The Crystal Dragon Health Glitch is a glitch that only occurs in the original Spyro the Dragon.

Description

The Crystal Dragon Health Glitch causes Spyro to become invincible under certain circumstances. There are two ways to induce this glitch, but there are at least 15 occurrences in the game where this glitch is found. The most common one is found in Stone Hill.

First, the player must lower their health by confront a Ram, Shepherd, or by diving into water. Make sure that Sparx is gone, then find the Ram near the "Return Home Whirlwind. Also, make sure that the dragon is crystalized. Position yourself in front of the crystal statue so that the Ram charges you into the dragon.

When you die, the game bypasses this with the cutscene of the dragon. When the scene ends, you are invincible.

Pros and Cons

  • You will be able to fly over water without drowning.

Cons

  • Though you can use the Return Home portal, you will not be able to enter any portals (Dark Hollow, Town Square, etc.). However, you can still talk to the Balloonist. Before you perform the glitch, pull up the inventory screen and input the following cheat: Square, Square, Circle, Left, Right, Circle, Up, Right, Down. This will allow you to travel to any homeworld.
