I'd like to point out that Tread Head (Trap team Tech core) NEVER leaves his Vehicle, (Except when it doesn't work in his death animation) he is more committed to his vehicle than any super charger
maybe in canon before were skylanders some were jerks and maybe villains shouldn't be allow aka a punishment. because wouldn't allow mean jerks and be banned to it and took to long to fix the problem
8:25 "He's finally here performing for you if you know the words you join in too put your hands togather if you want clap to this monley rap. DK Donkey Kong!!!"
10:15 the Rigt thing is answered in "Rift into Overdrive", the Sky Eater was TEARING HOLES IN TIME AND SPACE, and ripping things in and out of other universes.
The reason it has inconsistent writing between the comics the games and the books it's mainly because they're written by different people I think the books were by toys for Bob and the comics are by idw.
Grilla drilla feels weirdly a lot like knuckles, they're both warriors that guarded great treasures, their main form of combat is punching, they both dig, and both were initially mistrusting of the new world they found themselves in
I really like Grilla Drilla’s connection to Boom Bloom. It’s small stuff like sensing her eagerness to become a skylander really makes the world of Skylanders feel more alive. It makes these characters feel more like characters. Also, I absolutely agree that the Drilla empire would have been an awesome level Also also, the pipeline-like comparison you used to describe the portals connecting all of the different franchises is literally how the mushroom kingdom and Brooklyn are connected. We literally see in the Mario movie that Mario and Luigi while in their home of Brooklyn find a pipe that takes them to the Mushroom Kingdom Keep up the good work, this was a fun video to watch
The Gorilla Goos would make such cool enemies and General Snot would make such an awesome boss fight if we ever get Skylanders 7, maybe they’ll be responsible for Grilla Drilla’s home being destroyed. We might get to explore his old kingdom and fight them.
I know you're getting most of your info from the skylanders wiki but there's actually more on the spyro wiki. From what ive seen, most of the stuff on there is correct, but it does link its sources as well so you can fact-check
My question about rifts appearing in the Mario world, how did the bros not get involved. Usually the Mario bros are the first to get in on a situation like this. Plus beating the darkness would be right up their alley. The answer is probably there were no rifts near them
8:54: Technically that was Cranky Kong, Modern Donkey Kong (Who was Cranky's grandson, now retconned to son) first appeared in Donkey Kong Country in 1994 9:07: Someone made a comic dub of it th-cam.com/video/aNIZcZVsYwo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=L-axKk1MEeM0b5Ib 11:08: The lore of Smash bros is a child playing with toys and it's not canon to any franchise except Kid Icarus due to their 4th wall awareness, Amiibos don't have lore so it's just the mario universe
Great video man and for future reference if you ever Bowser for a video Unexpected Allies has a dub that last I checked is still up on TH-cam. Ps please do Fiesta for a video!!!!
So i wanna ask, have you tried making a concept for a skylanders 7? Cuz I had an idea called Skylanders : quest for the primal crystal When Eon welcomed us the skylands but it cuts to kaos and glumshanks, then a sheep walks by the jar but accidentally knocks it over and breaks its, after a montage of kaos and glumshanks wondering the skylands, they come across a crystal that when kaos touched it he and glumshanks returned to their natural size and kaos gets an idea, then we cut to flinn and buzz catching up on stuff until they sense a energy surge flinn was confused but buzz had a look that said he knew what it was but wasn’t able to tell flinn then we cut to gameplay, your skylander on top of climbs ship and you’ll have to fend off weird looking chompies from greeble planes ( like chompies with tails ) and then you enter a large cave of sorts where you get to see Eon in his physical form and he asks for help to stop kaos together, then we enter our first boss fight and it’s already kaos, the battle will be fairly easy but then it cuts to kaos being flung towards the primal crystal and decides to use it but as he tries to use it the skylanders and Eon blast the crystal