'''With Me''' is the song used in the final boss fight of ''[[Sonic and the Black Knight]]'', the [[Dark Queen]]. It's sung by of [[Emma Gelotte]] and [[Tinna Karlsdotter]] from the band ''[[All Ends]]'', and featuring ex-Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman. A version by [[Crush 40]] was released in ''[[Sonic and the Black Knight Vocal Trax "Face to Faith"]]'' titled, '''With Me ~Massive Power Mix~'''. The way the song written it seems like it's [[Sonic]] and [[Merlina]] speaking to each other.<br />

==Lyrics==<br />
<br />
Well I've been wondering 'bout who I am<br/><br />
And just how far I'd drive to see the end<br/><br />
I started from, when I believe I've won<br/><br />
<br/><br />
And as the sweat rolls down my face<br/><br />
I put my heart into this place of mine<br/><br />
Go back in time, to see what I'm living in...<br/><br />
<br/><br />
My will (my will), my way (my way)<br/><br />
My fear (my fear) fades away<br/><br />
With wings (with wings) I fly high<br/><br />
Watch me fly...<br/><br />
<br/><br />
It's just my wild heart moving in<br/><br />
It's just my will to live the win you know<br/><br />
I need it so<br/><br />
Life's when the race begins<br/><br />
<br/><br />
And all the years I've wondered why<br/><br />
I've stared at speed with open eyes you see<br/><br />
It lives in me<br/><br />
Now that's what sets me free<br/><br />
<br/><br />
My will (my will), my way (my way)<br/><br />
My fear (my fear) fades away<br/><br />
With wings (with wings) I fly high<br/><br />
Watch me fly...<br/><br />
<br/><br />
I keep this fire, burning inside me<br/><br />
The thrill of desire<br/><br />
Coming over, over me...<br/><br />
<br/><br />
Now I believe whether near or far<br/><br />
The road is windy there where you are<br/><br />
Try to take the curve, next turn another learned<br/><br />
<br/><br />
And so I finally see my way<br/><br />
Straight and true pass yesterday my friend<br/><br />
I've waited for, the thrill, the chase forever more<br/><br />
<br/><br />
Watch me fly!<br/><br />

'''Dan Genesis''' is a tough person to describe. At times, he is philosphocial, anylitical, and inventive. Other times he is simply random, nonsensical, and borderline innapproriate for all ages. Regardless of how one views him, sanity flees in terror when Dan is present.<br />
<br />
Dan was the winner of the community's [[Blue Sphere]] tournament at level 3001 with a 300 perfect streak.<br />
<br />
Unlike the sceners he tends to associate himself with, Dan has no talent for hacking or programing. He does, however, have a nack for coming up with (often outlandish) ideas that could easily be turned into hacks.<br />
<br />
Dan spends most of his time writing a novel, scripting three webcomics and drawing one of them, playing video games listening to and writing music, eating, and sleeping. He has finished one novel, a song, is now publishing one of his webcomics, and has recently started (attempting) to produce a fighting game called Bloodlust. Quiet the busy fellow, isn't he?<br />

'''''Sonic the Hedgehog Megamix''''' (commonly shortened to '''''Sonic Megamix''''') is a multiperson [[Disassemblies|disassembly]] [[Sonic hacks|modification]] of the original ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' videogame for the [[sega:Sega Mega Drive|Sega Mega Drive / Genesis]], headed up by [[Team Megamix]] and more recently moved to the [[sega:Sega Mega CD|Sega Mega CD]]. The game features the ability to play as one of five different characters: [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], [[Mighty the Armadillo]], [[Shadow the Hedgehog]], [[Miles "Tails" Prower]], and [[Knuckles the Echidna]]. It is an extensive reworking of the original game, featuring new art, music, abilities, layouts, and other things.<br />
<br />
==Story==<br />
[[South Island]]. A magnificent land; one that is not bound by restrictions such as time.<br />
<br />
15 years have passed since Sonic the Hedgehog's first plight against the nefarious [[Dr. Eggman]] (originally known as Dr. Ivo Robotnik in English localisations). Ever since, the two sides have clashed nonstop in a variety of settings, with the eventual outcome always being Sonic's victory. Both sides have gained both new allies and new enemies; some helpful, others... not so much. Naturally, throughout this time, Sonic has learned a few new techniques, which he uses to further stifle Eggman's plans of world domination. And so, the world is safe - but always just out of Eggman's grasp.<br />
<br />
Some say history repeats itself. In this case, the statement is proven true, as Eggman returns to South Island, in hopes that he can obtain the land's powerful [[Chaos Emeralds]], and finally put forth a solid step in conquering the planet. As he arrives on the island, he brings with him a single Chaos Emerald - one that had been missing, and had upset the natural balance of the island for decades beforehand. The others were trapped in [[Special stage|an alternate dimension]]; one which only very few could enter, and from which even fewer returned.<br />
<br />
Of course, Eggman isn't very good at keeping his plans secret (a big reason why they're foiled so easily). As a result, Sonic hears of this, and readies his travel back to South Island. With him, he brings two allies: one being Mighty the Armadillo, a longtime friend of his (though they had not spoken in quite some time); and the other being Shadow the Hedgehog who, after finally getting over his angst (at least for the moment), felt like teaching Eggman a thing or two about trying the same thing twice. And besides that, he had never seen South Island before; he had heard things about it, certainly, but never saw it for himself. So, he figured, why not?<br />
<br />
And so, the three begin their trek of South Island, each taking their own unique abilities with them, and going their separate ways, each in search of the remaining Chaos Emeralds, and of Eggman, in hopes that once he is defeated, he will finally abandon his plans of world domination. But, then again, that's not very likely to happen.<br />
<br />
We can all dream, I suppose.<br />
<br />
==Characters==<br />
The player has the choice to play through ''Sonic Megamix'' as one of five characters: Sonic the Hedgehog, Mighty the Armadillo, Shadow the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, or Knuckles the Echidna. Each character has their own specific abilities, while some share common abilities.<br />
<br />
===Sonic the Hedgehog===<br />
[[Image:Megamix_Sonic.png|right|120px]]<br />
Sonic is a blue, 15-year-old hedgehog who lives on the planet Earth. He has the ability to run at supersonic speeds, hence his name. He is always running all over the world, rarely stopping for anything. He is carefree and relaxed; however, he is also very intolerant of injustice, and he will do anything he can to help those in need. He also has a quick wit, a short temper, and a fairly large ego. <br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
===Mighty the Armadillo===<br />
[[Image:Mighty chaotix.png|right|120px]]<br />
Mighty is a 16-year-old red and black armadillo who has a strong sense of justice. Opposed to any and all inhumanity, he uses his power to control the elements - Water, Fire, and Electricity - in his battle against Eggman. He enjoys nature, tranquility, and hot springs.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
===Shadow the Hedgehog===<br />
[[Image:Sa2b shadow02.png|right|120px]]<br />
Shadow is the "ultimate life form", created in an experiment by Professor [[Gerald Robotnik]] aboard the [[Space Colony ARK]]. His exact age isn't known, but he is assumed to be around 50 years old. Once hungry for revenge after the death of [[Maria Robotnik|Maria]], Gerald's granddaughter, he is now aware of his past, and who he "is." He prefers to be a loner, but he occasionally tags along with Sonic and his friends when Eggman is up to no good. He uses his ability, [[Chaos Control]], to harness the powers of the Chaos Emeralds to enhance his natural abilities. While he is unable to move very quickly on his own, he possesses fire-powered jet skates, which allow him to move much faster than he can without them.<br />

<br />
<br />
===Miles "Tails" Prower===<br />
[[Image:Tails.png|right|120px]]<br />
Miles, better known by his nickname "Tails", is Sonic's faithful eight-year-old sidekick. Although best known for his two tails, which enable him to fly like a helicopter and give him his nickname, Miles is very intelligent; one could say he is a mechanical genius!<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
===Knuckles the Echidna===<br />
[[Image:Knuckles01 32.png|right|120px]]<br />
Knuckles, named after his fists, is a 16-year-old echidna known for his red-hot temper. An inhabitant of [[Angel Island]], and the guardian of the [[Master Emerald]], he is well known for his brute strength and gullibility. <br />

<br />
==Controls==<br />
In order to execute all the character specific abilities in ''Sonic Megamix'', you'll need to know the ropes. Here's how you play...<br />
===Basic moves===<br />
* {{A}}: Action button. Each character has a specific use for this button - read below for more info.<br />
* {{A}} in free fall: Roll into a ball. Allows further execution of double jump moves.<br />
* {{B}} or {{C}}: '''Jump'''<br />
<br />
* {{down}} + {{B}}/{{C}}: '''[[Spin Dash]]'''. Roll up into a ball and shoot off at supersonic speeds to destroy enemies!<br />
* {{B}} + {{C}}: Transform into Super form (requires all [[Chaos Emeralds]])<br />
** Use the same button combination while Super to de-transform, returning you into your normal state.<br />
<br />
===Character-specific abilities===<br />
====Sonic====<br />
[[#Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]]'s gameplay is based on pure, unadulterated speed.<br />
* {{A}}: '''[[Light Dash]]'''. Dash towards a path of rings at supersonic speeds!<br />
* Double jump when near an enemy or monitor: '''[[Homing Attack]]'''. Zoom towards any nearby enemy (Robotnik's [[badnik]]s or [[Eggpod]]) or [[monitor]] at supersonic speeds to destroy them!<br />
* Double jump when not near a target: '''[[Jump Dash]]'''. Zoom forward at high speeds to pick up more speed.<br />
* {{A}}+Double jump: '''[[Light Speed Attack]]'''. Zoom towards all available targets within a certain range and destroy them all, one after another! For each additional target other than the first, there is a cost of five rings to continue attacking more targets.<br />
* {{Up}}+Jump: '''[[Super Peel-Out]]'''. Sonic stands in place, moving his legs into a figure-eight shape. Release the buttons to shoot off in a burst of speed!<br />
<br />
'''''While [[Super Sonic|Super]]...'''''<br />
* Double jump when not near a target: '''Super Air Dash'''. Hold a direction on the second button press to shoot off in that direction at supersonic speeds!<br />
* {{A}}+Jump (with S monitor): '''Flight'''. When at full speed, jump into the air and hold the A button to defy gravity and fly in a straight line at your current vertical height.<br />
<br />
====Mighty====<br />
[[#Mighty the Armadillo|Mighty]]'s gameplay is primarily centered around the different [[shield]] powerups you can obtain in the game. He has the ability to store up to four different shields in his shield inventory, displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen. Switching shields in mid-air allows you to chain various shield moves together. Use it to your advantage!<br />
<br />
* Double jump without an elemental shield: '''[[Insta-Shield]]'''. Produces a small shield around Mighty, which extends his attacking range, as well as temporarily protects him from being attacked.<br />
* Double jump with a fire shield: '''Fire Dash'''. Shoot off in the current direction you're facing in a burst of speed.<br />
* Double jump with a lightning shield: '''Lightning Jump'''. Double your jump height by executing another jump in midair!<br />
* Double jump with bubble shield: '''Bubble Bounce'''. Bounce off the ground repeatedly by pressing jump in midair.<br />
<br />
* {{A}}: '''Shield swap'''. Change between currently stored shields displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen. Costs 5 rings.<br />
* {{Up}}+{{A}}: '''Store''' currently held shield into the shield storage. Has no ring cost.<br />
<br />
'''''While Super...'''''<br />
Mighty has the ability to stack all currently selected shields together in his super form, allowing him to use all abilities granted by currently equipped shields. During this time, the ability to swap shields is disabled (due to redundancy).<br />
<br />
* {{Left}}/{{Right}}+Jump with a fire shield: '''Fire Dash'''. Shoot off in the current direction you're facing in a burst of speed.<br />
* {{Up}}+Jump with a lightning shield: '''Lightning Jump'''. Double your jump height by executing another jump in midair!<br />
* {{Down}}+Jump with bubble shield: '''Bubble Bounce'''. Bounce off the ground repeatedly by pressing jump in midair.<br />
<br />
* {{A}} with normal shield: '''Super Killall'''. Destroy all enemies currently on screen with a ring cost per enemy. Cost is lessened depending on how many shields you currently have equipped.<br />
<br />
* S monitor ability: When Mighty collects an S monitor, he automatically receives all possible shields, and they are also added to his current shield storage when you de-transform.<br />
<br />
====Shadow====<br />
[[#Shadow the Hedgehog|Shadow]]'s gameplay is mostly centered around exploration, as well as taking advantage of ring-powered speed boosts to even things out. While he isn't very fast in his normal form, his super form really brings out his true power.<br />
<br />
* Double jump when not near a target: '''Double Jump'''. Double your jump height by executing another jump in midair!<br />
* Double jump when near an enemy or monitor: '''[[Homing Attack]]'''. Zoom towards any nearby enemy or monitor at supersonic speeds to destroy them!<br />
* {{A}}+Double jump: '''[[Light Speed Attack]]'''. Zoom towards all available targets within a certain range and destroy them all, one after another! For each additional target other than the first, there is a cost of five rings to continue attacking more targets.<br />
* {{A}}: '''[[Sonic Boost|Speed Boost]]'''. Shoot off in a burst of supersonic speed! Costs five rings per boost.<br />
<br />
'''''While [[Super Shadow|Super]]...'''''<br />
* {{A}}: '''[[Chaos Control]]'''. Shadow shoots off at hyper speed, continue tapping A for extra acceleration or hold A button to keep hyper speed! Can only be initiated on the ground, but lasts in air as long as the A button is held and there are rings to fuel it. Hextuples your ring loss. <br />
* Jump+{{A}} (with S monitor): [[Chaos Blast]]. Destroy all enemies on screen instantly! (no cost)<br />
<br />
====Tails====<br />
[[#Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]]'s gameplay is, like Shadow's, focused on exploration. With the ability to fly, Tails can reach heights no other characters can!<br />
* Double jump: '''Flight'''. Continue hitting the jump button and Tails will fly even higher. Be warned, however, that he can't fly forever, so make sure you have a good place to land!<br />
* {{A}}: '''Tails Attack'''. Tails will whip around, attacking nearby enemies, or open [[#Monitors|monitors]] with his two tails. Can be done on the ground or in the air, but not while flying. (Hint: press {{A}} while flying to roll into a ball, then {{A}} again quickly to use the attack. If you're fast enough, you can continue flying after the attack by pressing jump again.) <br />
'''''While [[Super Tails|Super]]...'''''<br />
* {{A}}: '''Super Tails Attack'''. Tails will do the same two-tail attack move as before, but now the range reaches to the very edge of the screen. Use it to snipe enemies the moment you see them!<br />
<br />
====Knuckles====<br />
[[#Knuckles the Echidna|Knuckles]]'s gameplay is based on power. His powerful fists allow him to break certain barriers to reach previously unknown areas. Be warned, however, as Eggman has filled these areas with booby traps!<br />
* Double jump: '''[[Power Glide|Glide]]'''. Continue holding down the jump button to glide so long as there is room. Use the {{Left}} and {{Right}} buttons to steer. You will slowly lose altitude however, so don't glide too close to spikes! You can defeat [[badnik]]s and damage Eggman while gliding, by ramming them with your fists. When you let go if the jump button, you will fall, so make sure you have a place to land.<br />
* Glide into the ground to perform a short '''slide''', which can also be used to damage enemies!<br />
* Glide into a wall to snap onto it, enabling you to '''climb'''. You do not need to hold the jump button. Use the {{Up}} and {{Down}} buttons to climb up and down the wall. Beware, not all walls are climbable! Press {{A}}, {{B}}, or {{C}} to hop off.<br />

<br />
==Levels==<br />
Three modes exist within the game: normal, which features new levels, original, which has the original levels from ''Sonic 1'' intact, and extra, where you play a harder verison of normal mode, but you can collect a few extra goodies (unlocked by completing normal mode). Extra mode places several S monitors throughout the level. The catch is that you only receive one life. All of the Zones have 4 Acts, instead of the original ''Sonic'' game<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 3. The 4th act of Misty Maze, Starry Night Zone and Metallic Base Zone are not complete. Starry Night can be completed if the capsule is hit in a certain way. Misty Maze cannot be completed in extra mode without debug. Metallic Base blocks your path before you've really gone anywhere and thus can't be completed. Normal levels include:<br />

