The second Spyro the Dragon game, released on the Play Station in 1999. Known as Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer in PAL territories. Spyro and Sparx decide they need some well-deserved R & R, so head off to the restful Dragon Shores. But their vacation is abruptly interrupted when an intrepid professor and his faun assistant, Elora, suck them to a far-off land called Avalar. The Professor's tinkering also released an evil sorcerer called Ripto, and they needed to find a Dragon to defeat him! Spyro's a bit smaller than they expected, but he'll do nonetheless--now the intrepid dragon needs to defeat Ripto so he can get back to his vacation!
