Adaptational Intelligence: Crash, in his appearance in the Skylanders Academy Netflix series, is Suddenly Voiced, this time with a proper Awesome Aussie accent, and he is much more intelligent as well.However, his relaxation tends to be interrupted by another world domination plot by Doctor Neo Cortex, forcing Crash to once again defeat him in order to put his life back in order. Nowadays, he attempts to live a quiet life on the Wumpa Islands.
He eventually stole Cortex's airship, defeated Doctor Cortex, and escaped alongside Tawna. To rescue her, Crash traveled through the Wumpa Islands, defeating Cortex's henchmen along the way. However, when Cortex's mind-controlling Cortex Vortex failed to work on Crash, he ran away from the castle, and Cortex planned to use the next test subject: the female bandicoot named Tawna. Once an ordinary bandicoot, he was snatched from the wild by Doctor Neo Cortex and subjected to the Evolvo-Ray as part of Cortex's plan to make Crash the general of his "Cortex Commandos", which would be used to dominate the world. Coco Depending on the Writer is only sane by comparison, and may suffer the occasional role reversal, but even for her the default is that she has a genius IQ compared to Crash or Crunch.Ī genetically advanced Eastern Barred Bandicoot and inhabitant of the Wumpa Islands. Women Are Wiser: Generally, the female bandicoots are nearly always at least relatively more normal, competent and serious thinking than the males by miles.Town Girls: Coco is a neither, the original Tawna is a femme, and the alternate Tawna is a butch.The Flashback Tapes reveal that Coco was chosen to take his place after he escaped, only to escape herself. Super Soldier: Crash was created to be a soldier in Cortex's army of anthropomorphized animals, and was chosen to be the general of his army.Coco zigzags in and out with this depending on design, though is still always more human-like than the male bandicoots. Sexy Dimorphism: While Crash and Crunch are more fully Funny Animals with minimal human traits besides being upright and having hands, the female bandicoots tend to have far more humanoid and less cartoony designs, often with very slender and feminine proportioning.Seldom-Seen Species: If you even know what a bandicoot is, it's probably because of Crash and his friends.Secret Project Refugee Family: Though it doesn't come up very much in the series, the Bandicoots (namely Crash and Coco, and later Crunch) are this since they were all created by Cortex to aid him in world conquest only to turn against him and thwart his plans time and time again.Pantsless Males, Fully-Dressed Females: Played With in that the males are shirtless instead of pantsless: all of the male bandicoots (plus Evil Crash) are shirtless while all of the female bandicoots are fully clothed from neck to toe.Nitro-Fueled's expansion of Tawna and the Nitro Girls: the dorky Megumi and The Lad-ette Ami are the Nice, Attention Whore Liz and Hair-Trigger Temper Isabella are the Mean, with Tawna as the Deadpan Snarker but ultimately team-player In-Between.Crunch becomes soft hearted Dumb Muscle and thus Nice, Coco, now more of a Bratty Half-Pint, is Mean, while Crash is still a Cloudcuckoo Lander and In-Between. In the Radical games however, the personalities and dynamic are tweaked somewhat. Usually, Cheerful Child Coco is Nice, Boisterous Bruiser Crunch is Mean and Cloud Cuckoo Lander Crash is In-Between.Flashback tapes in It's About Time show that N. Informed Species: They don't particularly resemble real bandicoots.The alternate Tawna in It's About Time has blue streaks in her hair, a blue scarf and blue jeans, and she's as heroic as they come.Isabella's main colour is also blue and she's protected by Aku Aku in Nitro-Fueled, thus making her this too.Crash himself drives a blue-coloured kart in Crash Team Racing, and in Nitro Kart, four of them (Crash, Coco, Crunch and Fake Crash) all drive blue-coloured karts and are good guys (Fake Crash himself is a Wild Card, though).Crash and Coco both wear blue pants and are the main heroes of the series.
