Joker's main vehicle is the Joker Van. The van was brought to life with a stolen Bat Mother Board by Badcomputer and Crash. Badcomputer called all the villain vehicles brought to life his Legion of Zoom and sent them to steal the Batcomputer. At Gotham Amusement Mile, they were opposed by the Batwheels. Prank tricked Batwing into flying into some dangling lights. In the rematch battle, Bam slipped up Prank with some balls from a throwing game and he drove right into the strength test. During a heist at Gotham Central Bank, Red disobeyed Bam again and followed but rolled over a soda can and revealed their presence to Prank. Prank ejected a barrel of prop dentures then Bam fell prey to a power draining joy buzzer but Red was still following him and removed it. With the Bat-Link, they became turbo charged and caught up. They went after Prank together and performed the alley oop Red used to win a game of tag in the Batcave. Red applied the joy buzzer to Prank and immobilized him.

While Batman and Robin surfed after Joker at Gotham Point, Bam and Redbird battled Prank with beach balls. Prank blinded Bam with a bursty ball then rained pool noodles down on Redbird. Prank later tried to flood Gotham City by sending giant Joker balloons filled with water from Gotham Docks. Batman restrained his tires at Amusement Park unaware he was the culprit. After Batman refused to a street race with the Joker, Bam went to prove Batman wasn't scared and found Prank at the Hall of Mirrors in Amusement Mile. Prank took the lead with his drag racing mode. With no other choice, Bam used his Bat Booster but he drove through some shipping containers at Gotham Docks and came out covered in glue, a cone on his hood, and a foam finger stuck to his roof. Prank then modified the Gotham Docks into a race course that he called "Pranks' Super Sweet Showdown Supreme." Bam ignored Batcomputer and the other Batwheels and went to challenge Prank again.

Prank anticipated it and called a tip to a news station to televise the race. At the end of the track, Bam realized the loop-de-loop ended too close to the edge of the pier and activated his tire grip to stop himself. Prank kept going and won but was unable to stop and went off the edge of the pier. Bam fired his Bat-Winger and reeled him back before he landed in the harbor. Prank was stunned Bam saved him but kept trying to goad him but Bam left the docks. The reporter commended "Batman" on taking the high road. Prank's role in the Supermanium heist was to throw pies at the Batwheels and blind them. The Legion of Zoom stole the Supermanium at the Gotham Docks but they fought over it instead of delivering it to Badcomputer. Jestah took off with it but she was defeated by the Batwheels and they took back the Supermanium. The rest of the Zoomers pretended to leave her in the street with her wheels locked but they came back after she apologized.

During the Annual Gotham Grand Prix, Prank attempted to detour Bam off the race track but he returned towards the end of the race and tricked the rest of the Legion into taking each other out with their own cheats until Bam and Prank were the only contestants left. Prank tried driving Bam into the rails but Bam braked and used his turbo to get ahead of Prank at the last second and win the grand prize trophy. Prank whined over the loss and to add insult to injury, one of his bursty balls rolled over and covered him in glitter. The Legion was dispatched to ambush and capture the Batwheels after draining their power then kidnap Batcomputer. Four Batwheels were ambushed at Gotham Central Park. Prank's giant buzzer drained their power. They were taken to Gotham Docks. Jestah noticed Bam was missing. They voted to head to the Batcave and overpower Bam. The Legion dodged Bam's spin move attack and he was blinded by Prank's confetti.

A.D.A.M. intervened but Snowy eventually froze one of his tires. He advised the Legion to turn themselves into the authorities. The Legion was amused. A.D.A.M. used a buzz saw and Bam used a small laser to destroy the ice on the former's wheel. They agreed to combine their moves to win. A.D.A.M. towed Bam and spun him around, alternating attacks, and knocked each Zoomer into a shipping container. The Legion of Zoom stole the Rumble Ray from S.T.A.R. Labs in a bid to bring down the Batcave with shockwaves. Bibi swiftly took out Jestah and Prank with jump kicks. Bam recovered the Rumble Ray and blasted the Legion down into the Gotham Point beach. While Batgirl and Nightwing chased Joker and Harley Quinn, Bibi and Nightbike chased Prank and Jestah. They continued littering the streets with peels but Bibi and Nightbike countered by performing wheelies to avoid them then jumped from roof to roof of several vehicles. Prank and Jestah took to the highway. Bibi and Nightbike fired their grappler chain and Batrope from below at the same time and were left hanging from the light pole. They tried teamwork like Batgirl and Nightwing and launched themselves in front of Prank and Jestah. They were tied up together.

