinda high in cholesterol.
  Lockmaster Imp: Ifb U arr eabt me… I’b saltby and phat too.
  Gurglefin: Oh, great. Someone get me out of here!
  Lockmaster Imp: Summon getty underwear! Hehehehe!
• After the Skylanders reclaim the Golden Gear from Kaos, we get a scene where Kaos rants about their supposed plans to steal his "glowing green goo", reminiscent of General Ripper. Then, in the next scene...
• Upon the gates to the world of the Undead opening up, General Robot leaves the scene.

Giants

• Drill-X, a drill robot that is the boss of Chapter 11, who starts rapping about how he's going to destroy you.
  It's the end of the track, Skylander!
  This drill-bot is on the scene!
  I'll knock you forward and back
  with a robo attack
  'cause you're messing with the wrong machine!
• In Kaos' Kastle, one of his Wilikin servants, Dewberry, says that his family made their own soda, which included the flavors sand, mud, and radioactive suction eel.
  Dewberry: Did not sell well. Some left in those barrels though. Can drink if you like, but don't recommend!

SWAP Force

• An E3 wraparound has the SWAP Force showing off their cool swappabilities to Fatboy Slim's Weapon of Choice. Before that, however, through the curtain, we hear(and see silhouettes of) Pop Fizz and Eruptor preparing the SWAP Force for their big show, with a series of funny moments. Take this one for example:
  Eruptor: Hey, Wash Buckler. Are you stretchin' out?
  Wash Buckler: I'm an octopus, dude. I was born stretched.
  Pop Fizz: Well, this is E3. It doesn't get bigger than this.
  Eruptor: Or blogger-ier! Smell that? Latte.
  Wash Buckler: Whatever. Let me have a look.(peeks out from the curtains) Yeah, bloggers. They're just standin' around.(to an audience member) Hey you! Tweet this! "Just saw SWAP Force, had to SWAP MY PANTS! #swapforce #yomama"!(goes back into the curtains)
  Eruptor: What's out there?
  Wash Buckler: Ironic T-shirts, as far as the eye can see...
• A series of teasers were released with Kaos swapping bodies not with the SWAP Force, but with a tutu, a duck, a baby, a frog, tap shoes, and a princess dress.
  Duck!Kaos: Bow down to my waddle of doom!
  Baby!Kaos: Now this diaper is filled with evil!
  Frog!Kaos: You will fear...the...croak!
  Tap Dancer!Kaos: I will rule... the dance floor? (suddenly in an Irish accent) You are no match for my flyin' feet of fury!
  Princess!Kaos: Prepare to bow down to... Princess Kaos? Now I am evil and dainty! Actually, this taffeta is quite soft.
• The SWAP Force commercial has several funny moments. Observe.
• In the third phase of the battle against Super Evil Kaos, you enter his head through his ear and battle against his brain. First, his brain summons Evil Glumshanks to fight you, but he almost immediately drives his vehicle off the edge of the arena. Later, he tries to conjure the most horrific thing he can think of... which turns out to be a bunch of sheep with his head.
• When Kaos is defeated, he and Glumshanks find that the magic of Mt. Cloudbreak gave them the ability to swap parts. Kaos is just happy because he's tall now.
  Kaos: Look out Skylands! Kaos is back! And this time, he's TALL!

Trap Team

• The Wii U version has the villain displayed on the GamePad. Poking them will make them either roar or lash out at you. The same goes for the Skylanders when the villain is in control, but they only have one reaction (their "defeated" animations) after several pokes per character: Snap Shot will throw his weapons to the ground and turn away from you, arms crossed in a "Hmph!" fashion, characters like Spry and Blades will get upset and look dejected, looking at you sadly (Blades' comes complete with his lower lip quivering) and Pop Fizz in normal form will start hitting himself in the head with an empty potion bottle, to name a few.
  • Other good reactions include Krypt King attempting to do his cool sword flip from his intro animation, but fumbling and just looking dejectedly at his sword, Blastermind shocking himself with his powers and Flip Wreck just outright leaving.
• Flynn being scared by Tessa at the start of the Pheonix Psanctuary level.
• In Rainfish Riviera, when Mags asks you to use the crane to carry her across the bridge, you can do just that. Or you can have fun and drop her straight into the water. She says different things each time, before warning you that she is undead and can hold a grudge.
• Nightshade's decision as to how to deal with the vortex, just when the vortex pulls him in at the last moment.
  "Eh, I guess I couldn't really elude capture forever. Well, it appears I'm going away for a bit. I shall endure this capture sequence with dignityyyyyyyy-!"
• Some of Shrednaught's reactions to the Skylander fighting involve one of the Trolls coming out of the bathroom and asking the other what he missed. Yes, apparently, the traps have bathrooms inside them.
• You can put a ridiculously tall stovepipe hat on one of your Skylanders or captured villains. This includes Dr. Krankcase.
• The Running Gag regarding trapped villains commenting on the smell of mustard (referenced by Tussle Sprout, Chompy Mage, Chef Pepper Jack and Blaster-Tron (whose dialogue after being trapped lampshades the villains' capturing dialogue such as outright telling the Skylander to take him with them)).

