Spyro is the main protagonist of the spin-off series, Skylanders Academy. Initially an arrogant and prideful dragon, he overcame his ego to become a full-fledged Skylander with his best friends, Stealth Elf and Eruptor.
Background
Personality
Spyro is a cocky and impulsive young dragon who is eager to show off his skills and jump into danger without thinking ahead. In his series debut, he was very egotistical, always thinking of himself and filled with overconfidence. At one point, he thought about naming his Skylander team "Team Spyro" or just "Spyro". After failing the Skylander Games, and his fight with Kaos, Spyro became more humble, relying more on his friends and teammates, but retains his ego.
Biography
That purple blur that just whizzed past your eyes and blew the papers off your desk isn’t your imagination playing tricks on you – it’s Spyro, maybe the greatest Skylander of all time. And this cocky hero would be the first to tell you that! But there’s no denying this is one awesome dragon. Who else can breathe fire, fly like an acrobat through the air, and tell a joke all at the same time? That’s some serious multi-tasking! When the cards are stacked against you, you want a friend like Spyro on your side – because he’ll jump right into danger without thinking twice. He probably won’t even think once! Which might explain why he finds himself in over his head more than he’d care to admit. Could a Skylander this impulsive really be the "Chosen One" like Master Eon believes? Only one way to find out...
Abilities
Like most dragons, Spyro holds the ability to breathe fire and fly using his wings.
Story
History
Spyro first appeared in the series debut as an orphan hatchling born on a remote island in Skylands. Shortly after his birth, he was found and threatened by a three Greebles who planned on eating him. To the surprise of his attackers, he was able to defeat the creatures with his strength and newly-learned firebreath. Young Spyro's efforts was observed by Master Eon, who adopted and raised Spyro, convinced that he was destined for greatness. Years later, Spyro became friends with fellow cadets, Stealth Elf and Eruptor. Eon's constant praise on Spyro's talents boosted the dragon's pride, egotistical behavior and disregard for fire safety, which was fueled even further when Spyro received the highest score in the Skylanders Admissions Test ever.
Season 1
In response to Spyro's barely passing grades at Skylanders Academy, Master Eon talked with Spyro that he needs to put his over-inflated ego aside and his efforts in school would not be enough for him to pass the final test at the Skylander Games. Spyro however was confident that he would ace the Games and become a Skylander. Instead of practicing for the event, Spyro threw himself a "graduation party" at his house and partied until he was the only partygoer remaining. The young dragon overslept as a result, nearly missing the Skylander Games. He arrived at the stadium just as Master Eon was about to end the ceremony, but his ego affected his perfomance. While Stealth Elf, Eruptor, and Bad Breath passed the final test, Spyro was one of the two other cadets that failed, much to his shock and disappointment.
Relationships
Crash Bandicoot
In the episode "Crash Landing", Spyro develops an admiration for Crash, not only fawning over him, but going so far as to try to dress like him and even copy his moves (which hilariously fail). His apparent admiration was even called out by the Chompy Mage as a man crush. Crash was either oblivious to this, or simply chose to ignore it.
