==Trivia==
 
*Interestingly, on the 3DS version of ''Giants'', Wow Pows aren't listed in the upgrades for any of the Series 2 Skylanders, but the wow pows does exist in-game. In later installments however, descriptions were added.
*On 3DS version of ''Swap Force'' and ''Trap Team'', some Wow Pows are locked from preview and thus requires said figure to unlock, whereas for some Skylanders, their Wow Pows can be previewed right away, regardless of whether the player owns the figures or not.
*Although Dark Spyro has different movesets compared to regular Spyro for the 3DS, their Series 3 Wow Pow are both the same.

Trivia

  • Interestingly, on the 3DS version of Giants, Wow Pows aren't listed in the upgrades for any of the Series 2 Skylanders, but the wow pows does exist in-game. In later installments however, descriptions were added.
  • On 3DS version of Swap Force and Trap Team, some Wow Pows are locked from preview and thus requires said figure to unlock, whereas for some Skylanders, their Wow Pows can be previewed right away, regardless of whether the player owns the figures or not.
  • Although Dark Spyro has different movesets compared to regular Spyro for the 3DS, their Series 3 Wow Pow are both the same.
