    7:32 Fisticuffs explanation is kinda dumb but his hole thing is punching and when you punch someone in the eye they have a black eye and black is accosiated with the dark element

    I always felt like Nightshade felt more dark than magic, because all of his tricks revolve around shadows.

    The reason i believe tae kwan crow and night shade are dark is for a similar reason. Ninjas and thieves tend to hide in the shadows be in the dark. all of that. but thats just my guess

  • @DevastadorGaming
    @DevastadorGaming 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Nightshade can also be dark due to him belong a thief since area take place in a museum if i remember correctly. And thief/bandit often steal at night which explains his dark element.

  • @RipplyAnemone67

    Fisticuffs is dark as his saying of “lights out” is because of him basically giving black eyes.

  • @nightmangle8228

    What I’m curious about is if there’s ever a new Skylanders game and another 10 villains get figures which would ones should they pick and what elements would they get?

    • @lightning_round
      @lightning_round 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      My picks would probably be
      Life: Broccoli Guy
      Water: Gluper/Chill Bill
      Fire: Chef Pepper Jack
      Magic: Bomb Shell
      Tech: Threat Pack
      Air: Dream Catcher
      Earth: Cuckoo Clocker
      Undead: Masker Mind
      Light: Luminos
      Dark: Nightshade

  • @wonderfulfam2141
    @wonderfulfam2141 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I the problem with updating the game was that they were discs, so they couldn't actually update the game I don't think. Instead they'd have to recode the entire game which people would have to buy just so they could use the light and dark elements, which I personally don't think it's worth buying an entire extra game for
    Also I personally think the dark villains do fit the dark element (all of them) pretty well. Each of them fit into a different view of dark
    Eye scream depicts something spooky. Which could work for both undead and dark
    Fisticuffs represents the ruffian type of dark. Like how a vast majority of dark type pokemon are the dark type because of behavior, not actually darkness or nighttime
    And Tae Kwon crow and nightshade represents the stealthy aspect of dark. Both doing it in different way. Nightshade in the form of a thief and Tae Kwon crow in the form of a ninja/samurai

  • @Blaze16159
    @Blaze16159 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    So, one thing you didn’t take into consideration is their evolved form. For some, like tae kwon crow, the evolved form may make them look more like their element. Same with the move set when they are captured.

    I have literally never played this game, only got as far as skylanders 1 and giants but just looking at eye five and eye scream they're totally based on dreams and nightmares
    Eye five looks like a creature you'd see in a dream and eye scream a nightmare

    I'll explain why the light and dark villians are the way they are:
    Lob goblin: he uses electric magnetic bombs. Electric can be associated with light so it makes sense and I don't see him fitting in any other element besides light
    Eye five: okay yeah it seems like the only reason they made him light is because he's happy and has a secondary electric attack that powers him up. He doesn't really fit any element
    Blaster tron: I think a futuristic robot is perfect for the light element. Not all robots have to be the tech element and he his design is unique enough to make him not be tech. He has the light ray too.
    Eye scream: I think eye scream fits undead more than dark but she does fit the element nun the less.
    Fisticuffs: they presumably gave him the dark element because of the lights out joke. Hes also quite edgy compared to the other evilkins so that could also be a contributing factor.
    Tae Kwon Crow: hes a ninja bird. Dark suites him perfectly
    Luminous: perfect
    Nightshade: WHY DO YOU THINK NIGHTSHADE SHOULD BE MAGIC?!
    He's a theif thats sneaky and uses a bunch of shadow attacks that SCREAM dark element.

    For luminous and nightshade they could have been with the rider but like never fight them in the main game but most likely just them see us how strong we them when the pack came out we know their element could have also hide them with the riders never knowing what they look like and the golden queen could only say their element are very strange and not she had ever see before

  • @Haursite
    @Haursite 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +19

    To be fair, a lot of the other non-light and non-dark trappable villains have questionable elements. For example, Cuckoo Clocker in life, Tussle Sprout in earth, Bomb Shell in magic, Brawlrus in tech, Slobber Trap in water to name a few. I'm not saying that there isn't some logic for why these villains are a part of these elements, but I feel like your issue with light and dark villains not fitting their respective elements isn't exclusive to these two elements
    Also, Eye Five and Lob Goblin being a part of the light element due to their attacks involving electricity is actually more justifiable than you might think. High Volt, the tech supercharger, was originally going to be a part of the light element because his attacks used electricity. A lot of his upgrade paths have light-based puns because of this
    Regardless, this was still a great video. Keep up the good work
