Lobbo is a robot that lives in the Crossroads. He is the owner of Lobbo's Totally Rad Arcade, Lobbo-Lobbo and the co-host of Crossroads' Crosstalk.

History

Background

Lobbo lived in a realm parallel to Ninjago with his mother, with whom he had a complex relationship with, they frequently played the game "Whack-a-Lobbo", which involved his mother hitting him in the head. Lobbo also had a girlfriend, who broke up with him due to his emotional unavailability. After the Merge, Lobbo moved to the Crossroads, either going there by choice or losing his original home.

Dragons Rising, Season 1

The Merge: Part 1

Lobbo partook in the Mech Master 5000 to prove to his mother of his capabilities. Although he was at last place for most of the race, Lobbo managed to pass the racers that had their mechs destroyed and eventually won the race, due to Arin and Sora forfeiting to save Riyu, and Kreel having her mech hit by a panel caused by the little dragon's escape.

Crossroads Carnival

At the Crossroads Carnival, Lobbo was buying Moss-milk Ice Cones and giving his prize money away to random people before Kreel had the Whack Rats kidnap him, wanting the money to pay Dorama for her friend, Targle's freedom, but he immediately swallowed it to prevent her from doing so. Arin and Sora manage to get Kreel to leave Lobbo alone by rescuing Targle with help from their master, Lloyd. When they return, Kreel is seen to be giving Lobbo advice on his failed relationship.

Wyldly Inappropriate

Lobbo participates in Zane Day's Zane-alike contest, wearing a Zane wig, unaware that the real Zane was also participating. In the first round, his impersonation was well received by the judges, except the security bot judge. During the second round, Lobbo gets a low score when he tries to throw ice cubes, but they get stuck in his hands. In an effort to get them out, he accidentally hits Zane with one, throwing off his aim that caused him to accidentally hit the Emcee. In the final found, Lobbo creates a fireworks display in a toaster, earning a high score. In the end, Lobbo won the contest while Zane was dead last.

The Power Within

The citizens of the Crossroads were seeking shelter from the MergeQuake Storm when Lobbo was hit by flying debris, lifting him toward a MergeQuake. Lobbo cried out, urging everyone to never forget him. Fortunately, Sora came to the rescue and saved Lobbo from certain danger.

The Elemental Mechs

What the Mech?

Lobbo made his way to Kreel's Junkyard, where he stumbled upon a device that had been transported to Ninjago. He had the idea of repurposing it as an end table, but while he was playing with the device, it activated. The energy from the device merged with Lobbo's body, causing a drastic transformation and fueling him with uncontrollable rage. Lobbo proceeded to wreak havoc and overpower the ninja. To restrain Lobbo, Sora devised a plan and constructed three mechs, while also attempting to extract the absorbed energy. Fortunately, the plan succeeded, resulting in Lobbo losing his memory of the events that transpired. Oblivious to his involvement in the chaos, Lobbo departed from the junkyard, believing he had no connection to the turmoil.

Dragons Rising, Season 2

The Blood Moon (screen)

Lobbo ends up stuck in his mech when it runs amok in Ninjago City before Arin and Lloyd get him out, and Sora turns the mech into a DJ set, initiating a dance party. After thanking Lloyd, Kai, Zane, and Nya, Lobbo joins the dance floor.

Dragons Rising, Season 3

The Missing

Lobbo was wandering through the Crossroads when he unexpectedly spotted Sora taking over Arin's pie deliveries, as Arin had gone missing. Sora offered him one of the pies she had baked. Thankful, Lobbo took a bite, but as soon as he tasted it, his system began to malfunction, shutting down because the pie was poorly made.

The Spectral Lands

Lobbo greeted Nya, Kai, and Wyldfyre when they entered his arcade and briefly showed them the various attractions of his enterprise, including the games and an all-you-can-eat casserole table. He was later seen refilling one of the casserole dishes and briefly offered some to Nya, explaining that it was a "tuna gelatin casserole with mints."

I Alone Can Save Them

Lobbo was sweeping the floor of his arcade when the ninja received word that the City of Temples was under attack.

The Shatter Dragon

Lobbo was eating pie at the party after Thunderfang's defeat.