<div>[[File:Heroes Emeralds.PNG|right|thumb|300px|Collecting the seven Chaos Emeralds is frequently an objective to finish a [[Sonic games|Sonic game]].]]<br />
<br />
The '''Chaos Emeralds''' are a collection of mystical gemstones that appear as major plot elements throughout the [[Sonic games]] (and in most other continuities too). Even individually, these strange jewels can channel miraculous powers unmatched by almost anything in the universe; enabling their possessor to [[Chaos Control|manipulate time and space]], as well as unleash incredible [[Chaos Blast|destructive forces]]. Collect all seven and a [[Super transformation|miracle]]'s supposed to happen.<br />
<br />
==General==<br />
<br />
The Emeralds' awesome abilities inevitably mean that they are coveted by every supervillain on [[Sonic's world]] ([[Black Doom|and beyond]]), so a great many of Sonic's adventures involve keeping them out of the pudgy hands of [[Doctor Robotnik]]. Even discounting their supernatural powers, the Chaos Emeralds' glittering beauty (and cash equivalent value) makes them top targets for the more financially-motivated characters as well; namely [[Nack]] and [[Rouge]].<br />
<br />
Chronologically, the Chaos Emerald's first appearance in the series was at the [[Mystic Ruins]] [[emerald shrine]], during the time of [[Tikal]] and [[Pachacamac]]; this is also where the Emeralds earned their "chaos" name, on account of the destruction and mayhem they [[Perfect Chaos|brought]] to the [[Knuckles Clan]]. In modern times, the Emeralds can be found in a variety of different places, but usually located in a [[Special Stage]] - bizarre pocket dimensions that the gems seem to weave around themselves.<br />
<br />
The number, color, and shape of the Emeralds were at first inconsistent between games, but from ''[[Sonic 3]]'' onward, they were 'finalized' as being 7 [[Wikipedia:Brilliant (diamond cut)|brilliant cut]] gemstones, colored red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, and grey.<br />
<br />
==Console games==<br />
===Sonic 1===<br />
[[Image:Chaos Emeralds Sonic 1.png|right|thumb|Sonic 1: Got them all!]]<br />
First introduced in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' for the [[Sega Mega Drive]], 6 Chaos Emeralds were located in the 2D rotating [[Special Stage (Sonic the Hedgehog 16-bit)|Secret Zone]]. The [[Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit) US Manual|US Manual]] states:<br />
<br />
:''"'''Chaos Emeralds''': These come in six different colors: yellow, pink, blue, green, red and white. You'll find one in each Secret Zone. Collect all of these!"''<br />
<br />
Obtaining all 6 Emeralds was necessary to obtain the "Good Ending". Their purpose was not explained during the game, as [[Super transformation]] was not implemented in this game.<br />
<br />
===Sonic 2===<br />
[[Image:Chaos emeralds sonic 2.png|right|thumb|Sonic 2: Got them all!]]<br />
''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (16-bit)|Sonic 2]]'' for the Mega Drive was the first game to feature 7 Chaos Emeralds. This number has been used by the majority of the games since. They appear different, however: They now have 6, rather than 8, sides (from the 2D viewpoint of the player). The 7th Emerald was given the color purple. The others are the same color as the ones in Sonic 1 (see above), with the exception of the blue Emerald, which is now a lighter color.<br />
<br />
In this game, the Emeralds are central to the plot: [[Dr. Robotnik]] has taken control of much of the island, and [[Sonic]] must obtain them before he does. Sonic and/or Tails must go through a [[Special Stage (Sonic the Hedgehog 2 16-bit)|pseudo-3D half-pipe Special Stage]] to get them this time.<br />
<br />
This time, getting all 7 Emeralds not only unlocks the "Good Ending", but it also enables Sonic to transform into [[Super Sonic]], who has been featured in many games, and virtually all other Sonic-related media since then. [[Tails]] is unable to transform.<br />
<br />
Knuckles can use the 7 Emeralds to transform into [[Super Knuckles]] in ''[[Knuckles in Sonic 2]]''.<br />
<br />
===Sonic 3 & Knuckles===<br />
[[Image:Chaos Emeralds Sonic 3.gif|right|thumb|Sonic 3: Got them all!]]<br />
A direct sequel to ''Sonic 2'', this Mega Drive game once again has the Chaos Emeralds at the center of its plot. Interestingly, the Emeralds have changed color and shape once again, even though they are stated to be the same Emeralds as those in ''Sonic 2''.<br />
<br />
Sonic and Tails, with the 7 Emeralds from the end of ''Sonic 2'', come to Angel Island when they see Robotnik has crash landed there. Robotnik tricks resident echidna [[Knuckles]] into stealing the Emeralds from Super Sonic. Knuckles (or Robotnik) proceeds to hide the Emeralds in 7 [[Special Stage (Sonic 3 & Knuckles)|pseudo-3D Special Stages]], which rotate when you turn. You must collect all the [[Blue Sphere|Blue Spheres]] located in the stage to earn the Emerald. <br />
<br />
Upon obtaining all 7, Sonic may transform into Super Sonic, as in ''Sonic 2'', while Tails again cannot transform. Knuckles can also transform into Super Knuckles upon obtaining all 7 Emeralds.<br />
<br />
====Super Emeralds====<br />
[[Image:Super Emeralds S3K.gif|right|thumb|Knuckles got them all!]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Super Emeralds]]''<br />
Sonic and Knuckles are later given access to the [[Hidden Palace Zone (S&K)|Hidden Palace Zone]]. Upon entering the zone with all 7 Chaos Emeralds, the 7 gems will fly up and give their power to 7 larger [[Super Emeralds]]. The Hidden Palace also contains the [[Master Emerald]]. The new Super Emeralds are located in 7 new Special Stages.<br />
<br />
Upon obtaining all 7 Super Emeralds, Sonic can transform into [[Hyper Sonic]], Tails into [[Super Tails]], and Knuckles into [[Hyper Knuckles]].<br />
<br />
===Sonic Spinball===<br />
[[Image:Chaos Emerald Sonic Spinball.png|right|thumb|Sonic Spinball: Emerald Power!]]<br />
Both the [[Sonic Spinball (16-bit)|Mega Drive version]] and [[Sonic Spinball (8-bit)|Game Gear/Master System]] versions of ''Sonic Spinball'' feature a record total of ''16'' Chaos Emeralds. They are scattered across the levels in the game, and require doing certain precision pinball tricks to obtain. They are all blue, and are similarly shaped to the Emeralds in ''Sonic 2'' (see above).<br />
<br />
As with most other games, the Emeralds are central to the plot. The [[Sonic Spinball US Manual|US Mega Drive manual]] states:<br />
<br />
:'''The Chaos Emeralds'''<br />
:Chaos Emeralds stabilize the Mt. Mobius volcano on which the Veg-O-Fortress stands. Without the Emeralds, a massive eruption would blow the Fortress to pieces!<br />
:You must spin, bounce and bump through the Pinball Machines to snatch all the Chaos Emeralds on each of four levels. When you've collected all the Emeralds, the Veg-O-Fortress will explode!<br />
<br />
The... ''excessive'' quantity of these ''Spinball'' emeralds, along with their uniform blue colouration, and apparent absence of an associated [[Super transformation]], leads some fans to speculate that these shouldn't be considered real Chaos Emeralds at all.<br />
<br />
===Sonic 3D Flickies' Island===<br />
Collecting the 7 Chaos Emeralds in ''Sonic 3D'' allows Sonic to fight the final boss and see the good ending. In the Mega Drive / Genesis version, the Emeralds take on a cuboid shape with a circular depression in one of the facets. In the Saturn and PC versions, their appearance was changed to the brilliant cut shape they take on today. Sonic collected the Emeralds by bringing 50 or more rings to Tails or Knuckles, who were hidden in most levels. Sonic would then be transported to a special stage. The Mega Drive / Genesis version special stages involved Sonic running along a long bridge, collecting rings and avoiding mines. The Saturn and PC versions both contained full 3D half-pipe special stages similar to those in ''[[Sonic 2]]'', where Sonic had to once again collect rings and avoid mines.<br />
<br />
===Sonic Adventure===<br />
[[Image:Sadx_chaosemerald.jpg|right|thumb|A Chaos Emerald, as it appears in ''[[Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut]]'']]<br />
In ''[[Sonic Adventure]]'', the Chaos Emeralds were revealed to have both Positive and Negative energies. The Emeralds were collected by [[Dr. Eggman]] to feed [[Chaos (character)|Chaos]], the "God Of Destruction". Chaos would power up greatly and change form when being fed a Chaos Emerald and when he has been fed all 7, he could become powerful enough to destroy the world. With the Chaos' power, Eggman would create his dream-city: EggmanLand. After transforming into Perfect Chaos with all 7 Chaos Emeralds and destroying Station Square, Perfect Chaos fully absorbed the Negative Energy in the gems, leaving only the Positive left. Sonic then used the Chaos Emerald's Positive Energy to transform into [[Super Sonic]] and defeat Perfect Chaos. It is during this game that the color of the emeralds is suggested to be linked to the "negative" energy and their size to the "positive" energy, as the emeralds become colorless after Chaos absorbs the negative energy, but do not dissappear like in later installments until Sonic absorbs the positive energy. However, this idea is not revisted in later titles (where the emeralds simply dissappear altogether when someone goes to their Super State), so no definite conformation is available.<br />
<br />
===Sonic Adventure 2===<br />
<br />
In ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]'', Sonic and [[Shadow the Hedgehog|Shadow]] had the ability to use the Chaos Emeralds to perform "Chaos Control": alter time and space to teleport or freeze time. Shadow collected the Emeralds for Dr. Eggman to power the ARK, at which point [[Biolizard]] took over the station. It became [[FinalHazard]], and then Sonic and Shadow had to team up and use the Chaos Emeralds to become Super Sonic and [[Super Shadow]] and defeat FinalHazard.<br />
<br />
==8-bit games==<br />
Numerous hand-held Sonic games contain or reference the Chaos Emeralds in some form.<br />
<br />
===Game Gear titles===<br />
The 8-bit hand-held Sonic games, all released for the [[Sega Game Gear]] (with some also released on the [[Sega Master System|Master System]]) generally had 6 Chaos Emeralds, with varying colors and ways to obtain them. The games revealed little to nothing about the emeralds, most centering around classic Sonic gameplay combined with new features and gimmicks. None of the Game Gear titles included any form of [[super transformation]].<br />
<br />
====Sonic 1 8-bit====<br />
The Game Gear and Master System versions of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (8-bit)|Sonic 1]]'' had the Emeralds scattered in certain acts of each zone; the Special Stage of the game was used to obtain rings, score, and continues. All 6 Emeralds are light blue in this game, due to hardware limitations. If all of the Emeralds are collected, Sonic holds them up at the end of the game, where they circle around the island clearing it of all of Robotnik's pollution. The manual states: <br />
<br />
:"'''Chaos Emeralds''': These appear in every zone. Collect all six and see the ''real'' ending!"<br />
<br />
====Sonic 2 8-bit====<br />
The Game Gear and Master System ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit)|versions of Sonic 2]]'' are similar to ''Sonic 1'': There are only 6 Emeralds, they are all different colors though, and are hidden in the zones. The [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Game Gear) US Manual|manual]] states:<br />
<br />
:"'''Chaos Emerald''': Search for these in the Zones. Collect all six to rescue Tails and see the ''real'' ending!"<br />
<br />
====Sonic Chaos====<br />
From ''[[Sonic Chaos]]'' and beyond, the Emeralds would be found in special stages like in the 16-bit games. Once Sonic collects 100 rings in a stage, he is automatically sent to the [[Special Stage (Sonic Chaos)|special stage]], as opposed to getting an extra life. Once inside, Sonic must find and collect the Chaos Emerald hidden somewhere in the stage, and may obtain rings along the way. Tails cannot enter the special stage, and hence cannot collect any Chaos Emeralds. Robotnik holds the 6th and final emerald, and obtaining all 6 leads to the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Triple Trouble====<br />
Like its predecessor ''Sonic Chaos'', ''[[Sonic Triple Trouble]]'' has 6 Chaos Emeralds, the first five hidden in the [[Special Stage (Sonic Triple Trouble)|special stage]], with the final one held by Robotnik. Special stages alternate between a platforming stage and an airplane stage. At the end of either, you are warped to an arena where you must defeat [[Nack]] to obtain the emerald.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Drift series====<br />
''[[Sonic Drift]]'' uses the Chaos Emeralds to denote the difficulty of the Chaos Grand Prix racing competitions. They are Green, Yellow, and Red, in order from easiest to hardest. The sequel, ''[[Sonic Drift 2]]'', uses them in the same manner, except they are Purple, White, and Blue. They appear similar to the Emeralds from ''Sonic 2'' and even moreso to ''Sonic Spinball''.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Blast====<br />
The 5 Chaos Emeralds in ''[[Sonic Blast]]'' are obtained in a mixture of older games: enter the large ring in the stage (as in ''Sonic 3'') and collect enough rings (as in ''Sonic 2''). However, you are only allowed to enter a single stage per level; if you enter another ring you'll be taken to the same stage only able to win an extra life.<br />
<br />
If all 5 are obtained, Sonic or Knuckles gets to fight an extra final boss and see the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
====Tails Adventure====<br />
In ''[[Tails Adventure]]'' for the Game Gear, there are 6 Chaos Emeralds, scattered throughout the levels. They are colored, in order of appearance, red, green, purple, white, blue, and yellow. Each increases your maximum rings by 10. When all 6 are obtained, maximum rings goes up to 99.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Labyrinth====<br />
In ''[[Sonic Labyrinth]]'' Sonic is awarded a Chaos Emerald upon successful completion of each of the first 5 stages of the game. The 6th emerald is hidden within a [[Bonus Stage (Sonic Labyrinth)|special stage]] accessed in [[Labyrinth of the Sea]], Act 3. Obtaining all 6 Emeralds unlocks the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
===Game Boy Advance===<br />
<br />
====Sonic Advance Series====<br />
In the three ''Sonic Advance'' games, the seven Chaos Emeralds are all hidden in special stages. Collecting all seven unlocks an "Extra Zone" where Sonic transforms into Super Sonic and battles a final boss.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Battle====<br />
Emerl, the legendary Gizoid, draws his power from Chaos Emeralds. As he gains more and more emeralds, his speech and personality become more and more developed and his battle abilities grow stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
===Nintendo DS===<br />
Chaos Emeralds are also featured in the ''Sonic Rush'' series and in ''Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood''.<br />
<br />
==Other games==<br />
''[[Sonic CD]]'' featured the [[Time Stones]] as a power item, rather than the Emeralds. Likewise, ''[[Knuckles' Chaotix]]'' had the [[Chaos Rings]].<br />
<br />
==Television Shows==<br />
===Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog===<br />
[[Image:AoStH_Emerald_Chart.jpg|right|thumb|Robotnik's chart of the four Chaos Emeralds]]<br />
[[Image:aosth_emeralds.PNG|182px|right|thumb]]<br />
In ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]'', there are only four Chaos Emeralds. Unlike the game continuity, each of the emeralds provide their user with a different power. From top left on the image to the right: invisibility, invincibility, immortality, and "the power of life itself": the ability to bring objects, particularly Robotnik's robots, to life. For some reason, each of these emeralds only exist in the past, hence Robotnik and Sonic had to travel back in time to collect them. When Robotnik used all four emeralds at the same time, he grew to gigantic proportions and was granted god-like powers.<br />
<br />
===Sonic Underground===<br />
Chaos emeralds in ''[[Sonic Underground]]'' are green stones filled with unlimited chaos energy. There is no limit to the number of emeralds in the SoUND universe, but they are very rare - only two chaos emeralds made appearances through its entire 40 episode run. Knuckles the Echidna uses a chaos emerald to make the floating island float, which Sleet and Dingo attempted to steal for Robotnik. The other chaos emerald was found by Robotnik and used to power his flying fortress.<br />

Both the [[Sonic Spinball (16-bit)|Mega Drive version]] and [[Sonic Spinball (8-bit)|Game Gear/Master System]] versions of ''Sonic Spinball'' feature a record total of ''16'' Chaos Emeralds. They are scattered across the levels in the game, and require doing certain precision pinball tricks to obtain.

