So I recently did a calc, as well as some thinking, and I have a couple of possible upgrades for Skylanders. First is a possible upgrade to the low & mid tiers.
Boris Boils an ocea
In Skylanders Trap Team 3DS, there's a Nightmare Villain called Boris Blisterbottom, a Chompy who's stated to be capable of boiling an ocean. I calculated this feat here https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:Vrokorta/Skylanders:_Boris_Boils_an_Ocea, and it was Continent level.
From my viewpoint, this would scale to all Skylanders, as any one of them can beat Boris (he's the first boss too). It would also scale to most villains, since they'd be comparable, if not superior to Boris (by this point, nearly the whole cast would scale, sans NPCs & fodder minions). If we decide not to go with this, then I'd say it should still scale to the Trap Masters (who're meant to fight these kinds of villains), the Giants (who're regarded as some of the strongest Skylanders), & all major villains (since it'd be weird to think that Kaos, the Doom Raiders, or the Dream Sheep would be inferior to a boss like this).
The Darkness
At the moment, we scale the Darkness to Spyro, & the implication that he can destroy planets. However, the Darkness served as the power source to a machine that could consume all of Skylands. They mention several times that the Darkness is going to consume everything, leaving nothing left. A few quotes to make sure I get my point across.
"They can't be allowed to use it against me, and stop my plan to consume all of the sky in Skylands!" -The Darkness (telling Kaos that the Skylanders plan to use the Core of Light against him)
"... if you eat all the sky, doesn't that mean there won't be any left in Skylands?" -Glumshanks (responding to the above quote)
"If there's no Skylands, there won't be anything left to be the ultimate evil overlord... over." -Glumshanks (elaborating his point)
All found right here: https://youtu.be/YyRkwyVeweQ?t=1690
"Then what are you waiting for? Press that button, and destroy Skylands forever." -The Darkness (getting impatient waiting for Kaos to activate the Cataclysmic Megarift that will destroy Skylands)
"Reactor core engaged. Megarift sequence initiated. Utter & complete destruction of Skylands commencing." -The Sky Eater (after Kaos activates the Megarift)
"Cheer up Kaos. You've got a front-row seat to the end of Skylands..." -The Darkness (glad that everything's going according to plan)

Supporting statements:
"Then, without warning, all of Skylands began to quake, and a wave of fear swept over the land..." -Pomfrey Lefuzzbuttom (describing the Darkness' first arrival into Skylands after gaining power from the Spell Punks)
There's a whole spiel that runs from 47:03 to 51:10: https://youtu.be/eFGspGOmvJo?t=2823
"It's dark power was beyond comprehension. It shattered mountains & bridges with casual disdain. The Darkness' rage was earth-shaking and all-consuming..." -Pomfrey Lufuzzbuttom (describing the Darkness' wrath)
Found here: https://youtu.be/eFGspGOmvJo?t=3159
"Their battle echoed across all Skylands, trading blows that shattered islands in their wake" -Pomfrey (describing the original battle between the Darkness & the Skylanders)
Found here: https://youtu.be/eFGspGOmvJo?t=3439
"The real trick is gonna be upgrading the Rift Engine with the power of a jillion lightning bolts, and not causin' a chain reaction that could destroy the entire universe! Literally." -Mags (explaining how she'll upgrade the Skylander's vehicle)
Found here: https://youtu.be/ZuHwOmtK01M?t=1069
So, at best, this could upgrade our high tiers to 3-A. This would scale to the Darkness, the Sky Eater, the Superchargers, & the Core of Light.
