Shroomboom was most unfortunate to have been born in a pizza topping garden belonging to Kaos. Growing up among his fellow fungi, he knew it was only a matter of time before a late night craving would bring about their demise. So Shroomboom took a twig and a strand of spider web and made a slingshot. One by one, he launched all of his friends over the garden fence before flinging himself over to join them. Then he guided them all to the edge of the island and leapt to freedom, using his mushroom cap to catch a friendly breeze. Now as a member of the Skylanders, Shroomboom continues to perform courageous deeds…but he can be hard to find on pizza night.
Basic Attack Notes
Slingshot
Lob attack that bounces around until contacting a target, or three seconds pass.
Mushroom Ring
Shroomboom can pass between mushrooms without destroying them, even with Self-Slingshot.
Launch Paratroopers
Hold Attack 3 to launch rapidly, but walk slowly.
Upgrade Paths
Barrier Boost
The Barrier Boost Path turns Mushroom Ring into a powerful defensive tool, and Shroomboom into a tough nut to crack. He can Launch Paratroopers or use Self-Slingshot without removing the barrier. When every upgrade is active, Shroomboom can remain safely behind a large ring of mushrooms that emit a damaging cloud, and even escape underground should the need arise.
Paramushroom Promotion
The Paramushroom Promotion Path boosts Launch Paratroopers and gives Slingshot an extra, explosive kick. Go with this path if you prefer to play Shroomboom on the move. You’re surrendering significant defensive upgrades, so be aggressive. You need to overwhelm enemies, so fill the area with Paratroopers and bouncing, exploding mushrooms.
Soul Gem Ability
Self-Slingshot: 4000
Hold Attack 1 to slingshot Shroomboom towards enemies.
The old command (press Attack 2 while holding Attack 1) brings up the Self-Slingshot quicker (and the mushrooms from High Spore!) if you’re in a rush. There’s no delay for firing Shroomboom, either. As soon as the slingshot appears, he’s ready to go.

Wow Pow!
High Spore!: 5000
Hold Attack 1 to create mushroom bumpers and play pinball with enemies. Prerequisite: Self-Slingshot
The mushroom bumpers appear close to Shroomboom’s location, so you need to lure enemies in close to use High Spore!. Blue mushrooms are good for two bounces, yellow mushrooms for one.