causing an explosion that sent everyone across skylands but our characters, some of the skylanders and Eon land in skylanders academy but the skylanders get up but find themselves in a larger,stronger and more fearful form of themselves and Eon gets up and finds himself as a child but with his normal voice but still as wise As for the new “gimmicklanders” they are the playable primal skylanders Such as : 1.Primal spyro : this version of our favourite purple dragon has a more theropod like body, his hind limbs resemble raptor legs along with the toe claw, his arms are now act as actual arms but with only 3 fingers ( 2 actual fingers and 1 thumb on each hand ), spyros wings are larger to help this new spyro fly around,spyros tail has now got a fusion of his normal tail spike with with stegosaurus thagomiser, he gains a third horn on his forehead and his head now resembles a friendlier T rex like head but with saberteeth 2. Primal stealth elf : this version of our favourite silent but deadly green elf gains raptor like legs along with the toe claws, her arms fuse with her blades ( as in she’d have the bone spikes on the sides of her wrists and the knuckle guards as the knuckles ) but her finger count his now 2 fingers one thumb on each hand, she gains a long tail and finally her head is now like a dilophosaurus ( the jp design ) 3. Primal eruptor : this version of our favourite talking rock not resembles an ankylosaurus made out of lava but with a massive head, and his new tail club would be use to launch lava balls and slam on enemies 4. Primal zap : this version of my personal favourite zappy water boi changes in the weirdest way, his scuba gear fuses into in body giving him a orb in chest kinda look, as for major changes are : elongated neck, large and tall sail fin, clawed fingers and toes, elongated and muscular tail, reduced horns and a more shark like head 5. primal chop chop : this version of the undead slasher has a more dinosaur looking skull head, more digitigrade leg structure, a long skeletal tail,bare but skeletal dino claws and finally his two swords and now fused to his wrist armour 6. Primal prism break : this version of the skylander with a trap team secret would resemble a glyptodont made out of rocks, a tail club with crystals and finally still standing on two legs 7. Primal hot dog : this version of the spicy puppy would resemble a dire wolf or a hyenadont but made out of lava 8. Primal lightning rod : this god of lightning would resemble the gigantopithicus but with clouds for fur and with blue skin 9. Primal gill grunt : this primal version of of this non fill grunt fish man his appearance would resemble for of the xinphactinus in head design, head gain a long tail with a shark tail, his head fin would change in shape into a shark fin like form and finally this fish he would use as weapons are now fused into into his body ( like how primal chop chop did it ) 10. Primal slobbertooth : this version of the hungry hungry turtle would stand on 2 legs and gain actual arms with sharp claws,his tail club would shrink in favour for a longer and more muscular tail,his shell would gain stegosaurus like plates on his back and finally his head wouldn’t change much but would become larger 11. Primal mega horn spyro : basically the same but has massively increased horns And this game would bring back elemental gates and even core skylanders, but these would mostly be prehistoric inspired ones Will continue one later, do you like it tho?
This is a really cool concept. Exploring parts of Skylands' past is a concept that I would love to see in an official game. The new skylanders remind me a lot of the Supercharger reposes, with the whole taking an existing skylander, changing their appearance, giving them new abilities to reflect said new appearence, and treating them as a separate character. I'd love for this idea to be further fleshed out
I just realized that since skylanders is linked with the Mario world that means 1. Spyro and Crash can be in Smash Bros 2. Bowser and DK could have just called up Kirby to whoop the Darkness a new one
Thanks to the very end now I’m wondering if there is/will be a video from someone giving the smash roster skylanders elements/maybe classes, probably just elements but still a fun idea
7:58 I stopped watching about here cuz I figured I was getting into spoiler territory. I didn’t even think that was possible! Don’t worry, I’ll be back.
