Elfa Strike is a superhero team of elves employed by Santa Claus and called into action whenever Christmas is threatened.
History
In "Operation: N.A.U.G.H.T.Y.", they were tricked into fighting Sector V for the Reindeer System, who had been framed by the Delightful Children from Down the Lane but they realized it was a Secret Santa Surprise Reindeer Monkey. This particular Rainbow Monkey doll was only available at the Rainbow Monkey Superstore on Christmas Eve, meaning that Sector V couldn't have been at the North Pole that day if they got one. Numbuh 5 explains they were at the store all day waiting in line to buy the Rainbow Monkey doll. The Nutcracker then wonders if Sector V didn't commit the crime in question, then someone else had the reindeer, realizing that Sector V was innocent, clearing them of all charges.
When the Delightful Children themselves were revealed to be the true culprits, Elfa Strike returned to the North Pole along with Sector V to stop the villains. There, they were confronted by a rival holiday-themed superhero group, the Faculty 4, who represent "Substitute Teacher's Day." After a heated battle, these teachers were subdued and the Elfa Strike and KND succeeded in saving Christmas.
Members
The members of the group parody members of the X-Men (mainly those who were part of Giant Size team/replacement of original team), while the name of the group is a pun on "Alpha Flight," another Marvel Comics superhero team associated with the X-Men Mutants.
- Wintergreen: A tough guy elf with "peppermintium" claws and bones, a parody of Wolverine.
- Nutcracker: A wooden-headed elf with teleportation powers and a nasty bite, a pun on Nightcrawler.
- Snow Angel: A winged elf girl with power over snow after being pelted by a radioactive snowball, based on Storm and Snowbird (and possibly Archangel).
- Coniferous: A rather tall elf with the power to cover his body in pine needles, a reference to Colossus and Beast.
Abilities
While each member has his/her own set of unique abilities, the Elfa Strike's ultimate ability is the "Twelve Days of Christmas Attack". When used, clouds appear overhead and rain down objects from the original song. The Twelve Days of Christmas Attack stacks up 12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers (plumbers) piping, 10 lords a leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a milking, 7 swans a swimming (the swans are swimming in a small pool) 6 geese a laying, 5 golden rings (bags of onion rings), 4 calling birds (in telephone booths), 3 French horns (instead of hens), 2 turtle doves (doves wearing turtle shells), and a partridge (aactually Danny Partridge from The Partridge Family) in a pear tree, on top of the person it is used on. The narrator says that the attack can only be used once in a thousand Christmases.
