Bubble Shield monitor

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

Bubble Shield monitors, when hit, will give the player the Bubble Shield, one of the three special-effect shields in Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles.

The Bubble Shield has three useful features:

• The user becomes capable of breathing underwater, thus removing the danger of drowning (this aids in the completion of Sonic 3's Hydrocity Zone)
• Sonic can perform a Bubble Bounce with it, firing him straight down to attack, then launching him high into the air.
• The shield deflects small bullets when they hit it.

The Bubble Shield is removed if the user contacts an enemy or contacts spikes.