If dk is in Skylanders and smash it means that the roaster of smash is in Skylanders and solid dnake is in fortnite Skylanders is linked to fortnite and thanks to Michel myers he is in dead by daylight and how's in or coming in Spring Trap so fnaf and Skylanders are not that far when you think of it that way
aight, back to the front with part 2 12. 8:35 Although two of them don't count as guest Skylanders, there's technically 6 as Spyro and Cynder both appeared in the previous Spyro games, they don't count as guest Skylanders game wise but they're still worth a mention. 13. 8:42 Smash Bandicoot... I don't need to say more. 14. 8:56 Not sure about his development either but I heard that that the original DK game was supposed to be a game based on Popeye, Popeye himself being the main character and Brutus throwing down barrels, it was only after the rights holders disagreed to the game that the character sprites were reworked into a plumber and a gorilla, aka Mario and DK, can't confirm it myself tho. 15. 9:16 It's literally on youtube, it's one of the first things that pops up when you search it, there's also another post on some forum akin to Tumblr that has all the comic pages albeit in not the best quality but hey, it's readable, also funny how Neon Batteries says "for the life of me I can't find it" and then literally says "after 15 minutes of searching for it I decided to read from the wiki, so you spent a bit over 10 minutes and called it quits, a bit funny. 16. 9:30 You can actually see that same scenario in the Rift Into Overdrive comic, in one panel you can even see the silhouettes of DK and Bowser although they're blackened out so people didn't initially know the surprise 17. 9:49 The two aren't actually mentioned to be proper enemies at that point, Bowser appears a lot more neutral than his original counterpart, and yes it's also not confirmed whether or not this is the same Bowser and DK as the Mario games or if it's a whole different version of Bowser and DK similarly to Skylanders Spyro and Skylanders Crash, it's safer to assume they're different versions of these characters as trying to fit Mario lore into Skylanders lore doesn't work. 18. 10:18 Bowser only agreed AFTER Buzz and Mags gave him the Clown Cruiser, as Bowser wanted Buzz to "sweeten the deal" before joining. 19. 10:25 It didn't, the Sky Eater was designed to create Rifts AND to shut down the Portal Network, they're both cause by the same device but one didn't cause the other, we saw a different example of the Portal Network being shut down when the Skylanders faced off against Machine Magus, and that event is directly cited to have lead to the Sky Eater being designed the way it did, Kaos improved upon the design of the Omni-Disruptor Magus originally created, which you would know if you ever read the comic but of course you didn't even read the wiki it seems 20. 10:30 The entire theory is not correct because of the lore explained in Rift Into Overdrive, the Rifts appeared because the Sky Eater was literally pulling Skylands and it's magic apart. 21. 10:50 Yes, on a technicality even Fortnite, both the game as we see in our irl world and the universe could be canon to Skylanders with the way it is written, Skylands is at the center of the universe, from it you can go to any other universe including our Earth where magic is scarce or other worlds where magic is common, you can just do that, the question isn't "is it in Skylands", it's a question of "how is it implemented", again we don't know if Bowser and Dk we see in Skylanders are the same characters as we see in the Mario universe or if they're completely different versions of these characters with their own differences which seems likely, on another note the Crash Bandicoot we see in the Skylanders games is definitely not the same as the one we saw in the original games considering he himself started out with a specific element (he didn't gian it later on like Bowser and DK) and the Wumpa Islands work differently, and hell just look at Skylanders Spyro who ISN'T either og or TLOS Spyro. 22. 11:03 Smash has little to do with this theory as Smash is it's own universe with it's own lore, the characters in Smash are simply toys brought to life by a child's imagination, it's not that suddenly all of these different franchises had doorways opened to their universes and the first thing they did was fight, it's that the child just plays with whatever toys they have 23. 11:18 With the way Skylands is written it is still possible that Bayonetta is in some way canon to Skylanders, or at least some version of her, but don't get your hopes up for a crossover this is only a technicality
@@Folia.. I get you frustrations with a lot of this stuff and I do try my best to research as much as I can, but I’m not going to figure out everything, I’m just trying to make a enjoyable video with the resources and time that I have
@@neonbatteries4389 I was literally offering my help for months, I said plenty of times that I don't dislike your videos, I just wish they were more researched, I offered to give you the books, the comics, the whole shebang, you didn't answer edit: I'm sorry if I went a bit ballistic in my recent comments however after the Seraphine video and combined with the fact that nearly every video you made has technically spread misinformation I got a bit annoyed as people do watch and enjoy your content
@@Folia.. I understand, and I apologize for not seeing any of your other comments, I have a very busy life and don’t have the time to go through everything, I only saw and responded this one because it was the first thing I saw after getting out of school.