However, this idea is not revisted in previous titles (where the emeralds simply dissappear altogether when someone goes to their Super State), so no definite conformation is available.<br />
<br />
===Sonic Adventure 2===<br />
<br />
In ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]'', Sonic and [[Shadow the Hedgehog|Shadow]] had the ability to use the Chaos Emeralds to perform "Chaos Control": alter time and space to teleport or freeze time. Shadow collected the Emeralds for Dr. Eggman to power the ARK, at which point [[Biolizard]] took over the station. It became [[FinalHazard]], and then Sonic and Shadow had to team up and use the Chaos Emeralds to become Super Sonic and [[Super Shadow]] and defeat FinalHazard.<br />
<br />
==8-bit games==<br />
Numerous hand-held Sonic games contain or reference the Chaos Emeralds in some form.<br />
<br />
===Game Gear titles===<br />
The 8-bit hand-held Sonic games, all released for the [[Sega Game Gear]] (with some also released on the [[Sega Master System|Master System]]) generally had 6 Chaos Emeralds, with varying colors and ways to obtain them. The games revealed little to nothing about the emeralds, most centering around classic Sonic gameplay combined with new features and gimmicks. None of the Game Gear titles included any form of [[super transformation]].<br />
<br />
====Sonic 1 8-bit====<br />
The Game Gear and Master System versions of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (8-bit)|Sonic 1]]'' had the Emeralds scattered in certain acts of each zone; the Special Stage of the game was used to obtain rings, score, and continues. All 6 Emeralds are light blue in this game, due to hardware limitations. If all of the Emeralds are collected, Sonic holds them up at the end of the game, where they circle around the island clearing it of all of Robotnik's pollution. The manual states: <br />
<br />
:"'''Chaos Emeralds''': These appear in every zone. Collect all six and see the ''real'' ending!"<br />
<br />
====Sonic 2 8-bit====<br />
The Game Gear and Master System ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit)|versions of Sonic 2]]'' are similar to ''Sonic 1'': There are only 6 Emeralds, they are all different colors though, and are hidden in the zones. The [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Game Gear) US Manual|manual]] states:<br />
<br />
:"'''Chaos Emerald''': Search for these in the Zones. Collect all six to rescue Tails and see the ''real'' ending!"<br />
<br />
====Sonic Chaos====<br />
From ''[[Sonic Chaos]]'' and beyond, the Emeralds would be found in special stages like in the 16-bit games. Once Sonic collects 100 rings in a stage, he is automatically sent to the [[Special Stage (Sonic Chaos)|special stage]], as opposed to getting an extra life. Once inside, Sonic must find and collect the Chaos Emerald hidden somewhere in the stage, and may obtain rings along the way. Tails cannot enter the special stage, and hence cannot collect any Chaos Emeralds. Robotnik holds the 6th and final emerald, and obtaining all 6 leads to the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Triple Trouble====<br />
Like its predecessor ''Sonic Chaos'', ''[[Sonic Triple Trouble]]'' has 6 Chaos Emeralds, the first five hidden in the [[Special Stage (Sonic Triple Trouble)|special stage]], with the final one held by Robotnik. Special stages alternate between a platforming stage and an airplane stage. At the end of either, you are warped to an arena where you must defeat [[Nack]] to obtain the emerald.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Drift series====<br />
''[[Sonic Drift]]'' uses the Chaos Emeralds to denote the difficulty of the Chaos Grand Prix racing competitions. They are Green, Yellow, and Red, in order from easiest to hardest. The sequel, ''[[Sonic Drift 2]]'', uses them in the same manner, except they are Purple, White, and Blue. They appear similar to the Emeralds from ''Sonic 2'' and even moreso to ''Sonic Spinball''.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Blast====<br />
The 5 Chaos Emeralds in ''[[Sonic Blast]]'' are obtained in a mixture of older games: enter the large ring in the stage (as in ''Sonic 3'') and collect enough rings (as in ''Sonic 2''). However, you are only allowed to enter a single stage per level; if you enter another ring you'll be taken to the same stage only able to win an extra life.<br />
<br />
If all 5 are obtained, Sonic or Knuckles gets to fight an extra final boss and see the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
====Tails Adventure====<br />
In ''[[Tails Adventure]]'' for the Game Gear, there are 6 Chaos Emeralds, scattered throughout the levels. They are colored, in order of appearance, red, green, purple, white, blue, and yellow. Each increases your maximum rings by 10. When all 6 are obtained, maximum rings goes up to 99.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Labyrinth====<br />
In ''[[Sonic Labyrinth]]'' Sonic is awarded a Chaos Emerald upon successful completion of each of the first 5 stages of the game. The 6th emerald is hidden within a [[Bonus Stage (Sonic Labyrinth)|special stage]] accessed in [[Labyrinth of the Sea]], Act 3. Obtaining all 6 Emeralds unlocks the Good Ending.<br />
<br />
===Game Boy Advance===<br />
<br />
====Sonic Advance Series====<br />
In the three ''Sonic Advance'' games, the seven Chaos Emeralds are all hidden in special stages. Collecting all seven unlocks an "Extra Zone" where Sonic transforms into Super Sonic and battles a final boss.<br />
<br />
====Sonic Battle====<br />
Emerl, the legendary Gizoid, draws his power from Chaos Emeralds. As he gains more and more emeralds, his speech and personality become more and more developed and his battle abilities grow stronger and stronger.<br />
<br />
===Nintendo DS===<br />
Chaos Emeralds are also featured in the ''Sonic Rush'' series and in ''Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood''.<br />
<br />
==Other games==<br />
''[[Sonic CD]]'' featured the [[Time Stones]] as a power item, rather than the Emeralds. Likewise, ''[[Knuckles' Chaotix]]'' had the [[Chaos Rings]].<br />
<br />
==Television Shows==<br />
===Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog===<br />
[[Image:AoStH_Emerald_Chart.jpg|right|thumb|Robotnik's chart of the four Chaos Emeralds]]<br />
[[Image:aosth_emeralds.PNG|182px|right|thumb]]<br />
In ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]'', there are only four Chaos Emeralds. Unlike the game continuity, each of the emeralds provide their user with a different power. From top left on the image to the right: invisibility, invincibility, immortality, and "the power of life itself": the ability to bring objects, particularly Robotnik's robots, to life. For some reason, each of these emeralds only exist in the past, hence Robotnik and Sonic had to travel back in time to collect them. When Robotnik used all four emeralds at the same time, he grew to gigantic proportions and was granted god-like powers.<br />
<br />
===Sonic Underground===<br />
Chaos emeralds in ''[[Sonic Underground]]'' are green stones filled with unlimited chaos energy. There is no limit to the number of emeralds in the SoUND universe, but they are very rare - only two chaos emeralds made appearances through its entire 40 episode run. Knuckles the Echidna uses a chaos emerald to make the floating island float, which Sleet and Dingo attempted to steal for Robotnik. The other chaos emerald was found by Robotnik and used to power his flying fortress.<br />

[[Category:Items]]</div>Dan Genesishttps://info.sonicretro.org/index.php?title=Mephiles_the_Dark&diff=160709Mephiles the Dark2010-10-03T05:45:21Z<p>Dan Genesis: /* Trivia */</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Image:Mephiles.png|thumb|right|400px|Mephiles' "crystalline" form, in Dusty Desert]]<br />
<br />
'''Mephiles the Dark''' (pronounced, "Meh-fill-iss") is the main villain of [[Shadow the Hedgehog]]'s story in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)|Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)]]'', and eventually the principal antagonist of the whole game. Along with [[Iblis]], Mephiles is a component half of [[Solaris]], representing its conscious will and cunning in contrast to Iblis' raw power. Two of [[Shadow]]'s boss fights are against Mephiles: [[Mephiles Phase 1]] and [[Mephiles Phase 2]].<br />
<br />
In his "natural" state, Mephiles' body is a black, oily puddle wreathed in purple smoke, but he can adopt the form of another being by possessing their shadow. When in another form, Mephiles warps it into a crystalline look when he taps into his full power. Mephiles has many powers, including the ability to travel through time and throwing purple energy blasts that are the same as the balls he travels inside when time traveling. He has another ability that allows him to make numerous 'shadows' which are floating forms with one blank eye, and a similar look to a demon. With two [[Chaos Emeralds]], Mephiles is able to form unlimited copies of himself.<br />
<br />
[[File:Shadow and Mephiles.png|300px|thumb|right|Shadow and Mephiles]]<br />
<br />
He is sealed in the "[[Scepter of Darkness]]" by Shadow, who had traveled through time to ten years before the main events of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. In the present, [[Dr. Robotnik]] accidentally releases him when he causes [[Rouge the Bat]] to drop the Scepter. When he is released, Mephiles uses Shadow's shadow to create a form that is a near exact physical duplicate of Shadow himself, the only differences being is that the stripes are pale blue instead of red, a pale gray muzzle, dull colored rings, and green eyes with vertically slit pupils, much like a reptile. Mephiles then disposes of Shadow and Rouge by sending them into the future before beginning to seek the [[Chaos Emerald]]s. At the same time, he makes plans to bring pain and despair to [[Princess Elise]] with the goal of making her cry, which would break the seal on [[Iblis]], his other half and release him. With the release of Iblis, Mephiles would then use the power of the Emeralds to fuse them together, and thus complete [[Solaris]]. With the knowledge that Elise has grown fond of [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], Mephiles uses his powers of time travel to manipulate [[Silver]] into thinking that Sonic was responsible for Iblis being released and destroying his time, causing Silver to hunt down Sonic. Mephiles also tries to get Shadow to join him, telling Shadow the world was going to turn against him after Iblis was released, but failed because Shadow didn't trust him. Afterward, Mephiles attempts to eliminate Shadow using his more powerful crystalline form but fails, and Shadow turns Silver against him. In the end, Mephiles personally kills Sonic in a sneak attack, causing Elise to cry over his death, thus releasing Iblis. Mephiles immediately fuses with him and completes Solaris. However, Mephiles is destroyed along with Solaris during a battle against Shadow, Silver and a revived Sonic in super form. Shortly afterwards, Elise blew out Solaris' flame, erasing both Iblis and Mephiles from time, making it so that none of these events ever happened. He is voiced by [[Takayuki Sakazume]] in the Japanese-speaking version of ''Sonic the Hedgehog'', and is voiced by [[Dan Green]] in the English-speaking version.<br />
<br />
==Personality==<br />
[[Image:06SolarisProject2.png|thumb|right|300px|Mephiles and Iblis, just after their scission in the Solaris Project]]<br />
Mephiles the Dark is unique among a majority of the villains in the Sonic series. Unlike most of them, which are driven by a lust for power and control, Mephiles (as Shadow put it) only seems to crave destruction. He is portrayed as a cold, ruthless villain with no sense of compassion whatsoever. He would do anything to accomplish his goals, even if it means taking innocent lives. Mephiles happens to take great pleasure and delight in hurting others, making him a very sadistic and psychotic individual. For example, he made it his sole mission to cause pain to Elise throughout the entire course of the game, and even broke out into a maniacal laughter after ending Sonic's life. Mephiles also happens to be highly intelligent, as he's capable of using and manipulating people to further his his evil plans. This is shown when he preyed upon Silver's frustration and desire to save the world, by deceiving him into thinking that Sonic was responsible for everything, knowing that killing him would have done the exact opposite of what Silver was trying to achieve. Aside from his failed attempt at convincing Shadow to join him, Mephiles' manipulation tactics often work, which is why he came so close to succeeding with his plot to destroy the world.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
*Mephiles is thus far the only villain to successfully kill Sonic, something not even Robotnik has done.<br />
*Why Mephiles did not simply merge with the Iblis of Silver's time is unexplained in the game, though it can be speculated that he needed Iblis to be in his basic flame form to do so (as that is how Iblis appeared when he was released from Elise's body, rather than the mosterous form he takes on at the beginning of Silver's story).<br />
*Mephiles was named after [[wikipedia:Mephistophiles|Mephistophiles]].<br />
*Mephiles also makes a small cameo in ''[[Sonic Rivals 2]]'' as a collectible card, which is won by getting an S-Rank in any Knock-Out battle.<br />

'''Rusty Ruin Zone''' is the second level of ''[[Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island]]'' for the [[Sega Mega Drive]] and [[Sega Saturn]], coming after [[Green Grove Zone|Green Grove]] and before [[Spring Stadium Zone|Spring Stadium]]. As with other stages in this game, Rusty Ruin consists of two standard Acts followed by a third Act containing only the boss fight. In Acts 1 and 2, [[Sonic]] must free captured [[Flicky|Flickies]] from inside [[badnik]]s, depositing five of the birds into a [[Goal Ring]] to progress between sections of the level (usually three per Act).<br />
<br />
Rusty Ruin fulfills the [[Ancient_Ruins_cliché|ancient ruins cliché]] for the game, and looks as though it's been beneath the waves off [[Flickies' Island]] until quite recently, what with all the soggy kelp-grass littering the stonework. [[Eggman|Robotnik]] has presumably dredged the place out of the sea in his search for the [[Chaos Emeralds]], and repaired the old traps of another long-dead civilization. Accordingly, this level is the first to have harmful obstacles. It features spiked balls, similar to those found in the 2D games. There's pillars that have to be destroyed by using the spinners. It's also the only one to use floating platforms, similar to the ones in the 2D games. Some of these move back and forth, some of them are static until Sonic jumps on them. Flame throwers are present within the walls. If Sonic moves fast enough he can avoid them easily. A few [[Fire Shield]]s are present within the level, which, while conferring no special moves (unlike the [[Gold Shield]], or the fire shield from [[Sonic_3|Sonic 3]]), it can enable Sonic to pass through the flame throwers and not receive damage. <br />
<br />
Rows of fans set in the floor enable [[Sonic]] to perform a Whirl Attack - a kind of spinning pirouette which bears remarkably similarities to [[Espio]]'s maneuver in [[Knuckles' Chaotix]]. While spinning like this, Sonic can break down otherwise impenetrable pillar obstacles, although his handling becomes much more difficult to control.<br />
<br />
In Act 2, there are steep hills that require trampolines to climb. The trampolines come out of certain points in the slope. There's also breakable walls which, unlike the pillars that require a whirl attack, must be [[Spin Dash|spindashed]] through to break. They can lead to different areas in the act. Sometimes they're the only way to get to a point earlier in the act, sometimes they lead to hidden places with power-ups Knuckles, and Tails. These walls look like the spot with the 1-up in the first act, however they are cemented up. There are several of these hidden around, and some walls fit the description but do not break or open.<br />
<br />
Rusty Ruin includes two different varieties of [[badnik]], neither of which are named in official media:<br />
<br />
*[[Rusty Ruin Zone Badnik 1]], a crocodile-like robot<br />
*[[Rusty Ruin Zone Badnik 2]], a bee-like robot<br />
<br />

{{quote|The ruins of the fabled continent of Atlantis were brought up from the depths when Flicky Island was created. Robotnik has fitted the ancient booby traps with modern machinery, making them more dangerous than ever! Dark and gloomy, some parts of the Rusty Ruin Zone are drenched in fog and rain, but Sonic has a job to do and nothing will dampen his spirits.}}<br />

