Paladore was a wizard who taught Papa Smurf everything he knew about magic. He was trapped in stone about 500 years before the events of "The Smurfs' Time Capsule", wherein he summoned Papa Smurf to gather the items stored in a time capsule that were needed to battle the leader of the druids, who, along with his own people were trapped within a haunted tree.
Trivia[]
- One fan theory is that Paladore raised Papa Smurf when he was just a Smurfling, after Grandpa Smurf left for his 500-year journey for the four primal elements to replenish the Long Life Stone with, until Papa became old enough to take care of himself and a few Smurflings of his own. This would make Paladore Papa Smurf's foster father while his real one was away.