aight, back to the front with part 1 1. the title, a nitpick but it's just funny to me, "Skylands' many primates" it's literally only these three in the Skylanders themselves and otherwise very minor appearances, I bet this guy doesn't even mention Flying Gorillas. 2. 1:19 Didn't feel like you did when you mentioned lore incomplete lore that isn't even canon anymore but eh, not my point to judge, you guys just remember that the Serpahine video isn't all that accurate. 3. 2:39 "City of Skylands' past", what sort of Christmas Carol writing is this, the events of Grilla's backstory don't even happen all that in the past since it's only around a 100 years before SSA, some Core Skylanders have lived longer than that. 4. 3:20 That is Ring of Heroes lore, not main canon, in the main canon Grilla Drilla is one of those Skylanders that did not make any appearance outside of the game they were introduced in. 5. 4:15 Neon Batteries in fact did not interpret the lore correctly, as Grilla Drilla wasn't really mentioned in other media we have no actual confirmation as to what happened to the kingdom, but judging by the fact Grilla is mentioned to have been successful in protecting it from the trolls it very well might still be around, just without Grilla, it might've moved on, it might've secluded itself even more hidden from everyone, we simply don't know, either way assuming that the Drilla Empire is gone just because it isn't mentioned again is the same as assuming any location from the Skylanders' basckstories is just destroyed if we don't see it in game, which we already know would be proven false because we had to wait for 4 games to finally see the Cloud Kingdom, again just saying there's no actual proof to back up the claim that the Drilla Empire has actually truly fallen at any point. 6. 6:23 Not so minor and not a book, IDW made Skylanders comics, I know it's maybe not that important and I'm nitpicky but it is yet another detail described incorrectly and not even the first time. 7. 6:48 A master of a not so common martial art, a gods damned unicorn that had his connection to Fire empowered by a whole different legendary unicorn, and the not anymore sleeping protector of an entire forest all compared to a woman who got her powers by accident and defeated a bunch of snails that defeated a dragon keeper fresh from her grandpa's stable... Like I get that you dislike the fact that they talked down to her, we're supposed to do that, but don't downplay their lore just to fit your own narrative, by sheer comparison these three could think lesser of Deja Vu because she hadn't yet achieved the same things they did, that's the entire point of the comic you shouldn't downplay yourself because others appear better, you gotta believe in your own self and just do what you gotta do. 8. 7:26 None of those Skylanders are "supposed" to act this way, they acted like that towards Deja Vu because again they had reason to believe that she isn't worth the title, that's also why they apologize after she wins, it's not that they actually just said "you stupid", Fist Bump specifically says that he thinks "the Finals are for Skylanders that can handle heavy combat", they judged a book by it's cover and tbh even Deja Vu admits in the comic that she isn't one of the more powerful Skylanders, and that is the case there are Skylanders stronger than them but it all depends on the situation and as Spyro explains this being a Skylander is not about possessing raw power, it's now how powerful you are it's how you use it, and to use it you gotta believe that you can use it in the first place, something the three other Skylanders at the Finals did not understand at the time but sure learned when Deja Vu beat them despite being "weaker". 9. 7:36 "They're all just so mean spirited to each other" coincidentally ignores all the other lore that stands against this, including but not limited to Zook's friendship with Hex, Zap inspiring Gill Grunt in the books, Spyro in the Champions comic mentioned above, Prism Break helping out on Trigger Happy's birthday, the Skylanders trying to figure out how to break Ignitor out of his armour, accepting Cynder as a Skylander, the Annual Battle Cry competition, no let's just forget all about that and focus on literally the only two instances where the Skylanders can be considered "not nice" to each other that most people can think of (there are possible other examples but they're so minor it's more like pranks and teasing than actually hating on each other, case in point Zook calling Hex "Hexy" or the Skylanders trying to make either Prism Break or Hex laugh), I'll break them both down in a sec. 10. 7:40 "It's just wild considering what I know" which arguably isn't a whole lot about the series, I'm sorry if this'll sound mean but you yourself admitted multiple times that you only ever check the wiki which isn't a definitive source for info, on multiple occasions you have shown that you don't actually fact check your claims which is exactly why I write all these comments. 11. 7:46 I don't know how many times I have to repeat this but to hammer it down properly, SKYLANDERS DON'T KILL, that was the exact reason why Spyro stopped Stump Smash from killing Kaos, if Skylanders start killing they will just grow as evil as the villains they're fighting, it's the same logic as with any comic book superheroes, as for the Secret Agents Secrets comic I already talked about this on that video but neither Nightfall nor Ghost Roaster ever said the word "kill", what they said is for Stormblade to "take down the bad guy", which is never interpreted as killing in any of the games or other media, Skylanders don't kill, we don't know exactly what happens to enemies when they are defeated but we know they ain't killed.
Smash isn't canon to any of the franchises that show up in it, although weirdly enough smash is also a video game series about a kid playing with toys/ figures of characters but the kid is imagining that Link and Mario are fighting
Also smash is literally just the story of an autistic kid playing with his amiibos, the stories and especially the implications are meant to just be a kids imagination. Even brawl, which had like this super edgy story could be explained as the kid trying to put a fresh spin on his game and making it more fun for his older brain.