SuperChargers

• Like in Giants where they let you customize Flynn's ship, Legendary Treasures in SuperChargers let you add interactive objects to the Skylanders Academy. One is a Chompy in a hamster ball, which attempts to attack you like a normal Chompy and fails, then starts following you around.
• Lord Stratosfear's defeat, he gets ejected out of his craft, landing on the road and rolls while making the silliest expressions of pain before stopping and... Fainting.

Imaginators

• Minor one, but this game lets you play as Kaos. Problem is.... KAOS IS THE VILLAIN OF THE GAME. That's right, you can fight Kaos with Kaos.
  • There is an in-universe explanation, however: the playable Kaos is actually a clone made by the real Kaos who thought more than one of him would be enough for him to take over Skylands. The only problem? The clone is an EXACT copy of the real Kaos in appearance and personality, meaning he wanted Skylands for himself, so he ended up defecting to the Skylanders so he can Kill and Replace his creator.
• The fact that Spyro isn't even surprised that Kaos stole the Mind Magic Book.
• This exchange in Cradle of Creation:
  Spyro: Okay, I've tracked that mysterious book-stealing bad guy to this equally mysterious place. Master Eon said I would find someone here who can help me stop him.
  Doomlander: Fat chance, Spyro! I'm TOTALLY INVICIBLE!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
  Spyro: ...Heh, strange that we can hear each other from this distance.
• During a cutscene where Kaos is experimenting with Mind Magic, he turns Glumshanks into a giant Chompy. Glumshanks doesn't seem to notice.
• Two words: Guacamole Monster.
  Pop Fizz: HOLY GUACAMOLE!
• The Arena this time around has Chill Bill and Broccoli Guy providing commentary with many, many humorous lines such as Chill Bill saying that he thinks the new Character Customization feature is cool and that he totally isn't saying that because the developers programmed him to.
  • He'll also mention between rounds that the next one will be harder because a fortune cookie told him, so it must be true.
  • One of the arena challenges has you representing Stealth Elf to clear her name. What crime did she commit? Unpaid parking tickets. In SKYLANDS.
• The Running Gag of Kaos' Doomlanders having nonsensical catchphrases. When one of them says something impressive instead, Kaos will often look toward the player with a goofy grin on his face. The best example is this:
  Sorcerer Doomlander: Be Afraid of the Bananas!
  Kaos (does a Double Take) Eh!?
• The post-game sidequests that involve Flynn are pretty hilarious in their own right. Examples:
  • The Battlefield Blitz/Operation: More War quest has Flynn try to invoke Harmless Villain:
    Flynn: Hey Skylander buddy, get this— Kaos is using an evil Creationtron to make balloons! Can you believe it? Balloons!? I can't think of anything less threatening. I mean, even puppies have teeth.
    (one of the balloons drops a bomb)
    Flynn: WHAT THE?!? Okay, I retract my earlier statement. Balloons are horrible!!^note Note that Flynn was specifically a balloon pilot in the first game.
  • "AAAAAHH! GIANT JELLYFISH!!"
• The post-game sidequests in general have pretty funny moments:
  • "(whispering) Gotta be super quiet here. Don't wanna alert the bad guys." "THERE IT IS, A ROCKET SITE!"
• Grave Clobber's Sensei Shrine cutscene. He's more worried about admiring a pretty bug on his finger than he is about the floating robot hands ready to pound his face in. He only notices when one of the hands punches him— and he isn't even hurt by the blow. However, the punch also scares the bug away, so Grave Clobber flies into a rage, picks up the hand that punched him and smashes the other one with it. The other hand visibly panics right before getting clobbered.
  • There's also Pain-Yatta. The other Smasher Senseis, Chopscotch and Tri-Tip, smash the red button on the shrine with all their might in their respective cutscenes. Pain-Yatta winds up... and lightly taps the button with his giant lollipop. Not only does this still work, but candy flies out of the orb on the shrine right before said orb rockets into the sky!
• According to Hood Sickle's backstory, Eon made him into a Sensei because of the fact that he is so terrifying that his students are too afraid to not pay attention to him.
  Hood Sickle now teaches Sentinel Imaginators, who definitely hang on his every word. Or else.
