Sidekicks are miniature versions of Skylanders and Giants in the Skylanders series. The games treat Sidekicks as if they were Magic Items. In Skylanders: Trap Team, the Sidekicks became playable Minis. Each share the same abilities and upgrades as their normal counterparts.
Biography
Within the Skylands, a realm of infinite possibilities, there is in fact an alternate reality known as the Skylands Miniverse. Everything there is smaller, including the Skylanders. The Skylander Sidekicks come from that Miniverse and have come traveled to the Skylands to meet their regular-sized alter egos and tag along with them on their adventures![1]
Usage
When placed on the Portal of Power, a sidekick figure will appear in the game, following you around. It is proven that sidekicks can block projectiles without taking damage, though getting them in the way of the projectiles takes either luck, or serious skill.
