Playstyle:  Spyro is a lightweight character that doesn’t have a lot of range. This doesn’t mean he is lacking in power; in fact, he is quite capable of chasing down opponents and dealing large amounts of DPS. His lack of a decent projectile can be a problem, however, as Spyro can be easily harassed from afar with longer-range moves. Despite his light weight, Spyro actually has fairly decent horizontal recovery, though his vertical recovery is somewhat lacking, making him very vulnerable to attacks with meteor-like attributes.

Passive: Spyro has 2 mid-air jumps, and is able to glide with his USpecial.

Jab/Combo: Spyro slashes with his two front claws, then spins around to deal a final blow with his tail.
F Tilt: Spyro performs a small headbutt forwards.
D Tilt: Spyro swipes forwards with his wings.
U Tilt: Spyro lowers his head, then flips it quickly upwards to deal damage and upwards knockback to any opponents hit directly by the horns. Good for setting up aerial combos.

Dash Attack: Spyro rolls into a ball to deal damage to opponents he runs into.
Get-Up Attack: Spyro spins around to smack people with his tail.
Edge Attack: Spyro slashes as he crawls back onto the stage.

F Smash: Electric Breath - Spyro breathes electric breath, dealing multiple hits of damage and very briefly stunning opponents for the last hit. The range is the same as Spyro’s fire breath.
D Smash: Spyro flaps his wings, dealing damage close to Spyro, while also creating a windbox on both sides of Spyro that pushes opponents backwards.
U Smash: Ice Breath - Spyro breathes an icy breath upwards, dealing multiple hits of damage above Spyro. If opponents are hit by the entire attack, they are frozen for a time.

N Air: Spyro extends his wings to deal damage around himself.
F Air: Spyro slashes forwards with his claw.
B Air: Spyro kicks behind himself.
D Air: Spyro spits three small fireballs beneath him, two diagonally (front and back), and one directly downwards. The fireballs are spit in succession, not all at once, and the directions fired first, second, and third can vary.
U Air: Spyro spins around and slaps opponents with his tail above him.

Grab: Standard grab with his front claws.
Pummel: Spyro headbutts the grabbed opponent.
F Throw: Spyro hurls the opponent away with his horns.
B Throw: Spyro kicks his opponents away using his hind legs.
D Throw: Spyro jumps then lands on the opponent with his hind legs.
U Throw: Spyro launches the opponent upwards with his horns.

N Special: Flame Breath - When the B button is only tapped, Spyro breathes fire, dealing multiple hits of damage in a short range in front of Spyro. This move comes out quickly with almost no startup lag. If the B button is held, Spyro can charge up a fireball attack that is a somewhat slow-moving projectile that deals damage based on the amount of the charge. Spyro can hold the current level of charge for later use by spot dodging or rolling. Tapping the B button while having a charged fireball has Spyro fire the fireball, while pressing the B button will have Spyro continue charging. Fully charging a fireball will have Spyro automatically stop charging; the B button can be tapped to fire the fireball again.
S Special: Charge - Spyro begins charging forwards at a speed faster than his normal run speed. Spyro deals damage simply by running into opponents. This attack can be stopped by pressing the special button again or by taking damage that causes any kind of flinching, or by running into an opponent. When used in-air, Spyro gains a slight horizontal boost, then quickly plummets while traveling at a forwards diagonal at a fast pace. While charging, Spyro can jump slightly, though he can’t double jump. If allowed, Spyro can easily fall off edges and to his doom.
D Special: Headbash - If used on the ground, Spyro will jump slightly then slam horns-first into the ground. If used in the air, Spyro will perform a somersault then slam head-first into the ground. Spyro deals damage when he hits opponents with his horns. The attack functions similarly to Yoshi’s or Bowser’s DSpecial.
U Special: Glide and Hover - Spyro gains a short boost, then begins to glide. If the special button is pressed during the glide, Spyro will end the glide early then hover a tad, granting a last-ditch vertical recovery. Spyro is able to use his side special and down special during a glide to end it early and attack out of it.

Final Smash: Power-Up Gate - Spyro enters through a power-up gate, granting Spyro several buffs to his specials for a short time. Spyro is also invincible during the time.

Neutral Special: Superflame - Spyro can now shoot fireballs without charging, and these projectiles travel faster and deal more damage.
Side Special: Supercharge - Spyro’s charge becomes incredibly fast, and deals much more damage and knockback to opponents.
Up Special: Superfly - Spyro can now fly indefinitely. Pressing the neutral special button will end the flight early, and pressing the A button will allow Spyro to shoot fireballs while in flight.
Down Special: Remains unchanged, though deals more damage when it hits.

Taunt: Spyro shakes himself clean.
