In Skylanders Academy, the training institution for new generations of Skylanders, fellow students Spyro the dragon, Stealth Elf, and Eruptor prepare for graduation. Unfortunately, Spyro's oversized ego tempered by Master Eon's constant praise gets in the way of his becoming a Skylander when he throws a party for the whole school and oversleeps, failing his final exam while his friends pass on. Meanwhile, Kaos, longtime enemy of the Skylanders, sneaks into the Academy to locate the map to the Core of Light and steals the Book of Skylanders, freezing all the Skylanders and leaving Spyro the only one able to stop him. Though he is nearly defeated, he manages to unfreeze the book and release the others who manage to defeat Kaos. For his courage and newfound humility, Master Eon makes Spyro a full-fledged Skylander. | ||||||

The newly formed core Skylander team faces issues when Spyro's impulsive attitude clashes with Jet-Vac's rigid "Skylander Way" approach. Jet-Vac decides to move into their house to try and drill Spyro into a more refined Skylander, but his method of thorough planning causes more problems when they arrive almost too late to save the Falling Forest from burning. Eon reminds Jet-Vac that instinct is just as important as training for a Skylander, and Jet-Vac and Spyro reconcile their differences in time to stop Kaos, attempting to use a hypnotized Hugo to infiltrate the Relics Room disguised as a restaurant mascot, and the team celebrates by making Jet-Vac's move-in permanent. | ||||||

To help them get to the heart of this issue, Eon's old friend Sensei King Pen shows them how to overcome their obstacle by giving them the opportunity to build a new teammate, the result being a banana-headed Skylander named Cy. Though he is equipped with all of their powers, Cy still struggles as each of the Skylanders show him how to use their powers insisting their style is superior. This leads to more of the same when a real Fire Viper attacks the Academy, leading the Skylanders to realize they must combine their powers together and finally attain victory. | ||||||

She soon finds it in Dreamcatcher, who embraces evil and uses her powers to plague dreams, but Stealth Elf uses her skill and cunning to defeat her at her own game in the Dream Realm. Dreamcatcher is expelled from the Academy and arrested along with Kaos, once again trying to sneak in, while Elf returns in time to give a rousing speech to the Academy. | ||||||

At the same time, Eon is rendered completely invisible and forgotten by everyone at the Academy, and with no power or ability to command respect, he decides to leave the Academy.

The Skylanders are able to get the book and return back to the academy where Eon uses it to summon a portal back to Crash's world, however using it corrupts Eon with darkness. | ||||||

She uses a powerful spell to knock out the Doomraiders and leave with Glumshanks, but is forced to leave the book behind. The Doomraiders, with Kaos, retreat as the Skylanders return with the Core of Light's energy to cure Eon.

Production[]
At an Investor Day presentation on November 6, 2015, Activision Blizzard announced the formation of Activision Blizzard Studios, a film production subsidiary dedicated to creating original films and television series. Headed by former The Walt Disney Company executive Nick van Dyk, Activision Blizzard Studios would look to produce and adapting Skylanders into a film and television series; the latter being called Skylanders Academy, which started airing on October 28, 2016 on Netflix.[12]
The series is a spin-off, said to be separate from the storyline of the games with no direct tie-ins to sequels. In addition, the different voice cast is made to give the show its own separate identity. However despite the changes, Richard Horvitz, Jonny Rees, Bobcat Goldthwait, Billy West, Fred Tatasciore, and Courtenay Taylor are the only actors from the games to reprise their roles as Kaos, Jet-Vac, Pop Fizz, Food Fight, Snap Shot, and Hex respectively.[13] Patrick Warburton would later go on to reprise his role as Captain Flynn in the third season.[14] Showrunner Eric Rogers provided the voice of Crash Bandicoot due to his creative partners being impressed on giving the character an Australian Accent during a temp-track he recorded.
The trailer for the second season was released on September 19, 2017.[15] Mark Hamill was originally considered to reprise his role as Malefor, a character that originated from The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, but was unable to as he was busy filming Star Wars: The Last Jedi.[16] Flynn, Sal, Fiesta, Tree Rex, Jawbreaker, The Gulper and Dr. Krankcase were characters planned for to appear in the second season, but were cut due to budget reasons.[17] Flynn himself, would later go on to appear in the following season a year later.
The trailer for the third season was released on September 18, 2018.[18] During production of Season three, Eric Rogers stepped down as showrunner and was replaced by both Clayton Sakoda and Ian Weinreich in his absence, and due to his departure, Rogers was unable to reprise Crash Bandicoot and was later replaced by Rhys Darby.[19]