'''''Sonic Colours''''' ''(also known as '''Sonic Colors''' in the USA)'' is a future Sonic title for the [[Nintendo Wii]] and [[Nintendo DS|DS]], in which [[Sonic]] has to save an [[Wisps|alien race]] which is being kept captive at an intergalactic amusement park run by [[Eggman]].<br />
<br />
==Story==<br />
All that is known so far is that that Eggman is using the Wisps to power his amusement park [[Eggmanland]], which he creates by pulling pieces of his amusement park together.<br />
<br />
===Wisps===<br />
The press release states that the alien creatures give Sonic unique abilities to help him traverse new areas. The Wii version gameplay is like ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s Daytime stages, while the DS gameplay is like ''[[Sonic Rush]]'' and ''[[Sonic Rush Adventure]]''.<br />
The game's signature nuance is the appearance of [[Wisps]]; small, color-coded, floating alien creatures that each contain a different ability that Sonic can harness by collecting them. When a Wisp is collected, the gauge on the bottom-left corner of the screen will display which Wisp is currently active. According to information so far, there are at least seven or eight Wisps available in the game. The Wisps that are confirmed are:<br />
<br />
*'''Pink Wisps''', give Sonic long, pointy spikes that allow him to stick to walls. ('''[[Wii]] Only''')<br />
*'''Orange Wisps''', turn Sonic into a rocket that can blast into the air to reach higher areas.<br />
*'''Red Wisps''', turn Sonic into a fireball, similar to the [[Fire Shield]] of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 3]]''. ('''[[DS]] only''')<br />
*'''Yellow Wisps''', turn Sonic into a drill that can dig through certain surfaces, allowing access to other paths.<br />
*'''Cyan Wisps''', turn Sonic into a laser, which allows him to ricochet between walls.<br />
*'''White Wisps''', give Sonic the [[Sonic Boost]], allowing for fast speed bursts which can damage enemies.<br />
<br />
If you look carefully in the announcement trailer, you'll see other Wisps SEGA hadn't revealed yet. For example, there's a pink, blue, violet, and green wisps. Can be seen in 00:17 of the video. They are also revealed on the games boxart.<br />
<br />
==Media==<br />
<br />
===Voice Actors===<br />
This game is notable for being the 1st Sonic game to take place after the major cast change in 2010. All of the [[4Kids]] actors (besides [[Mike Pollock]]) have been replaced with a new cast from this game forward.<br />

<hr />
<div><forumuser name="Dan Genesis" /><br />
'''Dan Genesis''' (real name Dan Heiney, commonly referred to as simply "Dan") is among the most avid of Sonic fans, and has since '98 has done his best to collect every Sonic game and issue of Sonic the Hedgehog Archie comics. Dan has spent the past 10 years studying the mechanics of games of various series, and has studied the layouts of levels to effectively describe the vibrant and varied environments.<br />
<br />
Dan was the winner of the community's [[Blue Sphere]] tournament at level 3001 with a 300 perfect streak.<br />
<br />
== Personality(ies) & Alieses ==<br />
Dan has no one set personality, but he does show several traits that have been clumped under various personas. The major ones are listed below<br />
<br />
=== Dan Genesis ===<br />
Of course, there is his dominant personality, which is at core, analytical. Dan also considers anyone who hates literature a foe, and such people must learn to watch their backs.<br />
<br />
=== Chaos Von Gin ===<br />
The calculating, neutralistic side of Dan's character, '''Chaos Von Gin''' reflects an open-mindedness that often leaves both sides of a story guilty of something. This personality comes forth mostly in touchy subjects like religion.<br />
<br />
=== Zippy Meister ===<br />
The free-willed, free-flowing side to Dan, '''Zippy''' is at times like a cross between classics like Paul McCartney and Keith Richards and hard-hitting brutality like Dave Mustain and Skwisgaar Skwigelf. This personality is usually pretty laid back, but when push comes to shove, he doesn't like losing.<br />
<br />
=== Hack ===<br />
An older side to Dan, '''Hack''' is a gamer from the inside out. If games were capable of being sustinance, Hack would be one fat bastard.<br />
<br />
=== Pengiuno ===<br />
Probably the strangest side to Dan, '''Penguino''' is obsessed with penguins to the point of thinking he ''is'' one.<br />
<br />
=== General Jorgen Mörder ===<br />
Probably Dan's most violent side, '''Jorgen Mörder''' is prone to fits of gunning people down, hanging people upside-down, and just plain old punching them for candy. Hell, his last name even means 'Murderer'!<br />
<br />
== Sonic Retro ==<br />
Dan's claim to fame on [[Sonic Retro]] is expansion and creation of various articles, usually in the form of describing the stage's appearance. Dan is also a self-proclaimed Music Guru, and has worked on several articles in the 'Music' section of the site.<br />
<br />
Joining in late March of 2008, Dan frequented the message boards throughout much of the year, making comments on several topics (though not always in a constructive manner). In late December, however, his visits hit rock bottom, rarely even checking the main page. With the end of the school year comming up, his visits are expected to be increasing in number.<br />

:GMX7: Wait, did you put me in pants? You don't just put someone in pants!<br />
* ''[From X-Gear based side-project novel]'': One of the most depressing things in the world is watching a bird have its wings clipped and it thrown in a cage, never again to soar with its commrades who care for it.<br />
* There are certain things you can't say in a forum. Claiming the admins to be ignorant fucks is one of those things.<br />
* Never listen to what the voices are telling you when you're half-asleep. It's never a good idea.<br />
* Never trust the Japanese to go easy on the fanservice. They will betray your trust every time. Especially with an anime that has anything to do with maids.<br />

<div>[[Image:Sonic Universe 1.jpg|right|thumb|220px|The cover of the 1st issue of Sonic Universe.]] <br />
<br />
'''Sonic Universe''' is an ongoing comic title published by [[Archie]], designed to expand the horizon of the original comics' fictional universe, usually giving the second half of a story belonging to the main issue of that month. It replaced the [[Sonic X (Archie comics)|Sonic X]] series. It began its run on February 25th, 2009, and is subsequently released monthly by Archie Comics along with its counterpart title [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]. <br />
<br />
The objective of the series is to expand upon the Archieverse continuity and focus on other characters besides Sonic the Hedgehog, including characters such as Shadow and Knuckles, as well as other universe continuities. The first year of its run broke the stories down into three 4-part story arcs: the first dealing with Shadow, the second Mobius: 30 Years Later, and the third dealing with Knuckles. The second year will deal with some of the Freedom Fighters battling the Bride of the Endless Reach. <br />
<br />
==Story Arcs==<br />
*The Shadow Saga (#1-4) - Focuses on Shadow the Hedgehog and his missions with the Guardian Units of the Nation. <br />
*Mobius: 30 Years Later (#5-8) - Continues five years after the coup d'etat in the Mobius: X Years Later storyline. <br />
*Knuckles: The Return (#9-12) - Focuses on Knuckles and the Chaotix's adventure in combating Dr. Finitevus. <br />
*Journey to the East (#13-16) - Focuses on Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails, Monkey Khan, and Sally Acorn in their fight against the clans of the Iron Dominion. Corresponds with [[Sonic the Hedgehog 208 (Archie)|issues 208]]-[[Sonic the Hedgehog 212 (Archie)|212]] of the main series.<br />
*The Tails Adventure (#17-20) - An adaptation of [[Tails Adventure]]<br />

The fifth boss battle of ''[[Sonic Heroes]]'' is another '''Team Battle''', in the same style as the [[Power Plant]] [[Team Battle]] fight. This six-man showdown takes place within the [[Frog Forest]] / [[Lost Jungle]] swamp.<br />
<br />
There are some differences in this battle. The opposing team is much more difficult to defeat. They will always switch to the formation that is dominant over the player's. Unlike the first team battle, which had its own music, the music for the second team battle's theme will play a shortened version of the opposing team's theme song. There are only three avaiable [[Power Core]]s on this stage and they sit outside the arena in balloons. There is also a [[Shield]] hidden in a wooden box on the stage.<br />
<br />
==Story==<br />
[[Team Dark]] spots [[Team Sonic]] after passing through the jungle. [[Shadow]] is curious to why there is [[Sonic|another hedgehog]] that looks like him. Sonic, [[Tails]], and [[Knuckles]] are in shock to see Shadow alive after [[Sonic Adventure 2|supposedly dying]]. [[Rouge]] tells them that there efforts are wasted and that she and her team will take care of [[Dr. Eggman]] so that they wouldn't get in the way of her true motives. Being the heroes that they are, Team Sonic refuses to leave despite a death threat from [[Omega]]. The two teams then start a rumble.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, [[Team Rose]] and [[Team Chaotix]] meet each other in the jungle. [[Vector]] wishes to ask [[Amy]] a question but she automatically assumes he wants to date her and interestingly tells him to wait another time. Vector becomes flustered by this and calls her a brat. [[Espio]] then demands that they hand over [[Cheese]] to them because they believe that he's a [[Chao]] that they were [[Lost Jungle#Missions|ordered to protect]]. [[Cream]] then believes that they are the ones that took [[Chocola]] and that they want to take Cheese too. A fight ensues due to a misunderstanding shortly later.<br />

<div>[[Image:michael_jackson.jpg|thumb|right|Michael Jackson with Sonic the Hedgehog.]]<br />
'''Michael Jackson''' (born on August 29, 1958 in Gary, Indiana, USA - died on June 25th, 2009 in Los Angeles, California, USA) was an American musician. In the Sonic community, Jackson is most renowned for his involvement in composing [[Sega]]'s ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 3]]'' soundtrack in 1993. He also worked with [[Sega]] in co-producing ''Michael Jackson's Moonwalker'', a game which was released on several platforms. Many of the ports had drastic differences from one another.<br />
<br />
==Sonic 3 Soundtrack Involvement==<br />
===Brad Buxer Interview=== <br />
On December 2, 2009, a member named [http://vgmdb.net/forums/member.php?u=80 dma] from the website [http://vgmdb.net/ VGMdb] (a website that focuses on video game music) brought attention to an article in ''Black & White Magazine''. This interview was with [[Brad Buxer]], a [[Sonic 3 & Knuckles#Production Credits|credited music composer]] for the Sonic 3 soundtrack. In this interview, Buxer confirms that the final release of ''Sonic 3'' does contain at least one piece of work by Michael Jackson:<br />
<br />
{{quote|1='''B&W:''' Can you clarify the rumor that Michael had in 1993 composed the music for Sonic 3 video game, for which you havel been credited?<br />
<br />
'''Buxer:''' I've never played the game so I do not know what tracks on which Michael and I have worked the developers have kept, but we did compose music for the game. Michael called me at the time for help on this project, and that's what I did.<br />
And if he is not credited for composing the music, it's because he was not happy with the result sound coming out of the console. At the time, game consoles did not allow an optimal sound reproduction, and Michael found it frustrating. He did not want to be associated with a product that devalued his music...<br />
<br />
'''B&W:''' One of the surprising things in this soundtrack is that you can hear the chords from Stranger in Moscow, which is supposed to have been composed later...<br />
<br />
'''Buxer:''' Yes, Michael and I had composed those chords for the game, and it has been used as base for Stranger in Moscow. [...]<br />
|2=An excerpt from the Black & White Magazine interview with Brad Buxer}}<br />
<br />
According to this statement, Jackson did not wish to be credited by name in the game because he was unhappy with the quality of sound the [[Sega Mega Drive]]'s Yamaha [[YM-2612]] sound chip produced. Buxer's statement also confirms that the similarity between Jackson's "Stranger in Moscow" and Sonic 3's ending credits song are not a coincidence, and that the credits theme indeed uses chords originally composed by him and Buxer. This statement directly contradicts what another Sega employee, [[Roger Hector]], claimed about Jackson's involvement. Scans of the interview can be found [[Brad Buxer Interview (Black & White, November/December 2009)|here]].<br />
<br />
===Roger Hector Interview: "His work was dropped"===<br />
In September of 2005, an interview was conducted by [[HXC]] with [[Roger Hector]], the Executive Coordinator for ''Sonic the Hedgehog 3'' and General Manager of the SEGA Technical Institute for a number of years. In this interview, Hector reveals information about Jackson's involvement in composing the game's soundtrack. When asked about his favorite project:<br />
<br />
{{quote|1=''Sonic 3'' (also called ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]'') was a lot of fun, but it was also very difficult. Michael Jackson was originally brought in to compose all the music for the game, but at the very end, his work was dropped after his scandals became public. This caused a lot of problems and required a lot of reworking. But the game turned out great in the end.|2=Roger Hector, General Manager of the SEGA Technical Institute}}<br />
<br />
This statement reveals that a soundtrack was indeed composed by Jackson for ''Sonic 3'', but, according to Hector, was dropped from the game (whether complete or not at the time) due to his child molestation allegations. Before this interview, little attention was brought to the thought of Jackson being involved in ''Sonic 3'', but after, more information was revealed about Sega's plan with Jackson to compose the game's music.<br />
<br />
[[Howard Drossin]], a composer for a number of Sega games, would contribute to the soundtrack that is now used in ''Sonic 3''. Brad Buxer, Doug Grisby III, Bobby Brooks, Darryl Ross and Geoff Grace also lent their work to ''Sonic 3''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s soundtrack. Interestingly, these same people have also worked with Michael Jackson at some point in their careers.<br />
<br />
===Evidence for his involvement===<br />
The Buxer interview confirms that Jackson helped compose at least the chords for one song: the Sonic 3 credits theme. While Hector stated that all of Jackson's work was removed from ''Sonic 3'' upon his child molestation allegations, many have noticed other similarities between Jackson's own released music and Sonic 3 songs. As Hector was outside of the development team he may have not had correct information.<br />
<br />
====Audio similarities====<br />
In a [http://youtube.com/watch?v=JbVM-l2Oku4 2006 documentary] by [[Qjimbo]], a theory was developed stating that Jackson's work was not completely removed after all. Similarities between some tracks in the final ''Sonic 3'' and Jackson's own work outside of Sega were evidence for this claim.<br />
<br />
====="Smooth Criminal", "Who Is It", & IceCap Zone Act 1=====<br />
A good portion of Jackson's [[wikipedia:Smooth Criminal|"Smooth Criminal"]] has a chord structure similar to that of [[IceCap Zone]] Act 1. This is especially noticeable in the version that plays in the [[wikipedia:Moonwalker|"Moonwalker" movie]], which isn't found on the [[wikipedia:Bad (album)|''Bad'']] album. Roughly six minutes into the song, following the bass solo after the quiet orchestral section (as Jackson and the gangsters perform the Lean), the bassline and string section clearly changes to a piece of music very similar to IceCap Zone. After the main bassline returns, a keyboard continues to play the IceCap chord sequence until the end of the song. This was first noticed by [[Shade (scener)|Shade]].<br />
<br />
Jackson's [[wikipedia:Who Is It (Michael Jackson song)|"Who Is It"]] is also very similar to both "Smooth Criminal" and IceCap Zone Act 1. The keyboard section under the chorus, when sped up, has an almost identical chord structure and texture to that of IceCap Zone Act 1. This was first noticed by [[Dioxaz]].<br />

|}<br />
<br />
====="Jam" & Carnival Night Zone=====<!--Linked from [[Ben2k9]]--><br />
The similarities between [[wikipedia:Jam (song)|"Jam"]] and [[Carnival Night Zone]] (both acts) were spotted by [[Ben2k9]] before it was even known that Michael Jackson worked on the music for Sonic 3. The tracks themselves aren't very similar, but there is a horn-based "downwards fall" (played directly before Michael Jordan's rap in the Jackson song) that also appears during Carnival Night. Carnival Night also uses a small sample taken from "Jam" (the sound of breaking glass as well as Heavy D uttering the word "Jam" from the beginning of his rap verse).<br />
<br />
[[Image:Michael_Jackson_Jam_and_Carnival_Night_Zone_comparison.png|frame|center|The [[Carnival Night Zone]] melody is compared to horns in "Jam" from the album ''Dangerous'' (transposed down one semitone). Identical notes between the two songs are highlighted in red.]]<br />
<br />
This similar "downwards fall" is also apparent audibly:<br />

|}<br />
<br />
====="Stranger in Moscow" & ''Sonic 3'' Credits=====<br />
[[wikipedia:Stranger In Moscow|"Stranger In Moscow"]] is one of Jackson's songs that sounds most remarkably similar to a ''Sonic 3'' song. The synth/strings section, as heard in the intro before the lyrics start, is identical to the sequence that plays during the first section of the ending theme to Sonic 3. It should be noted that both MJ and Dreams Come True (whose band member [[Masato Nakamura]] help composed music for ''[[Sonic 1]]'' and ''[[Sonic 2]]'') decided to use ending music elsewhere, or vice versa. This was discovered by [[Shade (scener)|Shade]].<br />
<br />
=====Sound Effects=====<br />
Michael Jackson's [[wikipedia:Blood on the Dance Floor (song)|Blood on the Dance Floor]] contains samples that sound identical to the short 4-bar swinging hiphop beat that was used for Knuckles Theme on the original ''[[Sonic 3]]''. Peculiarly enough this was one of the tracks that was replaced with the release of ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]'', and did not appear in the PC release of the game.<br />
<br />
====Cirocco discography====<br />
A discography of another musician working on the game, Cirocco (appearing as 'Scirocco' in the ''Sonic 3'' credits), lists a "levels 2 & 3" as being composed by Michael Jackson and belonging to "Sonic The Hedgehog." [http://www.musicpowers.com/id31.html] This "levels 2 & 3" could be referring to [[Hydrocity Zone]] and [[Marble Garden Zone]], respectively. However, this may be referring to work that had been composed, but already removed from the game.<br />
<br />
====Unable to credit Jackson====<br />
Even if Jackson's work was used in ''Sonic 3'', there was a possibility his name [http://www.eeggs.com/items/2279.html could not appear] in the credits due to contractual complications. In 1991, Jackson guest starred in the episode, ''[[wikipedia:Stark Raving Dad|Stark Raving Dad]]'', in the third season of the American animated sitcom ''[[wikipedia:The Simpsons|The Simpsons]]'' Jackson was credited as John Jay Smith, a person that does not exist. The character Lisa Simpson refers to Jackson's work in [[wikipedia:Homer's Triple Bypass|a season four episode]] when talking about an Itchy and Scratchy movie: "And you wouldn't believe the celebrities who did cameos. Dustin Hoffman, Michael Jackson...of course they didn't use their real names, but you could tell it was them." If Jackson could not be credited for his work in ''The Simpsons'', then his work in ''Sonic 3'' may also have been uncredited if it was included in the final game, if the same line of thought is followed. This was discovered by [[XCubed³]].<br />
<br />
====Removed tracks in PC version====<br />
The PC remake ''[[Sonic & Knuckles Collection]]'' featured replaced tracks for Carnival Night Zone, Ice Cap Zone, Launch Base Zone, the Knuckles Theme of ''Sonic 3'', and the ''Sonic 3'' credits music. One theory behind [[Sonic & Knuckles Collection#Differences from console version|the reason for replacing these tracks]] is that the original tracks may have been composed by Jackson, and were removed in this remake due to legal reasons.<br />

