Spring-Loaded

"Bounce and Pounce!"

- Spring-Loaded's official catchphrase Spring-Loaded, a trampoline being, is a new Core Skylander introduced in Skylanders: Imaginarium. He is of the Magic element.

Personality
First being the sheriff of Skylands West, Spring-Loaded had always known that responsibility is key to protecting his land. Always keeping the memories of his sheriff days close to his heart, Spring-Loaded is always pumped up for battle, and is ready to pounce on anything in his way!

Biography
Ever since he had been born, Spring-Loaded had always taken the role of the sheriff in Skylands' West. Although it seemed that it was a lot of work to be done, he had always ended up defeating enemies and saving the West from evil-bound villains. After years of hard labor as sheriff, villains and enemies realized that Spring-Loaded defeats them every time, and stopped trying to take over the West. There had been two years when enemies hadn't invaded at all! Spring-Loaded felt that he still had a lot of fight in him to protect Skylands, so he gave up his position as sheriff and left Skylands' West. When Lucas witnessed a battle where Spring-Loaded proved victorious, he asked him to join the Skylanders. Spring-Loaded accepted, yelling a huge "YEEHAW!"

Stats
Spring-Loaded's punches are melee punches, but because of his extra-long springs that connect to his fists, he can almost punch enemies at range. Because of that, his strength stat average is high. His armor is made of trampolines (or parts of trampolines), and any attack can simply bounce off of him, resulting in his defense being high as well. Spring-Loaded walks in shoes with huge springs attached to the bottom, making it hard for him to run. As a result, his speed average is, well, average.

Abilities
Spring-Loaded's primary attack allows him to punch enemies with his trampoline-like fists. Because they are connected by springs, Spring-Loaded can punch enemies at range too. However, in order to extend his reach, it's obligatory to upgrade him further. Spring-Loaded's secondary attack acts as a ground pound move, in which he bounces and pounds the ground.
