- In this video, We talk about the dark, which out of all 10 of the different elements is the most forgotten. It only had 5 unique characters with various different variants, even the light element (which was announced at the same time as dark) had more figures. This is Dark | The Forgotten Skylanders Element
-----
To clarify: wave 2 of Imaginators released along side the release of the game
Don’t really know why every source makes it different? Cause technically wouldn’t it be apart of wave 1 then? I’m guessing there’s a reason but ig that’s just how things are
Apologies, hope this clears things up

What I don’t like about both the light and dark elements is that they were always treated as secondary elements. Both superchargers and imaginators gave them less figures than other elements despite them not being new anymore. (I guess it makes sense in superchargers due to each element only getting one option, but still it would’ve been cool to have an affordable spotlight or blackout option.)
I kinda feel like it’s the opposite and they were treated as special, more exclusive elements
That just sounds like an excuse for them to be lazy with character creation if I’m being honest.
There should’ve been a Dark Bazooker and a Light Sharpshot; I already gave them catch phrases:
“A BOOM in the night!”
“Reach for the Sun!”
It’s likely a balancing issue. When it comes to elements it usually hard to create weaknesses for dark and light outside of eachother so you always make them a secondary to be used alongside something else to amp it.
Often in early 2000 game development those elements were either too overpowered and overran whatever game you were playing once obtained or they weren’t useful at all.
@@BU2B as you mentioned all other elements had a repose as their second and I guess instead of breaking with that rule they decided to just make only one supercharger each. Imo the fault lies in trap team, cos even though having two trapmaster for each new element would be overkill, having two cores wouldve been totally fine
Hood sickle is my favorite. But that's because of trap team, and his voice in imaginators.
Same, never played him in Imaginators but I like his voice and attacks in Trap Team.
I also like him for the glitches
I think one of the reasons dark and light failed is because they tried to make them seem special by only really making one or two skylanders per game. I think the concept of light and dark is also super limiting, especially when the aesthetics they cover are already covered by fire and undead. If it were up to me I’d have had ice and electricity since they’re different enough from already exsisting elements (please ignore that ice themed water skylanders exist and like a single electric one exsist in the air element) to actually stand out. The properties of these elements would’ve also made combat much better.
Bro blackout is my favorite Skylander
He’s definitely up there for me but there’s so many Skylanders I like so it’s hard to choose
@@wet0wl oh cool
Poor you
@@bqckslash why
@@Zonatedjaguar90expensive probably
It sucks how few dark skylanders were released. There were knight mare, blackout, nightfall, hood sickle and starcast. Only 5. The first 8 elements in SSA has 4 in their element. Almost as many dark and light element skylanders.
I think Dark and Light Skylanders are cool as heck, and I don't mind them being slightly less common than the other elements, but I still think they were underutilized.
3:24
Hood-sickle: **monotone** whoo-hoo
Lol
I wouldn’t call it forgotten, I would call it overpriced as HELL!
Except for nightfall. Because nightfall sucks.
The most forgotten element is kaos
True. I personally don’t think there would’ve been enough to talk about to make a decent length video, but I’m probably wrong tbh.
I will say I love Nightfall's characterisation in the comics, making her a foil to the more excitable Stormblade and it what made me really want her. I also think another reason why the element was left in the dark (pun intended) was because the light element was a lot more memorable, the sunscraper spire level in trap team had a shocking plot twist, Blaster Tron was a huge fan-favourite villain character (more so than Hood Sickle) and the designs for the light elements were generally more creative. In fact Knight Light and Blastertron are both in my top 20 while I don't really have a favourite for the Dark element...
I think the reason dark has so little is because it’s meant to look evil while not being to scary for children which is a hard balance to do while with other elements it’s easier as you have more free range in design choices
It's so forgotten it didn't even get it's own Lorne Balfe composed theme
The Midnight Museum/The Dark Gate just has stock music that absolutely sucks
Sunscraper Spire was composed by Balfe for the level and light gates but dark got nothing
Also Nightfall slander smh i really like her moveset
Knocking enemies in the air and slashing them with her claws
The bottom path is my go to with her
Dont recolor hoodsicle white. It was the worst mistake in my life.