I'd like to point out that Tread Head (Trap team Tech core) NEVER leaves his Vehicle, (Except when it doesn't work in his death animation) he is more committed to his vehicle than any super charger
I can predict that the next episode will be the cross over Skylanders
Just hopping in to apologize for a mix up. I accidentally called crash bandicoot smash bandicoot at 8:43, sorry about that
Don’t look up Smash Bandicoot, you’ll get some weird shit.
Don’t mention smash bandicoot and dk in the same video… trust me..:
maybe in canon before were skylanders some were jerks and maybe villains shouldn't be allow aka a punishment. because wouldn't allow mean jerks and be banned to it and took to long to fix the problem
There are 6 crossover Skylanders. Donkey Kong, Bowser, CRASH Bandicoot, Neo Cortex, Spyro, and Cynder.
Did you just say SMASH bandicoot 8:43
8:25 "He's finally here performing for you if you know the words you join in too put your hands togather if you want clap to this monley rap. DK Donkey Kong!!!"
"Smash Bandicoot"
oh
oh no
funny miss-name next to Cash Banooca
10:15 the Rigt thing is answered in "Rift into Overdrive", the Sky Eater was TEARING HOLES IN TIME AND SPACE, and ripping things in and out of other universes.

Keep up the good work, this was a fun video to watch
The Gorilla Goos would make such cool enemies and General Snot would make such an awesome boss fight if we ever get Skylanders 7, maybe they’ll be responsible for Grilla Drilla’s home being destroyed. We might get to explore his old kingdom and fight them.
Loving the recent videos, has absolutely reignited my love for Skylanders. Keep up the great work!
Now that she’s been mentioned, can you PLEASE do a video on Deja vu? Her lore is totally insane and I love it
You could technically say there are 6 crossover characters, spyro and cinder made their origins in the spyro game series, not skylanders
it was so cool discovering later that Spyro had his own franchise with more adventures
@@smartstuf1026 I personally find some of spyro's own games quite fun, the original trilogy and the reignited trilogy are pretty good
I know you're getting most of your info from the skylanders wiki but there's actually more on the spyro wiki. From what ive seen, most of the stuff on there is correct, but it does link its sources as well so you can fact-check
Great video as always. Hope you have a great day or night.

YSSSSS FINALLY THE GREATEST SKYLANDER EVER GRILLA DRILLAAAAAAAAAAA. and fling kong is in my top 20
So i wanna ask, have you tried making a concept for a skylanders 7? Cuz
I had an idea called
Skylanders : quest for the primal crystal
When Eon welcomed us the skylands but it cuts to kaos and glumshanks, then a sheep walks by the jar but accidentally knocks it over and breaks its, after a montage of kaos and glumshanks wondering the skylands, they come across a crystal that when kaos touched it he and glumshanks returned to their natural size and kaos gets an idea, then we cut to flinn and buzz catching up on stuff until they sense a energy surge flinn was confused but buzz had a look that said he knew what it was but wasn’t able to tell flinn then we cut to gameplay, your skylander on top of climbs ship and you’ll have to fend off weird looking chompies from greeble planes ( like chompies with tails ) and then you enter a large cave of sorts where you get to see Eon in his physical form and he asks for help to stop kaos together, then we enter our first boss fight and it’s already kaos, the battle will be fairly easy but then it cuts to kaos being flung towards the primal crystal and decides to use it but as he tries to use it the skylanders and Eon blast the crystal causing an explosion that sent everyone across skylands but our characters, some of the skylanders and Eon land in skylanders academy but the skylanders get up but find themselves in a larger,stronger and more fearful form of themselves and Eon gets up and finds himself as a child but with his normal voice but still as wise
As for the new “gimmicklanders” they are the playable primal skylanders
Such as :
1.Primal spyro : this version of our favourite purple dragon has a more theropod like body, his hind limbs resemble raptor legs along with the toe claw, his arms are now act as actual arms but with only 3 fingers ( 2 actual fingers and 1 thumb on each hand ), spyros wings are larger to help this new spyro fly around,spyros tail has now got a fusion of his normal tail spike with with stegosaurus thagomiser, he gains a third horn on his forehead and his head now resembles a friendlier T rex like head but with saberteeth

3. Primal eruptor : this version of our favourite talking rock not resembles an ankylosaurus made out of lava but with a massive head, and his new tail club would be use to launch lava balls and slam on enemies
4. Primal zap : this version of my personal favourite zappy water boi changes in the weirdest way, his scuba gear fuses into in body giving him a orb in chest kinda look, as for major changes are : elongated neck, large and tall sail fin, clawed fingers and toes, elongated and muscular tail, reduced horns and a more shark like head
5. primal chop chop : this version of the undead slasher has a more dinosaur looking skull head, more digitigrade leg structure, a long skeletal tail,bare but skeletal dino claws and finally his two swords and now fused to his wrist armour
6. Primal prism break : this version of the skylander with a trap team secret would resemble a glyptodont made out of rocks, a tail club with crystals and finally still standing on two legs
7. Primal hot dog : this version of the spicy puppy would resemble a dire wolf or a hyenadont but made out of lava
8. Primal lightning rod : this god of lightning would resemble the gigantopithicus but with clouds for fur and with blue skin
9. Primal gill grunt : this primal version of of this non fill grunt fish man his appearance would resemble for of the xinphactinus in head design, head gain a long tail with a shark tail, his head fin would change in shape into a shark fin like form and finally this fish he would use as weapons are now fused into into his body ( like how primal chop chop did it )
10.

