Trivia
- Dark Spyro combines aspects of his original incarnation from The Legend of Spyro and his canon counterpart:
- His appearance is (nearly) the same as his canon counterpart.
- Like his original incarnation from the console version of The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, he speaks with a more sinister voice; but, unlike in that instance, instead of speaking in a darker version of his normal voice, his voice (actor) changes completely.
- His new voice actor is Jason Ritter, best known for voicing Dipper Pines from Gravity Falls.
- His voice actor change in this form was made with the intent to sell a Spyro with a similar appearance and personality, but with an uncanny feeling that it's not quite the same person.[1]
