Skylanders Giants Water Skylanders Guide: Wham Shell

“Thousands of years ago, the Giants fought epic battles in Skylands but were banished to Earth. With a new threat looming, it’s time to bring them back to join forces with the Skylanders to defeat KAOS. Only you can put them on the Portal of Power to unleash their strength in the ultimate battle to save Skylands!”

The Skylanders in Skylanders Giants are many and all come with some unique capabilities: players are able to use the all new Skylanders created specifically for Giants as well as the older Skylanders released for Spyro’s Adventure.

The Skylanders in Giants are divided into different types:

• Lightcore Figures

Lightcore Figures are Skylanders that light up when used on the Portal of Power: they also have a special Wow-Pow in-game ability

• Giants Figures

Giants Figures are the biggest Skylanders you can find, twice more powerful than regular Skylanders. Giants are the only Skylanders that can be used in the Feats Of Strength special events.

• Series 2 Figures

The Series 2 Figures are Skylanders from the previous Skylanders game who have received new stats and abilities

• Legendary Figures

Legendary Figures are Skylanders wearing a gold armor: they come with increased Damage and Armor stats.

• Special Edition

Special Edition figures are the rarest and hardest to find: they look like regular Skylanders but come with different colors, designs and abilities.

Skylander are also divided by different elements:

• Air
• Earth
• Fire
• Life
• Magic
• Tech
• Undead
• Water

All Skylanders figures will keep information about them stored inside of it, not inside the game: here’s everything that’s saved into the figure.

• Experience Points and Experience Level
• The “Nickname” that you give to your Skylander
• Currency
• Upgraded abilities and Statistics
• The Hat your Skylander is wearing
• The Quest ranking of your Skylander

It’s also possible to reset all the information by selecting Reset in the Manage section of the Skylander Info menu.

Before starting to analyze all the new Skylanders of Giants, we have to mention the fact that all the Skylanders from Spyro’s Adventure can be used in this game as well: you can also level them up to Level 15. The only difference from Giants Skylanders is that the older SKylanders don’t unlock Heroic Challenges: you will have to use Series 2 figures to do it.

• Wham Shell

Wham Shell is a Skylander originaly introduced in Spyro’s Adventure. The old figure is fully compatible with Skylanders Giants

“Skylands sea shanties tell of a crustacean king called Roland, who ruled over beautiful bubble buildings and priceless pearl pastures. Good King Roland had ruled peacefully throughout his reign, but tragedy was about to strike. The trolls had arrived. They began by building rigs and platforms to pump oil from the ocean bottom. Soon, they became even greeder and sent their submarines to invade this undersea realm. Roland’s son, Wham-Shell, was sent into a spluttering rage. He collected the magical mace of the giant clam kings and swam to the surface to shatter the trolls’ equipment into a million smithereens.

Wham-Shell’s successful skirmish soon reached the ears of Master Eon. Right there and then, he made the crafty crustacean a Skylander and king protector of all the seas.”