💀
so much nostalgia is hitting me with these Skylanders videos that are on my recommend recently
I remember seeing the dark and light dragons in a toysRus years ago and begged my dad to buy them, and after a bunch of begging he relented, I am still thankful for him for that I know he didn’t have much money then but skylanders was my passion and I still have an entire closet with them. I honestly miss playing but I fell of from playing it after racing, I couldn’t really get into it but still got creationators and I still need to beat that and that was years ago
the element wasnt forgotten but they wanted light and dark to be special and only had like less then 2 games to release them considering there level packs in trap team where only at the very end
I guess you could say it was always over*shadowed*
Laugh.
my theory is that Light and Dark were gonna have a bigger placement in the Skylanders universe, probably being a major thing in the 5th game, but for some reason, the idea was scrapped and they kinda just made a few figures of the element to keep those fans happy. Still don't have any Light or Dark skylanders to this day.
Why did they get rid of it?
So many characters would fit into these elements more than their current ones
Bit of a paragraph here, but I really like the Dark element, so read on if you wish.
I didn't put much effort into my Imaginators until i decide to get a Dark creation crystal last year. I created a Dark Smasher named 'Dusk' in contrast to a Light Smasher made by CrystalBlaizer named 'Dawn'. The story is that they're both siblings created when two piece of Light and Dark Traptanium from the explosion that released the elements fell into an Imaginite cave. When they manifested, they immediately went their separate ways, but found themselves fighting each other on occasion. Dawn, a being of light, joined the Skylanders cuz she wanted to fight evil and protect good, the usual. Dusk, a being of darkness, was offered a position when captured instead of going to prison. He took the position because he saw it as an excuse to cause havoc and commit violence without suffering repercussions.
Light came out swinging with Knightlight and then every skylander after in the light element is a snorefest
Dude, I remember hearing that the dark Skylanders were released and getting pumped. But then when we got to Toysrus they said that they only got a very limited amount and had been sold out for a month. Dark, my favorite element, the element that I never got to play.
Skylanders trap team was peak
Dark is a forgotten element? Damn it was my favorite element because of how cool the movesets were (the dark imaginators had my favorite elemental moves)
I personally love the light and dark elements for skylanders. I remember the mystery surrounding them and due to the fact I was fairly young at the time, even when it was "confirmed" it was still so mystical. At the time I was more interested in the light element and was the pack I ended up getting, and my friend got dark. Recently I've been replaying trap team and have been enjoying using nightmare. (Unfortunately my wallet cant sustain the purchase of the dragons)
A more forgotten element is kaos only having 3 to my knowledge
There's also this Pandergast element in Skylanders Superchargers Racing, assigned their exclusive vehicles Clunker and Blunder Bucket. Their intro animation displays an icon of Pandergast's hat and glasses, instead of an icon of an element like Tech or Earth. It doesn't have an official name so I call it the Pandergast element.
Wild seeing Skylanders content that doesn't feel like its been designed for small children.
0:03 everyone when giants came out: YEAAHH :D
@@megamixelfan WHO REMEMBERS THE ERASERS???
Love to see people talking about Skylanders
I'm lucky I got pretty much all of the dark figures I wanted back in Skylanders hayday. Id hate to pay the aftermarket prices for these.
Especially blackout. He's probably one of my favorite Skylanders, both in design and moveset.
I just sold all my goddamn superchargers skylanders and didn't realize that there was adventure mode. Sure I don't have the wii U, but I had like 10 skylanders and vehicles and they only sold for 4 bucks. What the hell was I thinking, I want to die. Dark spitfire was in there, he alone should have been 3 times more than the entire thing was sold for. Damn it Games Ahoy.
Poor dark. I like the dark ones more than light. Okay, Astro Blast and Blaster Tron are pretty cool.
Dude you deverse so many more subscribers/views (you got both from me at least lol). This was the first video I’ve ever seen from you and the quality blew me away! Keep going and you’ll get somewhere!
Why do people dislike Nightfall? She literally has an upgrade that makes her completely invulnerable and deal pretty good damage.
That’s what saying
I was so happy when I got the light and dark expansions. I loved skylanders so much
I remember the dark and light elements. It’s been so long
Fun fact the dark and light elements were originally planned to be in ssa but were unfortunately cut
I feel it was a good decision as it made them unique in Trap Team
needs more views bruh this was funny af
I got major scott the woz vibes from this video, hes one of my favourites. Keep this up and youll go far!
Loved your hilarious to-the-point delivery through the video, great stuff!
