The Adventure Begins...A platforming video game franchise (with a focus on combat in later games) starring the eponymous purple dragon, Spyro. It was started in 1998 when Universal Interactive Studios commissioned Insomniac Games to make a child-oriented game on the original PlayStation. It was decided that it'd star a dragon because, well, dragons are cool! Spyro was settled on purple because it's a rare colour in environments, even in a fantasy setting.Seeing as making a platformer where the player can just fly over everything would've been difficult, it was decided this dragon would be a child, which had the added bonus of appealing to the target demographic. As a youngling, Spyro was able to glide rather than fly freely (though he was able to fly in special levels and in later games via a temporary powerup).Although the series was a hit, Insomniac moved on after the third game, partly because they felt it was difficult to create varied gameplay when the main playable character is a quadruped (the third game allowed you to switch to bipedal characters and had lots of vehicle sections, and Insomniac's next series, Ratchet & Clank, made heavy use of gadgets and weapons). Universal Interactive Studios (later known as Vivendi Universal Games and simply Vivendi Games, under their Sierra banner) retained the rights, and their Spyro games tried to rectify the aforementioned issue by adding in various gimmicks, such as multiple elemental breaths, combat, and eventually even unlimited free flight.Activision is the current developer/producer/distributor of the franchise.The series has been rebooted twice. The first reboot, The Legend of Spyro, was Darker and Edgier, while the second reboot, Skylanders, returned to the lightness of the classic series while also spinning off its own hugely successful franchise and kicking off the "Toys to Life" genre.The Spyro franchise has a long history of crossing over with the Crash Bandicoot games, starting with a Spyro the Dragon demo in Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped and culminating in Crash Purple and Spyro Orange. Their initial developers, Insomniac and Naughty Dog have been close allies for years. They worked on Spyro and Crash literally right next to each other, in the same room. Jak and Daxter and Ratchet & Clank have a similar relationship for the same reason.On April 5, 2018, a Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy-style remake of the original three games, Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, was revealed. It was released on November 13, 2018 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and on Steam and Nintendo Switch on September 3rd, 2019.Games: | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change Played with in Ripto's Rage with some of the minigames, becomes incredibly prevalent in Year of the Dragon. YOTD included game mechanics like skate parks, speedways, first-person shooter levels, different vehicles, different playable characters with different game mechanics, and at least one minigame in each level. Compare this to the first game, which only had the Speedways. | |

Cowardly Mooks: The very first enemies in every entry were always this, being unable to even fight back. In the first game, the green mages of the third world will panic whenever Spyro manages to get through their traps. The fifth world also has cowardly, harmless fools that you have to hit in order to activate certain platforms. The first game and YOTD had egg thieves that you had to chase down in order to retrieve dragon eggs. | |

| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_221a4bf4 | comment |
Iconic Sequel Character: Ripto was the Big Bad of the second game. He reappeared as the lead villain, not in the trilogy but in the later games not made by Insomniac. Hunter appeared in the same game, staying a major character in the next Insomniac game and in the majority of the series after, enough to even make it into the Legend series (albeit in a radically altered form with completely different characterization). | |

Ambiguously Human: Handel And Greta. There are very few characters that even look human, and these are some of them. They appear to be humans, but they are shown capable of beating the tar out of superhuman ninjas. Also, at the end of the level, their eyes turn into red glowing demon eyes. Heck, because this is a world of largely anthropomorphic animals, it is possible that all the humanlike characters aren't really humans. | |

Furry Confusion | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: Bianca is an anthropomorphic rabbit in a game where Spyro kills rabbits for health, and sometimes she'll appear in the very same level as the rabbit fodder. Try not to think about it too much. The Sorceress used a rabbit fodder to create the first Boss in YOTD... There are the Funny Animals, then there are non-anthropomorphic animals that appear to have at least some anthro behaviors. Sunny Beach in the second game has funny animals and animalistic animals side-by-side, without the animalistic ones acting as fodder. You are asked by a talking turtle, sitting in its own shell like a chair, to guide three shell-less, running baby turtles to the other side of the level. But to get them there, you have to open gates by pushing completely turtle-like turtles onto floor switches. Each orb quest in the level involves freeing baby versions of these same turtle-like turtles. | |

