Team Battle

The second boss of Sonic Heroes is a Team Battle. This three-on-three brawl takes place amidst the Grand Metropolis / Power Plant skyline. The object of the Team Battle is to knock the other team off the stage. There is no damage system in this boss. The player only has 30 seconds to get an "A" rank. In this Team Battle arena, there are a total of nine Power Cores; three blue, three yellow, and three red.

Grabbing the Power Cores and the rings before the opponents is crucial. Without rings, the opponents will fly back farther. Some characters are more suited to battle other characters.
