* ArcherArchetype: Flameslinger is the very first bow-wielding Skylander, who can either shoot fire arrows or unleash a RainOfArrows.

Added DiffLines:

* OvershadowedByAwesome: Both Stump Smash and Double Trouble's Soul Gems gives them the ability to traverse over water (and in the former's case, also get healed while in it). But they become useless when you realize that you get Gill Grunt in the Starter Pack, who can already do it out of the gate due to being a Water Skylander. There's also Spyro, whose flying ability that can be used for the same thing is much cheaper than what a Soul Gem upgrade costs. And to make things even worse, traversing over water isn't even utilized that much in the game.

* NonIndicativeName: Despite a certain Skylander having his name in the title of this game, Spyro doesn't have a unique role in the story, or something exceptional about him compared to other Skylanders in gameplay. The closest it gets is in the opening battle cutscene, where he's the first to jump into battle and the one who recieves the most focus when the Skylanders are being banished. Everywhere else though, he shares the spotlight with Gill Grunt and Trigger Happy, such as Hugo refering to only them three by name at the start of Shattered Island and all three appearing in the closing cutscene.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Antepiece}}: The player uses cannon for the first time to shoot four locks on a gate in chapter 2. The locks are stationary targets and are therefore a way of easing the player into how using cannons work for when every other segment following this one has moving targets.
