Assault on Skylander Academy is the twelfth episode in the Skylanders Academy television series.

Synopsis

When Eon falls seriously ill, the Skylanders must race to find a light energy source to heal him. Meanwhile, the Doom Raiders attack the academy.

Story

After his first usage of the Book of Dark Magic, Master Eon studied the dark relic for some time, and his condition grew worse in the process, making him easily tired and falling in and out of consciousness. Though Hugo arrived with food and a smoothie with darkness immunity shots, Eon requested greater help from the Skylanders, before collapsing due to coughing once again.

By the time he is in condition to talk again, Team Spyro had already arrived, and while denying Hugo's chicken soup, he explains that he needed the light from the Core of Light to combat the darkness now coursing through his veins. The Core is located in The Isle of the Citadel, which even Jet-Vac thought to be a legend, built by Eon after the events of the Great War. While warning the team about its dangers and secrets, however, the wizard's strength wanes once again, and Hugo continues his explanation, and gives the Skylanders a flask themed after Eon's helmet while they placed him in the nearby sofa. Once ready, the Mabu instructed them to stand on tiles representing their elements in the Library floor, and the Skylanders quickly rearrange themselves to activate the tile portal and transport themselves to the island. Ready for action, the group quickly follows the nearest path.

In Kaossandra's Castle, the sorceress waits for Glumshanks to arrive, and explains to him that she would be leaving to Skylanders Academy to retrieve her spellbook, and that he had to keep Kaos occupied until she returned to keep him from interfering. Assuring her that he had several methods to distract her son, he immediately leaves to the Guest Castle to announce game night, bringing in several tabletop games. However, in the meantime, Kaos made up his mind about leaving to find the Book of Dark Magic himself, taking notice that its dark magic increased his own power, and is adamant about ignoring the games in an attempt to convince his mother to teach him about the dark spells. Glumshanks quickly tries to list him other things to do, but running out of options, he attempts to physically stop Kaos and order him to stay inside. However, the moment of authority particularly angered the sorcerer, and Kaos used dark electric tethers to throw Glumshanks around as punishment, until the troll gave in and followed him to Skylanders Academy.

Long before their arrival, however, Chompy Mage is already silently moving through the school's courtyard on a bush costume, but before reaching the end of the garden, he suddenly notices Dreamcatcher with a fake cloud taped over her back; and worse yet, just as the Chompy sorcerer called her out, Chef Pepper Jack passed through them, mistaking the disguises for the real thing. As the three call out each other, they discover Wolfgang behind Chompy Mage, and promptly Golden Queen arrives from under the island, berating them for trying to infiltrate the Academy without her. Though Dreamcatcher tries to accuse the queen of also trying to act solo, she is met with yelling as the statue attempts to assert her leadership, and eventually Broccoli Guy finds the group from above, complaining that they lied to him about going to the beach instead. Just as the team is completed, their arguing is heard by Ka-Boom, who despite struggling with the call, assembles the nearby cadets and Skylanders to attack.

Continuity

• Kaossandra and Eon seem to have met one another before.
• As of this episode, Kaos is now a full member of the Doom Raiders but now can no longer return home.

Errors & Mistakes

• Despite the joke that Team Spyro hadn't seen the elemental teleporters for most of the season in the Library, they were never there before the events of this episode. Three of the pads do not match the carpet that supposedly covered them.
• When Hex, Roller Brawl and Bad Breath attack Kaos at the main hall's doors, only Skull and Roller Brawl are targeted by his attacks. In their next frame, however, all of them are on the other side of the courtyard, incapacitated.
• When Team Spyro approaches Eon at the end of the episode to cure him, he is laying face-down, but when the potion's effects end, he is laying face-up.

Trivia

• Glumshanks references a number of real-life board games when trying to distract Kaos with a game night:
  • Skyopoly is a reference to Monopoly.
  • Cards Against Troll Dignity is a reference to Cards Against Humanity.
• When attacking Kaos, Skull exclaims, "What a day! What a lovely day!", a famous quote from the movie Mad Max: Fury Road.