11. Primal mega horn spyro : basically the same but has massively increased horns
And this game would bring back elemental gates and even core skylanders, but these would mostly be prehistoric inspired ones

6:41 you are always talking about water but just look at this
Hello im new, iv been watching your videos lately and i really enjoy them :]
I just realized that since skylanders is linked with the Mario world that means
1. Spyro and Crash can be in Smash Bros
2. Bowser and DK could have just called up Kirby to whoop the Darkness a new one
The characters in smash are just toys in the lore
My blood began to boil when you said smash bandicoot
Swap Force is my favourite Skylanders game and my first
Bro cut that hate on my boy drilla
Thanks to the very end now I’m wondering if there is/will be a video from someone giving the smash roster skylanders elements/maybe classes, probably just elements but still a fun idea
That is a cool idea, honestly it’s getting me thinking too
Next can you do music skylanders? Echo, cobra cadabra, and fiesta?
7:58 I stopped watching about here cuz I figured I was getting into spoiler territory. I didn’t even think that was possible! Don’t worry, I’ll be back.
In Canon Smash Bros is just child sakura banging action figures together
“Hmmm….Monke”
lol!! Great video Neo!!
9:11 DK Face though.
Mmmm monke
1:22 ….no thank you though.
If dk is in Skylanders and smash it means that the roaster of smash is in Skylanders and solid dnake is in fortnite Skylanders is linked to fortnite and thanks to Michel myers he is in dead by daylight and how's in or coming in Spring Trap so fnaf and Skylanders are not that far when you think of it that way
aight, back to the front with part 2
12. 8:35 Although two of them don't count as guest Skylanders, there's technically 6 as Spyro and Cynder both appeared in the previous Spyro games, they don't count as guest Skylanders game wise but they're still worth a mention.
13. 8:42 Smash Bandicoot... I don't need to say more.
14. 8:56 Not sure about his development either but I heard that that the original DK game was supposed to be a game based on Popeye, Popeye himself being the main character and Brutus throwing down barrels, it was only after the rights holders disagreed to the game that the character sprites were reworked into a plumber and a gorilla, aka Mario and DK, can't confirm it myself tho.
15. 9:16 It's literally on youtube, it's one of the first things that pops up when you search it, there's also another post on some forum akin to Tumblr that has all the comic pages albeit in not the best quality but hey, it's readable, also funny how Neon Batteries says "for the life of me I can't find it" and then literally says "after 15 minutes of searching for it I decided to read from the wiki, so you spent a bit over 10 minutes and called it quits, a bit funny.
16. 9:30 You can actually see that same scenario in the Rift Into Overdrive comic, in one panel you can even see the silhouettes of DK and Bowser although they're blackened out so people didn't initially know the surprise
17. 9:49 The two aren't actually mentioned to be proper enemies at that point, Bowser appears a lot more neutral than his original counterpart, and yes it's also not confirmed whether or not this is the same Bowser and DK as the Mario games or if it's a whole different version of Bowser and DK similarly to Skylanders Spyro and Skylanders Crash, it's safer to assume they're different versions of these characters as trying to fit Mario lore into Skylanders lore doesn't work.