Ducky, Jestah, and Prank fought over a stuffed unicorn in Parkham. Badcomputer scolded the Zoomers for playing with a toy. The Zoomers tugged at the unicorn and it popped out of their grasp atop a junk pile. Ace was sent into the yard. He found the unicorn but he dropped it and grabbed a tennis ball instead. The Zoomers continued fighting over it. Bam distracted the Zoomers by pretending to be a pizza delivery car while Buff lowered Redbird into the yard with his winch. Jestah realized they were cars so they didn't eat pizza. Bam lied he was at the wrong address and left. They saw Redbird. Prank hit him with confetti. The unicorn landed on a junk pile. Redbird performed his back flip, snatched the unicorn, and narrowly exited the yard just as Buff lowered a train car in front of the entrance. The Zoomers found a singing teddy bear but Badcomputer scolded them again and repeated super villains don't play with toys.

Prank stole Bouncealodium from S.T.A.R. Labs Gotham and made a giant bouncy ball with it to terrorize the city. Bam heard the alarm and chased Prank into a dead-end but got his tires turned into bouncy balls. Prank made his giant bouncy ball and unleashed it at Gotham Amusement Mile. Bam grappled himself to it and steered it towards Gotham Harbor instead. Prank was rammed along the way and he was encased in a goop ball. He was taken away on a flatbed. Prank and the other Zoomers were sent to steal the Batcomputer while she was being transported to Star City. Bam rallied in the Bat Big Rig. He knocked Prank onto his own boulder and the others bound him to it. Ducky and Prank were the first Zoomers to encounter the T-Rex Robot. On the road to Gotham Point, they encountered the robot, were scared, turned around and drove in the opposite direction. The Legion of Zoom later stole the T-Rex Robot in a bid to steal Batcomputers' motherboard but Bam opposed them in the giant Ulti-Bat robot. Badcomputer countered with the Ulti-Bad but the Zoomer's teamwork was short-lived and they were forced to retreat.

Ducky fired his Force Field Flinger and trapped the Batwheels in the Batcave. However, Bam happened to be at Gotham Central Park to invite Grundy, Goldie, Kitty, and Nightbike to a party. The impromptu team was able to steal the Flinger. In Bibi's Wizard of Oz dream, Prank was one of the Wicked Witch's flying monkeys. On Christmas Eve, Santa Claus was attacked by Prank near Gotham Central Bank. Prank stole his bag of presents and broke the sleigh. Bam happened to be on patrol, launched Prank away, and returned the bag to Santa. While Moe tried to fix the sleigh, the Batwheels helped Santa deliver presents in the city but they were soon robbed by the Legion of Zoom. Santa and the Batwheels were trapped in a giant present that cut off their connection to Batcomputer. Knowing his radio would pick it up, Santa urged the Batwheels to sing a Christmas carol as loud as they could with great spirit. Moe heard them on the sleigh's radio and took off to find them. They defeated the Legion of Zoom on the Gotham Expressway, tied them in Christmas lights with a big bow, and finished delivering presents in record time.

The Legion of Zoom lured the Batwheels to a trap they set at the Gotham Docks when Batman, Robin, and Batgirl were preoccupied with missions. Prank suggested using a magnet. As they anticipated, Batcomputer alerted the Batwheels that the Legion illegally boarded a ship at the docks. The Batwheels investigated the ship. Jestah threw a switch and the Batwheels were immobilized by a giant magnet. Moe pretended to be Batman and fought the Legion in the Bat Armor outside Wayne Manor. He managed to manipulate the Legion into hitting each other but Jestah recognized the voice. She pulled the bat icon from the armor's chest and revealed Moe. Moe caved to the pressure and retreated back into the Batcave. Bam advised him to be himself and make traps using gadgets. Moe started to believe himself and set traps all around the cave. When the Legion entered the Batcave, they were immediately ejected by the first trap.

They re-entered. Quizz was hit by a big confetti ball, Ducky was launched into the giant Joker card, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex was dropped on Snowy and Prank. Jestah went for Batcomputer's motherboard but Moe drove her away with a training car armed with plungers. She got stuck in the Bat-Wash. The Batwheels returned with the giant magnet and used it on the Legion then dropped them into the ocean. On Badcomputer's orders, Prank ambushed Bibi and Batwing at Amusement Mile with his goop cannon with the goal of stealing Batcomputer's new megascreen. Batwing felt she was useless with her power boosters offline. Bibi got an idea and had Batwing blow a giant bubble from the goop with a rotor. Bibi hit it at Prank. Batwing realized her wings were good for more than just flying.

Meet the Batwheels: Prank when on a spree tagging the city with graffiti. Bam followed and cleaned up after him and caught up to him in Gotham Central Park. Prank was about to paint the Batman statue. Bam leaped in front of the statue at the last second and took the paint instead then fired wheel locks on Prank. Crash and the Legion of Zoom were tasked with stealing the Batmobile. Crash sneaked into the Batcave and stole Batman's cowl then activated the Bat-Tracker at the Wayne Enterprises parking garage. As expected, Batcomputer tried to hail Batman but got no response so she dispatched the Batwheels. During Plan Keep Away, Prank hit Bibi with his boxing glove and snatched the frozen Bat Cowl but got locked in a shed.