'''''Sega Superstars Tennis''''' is a tennis video game developed by [[Sumo Digital]] and published by [[Sega]]. The game was released on March 17, 2008 in Europe, on March 18, 2008 in North America, and on March 27, 2008 in Australia. There is still no confirmed release date for Japan. The game includes 16 playable characters, and 10 courts from Sega franchises, including ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'', ''The House of the Dead'', ''[[Alex Kidd (game series)|Alex Kidd]]'', ''[[Space Channel 5]]'' and many others. Fifteen Sega franchises are represented in the game in total.<br />
<br />
==Console differences==<br />
The [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]] versions both have online play, while the [[Wii]] version has three different control schemes (Wii remote, Wii remote and Nunchuk, and the Classic Controller), as well as motion control. The Wii Remote scheme controls similar to Wii Sports tennis.<br />
<br />
==Gameplay==<br />
[[File:SEGA Superstars Tennis Character Select.jpg|thumb|right|Player Select Screen.]]<br />
'''Superstar Mode''' allows you to play missions which include exhibition matches, tournaments and missions based around a specific Sega game including ''Sonic the Hedgehog'', ''Puyo Pop Fever'' and ''Virtua Cop''. Completing various missions allows you to unlock items such as courts, stages, soundtracks and characters. It is for single player only.<br />
<br />
'''Exhibition Mode''' offers the chance to challenge the character of your choice, to a match on one of many courts, including Sonic's home court of [[Green Hill Zone]], or Amigo's Carnival Park court. Wherever the players plays there will be a host of Sega celebrities cheering them on from court side and by partaking in doubles matches with their choice of partner.<br />
<br />
'''Tournament Mode''' allows you to play in a series of matches against opponents chosen at random by the computer in arena also chosen at random. In some instances a 'special match' at the end of the tournament can be played, in singles it is against Dr. Eggman and n doubles it is against Dr. Eggman and Shadows the Hedgehog.<br />
<br />
There are several playable '''mini-games''' in ''Sega Superstars Tennis'', including ones from Sega games such as a ''The House of the Dead'' meets ''Space Invaders'' game, in which the player has to hit moving targets, a ''Space Harrier'' game, a ''Puyo Puyo'' game, and a ''Virtua Cop'' game.<br />

<hr />
<div>{{LevelBob<br />
| levelscreen=06_AquaBase.PNG<br />
| screenwidth=320<br />
| levelno=Ninth/Sixth/Seventh<br />
| game=Sonic '06<br />
| osv=<br />
}}<br />
'''Aquatic Base''' is a stage in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)|Sonic the Hedgehog (2006)]]'' for the [[Xbox 360]] and [[Playstation 3]]. As with other levels in the game, it features in all three of [[Sonic]], [[Shadow]], and [[Silver]]'s stories, although the characters fight their way through the area at different times and for different reasons.<br />
<br />
Hidden beneath the waters of [[Kingdom Valley]], Aquatic Base was a secret research facility for the city-state of [[Soleanna]]. It was here that the [[Duke of Soleanna|Duke]] and Lord Regis, among others, conducted their time-manipulation experiments on the [[Flame of Hope]] during the [[Solaris Project]]. After the project failed, both Aquatic Base and Kingdom Valley were abandoned by Soleanna; although at some point in the intervening years, [[Robotnik]] has snuck in and retooled the facility as a submarine hiding place for his [[Egg Carrier]].<br />
<br />
Huge pressure-windows afford a view of swimming dolphins outside, while shield-doors and laser fences restrict movement within the top-secret facility. Several rooms are filled with strange, mercurial orbs; the metallic spheres can be attracted to souped-up electromagnetic pillars, thoroughly pulverising anything that gets in their way. The pillars can also serve to obliterate any [[Egg Gunner]]s standing too close during [[Sonic]]'s playthrough.<br />
<br />
==Sonic's Story==<br />
{{S06_Level<br />
| charcolor = pink<br />
| bgcolor = blue<br />
| character = Sonic the Hedgehog<br />
| levelno = 9<br />
| areas = 2<br />
| 2ndchara = [[Tails]], [[Knuckles]]<br />
| boss = [[Egg-Wyvern]]<br />
| srank = 50,000 pts<br />
}}<br />
:'''''Mission: Stop the Egg Carrier's Launch!'''''<br />
<br />
[[Sonic]] and [[Silver]]'s blitz through [[Kingdom Valley]] ends in ''deus ex machina'' tragedy when [[Robotnik]]'s [[Egg Carrier]] arbitrarily explodes, killing [[Elise]] and presumably rendering the [[Day of Disaster]] inevitable. As Sonic pounds the ground in frustration, [[Silver]] realises that they still have the opportunity to cheat fate. Working together, they open a [[Chaos Control]] portal to the past, depositing Sonic back in Castle Town a day earlier, to prevent the launch of the doomed Carrier from Aquatic Base.<br />
<br />
Recruiting the past versions of [[Tails]] and [[Knuckles]], Sonic blasts into the old research facility; no longer abandoned, the area is swarming with Eggman robots and still-active Soleanna defences to guard Eggman's hanger. This is the only mission in the game (barring the [[End of the World]]) where gameplay switches between ''three'' characters. Tails and Knuckles take care of the sections involving bottomless pits, finding switches to allow Sonic to proceed on foot.<br />
<br />
==Shadow's Story==<br />
{{S06_Level<br />
| charcolor = red<br />
| bgcolor = black<br />
| character = Shadow the Hedgehog<br />
| levelno = 6<br />
| areas = 2<br />
| 2ndchara = [[Silver]]<br />
| boss = None<br />
| srank = 50,000 pts<br />
}}<br />
:'''''Mission: Follow Mephiles!'''''<br />
<br />
[[Shadow]] (and [[Silver]]'s) visit to Aquatic Base takes place back in time, when the facility was still under the supervision of the [[Duke of Soleanna|Duke]]. After witnessing firsthand the collapse of the [[Solaris Project]] and the scission of [[Solaris]] into [[Iblis]] and [[Mephiles]], the two hedgehogs take off through the facility to stop the newborn demigods before they can cause any further damage.<br />
<br />
Shadow's route here is similar to Sonic's, with Silver stepping in to levitate his way through [[Tails]] and [[Knuckles]]' areas. During the final section of security tunnels, Shadow is conveniently provided with a motorbike with which to speedily mow down the [[Iblis monsters]] released by the recent disaster.<br />
<br />
After the level, Shadow uses [[Chaos Control]] to seal Mephiles in the [[Scepter of Darkness]], thereby instigating the demigod's [[Kingdom Valley#Shadow's Story|previously unexplained]] thirst for revenge against Shadow.<br />
<br />
==Silver's Story==<br />
{{S06_Level<br />
| charcolor = cyan<br />
| bgcolor = silver<br />
| character = Silver the Hedgehog<br />
| levelno = 7<br />
| areas = 1<br />
| 2ndchara = [[Shadow]]<br />
| boss = None<br />
| srank = 50,000 pts<br />
}}<br />
:'''''Mission: Follow Iblis!'''''<br />
<br />
Occuring concurrently with Shadow's story, Silver's playthrough includes the Ultimate Lifeform as a vice-versa secondary character. Having just observed the birth of both his [[Mephiles the Dark|mysterious benefactor]] and [[Iblis|greatest enemy]] in the same catastrophe, Silver rushes off in an effort to infanticide Iblis.<br />
<br />
Shadow is controlled only in a brief section at the start of the level; from then on, it's all Silver. Although similar segments exist for both Sonic and Shadow's stories, Silver has to navigate a particularly lengthy route atop one of the giant mercury spheres, dodging both laser fences and the [[Iblis monsters]] inhabiting platforms on the walls.<br />
<br />
In the post-level cutscene, Silver watches the Duke's dying act of sealing Iblis inside [[Elise]]. The hedgehog then goes on to initiate two quite pernicious paradoxes, locking the blue Emerald in an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontological_paradox ontological loop] and taking the grey Emerald out of history for 10 years, thereby precluding any of the [[super transformation]]s seen in previous games. "''Thanks a lot, Silver.''"<br />

}}'''Princess Elise The Third''' is a character from ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' and is the princess of [[Soleanna]]. She is voiced by [[Lacey Chabert]] in English and [[Maaya Sakamoto]] in Japanese. On the stages where Sonic carries her she can activate a shield that allows Sonic to run on surfaces which would normally cause him to sink, such as water.<br />
<br />
When she was seven years old, she was with her father, the [[Duke of Soleanna]], when he tried to extract energy from the sun god of Soleanna, [[Solaris]]. The [[Solaris Project|experiment]] accidentally splits the deity in two entities, but the Duke manages to transfer one half, [[Iblis]], into Elise. He then tells her that she must never cry, as that would release the destructive Iblis, also known as the "Flames of Disaster."<br />
<br />
In the present time of the game, Elise celebrates the Festival of the Sun in Soleanna. [[Doctor Eggman]] then attacks the city and kidnaps Elise, out to get her [[Chaos Emerald]] and the power of the Flames of Disaster locked inside her. [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] quickly chases after them. Elise is later killed when the [[Egg Carrier]] explodes, but Sonic and [[Silver the Hedgehog|Silver]] use [[Chaos Control]] to go back in time and save her.<br />
<br />
In the "Last Story", Sonic is killed by [[Mephiles]], the other half of Solaris. Elise breaks down and cries, releasing Iblis, who fuses into Solaris with Mephiles. After Sonic's friends find the seven Chaos Emeralds, Elise uses their powers to heal Sonic, and with the help of a kiss from Elise, Sonic became healed as Super Sonic (Elise heals him with the seven Chaos Emeralds), and then [[Super Sonic]] gives some of his power to [[Shadow]] and [[Silver]], transforming them into [[Super Shadow]], and [[Super Silver]]. After Solaris is destroyed by [[Super Sonic]], Super Shadow, and Super Silver, Sonic and Elise go back in time to when Solaris was just a flame. Elise takes the flame and tells Sonic that if it blows out, the flame that will become Solaris in the future, it will result in her and Sonic never meeting. Though she doesn't want their friendship to end, Sonic convinces her to abandon their meeting. With tears in her eyes, Elise gently blows out the flame, which removes Solaris from existence, thus erasing the whole game's events and happenings. Afterwards, the timeline changes so she is never kidnapped, and never meets Sonic. All the events of the game never happened.<br />
<br />
Princess Elise makes a small cameo in ''[[Sonic Rivals 2]]'' as a collectible card.<br />

=Hedgehog Havoc, Pt. 2=<br />
<br />
Continuing from the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 195 (Archie)|last issue]], The Freedom Fighters and the Suppression Squad are seen in the Brain Trust Lab at Freedom HQ arguing over leaving [[Sonic]] and [[Amy]] (among others) stranded on Moebius with the power-crazed Scourge. Confident that the "Heroes" have been able to stomp Scourge (being unaware of the Anarchy Beryl in the throne), Miles convinces Princess Alicia to venture back to their home with the [[Freedom Fighters]]. However, they are shocked to find that King Scourge has beaten down not only Sonic, but also [[Silver]], [[Shadow]], Amy, [[Metal Sonic]], Rob O'The Hedge and Amy's counterpart Rosy.<br />
<br />
Not surprisingly, Scourge is happy to see the new arrivials, if only to "soften his knuckles" on them. Before they have time to react, he quickly strikes at [[Bunnie Rabbot|Bunnie]], and then pins [[Antoine]] to the floor. When [[Tails]] attempts to stop him, Scourge simply swats him away like a fly, calling him a "mutant brat". He then turns his attention on [[Sally]], lifting her up, then proceeding to throw her across the room, taunting her while doing so. He gives her counterpart a similar treatment, tossing her into the throne. Boomer and Patch then attempt to bring him down, but to no avail. Scourge effortlessly deflects Boomer's sonic blasts, whilst being unharmed by Patch's sword (the sword breaking to pieces, in fact). Threatening to blind Patch, he tosses him into Boomer, then turns to Miles, who cowers in fear, having organized the Suppression Squad's mutiny.<br />
<br />
Before Scourge is capable of harming Miles, Silver uses his psychokinetic abilities to hold Scourge, who easily breaks out of the psychic grip. At that moment, Sonic is contemplating his own weaknesses when in Super form, only to be interrupted by Metal Sonic, who has changed priorities to Sonic due to a success rate of zero against Scourge in his Super form. Before the battle drags on, Shadow breaks up the fight, and uses Chaos Control to teleport himself and Metal Sonic to the [[Sonic X 40 (Archie)|Sonic X universe]].<br />
<br />
Scourge, however, has been dealing with Rosy, who is angry that Scourge "isn't squishy anymore". Fed up with her deranged interferance, he throws her into a wall. Rob O'The Hedge takes this oppertunity to use a rope trap arrow to pin Rosy to the wall, to protect his cousin's counterpart. Meanwhile, Sonic is interrogating Miles as to where he can find more Anarchy Beryl, only to learn it is far from the castle. Miles suggests luring Scourge back to Mobius and using the Chaos Emeralds, but as most of them are in the Special Zone, and the other two out of their reach, they cannot.<br />
<br />
Sally forms a plan to stop Scourge. Having Silver hold him in place and Bunnie and Boomer force him down with their blasters, the whole gang piles on him to hold him down until he powers down. But Scourge proves too powerful for them to keep down. Sonic spindashes at Scourge repeatedly, until the latter drags him out into the rain, throwing him to the ground. Scourge reveals he now plans to spindash both Moebius and Mobius in half, and continue stomping planets until he finds one that would give him the respect he "deserves". In the middle of his monologue, Sonic runs off into the woods, again pondering his Super form's weaknesses. He realizes that he feels great when he goes super, even after powering down.<br />
<br />
This makes him realize that Scourge, being his opposite, would be drained if he were to power down. Tricking Scourge into powering down by claiming he couldn't beat Sonic in his normal form, he beats Scourge at his own game, explaining that, while the source of power is different, the Super forms are the same, though Scourge's may last a little longer. The difference is that Sonic powers down with a small boost, and Scourge with a debilitating crash. Scourge attempts to stand back up to Sonic, saying he was "cheated", recalling his conquering of Moebius, and calling Sonic "nothing".<br />
<br />
Sonic responds by angrily shattering Scourge's crown. He tells Scourge he is nothing but a bully that takes the easy way to the quick reward. He goes on to comment on how he helps others to make something bigger and better than just mean. The next day, Boomer can be seen disconneting their stolen globe posts, so that the Freedom Fighters and Buns can return them to their rightful owner, Dr. Kintobor. As they are leaving, Miles and Alicia are left to dicuss their next course of action, including and unspoken agreement that Miles will soon be king.<br />
<br />
At Dr. Kintobor's Tower, Sonic and Silver are working out the problem they had earlier. Silver agrees that Sonic is not the [[Espio|traitor]] that he was looking for, and says he will be back when he finds out who it is. Inside the tower, Dr. Kintobor thanks Sonic for his help. Sally says that it's all wrapped up, as she and Sonic are the last two to go home. Sonic says that isn't quite the case, as he plans to go to the Parallel Zone, not only to lock up Scourge, but also to get some answers, setting up for the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 197 (Archie)|next issue]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* Recently, the backstory of [[Sonic the Hedgehog 201 (Archie)|Issue 201]] (''Devotion'') suggest that Espio may be the aforementioned traitor. This was later confirmed in the main story of [[Sonic the Hedgehog 202 (Archie)|Issue 202]].<br />