Also funny birb
Poor dark.
It's like one of my favorites.
We’ll light and dark are equal in the amount of stuff they received and if anything dark is more known in a way as in trap team 3 dark villains are in the main story while light has 2 it’s 3rd in nightmare express
Dark is my favorite element and Knight Mare is my favorite Skylander. It sucks too, because each of Light and Dark only have 5 Skylanders. I believe this mostly happened because of the rushed development of Trap Team combined with the oversaturation issues which continued into Superchargers and Imaginators.
I didn’t realize the Dark element wasn’t in the other games, Trap Team was by far my favorite and I always played that one
I will not tolerate Nighfall slander
Nightfall is my favorite Dark Skylander.
(Due to the fact that I also had horrible hair when I was young hence her soul gem being called “Bad Hair Day”😂.)
I remember when it hadn't been added yet and there were the ? Element gates and some of them you could glitch into if you have the right Skylander or villain with a certain ability
Given Light only have one more figure than dark, I would say it’s just as forgotten, also I will give some element changes in Imaginators were weird, it’s because their original element was taken by a more memorable character, Earth already being taken by Golden Queen, and Undead being taken by Wolfgang, Grave Clobber, Tae Keon Crow, and Hood Suckle were just more popular than any other fire, water, or the other dark villains
In Skylanders 7, Brawl & Chain will be an Earth element and Eye Scream will be an Undead element. Because Water being taken by The Gulper and Dark being taken by Nightshade.
@@aaronkurtz4857 first we would need to GET Skylanders 7
2:54, Blast Shift is still op, And there are still a few other viable options outside of Senseis and Imaginators.
Hood Sickle performed the glitch of getting into the ? elemental gate in Trap team and became part of the element in Imaginators
Intentional or not it’s a not I agree that dark fits his character much better
1:16 you say that to my damn face.
He likely just spams the primary attack
that dark pyramid crystal was actually released in a single pack, the only exclusive crystal in that 8 pack is the magic claw crystal
Knight mare and knight light are the two reasons I’m getting back into skylanders, I can finally find them lol
i rlly wish i could find blackout as hes impossible to find/buy
He's not worth it spotlight is much better blackout is below avreage
“This is when shot reality starts hitting the fan” proceeds to throw game at a ac unit
i am in severe debt because i bought spotlight and blackout i had to sell my neighbors kids, anyways great video!
Good investment. The neighbor can just make more.
I think the most interesting thing about Dark that can be said is ironically Nightfall. More specifically the gigantic bug related to her in Superchargers. I don't remember the details fully, but as far as I remember: She's actually bugged and completely incompatible with Superchargers on the day 1 version for all consoles and requires an update to work. She was also recalled for that reason and properly released in a later wave once they could fix the bug.
This actually means that the Wii port of Superchargers Racing is the only game that is completely impossible to fully complete the collection legitimately, as it was unable to be patched. Whoops…
Small correction, After the recall following variants of Nightfall were compatible with superchargers racing on wii, therefore making it possible to complete the collection. It’s also not the only game where it’s impossible to complete the collection legitimately because of the canceled creation crystals in imaginators.
@@BU2B Oh yeah true tbf. Still very funny though
Makes me wonder how that only happened in the fifth game, you’d think it’d be something that would’ve gone down in SSA
@@BU2B Because it's probably a case of SSA probably having the longest dev cycle of any of them, after that it became rushed out yearly, and by alternating studios each game was a 2 year dev cycle. It was inevitable but impressive it took 5 games for the QC to degrade enough for it to slip through
I do believe it’s impossible to 100% SSA on the Wii though. So you can’t win them all
Haha talking bird makes me laugh.
me too bro me too
The designs for the dark skylanders were and are still cool af to me
Dark and Light should have been there from the beginning.
I feel what made them special is the fact that they were created by the destruction of Cloudcracker Prison and the whole deal with Skylanders is light vs dark so in the first half of the franchise it makes sense that they’d be sides rather than elements
2:55 I do here that criticism a lot but in defence of that this is the only game you can play as the senseis so you probably wouldn’t want to play as older characters.
imaginators is a fun game and all the senseis in it are awsome
Hood Sickle is still my second favorite skylander overall, so I wont be forgetting dark anytime soon at least 🙏🏻
the true forgotten element is the pandergast element 💀
I actually didn't know Dark and Light elements were real in the game until like 2 years ago since I didn't buy any of the games after Swap Force (I did buy each starter pack from the depths of the internet recently though and found these 2 elements at the same time lols)
i love hood sickle so much that i make headcanons and au;s of him and i think i need my medication two lol
You are the Scott the Woz of Skylanders!
