In ''Giants'', the Skylanders were only acknowledged as "Series 2", whereas in ''Swap Force'' and ''Trap Team'', every revised Skylanders released for these games received additional names for them.
In ''Giants'', the Skylanders were only acknowledged as "Series 2", whereas in ''Swap Force'' and ''Trap Team'', every revised Skylanders released for these games received additional names for them.
==Notes==
*When placing a Series 3 or Series 4 Skylanders into previous games, they will have their older Wow Pows available instead of their current ones. Placing them back to their respective current game will revert them back to their default Wow Pow.
*While LightCore Skylanders and Eon's Elites are revised characters from their original, they do not possess Wow Pows and should not be confused with the Series revisions.
*Some Wow Pows are slightly altered in the 3DS version due to different movesets compared to consoles.<br />
