Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Despite going down in two hits and being a Flat Character, he turns an entire kingdom of dragons into statues, twice according to The Stinger of Spyro the Dragon, and created an entire magical army out of gems, so he's a pretty powerful magician.

His helmet also now resembles a Spanish morion with Viking horns.

The Reignited Trilogy goes back to a design resembling his Spyro 1 in-game model, albeit much more detailed and with new additions such as the belt from his artwork. A Hero's Tail's version of him resembles his artwork more closely, though the design of the armor is slightly different (most notably the large circular breastplates) and he's given Goofy Print Underwear. Costume Evolution: He wore a set of gold spiked armor in his first appearance, though his artwork depicted him with completely different silver armor instead.Collapsing Ceiling Boss: In A Hero's Tail, he can smash the ground with his club to make rocks fall from the ceiling.

Carry a Big Stick: He's always seen with a large mace, which doubles as a magic wand.He's later The Dragon to Red in A Hero's Tail. Berserk Button: Unless you want to become a crystal statue, don't call him ugly.Bald of Evil: He's seen without his helmet in the intro to the Spyro the Dragon remake, and he doesn't have a hair on his head.In A Hero's Tail, he's hurt by hitting him in his Goofy Print Underwear. Attack Its Weak Point: A particularly embarrassing one.Thanks to Reignited Trilogy being released on superior hardware, the dev team apparently ramped up the ugliness factor and made him outright abhorrent. Gnasty was never the best looker in the original Spyro series no Gnorc ever was. In the Reignited Trilogy, he was shown to genuinely hurt by the comment and can earn audience sympathy for it. Adaptational Sympathy: In the original game, he came off as more angry and spiteful for turning the dragons to stone for being called ugly, with the implication he was just using it as an excuse.Acrofatic: He's around 7 feet tall and 500 lbs, with skinny legs, but is able to outrun Spyro with ease during the chase.Gnasty's spell misses Spyro, who immediately sets out to torch his tush. A dragon calls him simple, non-threatening, and ugly in a TV interview, causing Gnasty to retaliate by casting a spell to trap every dragon in crystal, as well as turning stolen treasure into warriors. A powerful, brutish gnorc, he was banished from the Dragon Kingdom and allowed to reign free over the dragon dumping grounds, which became known as Gnasty's World. 'Spyro! It's been a while since I last defeated you in battle.'