18. 10:18 Bowser only agreed AFTER Buzz and Mags gave him the Clown Cruiser, as Bowser wanted Buzz to "sweeten the deal" before joining.
19. 10:25 It didn't, the Sky Eater was designed to create Rifts AND to shut down the Portal Network, they're both cause by the same device but one didn't cause the other, we saw a different example of the Portal Network being shut down when the Skylanders faced off against Machine Magus, and that event is directly cited to have lead to the Sky Eater being designed the way it did, Kaos improved upon the design of the Omni-Disruptor Magus originally created, which you would know if you ever read the comic but of course you didn't even read the wiki it seems
20. 10:30 The entire theory is not correct because of the lore explained in Rift Into Overdrive, the Rifts appeared because the Sky Eater was literally pulling Skylands and it's magic apart.
21. 10:50 Yes, on a technicality even Fortnite, both the game as we see in our irl world and the universe could be canon to Skylanders with the way it is written, Skylands is at the center of the universe, from it you can go to any other universe including our Earth where magic is scarce or other worlds where magic is common, you can just do that, the question isn't "is it in Skylands", it's a question of "how is it implemented", again we don't know if Bowser and Dk we see in Skylanders are the same characters as we see in the Mario universe or if they're completely different versions of these characters with their own differences which seems likely, on another note the Crash Bandicoot we see in the Skylanders games is definitely not the same as the one we saw in the original games considering he himself started out with a specific element (he didn't gian it later on like Bowser and DK) and the Wumpa Islands work differently, and hell just look at Skylanders Spyro who ISN'T either og or TLOS Spyro.
22. 11:03 Smash has little to do with this theory as Smash is it's own universe with it's own lore, the characters in Smash are simply toys brought to life by a child's imagination, it's not that suddenly all of these different franchises had doorways opened to their universes and the first thing they did was fight, it's that the child just plays with whatever toys they have
23. 11:18 With the way Skylands is written it is still possible that Bayonetta is in some way canon to Skylanders, or at least some version of her, but don't get your hopes up for a crossover this is only a technicality
@@Folia.. I get you frustrations with a lot of this stuff and I do try my best to research as much as I can, but I’m not going to figure out everything, I’m just trying to make a enjoyable video with the resources and time that I have
@@neonbatteries4389 I was literally offering my help for months, I said plenty of times that I don't dislike your videos, I just wish they were more researched, I offered to give you the books, the comics, the whole shebang, you didn't answer
edit: I'm sorry if I went a bit ballistic in my recent comments however after the Seraphine video and combined with the fact that nearly every video you made has technically spread misinformation I got a bit annoyed as people do watch and enjoy your content
@@Folia.. I understand, and I apologize for not seeing any of your other comments, I have a very busy life and don’t have the time to go through everything, I only saw and responded this one because it was the first thing I saw after getting out of school.
@@neonbatteries4389 if you ever want to take me up on my offer, find me on any of the bigger Skylanders servers
Grilla drilla is awesome you just gotta get good at using him
Where’s the video in the description
aight, back to the front with part 1
1. the title, a nitpick but it's just funny to me, "Skylands' many primates" it's literally only these three in the Skylanders themselves and otherwise very minor appearances, I bet this guy doesn't even mention Flying Gorillas.
2. 1:19 Didn't feel like you did when you mentioned lore incomplete lore that isn't even canon anymore but eh, not my point to judge, you guys just remember that the Serpahine video isn't all that accurate.
3. 2:39 "City of Skylands' past", what sort of Christmas Carol writing is this, the events of Grilla's backstory don't even happen all that in the past since it's only around a 100 years before SSA, some Core Skylanders have lived longer than that.
4. 3:20 That is Ring of Heroes lore, not main canon, in the main canon Grilla Drilla is one of those Skylanders that did not make any appearance outside of the game they were introduced in.
5. 4:15 Neon Batteries in fact did not interpret the lore correctly, as Grilla Drilla wasn't really mentioned in other media we have no actual confirmation as to what happened to the kingdom, but judging by the fact Grilla is mentioned to have been successful in protecting it from the trolls it very well might still be around, just without Grilla, it might've moved on, it might've secluded itself even more hidden from everyone, we simply don't know, either way assuming that the Drilla Empire is gone just because it isn't mentioned again is the same as assuming any location from the Skylanders' basckstories is just destroyed if we don't see it in game, which we already know would be proven false because we had to wait for 4 games to finally see the Cloud Kingdom, again just saying there's no actual proof to back up the claim that the Drilla Empire has actually truly fallen at any point.
