This short article is in need of work. You can help Sonic Retro by adding to it.

The following list contains other scrapped enemies which were to be featured in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Some of the badniks were taken from concept art found here:

Contents

Cactus

flying orb badnik.

Though Dust Hill Zone was scrapped early in development, badniks were still designed for the level. Cactus is one of them - a badnik which would be either mobile or stationary and would flash green and red before exploding. The drawing of Sonic 1's Bomb badnik may mean the Cactus badnik behaved similarly to it. An armadillo is also present.

Dragonfly

Dragonfly badnik.

Dragonfly is a airborne badnik which drops sections off its abdomen which would explode as they hit the ground.

Lobster

Lobster badnik.

Lobster is a badnik which would swim underwater. This enemy is similar to Taga-Taga from Sonic CD.

Mole

Mole badnik.

Mole is a badnik which appears to drill through walls to attack Sonic if he comes too close. This design may have led to the Grounder badnik.

Penguin

Penguin badnik.

A Penguin badnik with a spring on its nose which would attempt knock Sonic away. Sonic would be forced to roll on the ground to defeat it. The Crawl badnik behaves similarly.

Pig

Pig badnik.

Various incarnations of a Pig badnik which seems to have evolved from a tank/cannon. It appears it was to shoot projectiles from its snout.

Porcupine

Porcupin badnik.

Porcupine seems to be a land-based badnik. Possibly one that could only be rolled into.

Pterodactyl or Vulture

Pterodactyl or Vulture badnik.

Pterodactyl or Vulture is a badnik which would fly in the air, opening a hatch in its stomach to drop projectiles on Sonic.

Squid

Squid badnik.

Squid appears to be a badnik which was to appear in underwater sections. More concept art can be seen here.

Unnamed Stegosaurus

Stegasaurus badnik.
There were numerous scrapped dinosaur badniks, such as this Stegosaurus. As Hidden Palace Zone contained the Redz and Stego badniks, they may have been planned for that zone.

Unnamed T-Rex

T-Rex badnik.
A T-Rex. It's possible that the scrapped time travel concept influenced some of these designs.

Unnamed Octopus

Pig badnik.

This Octopus may have been an early version of the Octus badnik.

Unnamed Flying Badnik

unknown flying badnik.

A strange Flying Thing which may have been an eagle or some type of dinosaur. It may have become the Balkiry enemy.

Unnamed Badnik

unknown badnik.

Some Unnamed Thing which may have been a lizard or some type of dinosaur.

Unnamed Grasshopper

grasshopper badnik.

An Unnamed Grasshopper. Sonic 3's Mantis badnik may have recycled this concept.

Unnamed Flying Badnik 2

possible grasshopper badnik.

Unnamed Flying Thing which may have also been a grasshopper.

Unnamed Spring Orb

flying orb badnik.

A Spring Orb badnik which hops and tries to land on Sonic to do damage.
