Story
Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!
Born in the Forgotten Worlds, the Professor arrived in Avalar sometime prior to the events of Ripto's Rage.
In Winter Tundra, he was working on a new Superportal, but disater arives when Hunter inputs a wrong code, bringing Ripto into the world. After the Orbs were scattered around Avalar, the Professor decided to bring a Dragon into the world to flush out Ripto. He, Hunter, and a faun named Elora secretly created a portal in Glimmer. Within time, Spyro comes through, and decides to help them gather the Orbs, which were used to power the portals.
The Professor also appeared in three worlds. In Colossus, an evil spirt has posses ten statues after scaring the Professor. In Zephyr, the Professor has been working on some seeds that will grow into giant plants within seconds. Spyro was able to use these to reach a captured Breezebuilder named Juliet, and help her return to Romeo, a Land Blubber she has fallin in love with. In Mystic Marsh, the Professor has lost his pencil, and it was up to Spyro to trade various items (including a ducking) to re-obtain it.
After Gulp was defeated, the Professor is revealed to have obtained a Power Crystal, hopeing to use it to send Spyro home after Ripto is defeated, but just as things go as planned, Ripto tosses a bomb (that he bought from Moneybags) to send the trio off their feet, before stealing the Power Crystal to be used for his new scepter.
After Ripto was defeated, the Professor activates the Superportal, with the destination set at Dragon Shores. Spyro says his goodbyes to his new friends before leaving with Sparx the Dragonfly.
Spyro: Year of the Dragon
Although he is not seen, it's mentioned by Greta that the Professor is the owner of the rocket in Evening Lake.
The Professor appears in Agent 9's Lab, where he is in need of help, since the Rhynocs have taken over, and a machine has 18 birds nesting inside. He and Elora also met up with Spyro, where it's revealed that the Professor tried to visit the Dragon Realms, but the book he bought was out of date by a thousand years. Agent 9 almost blew a secret Hunter told them, but the Professor was able to distract him by claiming that there was a rhynoc in a bush.
Spyro: A Hero's Tail
The Professor is first seen showing Spyro a video with several gnorcs and Red, and explains that the gnorcs are mining Dark Gems for their leader, and has even allied with Gnasty Gnorc. The Professor then sent Spyro off on his quest, and requested that Spyro visited Moneybags first.
Shortly afterwoods, Spyro reached a device called the Ball Gadget, but it cannot be activated unless eight Power Stars are collected. However, Spyro has no idea on what Power Stars are, and after a few more attempts to find a collectable that will power the gadget, they decided on Light Gems. The Professor then unlocks the door to the Nursery where the Nanny is.
Shortly after Gnasty Gnorc is defeated, the teleporter starts working again, and the Professor allows Spyro to use it, since it can take Spyro to a new realm, unlike the local teleporter that Moneybags has. After ariving in Lost Cities, the Professor explains that the teleporter is still in it's early days and then tells Spyro to visit the elder in the Cloudy Domain.
During the quest, the Professor invents two more Powerups: the Invincibilty Powerup, which needs 24 Light Gems to be activated, and the Supercharge Powerup, which needs 40 Light Gems.
In the Icy Wilderness, the Professor speaks with Spyro again, telling him about an elder that's locked up in the Ice Citadel.
After Red is defeated, he is shown flying over Molten Mount and into a volcano. The Professor has decided that, being a mole, he will enter the underground lab and confront Red himself. However, he is soon captured and forced to create a robotic army out of the Gnorcs. Spyro was able to free the Professor, defeat Mecha-Red, and save the Dragon Realms, once again.
Spyro: Shadow Legacy
The Professor is seen in Moleville along with his nephew, Blink. They are trapped in the Shadow Realms, though Spyro was able to free them.
