smilie turned good at the end of ANB. She just seems bad because of her dark elements and only helps smilie escape in TEN because smilie took her and used her as bait for smilie to free smilie

I don't think that he turns evil in the end... I think cynder just turns good. Cause Spyro saved their world! Why would he do that if he was evil?

Not really, that's more fan speculation. It's not full canon until you hear Spyro say the cliche line too.
