Shields, referred to as barriers in Japan, are a series of power-ups that protect the player from harm. When the player runs into an enemy or trap, their character will be knocked backwards and the shield is lost. Shields offer an extra line of defense before rings would be lost. Shields can be obtained by breaking monitors, or in the gumball machine (Sonic 3) and the sphere shot (Sonic & Knuckles) bonus stages.
Overview
The original shield is a simple blue sphere, with no additional advantages. The one exception to this is in Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island, where the basic shield is impervious to the electric flooring in Gene Gadget Zone.
Sonic 1 (Mega Drive) shield monitor.
Sonic 2 (Mega Drive) shield monitor.

Sonic Pocket Adventure shield monitor.
There are no shields at all in the 8-bit version of Sonic 2 and its sequels, Sonic Chaos and Sonic Triple Trouble.
