Wash Buckler was one of the three Skylanders assigned to deliver supplies to a Mabu mining expedition digging for Radiance Crystals. While travelling there by Flynn's Dread-Yacht, the Octosquid was relaxing on deck and insisted that Stealth Elf should relax and enjoy the ride to the expedition. In response, Wash Buckler was intimidated when Stealth Elf asked if he had a problem with her way of "relaxing" after making short work of the training dummies. Suddenly, the Skylanders noticed that Kaos' army of trolls were attacking the Mabu mining expedition for the Radiance Crystals, and Wash Buckler, along with Pop Fizz and Stealth Elf quickly took action to aid the Mabu.

During the battle, the three Skylanders were forced to handle the trolls on their own due to the other Skylanders currently defending parts of Skylands elsewhere. Things soon turned for the worse when [[Wolfgang]] arrived, causing the Skylanders, including Stealth Elf, to feel threatened and outmatched as they weren't prepared to tackle both a Troll army and a villain. Before Wolfgang could begin his attack, the Trap Masters, Snap Shot and Wallop, arrived in time to help their comrades. With their combined efforts, they defeated Wolfgang and drove off the Trolls, saving the Mabu expedition. Both the Skylanders and the Trap Masters are praised by the Mabu leader for their efforts in saving the Mabu, but soon came to notice that the Fork of Infinite Resonance was stolen by the Trolls, causing the Skylanders to ponder on what Kaos was up to.

“Eight Legs and No Pegs!”
    —Wash Buckler's official catchphrase


Wash Buckler is a Mermasquid pirate who is one of the SWAP Force Skylanders in Skylanders: Swap Force. He is of the Water element. His SWAP Force Ability is Climb.

Background

Physical Traits

Wash Buckler is a blue colored Mermasquid, using six tentacles as legs, two as arms, and two as a moustache. He wears a black and gold pirate hat over a red doo rag on his head, and has dark purple irises with no pupils. He wears a blue baroque coat with gold colored sleeves and a white shirt underneath, and also wears a red belt around his waist.  He wields his slightly damaged cutlass in his right hand and his wooden Bubble Blaster in his left.

Personality

Unlike most pirates, Wash Buckler is kind-hearted and true. He was never comfortable with pirating.[1]

Biography

Wash Buckler was an orphan Mermasquid, who grew up on one of the roughest pirate ships in Skylands. While most pirates were interested in pillaging and plundering, Wash Buckler had other ideas for the future of pirating. Over the years, he earned the respect of his crew and eventually convinced his fellow pirates that they didn’t all need to be cantankerous bad guys. Thus, they set forward doing heroic deeds. Of course, this new good guy image did not sit well with other pirating crews, who attempted to sabotage Wash Buckler at every turn. But he was no ordinary pirate, and he defended his ship and his crew against the many attacking hordes. It was then that Master Eon took notice of Wash Buckler and asked him to join the Skylanders.

Story

The Kaos Trap

Wash Buckler was one of the three Skylanders assigned to deliver supplies to a Mabu mining expedition digging for Radiance Crystals. While travelling there by Flynn's Dread-Yacht, the Octosquid was relaxing on deck and insisted that Stealth Elf should relax and enjoy the ride to the expedition. In response, Wash Buckler was intimidated when Stealth Elf asked if he had a problem with her way of "relaxing" after making short work of the training dummies. Suddenly, the Skylanders noticed that Kaos' army of trolls were attacking the Mabu mining expedition for the Radiance Crystals, and Wash Buckler, along with Pop Fizz and Stealth Elf quickly took action to aid the Mabu.

During the battle, the three Skylanders were forced to handle the trolls on their own due to the other Skylanders currently defending parts of Skylands elsewhere. Things soon turned for the worse when the Doom Raider Wolfgang arrived, causing the Skylanders, including Wash Buckler, to feel threatened and outmatched as they weren't prepared to tackle both a Troll army and a Doom Raider. Before Wolfgang could begin his attack, the Trap Masters, Snap Shot and Wallop, arrived in time to help their comrades. With their combined efforts, they defeated Wolfgang and drove off the Trolls, saving the Mabu expedition. Both the Skylanders and the Trap Masters are praised by the Mabu leader for their efforts in saving the Mabu, but soon came to notice that the Fork of Infinite Resonance was stolen by the Trolls, causing the Skylanders to ponder on what Kaos was up to.

Return of the Dragon King

Wash Buckler was one of the many Skylanders who were summoned to stop Malefor from attacking the Skylanders Academy. Despite their best efforts, they were overwhelmed by the evil dragon, who proceeded to drain the powers of the Skylanders with a crystal to make himself stronger.

Rift into Overdrive

Wash Buckler aided the defense of the Skylanders Academy with Chill, Slam Bam, and Zap as his crew on board his ship. When Kaos arrived with a group of his minions in an all-out war, the Mermasquid and his group fought back as enemies breached his ship. Wash Buckler would gain help in the form of Knight Light and his Skylander flight support, successfully fighting off the first wave of enemies before they were met with Kaos' impossibly huge fleet of airships approaching them.

Gameplay

Wash Buckler can attack by slapping foes with his tentacles as well as shoot ink from them which stuns enemies, his tentacles even allow him to climb walls and steep surfaces easily. He can also use his cutlass to slash at his foes, and his bubble gun to fire bubbles that trap his opponents; and his soul gem allows him to create a watery pirate ship. In Skylanders: Battlecast, Wash Buckler can Rust Gear into Rusted Junk, eat kelp to increase his attack, and paralyze enemies with his ink. His signature Gear is the Mermasquid Buckler, decreasing incoming damage, and his Special Ability is Muckshot, decreasing enemy damage temporarily.

Trivia

  • Wash Buckler is the third pirate character to be on the side of good, the first ones are Dreadbeard and Thumpback .
    • He is also the second pirate character to be a Skylander.
  • Even though Wash Buckler's catchphrase is "Eight Legs and No Pegs", he only has six legs, in-game and toy model.
    • Counting his arms would add up to eight limbs, though.
  • Wash Buckler's name comes from the word "swashbuckler", a synonym for pirate.
  • He resembles Davy Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean.
  • When you put on a different hat for Wash Buckler, it will replace his usual hat. The same goes for Rattle Shake. However, his red bandana remains on his head while either his original hat or another is placed.
  • Wash Buckler is the second Skylander to have more than four limbs (the first is Slam Bam and the third is Spy Rise).
  • He is the first Skylander to hold two different weapons that doesn't include a shield.
  • His moustache is a pair of tentacles, complete with suction cups.
    • He also has suction cups on the tips of his "fingers".
  • He is voiced by John DiMaggio who is very prominent for portraying Bender from Futurama, Jake from Adventure Time, Dr. Drakken and Motor Ed from Kim Possible.
    • John also provided the voice of Wallop.
  • He and Spy Rise are the only SWAP Force Skylanders with more than two legs.
    • They are also the SWAP Force Skylanders who have Climb Abilities.
  • He is the second Water Skylander to come with a console starter pack; the first being Gill Grunt for Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, and the third being Snap Shot for Skylanders: Trap Team.
    • He is also the first to do so as a non-core Skylander.
  • As seen in the Can of Kelp card in Skylanders: Battlecast, Wash Buckler apparently eats and is strengthed by kelp, not unlike the cartoon character Popeye who likes and is strengthed by spinach.
    • Interestingly, he is the only member of the SWAP Force to be featured in Battlecast.
  • He makes a cameo in Skylanders Academy episode, Power Struggle during Master Eon's flashback. Oddly enough, he seems to be siding with Strykore.
