- “Even more dangerous than a Brussels sprout.”
- —Villain Vault
Tussle Sprout is a Brussels sprout who is one of the playable Earth villains in Skylanders: Trap Team. Not long after the Skylanders had arrived at Know-It-All Island, Tussle Sprout and a gang of Plant Warriors attacked them after they destroyed a Traptanium crystal cluster and fell through a false floor. Unfortunately, he was quickly taken down and trapped.
He also appears as a trappable villain in Skylanders: Lost Islands, where upon being trapped, he will help the player by raising the chances of Gem-producing trees and plants growing in the player's kingdom.
Abilities
As a trapped villain, his main attack is releasing a toxic cloud around himself that quickly expands and damages everything it hits. His secondary attack tosses a seed to the ground, which turns into a patch releasing toxic fumes. He can have up to 4 such patches active at the same time.
During his bossfight, he only uses his main attack, and it has a much greater recharge time.

Trivia
- His name is a play-on-words of Brussels sprout, a type of vegetable, and tussle.
- Tussle Sprout is allergic to the air at Skylanders Academy, and when trapped he states he's also "totally allergic to vortexes".
- His voice sounds similar to one of the most prominent MGM characters, Droopy the Dog.
- He is one of four villains who, upon being captured in a trap, vaguely reference the smell of mustard (the others are Chompy Mage, Chef Pepper Jack, and Blaster-Tron).
- This makes Tussle Sprout the first non-Doom Raider that mentions this, with the second being Blaster-Tron.
- He is also the first villain to reference the trap's vague smell of mustard.
- He and Chef Pepper Jack are the only plant-based playable characters that are not in the Life element.
- In his concept art, his sprout is slightly green and orange. In game however, his sprout is colored differently.
- If a toxic seed from his secondary attack falls into a bottomless pit, all loaded enemies will act as if they've been hit by it.
