The Evil Knight Minion is the evil duplicate of Chop Chop and one of Kaos’ minions. In Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, he is the second of three bosses fought at the end of Creepy Citadel, where he and the other two minions must be defeated to collect the Eternal Undead Source. The Evil Knight Minion also appears during the final battle with Kaos at Castle Blackthrone.
Two Evil Knight Minions return in Skylanders: Giants, appearing in the Forgotten Hollows section of the Undead Elemental Gate within Autogyro Adventure.
Abilities
Having identical abilities to Chop Chop, the Evil Knight Minion begins by blocking all incoming attacks with his shield while walking toward the Skylanders. He then swings his sword twice before doing a Arkeyan Cyclone combo attack.
In Giants, unlike their original appearance in Spyro's Adventure, their attack patterns are now coordinated: one will start by slashing twice, while the other follows up with the Arkeyan Cyclone spin attack. They then switch roles, alternating between slashes and spins. If one is defeated, the remaining Evil Knight Minion continues the pattern alone, executing two slashes before performing the spin attack. Additionally, they are equipped with the Vampiric Aura upgrade, allowing them to heal whenever they defeat a Skylander or any of their minions, such as Eye-Brawl’s eye crawlers or Sonic Boom’s chicks.

Trivia
- The Evil Knight Minion's name is not stated in-game, and is only revealed in the Official Strategy Guide for Spyro's Adventure, where he's called the Dark Knight Minion.
- A Topps trading card also refers to him as the Dark Knight.
- The Official Strategy Guide for Spyro's Adventure falsely claims that the Evil Knight Minion is fought before the Evil Imp Minion in the PlayStation 3 / Xbox 360 version.
- Despite having an "Evil Catchphrase clip" in the game files, the Evil Knight Minions in Autogyro Adventure use Chop Chop’s regular voice instead, leaving the evil clip unused.[3]
- The Evil Knight Minion is the only evil version of an Undead Skylander to return in Giants.
- His sword and shield appear to have the "Demon Blade of the Underworld" and "Demon Shield of Shadows" upgrades, respectively. However, these upgrades are impossible for Chop Chop to have simultaneously in-game, as they are from separate upgrade paths.
- However in Giants, the Evil Knight Minions no longer use the "Demon Shield of Shadows" and instead wield the shield from the "Spiked Shield Bash" upgrade.