'''Sky Sanctuary Zone''' is the sixth level of ''[[Sonic & Knuckles]]'' (the twelfth of ''[[Sonic 3 & Knuckles]]''). It is the second-to-last zone for [[Sonic]] and [[Tails]], containing three bosses, and the last for [[Knuckles]], who has two to fight against. For Sonic, the level (technically Act 1) will work its way upwards, chasing after the [[Death Egg]]. Knuckles is grabbed at the beginning of the level (technically Act 2) by the [[Eggmobile]] and taken to the boss.<br />
<br />
All the Characters enter from a teleporter from Hidden Palace, but Sonic and Tails are the only ones to go on, jumping onto the [[Death Egg Zone (S&K)|Death Egg]] as Sky Sanctuary begins to fall apart.<br />
<br />
Sonic's bosses:<br />
*The first boss is a clone of [[Green Hill Zone]]'s boss piloted by [[Mecha Sonic (Sky Sanctuary Zone Boss)|Mecha Sonic]].<br />
*The second boss is a clone of [[Metropolis Zone]]'s boss, also piloted by Mecha Sonic.<br />
*The third boss is [[Mecha Sonic (Sky Sanctuary Zone Boss)|Mecha Sonic]] himself. He is easy to defeat: When he's in the corner, hit him on the front part of the head. The first and second loops, he is a ball when he moves across. If you're good, you can hit him three times on both of those and on the third loop, you should be able to beat him since he dashes. He dashes to and fro once, then repeats the process. He takes eight hits to defeat.<br />
<br />
Knuckles' bosses are really his Final Boss, which comes in two parts:<br />
*The first part is [[Mecha Sonic (Sky Sanctuary Zone Boss)|Mecha Sonic]], and he acts just the same as he does against Sonic. Finish him off with an easy eight hits.<br />
*The second part is against [[Super Mecha Sonic]]. He'll charge himself with the Master Emerald's power, then fly above you. He has 4 attacks: Dashing across the ground, hitting the ground in ball form, firing three energy balls, and shooting out fatter, darker versions of rings that hurt you upon contact. After using the energy rings, Mecha Sonic will revert to normal and have to recharge. This is your chance to strike. As before, eight hits will finish him off.<br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 9''' is the ninth issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]]. It was released in March 1994. <br />
<br />
This comic features two stories: Pseudo-Sonic and What's the Point?, along with three featurettes: Tooth or Consequences, Quick Sketch, and Pumped-Up Sonic. <br />
<br />
==Pseudo-Sonic==<br />
[[Dr. Robotnik]] is showing, to the reader, all the information he knows about Sonic the Hedgehog on a display. He rolls the display paper up and boasts that he has used it to create the ultimate evil robot: [[Pseudo Sonic (character)|Pseudo Sonic]], a mechanized doppelgänger of Sonic. Robotnik looks over a list of powers that his new Sonic double has, one of which states that he requires 3500 AA batteries. Pseudo Sonic suddenly picks up Robotnik and carries him away, crashing through the wall of his factory, boosting Robotnik's memory that the double has the same super speed that the normal Sonic has, and that he can stop on a dime. It takes this command seriously (and literally, at a dime coin) and stops instantly, propelling Robotnik over a cliff from the speed. A dazed Robotnik realizes he still has a few bugs to iron out before he can send Pseudo Sonic out.<br />
<br />
In the [[Great Forest]], [[Antoine]] is standing guard at the secret entrance to [[Knothole Village]] when [[Sonic]] pops out from the tree trunk door, knocking Antoine aside. Sonic runs off, heading out on a mission to get some flowers for [[Sally Acorn]], knocking Antoine over again from the speed of his take-off. He arrives at a meadow full of flowers and starts picking some, when he is greeted by [[Betty Butterfly]], a small butterfly. She warns him that he's picking flowers from poison blossoms, making him jump in fear. Being extremely allergic to the blossoms, Sonic starts itching his whole body as it starts to swell up. Betty shows Sonic to the readers, who has grown tremendously in size due to the swelling, and doesn't look well at all.<br />
<br />
Back at the Knothole entrance, it is night, and Antoine is still on guard. He sees Sonic's shadow in the distance and tells him that he is late for curfew. He opens the door and heads down to Knothole, not realizing that Sonic is actually Pseudo Sonic. In Knothole itself, it is late and everybody is getting ready for the night. [[Bunnie Rabbot]] shuts down her salon, and [[Rotor Walrus]] is keeping track of the time, realizing that Antoine and Sonic are late. Sally hears them coming down the Knothole tube, as Betty Butterfly arrives as well. Antoine arrives, complaining about pushing, only to have the group realize that Sonic isn't who he is, but rather his phony duplicate. As they react in fear, Pseudo Sonic takes out a microphone and prepares to send Robotnik the coordinates of Knothole. Robotnik, watching from a monitor, asks how it found Knothole so easily. Pseudo Sonic states he zig-zagged throughout the forest until he found Antoine and duped him into revealing the entrance. Everybody looks at Antoine in anger as he tries to put blame on the artist for drawing Pseudo Sonic in silhouette. Robotnik, meanwhile, takes out a memo pad and asks for the coordinates. Just as Pseudo Sonic prepares to state them, the signal for the display breaks up and stops. <br />
<br />
Tails has stopped the transmission, and Pseudo Sonic itself, by running around it, with his tails rubbing the ground, creating static electricity to interfere with its operation. The electricity is too much and Pseudo Sonic blows up. With the remaining pieces left over, Rotor takes them to his shop to analyze them. However, there still remains one problem, the Freedom Fighters don't know where the real Sonic is. <br />
<br />
Sonic is still in the forest, having used all his power to get out of the poison blossom patch, but he is still swollen, doesn't look well, and extremely itchy. Wanting to get back to Knothole, he tries to enter into a Sonic spin, but falls over due to being weak. In the distance, and coming in fast, Robotnik arrives at the Great Forest, using the initial data he received from Pseudo Sonic, in his [[eggmobile]]. He arrives, finding a weak and defenceless Sonic on the ground. <br />
<br />
Back in Knothole, Rotor analyzes Pseudo Sonic's head, confirming that it was made by Robotnik. Tails wonders what has happened to Sonic, so Betty Butterfly flies over and tells Sally that he got trapped in a poison blossom bush. Sonic, meanwhile, is having a hard time dealing with Robotnik as he uses a flamethrower on the weakened hedgehog. He then brings out a mace from his eggmobile and prepares to hit Sonic. He swoops in for the kill, Sonic too weak to move, only to be stopped by a laser blast that destroys the vehicle. Sonic looks over to see Bunnie Rabbit hop onto the scene, having used a laser in her robotic hand. She takes Robotnik, lifting him up with ease, and jumps with him back to Robotropolis. At the fence to the city, she throws him away into it. Bunnie hops back and expels an ointment from her robotic arm to help Sonic deal with the swelling from the blossoms. <br />
<br />
Bunnie and Sonic, now all healed, arrive back at the entrance to Knothole, just as Rotor looks up. He takes out the trash and greets Sonic, who asks if he missed any action. As they enter, Rotor tells him that nothing much happens if he isn't around. Sonic thinks that he is, then, hard to replace, just as a disassembled Pseudo Sonic, in the trash can Rotor brought out, asks if he can have a sequel with enough Sonic-grams. <br />
<br />
==Tooth or Consequences==<br />
Robotnik is playing some mini-putt with golf balls and a cup when [[Orbinaut]] arrives, notifying him that his latest robot creation is complete. He runs to the new robot in glee, hoping that it can defeat Sonic and the others once and for all. A [[Swatbot]] stands guard, introducing Robotnik to the new bot. Robotnik, however, reacts in shock and asks for the robot to be destroyed immediately. He walks off in a sweat as he realizes he isn't even cruel enough to make this robot: the Dentist 'Bot. <br />
<br />
==Quick Sketch==<br />
In response to letters, Sonic shows how to draw himself, only to have the drawing run off when it's done.<br />
<br />
==What's the Point?==<br />
Sonic has picked Sally some forget-me-nots as a present, but his speed has caused the flowers' pedals to fly away, leaving a stem. He sits down under a tree, realizing that he has no present for Sally, and a party for her is going on right that moment. In the middle of his thinking, a bird falls on him and onto the ground. Sonic looks at the animal closely and notices that it is a Mobian Needle Bird, half-bird and half-porcupine, a species Sonic thought were roboticized. The animal shows off one of its wings, which is injured. First, Sonic decides to get it some food, thinking of different things it can eat. He runs off to grab some, and returns with some berries. Sonic then remembers that Sally likes animals, so he decides to bring it back for her. <br />
<br />
Sonic arrives at the party, only to have Sally asking Sonic to get rid of the bird (Thorny). Sonic tries to reason with her, saying it's injured and can't protect itself. Sally reminds Sonic of the other animals they tried to protect, including a beaver who was actually a rotor, a squirrel with a tracking device, and a baby deer that could transform into an aerial bomber. After her speech, Sonic looks around and notice that Thorny has gone missing. The group looks over to see it has eaten Sally's berry cake. Sally looks at Sonic, who has Throny, and yells at him, telling him to get rid of it. Rotor, meanwhile, offers to make a new cake for Sally and plans to pick more berries, but Sally, in her anger, grabs a basket and decides to do it herself. <br />
<br />
Out in the forest, Sonic places Thorny high up on a tree in a nest, when they both hear a shriek nearby. They look over to see Sally, who has been taken by a living tree while in the middle of picking berries. Back in Robotropolis, [[Snively]] notifies Robotnik that one of their forest traps has caught a Freedom Fighter, as they see the sentient tree capturing Sally on a display. Robotnik decides to go to the forest personally to get Sally.<br />
<br />
(Sonic talks to the reader about the different tree and plant puns used in the comic, using many puns himself.)<br />
<br />
Sonic runs over to where he heard Sally's scream, but can't find her in the trees. Just as the sentient tree goes to catch Sonic, he is swooped away by Thorny, who's wings are now fine. Despite what Sally said to Thorny, Sonic convinces it to help him find Sally, as she continues screaming for help. They find her, held by the tree, so Sonic enters into a [[spindash]] and cuts through the tree's arm that is holding Sally, dropping her, but Sally still can't get loose from it. Sonic, meanwhile, looks up to see Robotnik with a portable roboticizer. Before he can fire, an egg falls on his head, dropped by Thorny. He wipes off the egg mess, then is hit by a series of porcupine spines by Thorny, causing Robotnik to run away in pain. Sonic helps Sally out, as she thanks Thorny, despite the feelings from earlier. The three walk along together, making Thorny an honorary Freedom Fighter. <br />
<br />
==Background Information==<br />
*[[Pseudo Sonic (character)|Pseudo Sonic]] is based on the same robot designed by Robotnik in the [[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]] episode ''[[Pseudo Sonic]]''.<br />
*This issue uses Sally's original pink style.<br />
*Rotor Walrus, in his first appearance in this issue, wears a 'My Name is Rotor' tag. The comic, for the first few issues, mistakenly referred to him as Boomer. This issue is brought up again as the group enter Rotor's shop, which originally said 'Boomer's Shop', but has the name 'Rotor' put over it.<br />
*As revealed in a special in Sonic Archives Vol. III, the issue was originally scripted to feature [[Scourge|Evil Sonic]] instead of Pseudo-Sonic.<br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 8''' is the eight issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]]. It was released in March 1994. <br />
<br />
This comic features two stories: 'Bot's All Folks! and A Little Sonic Goes a Long Way. <br />
<br />
=='Bot's All Folks!==<br />
[[Dr. Robotnik]] is reading a pollution index form when a [[Swatbot]] enters, holding [[Crabmeat]] and, against [[Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Archie)|Robotnik's rules]], a number of his [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] comic books. For punishment, Robotnik takes Crabmeat to the spare part separator. Crabmeat, in desperation, states that he had the comic books to help Robotnik, thinking that he could use super-powered robots to destroy Sonic and the others. The Swatbot, eager to see Crabmeat separated, urges Robotnik to throw it in. Robotnik then realizes, with Crabmeat's idea, that he would need many spare parts, so he throws both Crabmeat and the Swatbot into the machine. <br />
<br />
A few days later, on the edge of the [[Great Forest]], Robotnik and a Swatbot are commemorating the start of a new toxic dump. Before he can complete his speech, Sonic rushes in, knocking Robotnik over. While Sonic gloats, Robotnik brings out a flashlight and shines a Robotnik signal into the air to bring some needed help: Botman, a humanoid caped robot. It drops down from the sky and kicks Sonic aside. Sonic rushes at Botman at super speed, only to be reflected by the armor of its stomach. As Sonic quivers on the ground in defeat, Robotnik walks over and gloats himself, with a Swatbot taping the whole thing. Sonic, meanwhile, gets up and enters into a spindash, having played possum, and jumps at Botman. The two fight, only to have Botman triumph, standing over a down-and-out Sonic, with the rest of the Freedom Fighters watching on TV.<br />
<br />
As Robotnik celebrates, a Crabmeat discovers a pile of robot parts nearby. Robotnik walks over and notices they are the parts he used to build Botman. Suddenly, the other Botman topples over and breaks apart: pushed by Sonic. During the earlier fight, he took the husk of Botman and posed him to drive Robotnik nuts. Robotnik reacts in anger, but has another trick up his sleeve. He brings out Crabmeat's box of comic books for inspiration. A truck arrives, in it is another super-powered robot Robotnik ordered. He shows Sonic an issue of Wolverine as a Swatbot opens the truck, revealing an order mistake: the Wolvurkel bot. A Steve Urkel-look alike dances out of the truck causing Sonic to laugh. As Robotnik crushes Crabmeat in anger, Sonic looks at the bot, thinking it sounds familiar. Robotnik, meanwhile, goes through the comic books to find more inspiration.<br />
<br />
From the other side of the Great Forest, the Spawnmower appears, a large lawnmower with the body of Spawn. It starts cutting down the Great Forest with ease. However, the Spawnmower stops every few frames to pose for the viewers, so Sonic takes this opportunity yank it's wires and shut it down. He then pushes it off a cliff, destroying it. Robotnik sends out yet another robot, the Magbot, the Freedom Fighter Fighter, a valiant bot. Sonic takes it down with ease. Another robot is sent out, Captain Marbot, a caped hero. Sonic destroys it as well. A tired Robotnik sends out his last robot, a muscular caped rat called Mighty 'Bot. Like the others, Sonic destroys it. A top a huge pile of scrap robot parts, Sonic states he's going to smash Robotnik, only to slip on a puddle of oil on the ground. Robotnik uses this opportunity to run away. On the ground, Sonic reads a comic book, realizing that the bad guy always gets away at the end.<br />
<br />
In Knothole Village, the Freedom Fighters toast Sonic for a job well done.<br />
<br />
==A Little Sonic Goes a Long Way==<br />
Sonic is playing with a guitar on the top of a hill, then running down the hill, faster than the sound of the guitar. He, along with [[Tails]], joins the rest of the Freedom Fighters. They discuss Robotnik's ban on music. [[Rotor Walrus]] asks Sonic to play some more guitar, so he does so on top of a tree trunk for the group. The sound of the guitar flows all the way to Robotropolis, right into the ear of Robotnik. The sound causes him to yelp in pain as [[Snively]] arrives, announcing he's made a discovery, bringing in a device. Rather than listen to Snively, Robotnik grabs him and suspends him out of his window, angry at the illegal music. Then, while still being suspended out the window, Snively shows his device: a device that reduces the size of things, but it only lasts for one hour. Ignoring the warning, Robotnik, still holding onto Snively, walks away to create his next plan. He walks over to the Freedom Fighter finder (a large screen). While planning, Snively starts humming. Robotnik hears this and starts chasing him, threatening to use the device on him.<br />
<br />
Later that day, Sonic shows the other Freedom Fighters where he found his guitar: at the run-down Mobius concert hall. The group runs toward the hall to make a quick grab of instruments before they are caught. They enter the hall, only to find that it has been trashed, the beautiful facade has been ruined and many things are broken. Suddenly, the group is engulfed in a large electrical field. Robotnik appears from the shadows, as the group shrinks in front of his eyes. Now shrunk, Robotnik takes his roboticizing vehicle and tries to suck them in. The group holds onto a carpet for their lives, except for Sonic, for whom the rest of the group tell to run away. Rather than focusing on the group, Robotnik turns his machine on Sonic, who ends up running into a cardboard box. He does a spindash and carves a hole in the box. The vacuum of the roboticizer sucks out the contents of the box, concert programs, that clog the machine. The Freedom Fighters take this opportunity to run away and hide further in the hall. <br />
<br />
The Freedom Fighters hide in the seats in the hall, as Sally has difficulty finding Sonic, who is in the aisle, taunting Robotnik. Sonic starts running up the aisle, with Robotnik in pursuit, easily staying ahead of the vacuum. He jumps on the stage, causing Robotnik to lose sight of him. He crashes into the stage with the vehicle, in a mess of instruments and machinery. Although Sonic reacts in triumph, Robotnik has another trick up his sleeve, bringing out a portable roboticizer. He takes Sonic by surprise and sucks him up with it successfully. He goes to activate it, only to have it shot out of his hand. He looks around in surprise, finding the other Freedom Fighters using a string bass as a crossbow. While avoiding the attacks, he ends up falling over and landing on his head. He gets up and stomps toward the group, only to realize the hour-long shrink effect has ended, with the group turning back to normal. They look over at the roboticizer, where Sonic is still trapped, only to watch as Sonic explodes out of it from growing. <br />
<br />
Now back to normal size and outnumbering Robotnik, the Freedom Fighters tell Robotnik to leave the hall. Instead, he presses a button his wrist that alerts his badniks to surround the building. As Robotnik laughs, Sonic appears with his guitar, freaking him out. The rest of the group take up different instruments and start playing, making Robotnik go nuts and run out of the hall. As he runs out, Sonic realizes that the Badniks will still surround the building. Meanwhile, Rotor finds the shrinking device Robotnik used earlier, giving Sonic a plan.<br />
<br />
Later in Robotropolis, Robotnik yells at Snively, ordering him to get rid of his office full of miniaturized badniks. <br />
<br />
==Background Information==<br />
*This is the first issue of the series to not have a featurette. <br />
*This issue uses Sally's original pink style.<br />
*Numerous comic book characters and situations are alluded to in this issue, including Captain America (cover), Wolverine (cover), Ghost Rider (cover), Spiderman (cover), Batman and the Bat-Signal (pages 3 and 4, part 1 of 'Bots All Folks!), Spawn (page 3, part 2 of 'Bots All Folks!) and Mighty Mouse (page 5, part 2 of 'Bots All Folks!).<br />
*One of the notes in the Sonic Grams segment mistakenly mentions that [[Sonic Spinball]] was released on [[Sega CD]]. <br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 6''' is the sixth issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]]. It was released in January 1994. <br />
<br />
This comic features two stories: The Spin Doctor, and Sonic's Christmas Carol. It also features one featurettes: Here Comes the Bribe!. It is the first comic in the series to feature a direct tie-in to a video game release, namely [[Sonic Spinball]]. <br />
<br />
==The Spin Doctor==<br />
[[Sonic the Hedgehog]] leads on the [[Freedom Fighters]] to a surprise attack on [[Dr. Robotnik]]'s factory in [[Robotropolis]]. Upon arrival, they notice the factory boarded up and a note on the door stating that Robotnik has moved his operations to Mount Mobius, an active volcano. Sonic rushes off to the volcano, solo, despite objections from the other Freedom Fighters.<br />
<br />
Sonic later arrives at Mount Mobius, a large active volcano with Robotnik's likeliness on it. He leans on a pair of rails leading into the volcano, standing infront of a [[Sonic the Hedgehog 1 (Archie)|pinball flipper]]. Robotnik, from inside the volcano, presses a button in his lair, activating the flipper and sending Sonic careening into lava. He jumps over the lava continuously onto the pinball rails, using them as a track for his legs. He runs into the volcano. Sonic first enters into the [[Toxic Caves]], meeting with a [[Rexxon]]. Rexxon picks Sonic up and takes him to [[Scorpius]]. Sonic enters into a [[spindash]] and rebounds off the two, destroying them both. Robotnik reacts in anger as he watches Sonic continue through the volcano, but thinks he won't be able to go through the next level. Sonic, meanwhile, boards a freight car and heads to the [[Lava Powerhouse]]. <br />
<br />
While on the mine cart, Sonic encounters 4 [[Ferron]]s. Despite the overwhelming number, Sonic destroys them with ease and boasts at Robotnik through his monitor. Getting off the mine cart, Sonic hears many animal calls, only to be launched into a tube toward [[The Machine]]. Sonic arrives in The Machine, witnessing a ton of animals trapped in the [[Veg-O-Machine]], a roboticizer. They warn Sonic to look behind him just as a bunch of pitcher plants try to eat him. He runs off toward a door leading to Robotnik, only to find it's a trap. A spring launches him out the top of the volcano. [[Tails]] grabs him in mid-air, while Sonic says he will return to destroy the base.<br />
<br />
==Here Comes the Bribe==<br />
Sonic is reading some fan-mail from a mailbox. The first letter he opens up has a reader, Brandon, asking for [[Antoine D'Coolette|Antoine]] to appear more often. Sonic reacts in shock and anger as he keeps reading, with the writer stating that Antoine is the noblest Freedom Fighter, is brave, loyal, and [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Archie Mini-Series)|has helped saved Sonic before]]. The writer goes so far to saying that the comic should be called 'Antoine'. Sonic marches off in anger to Antoine's room, finding Antoine writing a letter to Brandon thanking him for writing the letter he so asked and is enclosing a check.<br />
<br />
==Sonic's Christmas Carol== <br />
Robotnik Scrooge is talking to [[Rotor Walrus]], asking him if he was saying he was a penny pincher. Rotor states he was simply asking when he will have the roof fixed, as the room is full of snow. Robotnik yells at Rotor, saying he'll spend his money when he feels like it. Rotor then asks if he can have the next day off, which Robotnik declines, as his factory must run everyday. Rotor promises to make up the time, which makes Robotnik change Rotor's lunch time from 5 minutes to 1 minute for 10 years. He chases Rotor out of the factory as he heads home.<br />
<br />
That night, Robotnik is sitting in his mansion, watching television and eating petroleum pudding. Suddenly, the image of burning rubbish on his television changes to an image of the ghost of [[Snively|Jacob Snarley]]. Robotnik tries to change the channel to no avail. Snarley warns Robotnik that he needs to change his ways or become like him. Robotnik ignores him, and kicks the television, damaging it and making Snarley disappear.<br />
<br />
Later that night, at midnight, Robotnik is attempting to sleep, hiding under the covers in fear. He hears a noise and peeks out of the covers, watching as Sonic arrives infront of the bed on a skateboard as the Spirit of Christmas Past. He grabs Robotnik, despite his objections, and travels to the past where a young Robotnik is enjoying setting up the house for Christmas with Sonic under the watch of [[Uncle Chuck]]. Robotnik watches as his younger self, however, grabs Uncle Chuck's tractor and heads to ram the Christmas tree and put the blame on Sonic. The young Sonic digs a trench around the tree to protect it, to the anger of old Robotnik. He runs forth to stop the young Sonic, only to trip and land his face in a bowl of Christmas mush.<br />
<br />
He looks up to see he is now in [[Knothole Village]], the home of Rotor. Sonic has now been replaced with another Sonic wearing a present, proclaiming himself as the Spirit of Christmas Present. Tails arrives with a large package, which Robotnik instantly notices is a bomb he sent out. They decide to open it, Robotnik watching in glee, only to have Sonic arrive and take the package, wanting to return it to the sender in case it was a gift from Robotnik. As Sonic writes 'Return to Sender' on the package, Robotnik attempts to stop him, as the Spirit of Christmas Present holds him back, saying he can't do anything. Now wanting to go back to his house, he finds himself in the middle of a wasteland: the future.<br />
<br />
An old man walks up to Robotnik. He laughs at the old man, only to find out that it is him by a yellow caped Sonic, the Spirit of Christmas Future. The Spirit tells him that Robotnik has turned into broken man bent on greed and evil in the future. The Freedom Fighters, all old and worn out, walk by. The Spirit mentions that with all the years of fighting, they have grown tired. He concludes that, even with all the power, Robotnik will have nothing to rule over in the future and that he must end his evil ways. Before he can decide, he looks over to see a large mecha capture the old Freedom Fighters with the old Robotnik celebrating with glee. Robotnik changes his mind, just as an old Sonic arrives, but before he can enter into a spindash to stop him, he trips. A mailman then arrives, giving Robotnik the package that Sonic had sent for return in the present, sent via fourth class, the slowest mail possible. Present Robotnik recognizes the present and runs to stop the old Robotnik, but is too late: the package explodes.<br />
<br />
In Knothole Village, Sonic is woken up by Rotor, having dreamt the whole thing. Rotor tells him he has slept through most of Christmas, which perks Sonic up, realizing they are on the last page of the comic. He gets out of bed, just in time to wish the reader a Merry Christmas, acting as Santa in a shoe-shaped sleigh with the Freedom Fighters singing Christmas carols and Robotnik stuck in the snow after the explosion. <br />
<br />
==Background Information==<br />