I think undead element fits better for hood sikle as he is litteraly a reaper but that's just my opinion
ANOTHER UNDERRATED SKYLANDERS TH-camR 🗣️‼️‼️
"I want Mortal Kombat's Kabal!"
"We have Mortal Kombat's Kabal at home"
Mortal Kombat's Kabal at home: 1:16
For what it's worth - hood sickle is one of the most powerful characters in imaginators and the dark creation crystal is by far the best one. The rest of the dark Skylanders are either mid or just bad. Light just got stronger characters in trap team but they're still nothing special.. dark was actually given a bit more love overall imo because of how good it was in imaginators compared to light. But as you said - imaginators kinda sucks (though the games not awful imo it's just the fact that all my old characters suck in it).
this video just unleashed a section of my fish brain I thought was lost to time
In my entire skylander collection, as a casual collector, there is only 1 Dark “Skylander”… the pyramid dark imagination crystal thing
Very cool video :)
I’m kind of disappointed that they called her “nightfall” and not “nightro”.
Would that make Light the 2nd forgotten element? It only has 1 more figure.
technically, yes
Am I gonna get attacked if I say, Skylanders Imaginators is a guilty pleasure of mine??
valid agree
1:52 because it was dark stelth elf thats the super charger
And i still dont get it
My childhood man I wished we could go back to 2014 man
I hated the two new elements. We already have spooky skylanders. And the whole “light” thing kinda feels taken up by, oh, I don’t know, firemagicairgears.
Love these skylanders videos, you know your shit.
Bros been banging out skylander content
Best element because of blackout
Chop-chop is still cool
Blackout my fav skylander I sold all my skylanders besides blackout cuz he my fav
At this point I’m just watching for the bird lore
Hood Sickleeee
I think that this duck plush of yours isn't supposed to be scary, but it is scary as hell. Great video, though!
What should have happened for dark and light senseis in imaginators is two villains and one new sensei. It could have been Luminous as the second light villain, and Tae Kwon Crow. "But if Tae Kwon Crow is the second dark one who's the fire one?" You ask. Chef Pepper Jack. He should have been a playable character because he's one of the main villains in trap team. He even got his own race track in superchargers. Maybe he could have been a bazooker or a quickshot.
The problem with that is that every other element only got one villain, so I’d rather make a new character for those 2 elements
@@BU2B But having two villains makes the element feel more special, and it allows chef Pepper Jack to be a fire sensei.
Do we really need light and dark elements to be special? They’ve been in the game for long enough by now.
@@BU2B Technically they're special already because they only have two senseis instead of three. I just think more skylanders would be cool.
Yes, the worst part about the element is that it was treated as “special” (secondary) after trap team
I did not forget, star cast was my favorite
He was awesome
I actually have the dark type imagination crystal funny enough I didn't know it was worth anything tbh
Great video
I default to playing as Donkey Kong (Life) and Bowser (Fire).
ngl for me it was the other way around. I found light way more forgotten... odd
Idk knightlight and blastertron pretty memorable
Guys, there’s an even more forgotten element!
They both are. Not one more than the other.
@@Sonic-gy7kq The Element of Surprise, of course.
No way bro thats my favorite element
I have subscribed
Imaginators doesn't suck. Granted Superchargers was a way better finale and Imaginators may have a pretty lack luster story and bad lore, but the actual gameplay as well as the sensais are really solid.
I’m think of a dark skylander name Kanenight he’s similar to anubis he attack with 2 flails as weapons and summon shadow Egyptian dogs The Head Of The Pack!
Overall good video, but that was total Nightfall slander. Her hair looks great.
Also, why do you hate Imaginators so much?
it hurt my feelings
@@Andreslmaolol How??? 😭😭😭😭
@@AndreslmaololI too felt like Dark and Light elements were forgotten, but you know what I actually came up with my own idea of a way to bring them back to the spotlight
My idea of a Skylanders spin-off game that is.
My favourite element
I have 7 Dark element Skylanders in my Collection
Nightmare isn't dlc it's purchasable content.
Idk I wanted to think of something...
