The Egg Dealer is one of three possible final bosses in the main story of Shadow the Hedgehog. It is fought in routes where Shadow hasn't allied himself strongly with either the Black Arms or GUN, instead pursuing Ivo Robotnik for clues about his past and possible identity as a Shadow Android. Due to Shadow's branching level structure, this boss can in fact be fought in several locations; either in the Space Colony ARK's computer archives, at Robotnik's last stand beneath his volcanic fortress, or on the Black Comet as Shadow helps the human's counterattack.
This spider-like machine is proclaimed by Eggman as (again) his latest, greatest creation; a quick-wheeling multipurpose weapons platform, stocked full of rockets and mines. Perhaps in reference to the Doctor's casino proclivities, the Egg Dealer selects its attacks with a slot-machine style mechanism controlled by three seperate buttons. If Shadow hits the third button before the reels stop via a long-range Homing Attack, the munitions target Eggman instead of Shadow.
Black Comet fight
After taking the Hero mission and helping GUN forces penetrate to the heart of the Black Comet, Shadow and Knuckles are shocked to discover not Black Doom, but Eggman at the core of the planetoid - presumably there to steal the aliens' Chaos Emeralds in the confusion. The Doctor congratulates Shadow on having done such a good job gathering up six of the Emeralds for him; but now it's time to hand them over. Predictably unenthralled at the prospect, Shadow declines, and the Robotnik decides to teach him a lesson.
On victory here Shadow decides that "I and only I know what is best", and karate-chops Eggman into oblivion for his presumptiveness.
Lava Shelter fight
The Egg Dealer is the final boss for both Hero and Dark missions in Lava Shelter. In these routes, Shadow has been successfully convinced by the Doctor that he is in fact a Shadow Android; however, far from inclining the hedgehog to obey his creator, this only serves to nurture in Shadow an E-123-style patricidal intent. Fittingly enough then, this fight is concluded with Omega's help, as the two robots team up to take down their obese maker.
After the Hero battle, Shadow declares that he will take over the Eggman Empire as Shadow Android, turning it into a robotic hegemony - much like Metal Overlord's plan in Sonic Heroes.
Cosmic Fall fight
