This article is about the characters from the games. You may be looking for the characters from the spin-off TV series.

The Greebles are one of the main enemies introduced in Skylanders: Swap Force. No one knows where the Greebles came from, but some say they were hatched from colored eggs. Power hungry wizards and sorcerers can order them by the dozen in the "Minions Monthly" catalog for a relatively afforadable fee, that sometimes comes with a free hat.

After being evilized by Kaos upon being brought into his army, their purple Evilized counterparts take over the roles of their normal counterparts. Large mutant Greebles are called Bubba Greebs.

In Skylanders: SuperChargers, Buzz bought a Greeble Dispenser from the Minions Monthly catolog for the Skylanders to use Greebles as living training dummies at the Skylanders Academy. In the Land Vehicle training area, Greebles drive the Clunker vehicles.

In battle arenas, Greebles occasionally come down from the sky, and are dropped off by green umbrellas.
