Character Development
Krayken was part of the original group of Skylanders designed for Skylanders: ShapeShifters, the game that would eventually become Skylanders: Swap Force. He possessed electrical abilities and had a sentient fish head as his left arm to trap enemies with bubbles, but during kid testing, it was discovered that the character looked unfitting on the franchise, and his bubble mechanic was too confusing as a non-damaging move.[1]
Krayken's design was later scrapped, but his bubble and electrical abilities was implemented into the new SWAP Force leader Wash Buckler and core Skylander Punk Shock[1], and his design was revamped into his sucessor, Rip Tide. Although he never made it into the final game, Krayken made small cameos later in the Skylanders series.
