Trap
Type(s): Magic Items
Function: Trap and contain Villains
Grant gold
Grant Skystone of trapped villain
Various
Appearance(s): Skylanders: Trap Team
Rift into Overdrive
Skylanders: SuperChargers (Racing)
Skylanders: Battlecast
Skylanders: Imaginators

Traps are crystal Figures used to capture Villains in Skylanders: Trap Team. They are made of Traptanium and are shattered fragments of Cloudcracker Prison. Each Trap is associated with an Element needed to capture Elemental Villains. Traps are placed in a slot on the Traptanium Portal when a Villain is defeated to capture the Villain.

Usage

In Skylanders: SuperChargers, when placed in the Portal, your Vehicle will receive an elemental power based on the Trap's element and a special Skystone for Skystones Overdrive depending on which Villain is trapped inside. In the Wii version of Skylanders: SuperChargers Racing, when placed in the Portal, your Vehicle will receive a stat boost depending on the Trap's Element.

In Skylanders: Battlecast, Jawbreaker, Snap Shot and Krypt King carry Traps that act as Relics, being able to temporarily summon Dr. Krankcase, Chill Bill and Masker Mind respectively.

In Skylanders: Imaginators, the Traps function the same way as in Skylanders: SuperChargers during the raceway part of the game. In the normal part of the game, they only give you 500 gold. They cannot be used in the Nintendo Switch version of Imaginators.[1]
