Pumpkin King

*"When it's Halloween, I want to create an Army of Pumpkins to take over the world. So I need your power, to help me accomplish my task."*
―The Pumpkin King to Sonic[src]
The **Pumpkin King** is the overlord of the Pumpkin Dimension. Discovering the existence of *JSP*, the Pumpkin King sought to battle them, so he developed plans to create an army of pumpkins on Halloween to take over the world with. The Pumpkin King teleported Sonic to his underworld, hoping to utilize his powers to help him proceed with his plan. Unfortunately, Sonic refused to let the Pumpkin King provoke his plan, convincing him to battle Sonic, plus his teammates, Laser and Static, who he teleported to his dimension to join the battle. The Pumpkin King was unfortunately defeated by *JSP*, causing him to be reduced to nothing more than just a head with a high pitch chipmunk voice. Having promised to spare *JSP* if he lost, the Pumpkin King kept his promise by using his powers to send *JSP* back to their universe.

## History

### Monarch of the Pumpkin Dimension

*"Where the heck am I?"
"You're in my world."
"Who are you and what am I doing here!?"
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am, the Pumpkin King. And I brought you here to help me."*
―Sonic and the Pumpkin King[src]

Within the Pumpkin Dimension, the Pumpkin King learnt of *JSP*, a team of powerful Metahumans that inhabited Earth. The Pumpkin King became impressed with their crime-combating skills, to the point that he decided to battle them himself. Hoping to be recognized by *JSP*, the Pumpkin King developed plans to create an army of pumpkins on Halloween night, and use them to take over the world. Concluding that he required Sonic's powers, the Pumpkin King teleported Sonic to his dystopian underworld, explaining to him his scheme. While the Pumpkin King urged Sonic to collaborate with him, Sonic refused, prompting the Pumpkin King to try and take Sonic's powers by force. Using his powers, the Pumpkin King battled Sonic, but his opponent managed to beat him.

### Battling *JSP*

*"Such confidence. If I win, I get to take over the world. If you win, you get to go back to where you came from."*
―The Pumpkin King to *JSP*[src]

The Pumpkin King became impressed by how powerful Sonic was, but claimed that he still expected more of a challenge, so Sonic requested the Pumpkin King to bring his teammates, Laser and Static, to the Pumpkin Dimension. Believing their powers could also help out with his plan, the Pumpkin King decided to go with Sonic's idea. The Pumpkin King teleported Laser and Static to the Pumpkin Dimension, but when the Pumpkin King tried to explain to them who he was, he was constantly interrupted by Laser, causing the Pumpkin King to become upset with his juvenile behaviour. The Pumpkin King then compromised with *JSP*, saying that if they won, then they'd be spared and sent back to their universe.

The Pumpkin King then teleported *JSP* to a more hellish location to begin their battle. The Pumpkin King sought to vaporize the members of *JSP* with an orange plasmaball, but the group instantly dodged the projectile. *JSP* started to battle the Pumpkin King, who used his powers to get even with his opponents. While in midair, the Pumpkin King continued to be bullied by Sonic, who he tried to stop but couldn't because of his superspeed. Sonic then violently pushed the Pumpkin King back down to the ground, causing him to mysteriously disappear. *JSP* were then teleported back to the pumpkin wasteland, much to their confusion.

### Conceding

*"I never wanted to take over the world. All I wanted was to fight for fun."
"It's okay, I understand. If you ever wanna fight again, just let me know."*
―The Pumpkin King and Sonic[src]

The Pumpkin King ultimately had himself reduced to just his head, being provided with a chipmunk voice. There, the Pumpkin King decided to concede, admitting that *JSP* were truly more powerful than him. Keeping his promise, the Pumpkin King unleashed a portal to Earth, leading the members of *JSP* to head back home. Before leaving, Laser bullied the Pumpkin King, calling him a baby. This led the Pumpkin King to throw a tantrum by violently kicking Laser in the leg. The Pumpkin King then told the truth to Sonic that he just really wanted to fight them for fun. Sonic understood, and told the Pumpkin King to let him know if he ever wanted to fight again, before leaving. The Pumpkin King continued to believe that the members of *JSP* were pretty cool, until Laser came back out the portal to kick him away as payback for kicking him earlier.