*This is the first issue in the comic series to use Rotor's name correctly, rather than using Boomer.<br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 3''' is the third issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]]. It was released in October 1993. <br />
<br />
This comic features two stories: The Bomb Bugs Me! and Rabbot Deployment. It also features four featurettes: Tails' Fairy Tales, Double Speak, Paper Trail and Robotnik Rules.<br />
<br />
==The Bomb Bugs Me!==<br />
[[Rotor Walrus]] and [[Sally Acorn]] are watching the [[Great Forest]] Monitor, which is tracking [[Sonic]]. He arrives at their location, faster than what the camera can show on the monitor, sending Rotor into a fit of confusion. Sonic then tells the two that [[Dr. Robotnik]] got "The Bomb". <br />
<br />
He recalls back to when he was in [[Robotropolis]] taking out some [[Swatbot]]s, only to come upon Robotnik talking to [[Crabmeat]] about a bomb he got that could kill everybody. Sally thinks over the situation, and the consequences a large bomb could have, being able to destroy the whole forest. Sonic, meanwhile, thinks that Robotnik would use the bomb to end all life on the planet for his own good. Sally is against the idea of bombs on [[Mobius]], which gives Sonic an idea.<br />
<br />
Back in Robotropolis, Robotnik is alerted to a protest by a Swatbot (whom he thought was referring to Protestants). He looks out the window to see Sally, Rotor and Sonic holding up signs beside a building, protesting against bombs. Robotnik, in his anger, orders a full-out assault on the trio, exiting the building with a whole army of Swatbots. They run at them, only to slam into the wall: they were a projection by Sally from a distance away with a projector. With Robotnik and the Swatbots out of commission, the trio head off to take care of the bomb.<br />
<br />
Inside Robotnik's base, Sally and Sonic are confronted by Rotor, who is in a Robotnik costume. Sonic looks into the main room, where Crabmeat is chasing around a fly. Sonic tells Rotor to call to him, but he does so in [[Wikipedia:James Cagney|James Cagney's]] voice. Despite his mistake, he walks into the room with no problem and orders Crabmeat to bring him the bomb, albeit politely. He does so, but questions why he was told in such a polite way. A few moments later, Crabmeat tells Rotor to come into a room, but Sonic is suspicious. Nonetheless, Rotor enters and a fight occurs. He comes out, without his disguise and with the bomb, having dealt with Crabmeat and the others in the room, much to Sally's approval. <br />
<br />
Suddenly, Robotnik arrives in the room with a broken [[Caterkiller]], proclaiming that Rotor isn't who he appears to be. Sally and Sonic look around in confusion as the Robotnik takes off a mask, revealing that he's Rotor. The other Rotor takes off a mask, revealing that he is actually Robotnik. Each of them take off even more masks, appearing to be the other. Sally and Sonic watch in confusion and annoyance as they continue to take off even more masks. Sonic, now fed up, runs around the two, sending them into a twirl to get rid of all their disguises, revealing the true Robotnik and Rotor. With Robotnik in a daze, they take the bomb and head back to [[Knothole Village]].<br />
<br />
In Knothole, the bomb is on a table. The trio decide to open it, despite not knowing how dangerous it is. Sonic opens it slowly, revealing a metal cannister. Sally takes it out, revealing that it's a pesticide bomb to get rid of bugs. Back in Robotnik's base, Crabmeat opens a pantry which is full of flying ants. Without his bug bomb, Robotnik responds "I hate that hedgehog!".<br />
<br />
==Tails' Fairy Tales==<br />
Sonic, who is resting on a tree, is approached by [[Tails]]. He tells Sonic that he read the story [[Wikipedia:The Tortoise and the Hare|The Tortise and the Hare]], which Sonic thinks is an "old fossil". Tails tries to convince him that it's a good book, but Sonic won't believe him, thinking that a turtle could never beat a fast animal like a rabbit. Suddenly, a turtle passes by quickly on a rocket-powered skateboard. Sonic changes his mind, a bit.<br />
<br />
==Double Speak==<br />
Sonic is on the phone, arguing to the person on the other side of the line. He then zooms off to another phone, retorting. He runs back to the phone and argues again. He runs to the other phone; running so fast that he can argue with himself through the phones.<br />
<br />
==Paper Trail==<br />
Princess Sally is addressing everybody in Knothole Village in anger, proclaiming that the perpetrators of a certain crime must be punished and that her word is law, putting on a crown and taking out a scepter. She takes Antoine by the top of his shirt and drags him off to begin an investigation.<br />
<br />
With Sally away, Tails responds in fear in that he has never seen Sally so angry. Sonic, who is sweating, reads the newspaper, which is talking about a debacle of Sally turning blonde, proclaiming that he thought she could take the joke. Rotor, meanwhile, runs off to quickly wash the printer ink that is on his hands.<br />
<br />
==Rabbot Deployment==<br />
Sonic arrives in Knothole Village, having been summoned by Sally. Rotor has developed some photos, although he got double prints. They look at the photos, which are reconnaissance photos showing Robotnik making progress into the southern sector of Mobius. With no delay, Sonic grabs Rotor and the two run out of Knothole to the surface of the Great Forest. Sonic, with Rotor (complete with helmet, rollerskates and knee/arm pads, tied to Sonic via a rope), enter the Danger Zone. They hide behind a bush, watching as a rabbit picking carrots is grabbed by two Swatbots. They watch as the Swatbots lead the rabbit to a portable [[roboticizer]].<br />
<br />
Sonic goes to save the rabbit, but is held back by the rope that is still attached to him and Rotor. Meanwhile, the Swatbots have thrown the rabbit into the roboticizer successfully. Sonic, in anger, enters into a horizontal spindash and breaks free of the rope. He then cuts the Swatbots in half and breaks into the inside of the roboticizer. He looks on as he sees the rabbit stuck in the machine, trying to get out, yelling at Sonic to turn it off. He runs over to a switch and turns the machine off, leaving the rabbit woozy. <br />
<br />
Rotor and Sonic pull the rabbit out, only to realize that she has been partially roboticized from the waist down and her left arm. Sonic recommends taking her to Knothole to recover, but Rotor is worried that Robotnik could track her due to the partial roboticization. Nonetheless, Sonic convinces him to go, as he carries Rotor along, who is carrying the rabbit himself.<br />
<br />
In Knothole, Sally is sitting on her throne as Sonic and Rotor arrive with the rabbit in a sweat. The rabbit suddenly wakes up and hops out of Rotor's arms, introducing herself as [[Bunnie Rabbot|Bunnie]]. Sally asks what she can do, and, with her robotic arm, she picks up the throne with Sally still on it. Using her legs, she also demonstrates her karate moves, which Sonic barely avoids. Bunnie looks at Sonic, proclaiming that he's cute and fast, asking for his name. Rather than answering, he asks that Sally be put down first. She apologizes, dropping the throne with a bang. To be polite, Bunnie bows down to Sally, proclaiming that she has a dream to be a hairdresser. Sally stands up, now with a bad hairdo, proclaiming that they need one, and asking her to join the [[Freedom Fighters]]. Suddenly, [[Antoine D'Coolette]] runs in mentioning of a large object. As he mentions it, the ground rumbles as a large [[Burrobot]] arrives at the secret entrance to the village. Sonic goes out to take care of it, along with Bunnie who coins her new last name 'Rabbot'.<br />
<br />
Sonic pops out of the tree stub entrance to Knothole, but is pulled back in by Bunnie just as the Burrobot rolls over it. As it passes by, they pop back up and chase after it, Bunnie being able to keep up with Sonic's super speed. Sonic pulls up beside the Burrobot and creates a large tornado as Bunnie watches on, only to see the bot turn around and hit Sonic with a laser blast from its hand. It goes to run over Sonic, but is turned upside-down by Bunnie and put into the ground. Sonic looks on in surprise, recovering from the blast. He decides to finish off the bot himself by spinning around it, opening and collapsing the ground onto it.<br />
<br />
The two later return to Knothole, with Bunnie receiving an official welcome as the newest Freedom Fighter.<br />
<br />
==Robotnik's Rules==<br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 1''' is the first issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]]. It was released in July 1993 and follows the [[SatAM]] story (freeing [[Mobius]] from [[Dr. Robotnik]]'s control), but had a less serious style like that from The [[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]. The art in this issue is based off of early concepts for SatAM, including the use of pink [[Sally Acorn]], which remained until issue 16.<br />
<br />
This comic features five stories: Meet Me at the Corner of Hedgehog & Vine, You Bet my Life!, I'd Like to Thank..., Keep Looking Up!, and Fast Food.<br />
<br />
==Meet Me at the Corner of Hedgehog & Vine==<br />
Dr. Robotnik, while destroying a pinata shaped like [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], is approached by one of his [[Swatbot]]s who has developed a mechanical pitcher plant it calls Krudzu. Meanwhile, in [[Knothole Village]], [[Antoine D'Coolette]] leaves the village to pick flowers for [[Sally Acorn]] to impress her, only to be caught by the Krudzu that a [[burrobot]] set up in the forest. Sally and Sonic run to the surface to see Antoine tied up by the plant. Sonic grabs him, while still tied up by the plant and returns him to Knothole as Krudzu continues to grow in the forest.<br />
<br />
Sonic and Sally send Antoine to [[Rotor Walrus|Boomer]][sic] to help release him from the Krudzu. Boomer brings out a chainsaw, which causes Antoine to faint, but Boomer only brought it out to trim the table that Antoine is on. With him unconscious, Boomer starts ripping the plant off Antoine and throws it in a bucket. [[Tails]], who is walking by, notices the bucket full of Krudzu and waters it, freaking out the others.<br />
<br />
Back in [[Robotropolis]], Robotnik watches as the Krudzu take over the Great Forest, ordering his [[buzzbomber]]s to head for it for when the Freedom Fighters leave their secret base. In Knothole, the Freedom Fighters watch as the watered Krudzu suddenly short-circuits. This gives Sonic an idea to water the forest, but his plan is stopped by Sally and Tails as they tell him that a storm is on the way. <br />
<br />
Just as expected, a storm rolls over the forest, pouring rain and short-circuiting all the Krudzu. Robotnik, in his anger, throws the burrobot from earlier into his robot disposal.<br />
<br />
==You Bet My Life!==<br />
The Freedom Fighters are having an issue, and only Sonic seems to know how to fix it: how to correctly fold a map of [[Mobius]]. While folding it up, Boomer tells Sonic they were locating where Dr. Robotnik was performing a big speech in the [[Casino Night Zone]]. Sonic speeds out of Knothole Village to the Zone to see what's up. Arriving at the Zone, he enters a casino called Renobotnik, which is full of gambling [[Badnik]]s. He finds the theater, where Robotnik will be showing off his new invention, and goes to a Swatbot in a suit for a seat, but is denied until he receives a tip. Robotnik, meanwhile, is in the backstage preparing for his speech. He looks out to see Sonic entering the theater.<br />
<br />
Rather than giving the Swatbot a tip, Sonic runs past him and gets a seat in the front row at center. Robotnik comes out, showing his newest Badnik, the [[Orbinaut]]. He tests it out by having it throw one of its spike balls at Sonic, who successfully hits him. Dazed and confused, Robotnik has Sonic put in a transparent ball and placed in a large pinball machine. Robotnik plays around with the Sonic pinball machine, having him get shocked and hit by many bumpers. <br />
<br />
Sonic's ball exits the machine, but as Robotnik prepares to put him back in, a Swatbot arrives alerting him of somebody winning fifty cents in the casino. Robotnik walks away in anger to see the winner, giving Sonic a chance to escape. Using his quills, he cuts through the ball, but doesn't escape. Robotnik returns with a hammer, after having dealt with the winner, and reinserts Sonic into the pinball machine. He pulls back on the plunger, but the force of the return hitting the cracked ball destroys it, freeing Sonic. Now free, he enters a spindash and destroys the machine. The orbinaut goes to attack him, but Sonic deflects the spike balls back at Robotnik and the Swatbot. He dashes out of the casino, having placed a bomb, and watches from a distance as the building is destroyed, throwing Robotnik and the unprotected orbinaut high into the air. <br />
<br />
Sonic returns to Knothole Village only to find out he has another problem to solve: the case of the child-proof cap. <br />
<br />
==I'd Like to Thank...==<br />
<br />
Boomer and Sally are giving out the first annual 'Acorn Awards'. The first award is for 'Outstanding Resourcefulness Against Robotnik's Swatbots'. Sonic wins, taking the award from Boomer by running by him at quick speed, sending him into a twirl. The second award is for [[Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Archie Mini-Series)|'Best Performance Disguised as a Robot']], with Sonic taking the award as well, sending Sally into a twirl. The last award, 'Best All Around Freedom Fighter', is also awarded to Sonic, who dashes past the stage again, sending both Boomer and Sally into a twirl. Sonic literally ran away with all the awards.<br />
<br />
==Keep Looking Up!==<br />
<br />
Sonic reads a letter from a fan, asking at what speed Sonic's feet disappear and turn into 'blurry, spinning wheels'. To answer the question, Sonic takes off at Ultra Sonic speed, but his feet remain visible. He moves to Super Sonic speed, but his feet are still visible. He jumps to Trans-Sonic Speed, which make his feet blurry. Without focusing on the road, he slams into a low tree branch and falls to a stop.<br />
<br />
==Fast Food==<br />
<br />
Sonic teaches the reader how to make his Chili Dog A La Sonic, only to have Sally enter the kitchen, take a coconut cream pie out of the fridge and throw it at Sonic's face.<br />
<br />
==Background Information==<br />
*This issue mistakenly refers to [[Rotor Walrus]] as Boomer.<br />
*A two-page special features four Sonic-themed bumper stickers.<br />
*You Bet My Life! is heavily based off of the [[Casino Night Zone]] in [[Sonic 2]], both of which are mentioned by Sonic.<br />
*The recipe shown in Fast Food is an actual chili dog recipe.<br />

