[1] The series is about the adventures of 4 juvenile capoeira practitioners with the mission to protect the city of Nova Nizza from attack by mystical creatures from another dimension called "Divinos".

[2] The Combo Niños have the ability to transform into mystical beings in anthropomorphic animal form by touching one of the totems that appear on the creatures.

The series takes place in an environment similar to Latin American countries, but especially Peru, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and Mexico.

In addition, some characters play a sport called Novanoc that parodies the ancient game of the Mayans, the pok-ta-pok.
