Abilities
In the original series, Spyro's main attacks consist of ramming his opponents with his long horns or breathing fire at them. In later games, power-ups appear that let Spyro do much more powerful things like flying, spitting fire balls, and breathing ice. In every game past Spyro 2: Season of Flame, Spyro is able to breathe fire and ice, with power-up gates letting him breath super fire, ice and lightning. In Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly he is able to breathe fire, bubble, lightning and ice. In Spyro: A Hero's Tail, he is able to breathe fire, water, ice, and lightning.
In the Legend of Spyro series, Spyro controls the elements of Fire, Electricity, Ice, and Earth.
In the Skylanders series, Spyro has the ability to control all of the elements of the world of Skylands, but he prefers to master his original favorite - fire. On some occasions, he can also harness the powers of darkness to become his dark alter ego, Dark Spyro, but this process always leaves him at risk of being consumed by the darkness.
