“That Sword isn´t just for show.”

    —Game description

Shadow Dukes are living suits of armor and heavily armed enemies in Skylanders: Giants. The most notable Shadow Duke is Pipsqueak's bodyguard, who serves as the arena boss in Molekin Mountain. They move slowly but deal significant damage by slamming their swords into the ground, creating a burst of electricity. Shadow Dukes are only encountered as regular enemies in the Giants version of Darklight Crypt.

Trivia

• In Darklight Crypt in Skylanders: Giants, they serve as replacements for the Haunted Knights.
• Each enemy in Skylanders: Giants appears with a description only the first time. Shadow Dukes are the only enemies in the game where the description appears every time, mainly because they are also a boss.
• In alpha builds of Giants, Shadow Dukes reuse the models of Shadow Knights, along with the Shadow Knights' description.^[1]
