Xiaolin Showdown is an American animated television series that aired on Kids WB and was created by Christy Hui. Set in a world where Martial Arts battles and Eastern Magic are common place, the series follows four young warriors in training that battle the forces of evil. They do this by protecting Shen Gong Wu (ancient artifacts that possess great magical powers) from villains (witches, mad scientists, evil warlords) that would use them to conquer the world.
Originally airing on the Kids WB! block of programming on WB Network in 2003, the series ran for 3 seasons and 52 episodes. Typical episodes revolve around a specific Shen Gong Wu being revealed which results in both sides racing to find it. Episodes usually reach a head when one good and one evil character must challenge each other to a magical duel called a Xiaolin Showdown for possession of the artifact.
The "Dragon of Earth" is named Clay.
The Dragon of Fire is named Kimiko. The Asian character 'ko' (shaped like a 'k' with a line at the side) means 'fire'.
The name of the Dragon of Wind is Raimundo. 'Rai' means 'Thunder' in Japanese, and through Season Two of the show Raimundo's main attack is called 'Typhoon Boom' and sounds like Thunder.
The 'Fountain of Hui' is named after Christy Hui, who is credited as creator of the show.
