The Rocket AccelMedia:SonicHeroes GC US manual.pdf[1] (ロケットアクセルMedia:SonicHeroes PS2 JP manual.pdf[2]) is a move available to all four Speed Type characters in Sonic Heroes. It enables them to get a boost from their teammates.

Overview

While on the ground in Speed Formation, the player must hold down B (GC)/Square (PS2)/X (Xbox) to make the Speed character roll into a ball and have their teammates line up behind in preparation, then release the button to have the teammates launch the Speed character at high speed with a yellow energy field. In addition to dealing damage to enemies, this move has some of the same attributes as the Tornado Jump in that it can also send enemies flying and remove shields, as well as allow the team to spin up poles. Its large hitbox will also draw in Rings.

If the player's timing is off, or if the Speed character's teammates are not present, the Speed character will instead use their Solo Attack.