6. 6:23 Not so minor and not a book, IDW made Skylanders comics, I know it's maybe not that important and I'm nitpicky but it is yet another detail described incorrectly and not even the first time.
7. 6:48 A master of a not so common martial art, a gods damned unicorn that had his connection to Fire empowered by a whole different legendary unicorn, and the not anymore sleeping protector of an entire forest all compared to a woman who got her powers by accident and defeated a bunch of snails that defeated a dragon keeper fresh from her grandpa's stable... Like I get that you dislike the fact that they talked down to her, we're supposed to do that, but don't downplay their lore just to fit your own narrative, by sheer comparison these three could think lesser of Deja Vu because she hadn't yet achieved the same things they did, that's the entire point of the comic you shouldn't downplay yourself because others appear better, you gotta believe in your own self and just do what you gotta do.
8. 7:26 None of those Skylanders are "supposed" to act this way, they acted like that towards Deja Vu because again they had reason to believe that she isn't worth the title, that's also why they apologize after she wins, it's not that they actually just said "you stupid", Fist Bump specifically says that he thinks "the Finals are for Skylanders that can handle heavy combat", they judged a book by it's cover and tbh even Deja Vu admits in the comic that she isn't one of the more powerful Skylanders, and that is the case there are Skylanders stronger than them but it all depends on the situation and as Spyro explains this being a Skylander is not about possessing raw power, it's now how powerful you are it's how you use it, and to use it you gotta believe that you can use it in the first place, something the three other Skylanders at the Finals did not understand at the time but sure learned when Deja Vu beat them despite being "weaker".
9. 7:36 "They're all just so mean spirited to each other" coincidentally ignores all the other lore that stands against this, including but not limited to Zook's friendship with Hex, Zap inspiring Gill Grunt in the books, Spyro in the Champions comic mentioned above, Prism Break helping out on Trigger Happy's birthday, the Skylanders trying to figure out how to break Ignitor out of his armour, accepting Cynder as a Skylander, the Annual Battle Cry competition, no let's just forget all about that and focus on literally the only two instances where the Skylanders can be considered "not nice" to each other that most people can think of (there are possible other examples but they're so minor it's more like pranks and teasing than actually hating on each other, case in point Zook calling Hex "Hexy" or the Skylanders trying to make either Prism Break or Hex laugh), I'll break them both down in a sec.
10. 7:40 "It's just wild considering what I know" which arguably isn't a whole lot about the series, I'm sorry if this'll sound mean but you yourself admitted multiple times that you only ever check the wiki which isn't a definitive source for info, on multiple occasions you have shown that you don't actually fact check your claims which is exactly why I write all these comments.
11. 7:46 I don't know how many times I have to repeat this but to hammer it down properly, SKYLANDERS DON'T KILL, that was the exact reason why Spyro stopped Stump Smash from killing Kaos, if Skylanders start killing they will just grow as evil as the villains they're fighting, it's the same logic as with any comic book superheroes, as for the Secret Agents Secrets comic I already talked about this on that video but neither Nightfall nor Ghost Roaster ever said the word "kill", what they said is for Stormblade to "take down the bad guy", which is never interpreted as killing in any of the games or other media, Skylanders don't kill, we don't know exactly what happens to enemies when they are defeated but we know they ain't killed.
just look up Backseat Sakurai Mario Universe map and you know
How is it going
No way, I made this prediction!
Day7 of asking for a video covering the monster marsh villains.
8:43 wait Smash Bandicoot!? You mean Crash Bandicoot. Plus that TH-camr named smash bandicoot was an asshole
Have you talk about Turtle Skylanders please.
at the end, when you where talking about rift's, it made me think about fortnight chapter 2 season 5
Smash isn't canon to any of the franchises that show up in it, although weirdly enough smash is also a video game series about a kid playing with toys/ figures of characters but the kid is imagining that Link and Mario are fighting
You mean the BEST skylanders
Also smash is literally just the story of an autistic kid playing with his amiibos, the stories and especially the implications are meant to just be a kids imagination. Even brawl, which had like this super edgy story could be explained as the kid trying to put a fresh spin on his game and making it more fun for his older brain.
@@totallytraviciouswhy autistic? Any kid can have an imagination lol