Carnivore Confusion | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_27a58d30 | comment |
The original trilogy is full of this. Spyro the dragon is implied to have a thing for Elora the faun, Hunter the cheetah falls in love with Bianca the rabbit (which adds Carnivore Confusion to the mix), and Sgt. Byrd the flying penguin falls in love with a very humanoid fairy, and that's only naming a few. | |

Some Kind of Force Field | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_27da9a33 | comment |
Some Kind of Force Field: Some realms use these to keep Spyro in the level proper. They are marked with small structures placed every few yards, presumably acting as fenceposts to the barrier itself. If Spyro charges into an invisible barrier, he'll be knocked back as if he hit a wall, and the spot that he hit will flash for a second afterward. Funnily enough, cheating, glitching, or otherwise managing to get Spyro higher than he can manage during normal gameplay shows that these barriers aren't very tall, and the land behind them remains solid for a pretty good stretch of space before it ends. | |

Bag of Spilling | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_28104b90 | comment |
Bag of Spilling: Mostly averted in Spyro's case in Year of the Dragon. He's still able to swim, climb ladders and headbash, but he doesn't keep the Superflame ability awarded for 100% Completion (though it's for the best that he doesn't). Played straight for Sparx in the same game. He forgets how to point to uncollected gems by holding down the shoulder buttons, but can relearn the ability in the second Sparx bonus level. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Spyro's name is a combination of the Latin spīrō (I breathe) and the Greek πῦρ (transliterated "pyr"; fire). Some of the dragon hatchlings' names in Year of the Dragon have special meanings of their own. For example, the dragon in the egg held by the first thief in Molten Crater is named Moira, which means "fate" in Greek. | |

Schizo Tech: Medieval elements in the first three games are used quite a lot, but there's also domed robot cities (Metropolis) and metal cities on the ocean (Metro Speedway), as well as smaller-scale technology mixes like electric floors in an area where the dragons still live on stilts in the swamp. It's quite rampant- though the Legend games eased up, Skylanders went right back to the chaotic mix. | |

Pickup Hierarchy: Primary: Dragons, which perform this role despite not being literally collected. Secondary: Gems (also tertiary).

Redshirt Army | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_558245a7 | comment |
Redshirt Army: Not only does Spyro have to help out the hummingbird army in Year of the Dragon, but also in Season of Ice. Admittedly these are two different divisions of the Redshirt (or Rubythroat) Army, but that still doesn't say good things about their effectiveness. | |

Family-Unfriendly Violence: You're killing things all the time, even children (think of the Breezebuilder Chicks) and random animals to get butterflies from. At times it seems like cartoon violence, but you're obviously roasting and breaking beings. Their spirits appear at times. Death is also a common joke in cutscenes. | |

Vague Age | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_7f080f98 | comment |
Vague Age: Spyro is implied to be twelve at the time of the third game. The games are implied to not follow Comic-Book Time, and Spyro does mature in appearance and voice over the original series. Other dragons that are implied to be his age sound noticeably younger then him in A Hero's Tail so he's probably in his young teens, sixteen at most. Still, eggs are apparent in that game despite the fact that they only arrive once every twelve years. Subverted in The Legend of Spyro trilogy, as Spyro is confirmed to be twelve at the start of the first game. | |

Interspecies Romance | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_8485d41a | comment |
Interspecies Romance: The original trilogy is full of this. Spyro the dragon is implied to have a thing for Elora the faun, Hunter the cheetah falls in love with Bianca the rabbit (which adds Carnivore Confusion to the mix), and Sgt. Byrd the flying penguin falls in love with a very humanoid fairy, and that's only naming a few. Princess Ami of the fairies and Prince Azrael of the cat wizards. The fairies and wizards won't accept their relationship (in fact, the fairies mislead Spyro into thinking Ami has been abducted against her will, and must be saved). The two decide to elope, riding a magical flying motorcycle to the sunset. There's also Romeo and Juliet, a Land Blubber (giant purple grub) and a bird, in Zephyr. The cutscenes had a bit of this as well. Compare the Japanese version to the original version to see how much added dialogue there is. For starters, Sparx can talk. The cutscenes that played at the beginning and the end of each level definitely had this. | |

