Original Spyro series

History

Dragon Eggs are delivered to the Dragon Realms by Fairies and only hatch on the Year of the Dragon; something that is accompanied by a large celebration called the Year of the Dragon Festival. They appear as collectibles in the following games:

Spyro the Dragon

The eggs are mostly pinkish with spots on them. They are in the hands of Egg Thieves, who have stolen the eggs and there is no other way to get hold of them. There are only 12 in total to collect and a certain amount must be retrieved in order to get past some of the Balloonists.

Spyro: Year of the Dragon

The Sorceress sent Bianca and the Rhynocs to steal the eggs while the Dragons were sleeping, making eggs the main collectible in this game. The eggs have changed in appearance and are now white and gray with purple and pink speckles. In this game, the eggs are either found in the worlds or rewarded after completing a task or mini-game.

Egg Thieves are still around and still hold a few of them captive. There are 150 eggs (151 for the the twins) to be rescued, the last of which hatches into twins. you can obtain eggs in various places or doing various tasks for the character you are doing them for (difficulty varies between levels).

Spyro: A Hero's Tail

Spyro was asked by Mrs. Shoutfire to find the missing Dragon Eggs that had been stolen once again by Egg Thieves. This time, they were marked with certain patterns. Once you completed a full set, you were given a special prize which was dependent on which set you collected.

Spyro: Shadow Legacy

Kaitlin asks Spyro to help find her missing egg. After he finds it, she tells him to find 30 more. Kaitlin teaches Spyro a spell to turn into an egg afterwards. The eggs in this game are light blue with dark blue speckles. There area total of 34 eggs. There is a glitch which makes you get unlimited eggs and one to be rolling in water.

The Legend of Spyro series

In The Legend of Spyro series, the dragon eggs made a brief appearance at the beginning of The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning. However, The Dark Master sent his dark forces to destroy all of the eggs to prevent the next purple dragon, Spyro, from being born. Ignitus took Spyro's egg and safely sent it down a stream, hoping for the best. By the time Ignitus returned to the Temple, the other Guardians were overpowered and all of the other dragon eggs were smashed by the Apes.

Cynder's egg was taken by Gaul to be corrupted by The Dark Master, who needed a dragon born from the Year of the Dragon to open a gateway to his prison in Convexity.

It was revealed that the dragons' very survival depended on the eggs that were crushed by the Apes.

Skylanders series

In the 3DS version of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, the Skylanders have to collect dragon eggs that are scattered throughout The Wingwarrens and return them to their nests to complete one of the objectives to get a Radiance Crystal.
