Comments
@AMW1998: You must be really good at this game, especially when you have it on the Wii.
Wow. I baet this game in 2 days.
I now have this game for wii.
I only choose one or the other cause its a good "sniping" by fans of one or the other.
I noticed something by the title art of the three games. Like olympic medals.
ANB: Bronze lettering
TEN: Silver
DotD: Gold
To be completely honest, I support Spyro x Cynder x Ember. Both are a "perfect match for him IMO. Don't ask why, I don't know. They just seem so.

It was hard never finshed 
@levanjess: I dunno, Spyro never makes his mind up, he gives no indication for liking Ember, but also no indication for liking Cynder....... I like Ember, but she has suchj an annoying voice, and as you can see...... 
Im a MASSIVE Cynder fan, so I would much prefer SpyroxCynder, but like you said, its a matter of opinion.

@Spyrofan37
they go perfect together? eh, that's an opinion.
even if it's canon (but not really, spyro didn't say he loved cynder back), it doesn't mean people HAVE to like it.
like, i prefer spyro x ember, and i don't care much for spyro x cynder. since spyro x cynder has a good 95% of the spyro fandom LOVING it, i'd get yelled at, saying "SPYRO AND CYNDER BELONG 2GETHER!111!!!!!!! U SUCK!11111" by quite a few people.
but point is, no one holds a grudge against you, it's just that spyro x cynder belonging together is an opinion. like spyrocynderfan7 said.

@spyrofan37: No one's holding a grude against you, I was just saying what I thought it was.....
Well, Spyro and Cynder do go perfect together. I still don't know why everyone has to start a grudge against me for saying one little thing...
@SSF:I was thinking that, after I posted it though. :L
I agree with you on the poitn that Cynder sort of randomly falls in love with him. It's more of one sided relationship, becuase when you switcvh between characters Cynders all lovbley and sweet towards spyro and spyro is like move it and watch and learn, he's dead arrogant towards Cynder, which isn't very nice, becuase I thught he was sweet. There was no need to get a grudge against her, she was only trying to help for god sake.

Cynder is not "the perfect match for Spyro" katrina, its open to opinion. Someome else could say Ember is the perfect match. Both answers are right, because the conflict is up to speculation. Personal preference.
And Spyro and Cynder are not brother and sister.
They were from the same clutch of eggs, but basically, dragons lay eggs, they are combined in a big pile and sent to the dragon temple for training and protection. Yes they are from the same cluster, but it does not necessarily mean they are brother and sister katrina.
Agreed with Super.

Spyro and Ember, Spyro and Cynder are all due to opinions, there are no rights and wrongs as people are putting it, they are both in different universes.
In my honest opinion, in the original trilogy, Spyro does not need a partner, from some cutscenes, he seems to shy away from that type of stuff.
In the LoS world, Cynder randomly falls in love with Spyro for no particular reason, they don't exactly give you a clear reason why. You can all speculate as much as you want to.
And in my opinion Cynderstar, that wouldn't be a good idea to add a random scene of Spyro and Cynder in LoS, it would just be pointless since Activision have moved away from it now, and it is targetted at kids who haven't played Spyro before, so they wouldn't even know what's going on, and it wouldn't be consistent for Skylanders.

I like Ember, but as the dark spyro said, Spyro and Ember don't go together. Cynder is the perfect match for Spyro, but as Ignitus says in ANB,
they come from the same cluster of eggs, which would be gross if they dated because Cynder is Spyro's sister if they are from the same cluster of eggs