Portal Network: The setting is made up of various distinct locations whose populations make heavy use of portals to get between them. The first game had Spyro exit levels through whirlwinds though. Spyro also glides through portals, suggesting they are useless to those without good jumping ability and don't immediately deposit people to the intended goal. | |

Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_91183950 | comment |
Sunny Beach in the second game has funny animals and animalistic animals side-by-side, without the animalistic ones acting as fodder. You are asked by a talking turtle, sitting in its own shell like a chair, to guide three shell-less, running baby turtles to the other side of the level. But to get them there, you have to open gates by pushing completely turtle-like turtles onto floor switches. Each orb quest in the level involves freeing baby versions of these same turtle-like turtles. | |

Big Bad | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: Each original game really had a stand alone Big Bad, but Ripto was a recurring villain. He was ironically the big bad with the least effect on the plot in his original appearance. The Legend of Spyro trilogy had Malefor as the main antagonist, though each game had a villain he was the Man Behind the Man of, Cynder in the first and Gaul in the second, Skabb was also an arc Big Bad in the second. Skylanders has the Portal Master Kaos as the primary enemy, though depending on the game and platform several other villains have taken the lead from time to time, and the Darkness is eventually introduced; the IDW comics also brought a Skylanders continuity Malefor in as a major villain. | |

Armor Points | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_a13dfbfd | comment |
Armor Points: Sparx works as your "shield". Spyro is actually a One-Hit-Point Wonder, but you wouldn't know that because Sparx will take the damage for you when you get hit. You can recharge him, generally by roasting something small and furry until butterflies come out. Sparx then eats the butterflies and regains some strength. | |

Xtreme Kool Letterz: The real word that Spyro comes from is actually spelled with an i (Spiro). Though it might be from a combination of the Greek word "pyro" (meaning "fire") and the Latin "spiro" (meaning "to breathe"), making it a Meaningful Name. There is reasonable (and hilarious) evidence to support this claim. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: An odd one in Year of the Dragon to Never Cry Wolf, a book by Farley Mowat. An NPC named Mowat has you look for his pet wolf, Farley. At one point he says "Don't cry, wolf. Never cry, wolf!" Upon rescuing Tomas in Gnorc Cove: In the third game Spyro gives us this line: "The rumors of our extinction were greatly exaggerated". The second game has one of the wizards in the Cloud Temples stage claiming that he knew the magic words to take Spyro straight to Dragon Shores: "Klaatu, barada, ni- nuh- na... Never mind." In Year of the Dragon, there's a side mission as Agent 9, which is entirely a first-person shooter. The description in the atlas to get the egg for completing this is called "You're Doomed!" Again in YOTD, if you don't pay Moneybags to let Sgt. Byrd out, he tells you, surprisingly, "You better hurry, I think he's pining for the fjords." Later on, he also tells you "Don't make a wizard angry, I might just have to turn you into a blue hedgehog." At one point in the third game you meet a mouse expy of Lara Croft. Still in Year Of The Dragon, in the Charmed Ridge, the catpeople's prince is named "Azrael". Now, where else can we see a brown cat named Azrael?... | |

Our Dragons Are Different: Dragons in the original series are bipedal and roughly humanoid, with quadrupedal children, and divided in groups defined by their occupations (Artisan, Peace Keeper, Magic Crafter, Beast Maker, Dream Weaver) are very different from the dragons in the Legend trilogy and Skylanders, where dragons are larger-winged quadrupeds with more emphasis is placed on color and element rather than realm and occupation. There are also the enemy "fire dragons" of the Sorceress's Fireworks Factory in YotD, limbless Segmented Serpents with Chinese dragon heads, that are nothing like anything else in the Spyro games. | |

Artistic License – Physics: The general rule is that enemies in metal armour are immune to being flamed but vulnerable to being charged, but this really should be the other way around. Metal is highly conductive of heat so it would likely make burns worse, and would be much better at protecting against blunt trauma such as being charged. | |

Theme Naming: Spyro, Ember, and Flame the dragons; all the fireflies, many of the level inhabitants. And every Legend of Spyro dragon including Malefor, for that matter. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You | |
| Spyro the Dragon (Franchise) / int_ffd816e7 | comment |
Everything Trying to Kill You: Inverted. A lot of the on-screen creatures won't try to attack you. On the other hand, killing both the enemies and the peaceful animals has its own rewards, so in a way, this trope is reversed. | |
