In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, what are the names of Ripto's two minions?

The story behind the answer

In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, Ripto’s two minions are Crush and Gulp.

Crush and Gulp accompany the warlock Ripto after he is accidentally summoned to Avalar by a portal experiment conducted by Elora, Hunter, and the Professor. Ripto sees Avalar as a world without dragons and decides to conquer it, while his two large henchmen help enforce his rule.

They also serve as major boss opponents. After Spyro collects six talismans in Summer Forest, he battles Crush. Later, after traveling through Autumn Plains and gathering eight more talismans, Spyro faces Gulp. Their defeats weaken Ripto’s campaign and push the story toward its final confrontation in Winter Tundra.

Crush and Gulp are easy to mix up with other creatures and recurring characters in the series. Crush is the blue, heavily armored companion, while Gulp is the larger green creature capable of swallowing objects and attacks. Neither is one of Spyro’s allies: characters such as Elora, Hunter, and the Professor aid Spyro, whereas Crush and Gulp serve Ripto. The pair are among the game’s most recognizable new villains.
