Design, as in what the character looks like.
What is your favorite mini design?

Mini: Breeze

This seems more like favorites than creativity and that's how I'm going to do it...

Core SSA: Dino-Rang/Camo
Core SG: Flashwing
Core SSF: Pop Thorn/Star Strike
Core STT: Spotlight/Blackout
Giant: Scarlet Ninjini
Swap: Nitro Freeze Blade
Trap Master: Jawbreaker
Supercharger: Splat
Mini: Weeruptor
Lightcore: Shroomboom/Hex

Cores: Dino Rang/Trigger Happy/Slam Bam, Shroomboom/Pop Fizz, Pop Thorn/Dune Bug/Fryno, Tread Head/Rocky Roll/Chopper;
Giants: Eye Brawl;
Swappers: Hoot Loop/Grilla Drilla;
Trap Masters: Blastermind/Short Cut;
SuperChargers: Spitfire/Splat (waiting to see Smash Hit).

Keep in mind those are not my favorites, it's just the character designer that I aspire to be speaking.I know other people don't care and will turn this into a popularity contest but again most people can't tell archetype from design.

Cores - Camo and Blades, a bit of a tie there. Proof that simple doesn't mean generic.
Giants - Tree Rex, showing that just because Treants are overused doesn't mean you can't do something new with them.
Swap Force - Freeze Blade. Not a carbon copy of every other swapper in body type, and really unusual looking and memorable.
Trap Team - Blastermind. Yeah, a disappointment all around in gameplay, but his design definately stands out from everything and it just has a nice balance to itself without looking goofy despite the giant helmet.
Superchargers, as of now - Fiesta, definately, and with so many skeletons around he's definately a refreshing sight. He's also the only one of the VV characters to sport a convincing Dreamworks grin instead of looking like they got punched in the jaw.
Minis - Barkley, kinda obvious with Tree Rex here as well, for the same reasons AND as well for working despite the change in archetype for not being a Giant.

Core: Wind-Up; that one was hard, but I chose him because his design is just something new. I mean he's a toy AS a toy.
Giant: Ninjini; two things that can be perfectly combined as a name and a character.
Swapper: Doom Stone; I love his design overall, a warrior that's based on greek buildings and mythology, I love it.
Trap Master: Gearshift; just love the idea of her having a giant gear as a weapon.
Supercharger: Fiesta/Splat; I couldn't quite decide on this one, so I listed both. Fiesta has just a great design and looks like a good bunch of fan to play as, while on the other hand, I really like that they made a skylander with a paintbrush. I also love how they colored those two, they really stick out to me.
Mini: Hijinx; it's just so ironic that such a dark and serious character like Hex has a cute mini version that dances

Cores- Ghost Roaster
Giants- Crusher
Swap Force- Fire Kraken
Trap Masters- Enigma
SuperChargers- Fiesta
Minis- Mini Jini

Knight Mare, she may be the only SkyLander we have that seems to be a cross species of humanoid and animal (centaur).
Other mentionable Skylanders are the symbiotic types, like Eye-Brawl, Rocky Roll, Fright Rider, etc; they are creative, in that they are kinda like 2 in 1 figures.

Cores: Food Fight
Giants: Eye-Brawl
Swap Force: Fire Kraken
Trap Master: Enigma
Supercharger: Fiesta

SSA: Camo
SG: Flashwing
SSF: Dune Bug
STT: High Five
SSC: Spitfire
Giant: Tree Rex
Swapper: Fire Kraken
Trap Master: Bushwhack
Supercharger: Buzz Wing
Runner Ups: Zap, Drobot, Hot Dog, Scratch, Slobber Tooth, Echo, Blades, High Volt, Eye Brawl, Rattle Shake, Doom Stone, Snap Shot, Enigma, Tomb Buggy, Reef Ripper

Trying not to be biased
Core: Blades.
Giant: Eye Brawl.
Swapper: Fire Kraken
Trap Master: Knight Light
Supercharger: Spitfire
For The trap masters I failed at not being biased.

Overall, I think Rocky Roll is the most creative.

Rock with a face and one-eyed rock cephalothorax... Isn't much that hasn't been done before though. The only distinct acessory both have is the miner helmet and that's it, not even much variation in color.
But then I'd just go back to the point I already made on my own post,whatever,carry on.

Core: Prism Break
Giant: Eye Brawl
Swapper: Rattle Shake
Trap Master: Knight Mare
Supercharger: Fiesta

Im going to go by design

SSA Core: Eruptor
SG Core: Fright Rider
SSF Core: Pop Thorn
STT Core: Tread Head/ Rocky Roll
Giant: Ninjini
Swap Force: Doom Stone
Trap Master: Blastermind
Supercharger: Nightfall/Splat/Astroblast

i would say pretty much every characters from ssa. the creativity in that game was fantastic..

I think the fact that they're two different people is what makes him unique. And unlike Fright/Ozzy, Roll doesn't have legs.

Cores: Food Fight.
Giants: Have to go with my girl ninjini
Swap: Spy Rise
Trap Team: Lob Star

Infamous Flying Eyeball doesn't have legs; in fact Headless Giant also doesn't have a head as it says in the name.

Core From Each Game: Camo, Chill, Pop Thorn, Blackout
Giants: I can't choose between Crusher, Thumpback and Eye Brawl
Swap Force: Freeze Blade and Trap Shadow, Can't choose between them
Trap Team: Knight Light
Superchargers: Astroblast and Nightfall

So many I can't choose from

Cores: Pop thorn
Giants: Ninjini
Swap: Freezeblade
Trap master: Short cut
Supercharger: Splat

Most creative does not necessarily mean that they're my favourite.
Cores: Double Trouble
Giants: Tree Rex
Swap: Magna Charge
Trap Masters: Blastermind
Superchargers: Bowser

Just curious how do you consider a character created in 1985 to be one of the most creative designed new Skylanders around...?

He didn't get any aesthetical change unlike Spyro or Cynder (except for the weapon and some armor)... He's litterally the character you see in any Mario game nowadays.
Unless you consider his powers too (which are truly amazing and creative) I honestly see him as just a port of an already exsisting character...

SSA Core: Sunburn, Wrecking Ball, Ghost Roaster
Giants Giants: Eye-Brawl, Thumpback
Giants Core: Pop Fizz, Fright Rider
Swap Force Swapper: Night Shift
Swap Force Core: Smolderdash, Pop Thorn, Star Strike
Trap Master: Short Cut, Lob-Star, Knight Mare
Trap Team Core: Echo, Rocky Roll, Food Fight, Blades, Chopper

Of course. I'm not necessarily counting Bowser as a redesigned character, I'm treating him as a new character in this situation otherwise I see it as an unfair advantage to him. As you said, in every character I have chosen I have also considered their powers, and Bowser's attacks are truly remarkable and creative.

In that case he would be one of my favorites too.
Donkey Kong would follow but Bowser definitely rules!

Attack-wise, Bowser is definitely the most creative.

I'm going by design, but I think everyone knows at least 1 of mine.

SSA - Double Trouble ( As Unique as Unique , A tiki mask with superb detail and stands out.)
SG - Fright Rider ( The first 2 in 1 character. ) Runer Up- Eye Brawl
SSF - 2 Joint, Pop Thorn & Scorp
STT - Head Rush, Rocky Roll, Short Cut & Enigma, Lob Star. (Too many good ones.)
SSC - Dive Clops & Fiesta
