Portal Masters simply place the Portal of Power Wireless USB (or Wired USB for 3DS) into their console and turn on the Portal to summon a Skylander. (An install is required for the PC version and online game.) After placing a Skylander's figurine on the Portal, it is summoned into the game. Skylanders can be swapped for other Skylanders as quickly as it takes you to replace the figurine. Data is transferred from the game onto the portal onto the toy, such as learned abilities.

A Portal of Power can also be used as a viewer, giving [[Portal Masters]] the ability to seek out evil doers -- allowing the Skylanders to know exactly where to go.


Little is known about the Portal itself other than its summoning abilities.
In [[Skylands]], the Portal of Power serves as a transport pedestal to take the Skylanders to other areas or distances.
