The Mighty Pups are a team of dog superheroes from the TV show "Paw Patrol". They made their first appearance in the Paw Patrol 44-minute full-length special episode "Mighty Pups".
Origins[]
When a spaceship that Mayor Humdinger was planning to fly into space so that he could be the first mayor on the moon takes off without him and crashes into a passing meteor, the meteor comes plummeting down to Earth and crash lands on the beach in Adventure Bay. The Paw Patrol, who were on the scene to clear the streets before the meteor came crashing down, and Harold Humdinger, Mayor Humdinger's nephew who was on hand to help his uncle fly into space, investigated the glowing rock, but then got blasted by the meteor's powerful energy! This resulted in both Harold and the pups getting super powers. With their new powers from the recently dubbed "Mighty Meteor", the Paw Patrol became The Mighty Pups!
After they regained their powers in the debut episode of Mighty Pups: Super Paws, they also gained new vehicles for when they're sent out individually on missions and a Quinjet looking aircraft called The Mighty Jet for when they all have to go airborne. They soon gained new team members in the form of golden retriever siblings, Ella and Tuck, who helped them take down a villain known as Ladybird by getting super powers of their own, which ended up with them becoming the Mighty Twins. When they fought the Copycat on the debut episode of "Mighty Pups, Super Paws; Pups Vs the Copycat", they got a hover feature for their vehicles to get to the top of Copycat's tower as well as extra powers.
They ultimately, but temporarily, lost their powers when Harold, Ladybird, and Copycat teamed up to steal the Mighty Meteor. However, with just one fragment of the meteor, they managed to stop the trio of villains and retrieve the Meteor.
Villains/Enemies[]
Team Members and Powers[]
- Chase: When Ryder is busy, Chase takes the helm as leader of the Mighty Pups. Chase has the ability of super speed, much like Flash, Dash and Quicksilver. However, he has a gadget that no other character with super speed has, a parachute that he can deploy to help him slow down and stop. In the Super Charged episodes, his charged up ability is a super powered bark.
- Marshall: Thanks to the meteor, instead of putting out fires, he can create heat with his paws, much like Firestorm. But when a fire needs to be put out, he can use his bubble pack to save the day from going up in smoke. In the Super Charged episodes, his charged up ability is being able to jump to incredible heights, much like Superman and Supergirl. In the Mighty Movie, instead of just creating heat with his paws, Marshall could actually create fireballs, much like Human Torch.
- Rubble: Thanks to the meteor, Rubble can now be able to lift heavy objects with both super strength and his strong claw, much like Hulk and Mr. Incredible. However, in the Mighty Movie, that power was replaced with a power that served as his charged up ability, which is being able to turn into an animated wrecking ball, similar to Armadylan from PJ Masks.
- Rocky: Because of the meteor, Rocky can create energy constructs, mostly of tools, with his paws, very similar to Green Lantern. In the Super Charged episodes, his charged up ability is X-ray vision, similar to Superman, Supergirl and Olga Mesmer. However, in the Mighty Movie, his super power is magnetic manipulation, much like Magneto, Zebra Man and Dr. Polaris, allowing him to lift any metal object.
- Skye: Because of the meteor, Skye has the ability to fly on a whirlwind instead of having to use her jet pack. But to control herself in mid-air, she uses her Wind Rider Wings, making her a combination of Red Tornado and Angel. In the Super Charged episodes, her charged up ability is the power to control the weather, much like Storm. However, in the Mighty Movie, she gained both super strength and the ability to fly, making her much more like Supergirl.
- Zuma: Thanks to the meteor, Zuma can now shoot water from his paws, much like Guppy Girl can from her bracelets, and when he's out on the ocean with his surfboard, he can control the waves, much like Aquaman. In the Super Charged episodes, his charged up ability is to create bubbles to capture and contain living and nonliving things, very similar to Captain Bubble and Bubble Boy. However, in the Mighty Movie, Zuma gained the extra ability to turn into a puddle of water, much like Metamorpho.
- Everest: Due to exposure from the meteor, Everest can now make ice and snow with her breath, much like Iceman and Frozone can with their hands and similar to Superman and Supergirl with their freeze breath.
Occasional Members[]
- Ella and Tuck: After being exposed to the meteor for the first time, Ella gained the ability to grow/expand to giant size much like Giant Man/Ant-Man, and her younger brother Tuck gained the ability to shrink to the size of a mouse or insect, much like Shrinking Violet, Wasp, and Atom. They mostly leap into action when Ladybird is on the loose.
