Trivia

  • In Spyro's biography in Skylanders, it mentions that Spyro came from "a rare line of magical purple dragons". This is a reference to the Purple Dragon of Legend prophecy that occured only in the Legend of Spyro series.
    • His biography also mentions that 'he has been on many exciting adventures', which references Classic Spyro's adventures in the original Spyro series.
  • Although his second promotional art shows Spyro's claws are white respectively, in the final version of the game, they are yellow.
  • Even though he was designed by Tom Hester, the character designer of Shrek, Spyro's design in Skylanders is widely hated by the majority of the Spyro fanbase, who wanted Spyro to stay true to either his Classic design or his Legend of Spyro design.
  • Unlike his Classic and Legend counterpart, Spyro's eyes are red, and not purple.
    • He also has a forked tongue in Skylanders, which is a traditional feature in dragons of folklore and other adaptions, although so far, he is only shown to have a forked tongue in his CGI look.
  • In Skylanders, Spyro has his wings folded against his body when they're not in use, while his Classic and Legend counterpart always keeps their wings open during most occasions.
  • Like his Classic counterpart, Spyro has charging and flaming as his main attacks.
  • While Spyro's CGI version and toy form have two colors on his wings (with purple on top and completely yellow underneath), his in-game version doesn't possess that detail.