'''Sonic the Hedgehog 196''' is the 196th issue of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie)|Sonic the Hedgehog comic series]], and the final part of the "Invasion from Moebius" story. It was released January 2009.<br />
<br />
It contains only one story: Hedgehog Havoc, Pt. 2<br />
<br />
=Hedgehog Havoc, Pt. 2=<br />
<br />
Continuing from the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 195 (Archie)|last issue]], The Freedom Fighters and the Suppression Squad are seen in the Brain Trust Lab at Freedom HQ arguing over leaving [[Sonic]] and [[Amy]] (among others) stranded on Moebius with the power-crazed Scourge. Confident that the "Heroes" have been able to stomp Scourge (being unaware of the Anarchy Beryl in the throne), Miles convinces Princess Alicia to venture back to their home with the [[Freedom Fighters]]. However, they are shocked to find that King Scourge has beaten down not only Sonic, but also [[Silver]], [[Shadow]], Amy, [[Metal Sonic]], Rob O'The Hedge and Amy's counterpart Rosy.<br />
<br />
Not surprisingly, Scourge is happy to see the new arrivials, if only to "soften his knuckles" on them. Before they have time to react, he quickly strikes at [[Bunnie Rabbot|Bunnie]], and then pins [[Antoine]] to the floor. When [[Tails]] attempts to stop him, Scourge simply swats him away like a fly, calling him a "mutant brat". He then turns his attention on [[Sally]], lifting her up, then proceeding to throw her across the room, taunting her while doing so. He gives her counterpart a similar treatment, tossing her into the throne. Boomer and Patch then attempt to bring him down, buy to no avail. Scourge effortlessly deflects Boomer's sonic blasts, whilst being unharmed by Patch's sword (the sword breaking to pieces, in fact). Threatening to blind Patch, he tosses him into Boomer, then turns to Miles, who cowers in fear, having organized the Suppression Squad's mutiny.<br />
<br />
Before Scourge is capable of harming Miles, Silver uses his psychokinetic abilities to hold Scourge, who easily breaks out of the psychic grip. At that moment, Sonic is contemplating his own weaknesses when in Super form, only to be interrupted by Metal Sonic, who has changed priorities to Sonic due to a success rate of zero against Scourge in his Super form. Before the battle drags on, Shadow breaks up the fight, and uses Chaos Control to teleport himself and Metal Sonic back to Mobius.<br />
<br />
Scourge, however, has been dealing with Rosy, who is angry that Scourge "isn't squishy anymore". Fed up with her deranged interferance, he throws her into a wall. Rob O'The Hedge takes this oppertunity to use a rope trap arrow to pin Rosy to the wall, to protect his cousin's counterpart. Meanwhile, Sonic is interrogating Miles as to where he can find more Anarchy Beryl, only to learn it is far from the castle. Miles suggests luring Scourge back to Mobius and using the Chaos Emeralds, but as most of them are in the Special Zone, and the other two out of their reach, they cannot.<br />
<br />
Sally forms a plan to stop Scourge. Having Silver hold him in place and Bunnie and Boomer force him down with their blasters, the whole gang piles on him to hold him down until he powers down. But Scourge proves too powerful for them to keep down. Sonic spindashes at Scourge repeatedly, until the latter drags him out into the rain, throwing him to the ground. Scourge reveals he now plans to spindash both Moebius and Mobius in half, and continue stomping planets until he finds one that would give him the respect he "deserves". In the middle of his monologue, Sonic runs off into the woods, again pondering his Super form's weaknesses. He realizes that he feels great when he goes super, even after powering down.<br />
<br />
This makes him realize that Scourge, being his opposite, would be drained if he were to power down. Tricking Scourge into powering down by claiming he couldn't beat Sonic in his normal form, he beats Scourge at his own game, explaining that, while the source of power is different, the Super forms are the same, though Scourge's may last a little longer. The difference is that Sonic powers down with a small boost, and Scourge with a debilitating crash. Scourge attempts to stand back up to Sonic, saying he was "cheated", recalling his conquering of Moebius, and calling Sonic "nothing".<br />
<br />
Sonic responds by angrily shattering Scourge's crown. He tells Scourge he is nothing but a bully that takes the easy way to the quick reward. He goes on to comment on how he helps others to make something bigger and better than just mean. The next day, Boomer can be seen disconneting their stolen globe posts, so that the Freedom Fighters and Buns can return them to their rightful owner, Dr. Kintobor. As they are leaving, Miles and Alicia are left to dicuss their next course of action, including and unspoken agreement that Miles will soon be king.<br />
<br />
At Dr. Kintobor's Tower, Sonic and Silver are working out the problem they had earlier. Silver agrees that Sonic is not the [[Espio|traitor]] that he was looking for, and says he will be back when he finds out who it is. Inside the tower, Dr. Kintobor thanks Sonic for his help. Sally says that it's all wrapped up, as she and Sonic are the last two to go home. Sonic says that isn't quite the case, as he plans to go to the Parallel Zone, not only to lock up Scourge, but also to get some answers, setting up for the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 197 (Archie)|next issue]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* Recently, the backstory of [[Sonic the Hedgehog 201 (Archie)|Issue 201]] (''Devotion'') suggest that Espio may be the aforementioned traitor. Whether or not he actually has turned on the Freedom Fighters has yet to be revealed.<br />
* The issue's title is a throwback to [[Sonic the Hedgehog 161 (Archie)|Issue 161]], which was titled "Sonic Goes Super!". However, Scourge had gone super in the previous issue.<br />
* This issue has no asterisks referencing a previous issue.<br />

<br />
Not surprisingly, Scourge is happy to see the new arrivials, if only to "soften his knuckles" on them. Before they have time to react, he quickly strikes at [[Bunnie Rabbot|Bunnie]], and then pins [[Antoine]] to the floor. When [[Tails]] attempts to stop him, Scourge simply swats him away like a fly, calling him a "mutant brat". He then turns his attention on [[Sally]], lifting her up, then proceeding to throw her across the room, taunting her while doing so. He gives her counterpart a similar treatment, tossing her into the throne. Boomer and Patch then attempt to bring him down, buy to no avail. Scourge effortlessly deflects Boomer's sonic blasts, whilst being unharmed by Patch's sword (the sword breaking to pieces, in fact). Threatening to blind Patch, he tosses him into Boomer, then turns to Miles, who cowers in fear, having organized the Suppression Squad's mutiny.<br />
<br />
Before Scourge is capable of harming Miles, Silver uses his psychokinetic abilities to hold Scourge, who easily breaks out of the psychic grip. At that moment, Sonic is contemplating his own weaknesses when in Super form, only to be interrupted by Metal Sonic, who has changed priorities to Sonic due to a success rate of zero against Scourge in his Super form. Before the battle drags on, Shadow breaks up the fight, and uses Chaos Control to teleport himself and Metal Sonic back to Mobius.<br />
<br />
Scourge, however, has been dealing with Rosy, who is angry that Scourge "isn't squishy anymore". Fed up with her deranged interferance, he throws her into a wall. Rob O'The Hedge takes this oppertunity to use a rope trap arrow to pin Rosy to the wall, to protect his cousin's counterpart. Meanwhile, Sonic is interrogating Miles as to where he can find more Anarchy Beryl, only to learn it is far from the castle. Miles suggests luring Scourge back to Mobius and using the Chaos Emeralds, but as most of them are in the Special Zone, and the other two out of their reach, they cannot.<br />
<br />
Sally forms a plan to stop Scourge. Having Silver hold him in place and Bunnie and Boomer force him down with their blasters, the whole gang piles on him to hold him down until he powers down. But Scourge proves too powerful for them to keep down. Sonic spindashes at Scourge repeatedly, until the latter drags him out into the rain, throwing him to the ground. Scourge reveals he now plans to spindash both Moebius and Mobius in half, and continue stomping planets until he finds one that would give him the respect he "deserves". In the middle of his monologue, Sonic runs off into the woods, again pondering his Super form's weaknesses. He realizes that he feels great when he goes super, even after powering down.<br />
<br />
This makes him realize that Scourge, being his opposite, would be drained if he were to power down. Tricking Scourge into powering down by claiming he couldn't beat Sonic in his normal form, he beats Scourge at his own game, explaining that, while the source of power is different, the Super forms are the same, though Scourge's may last a little longer. The difference is that Sonic powers down with a small boost, and Scourge with a debilitating crash. Scourge attempts to stand back up to Sonic, saying he was "cheated", recalling his conquering of Moebius, and calling Sonic "nothing".<br />
<br />
Sonic responds by angrily shattering Scourge's crown. He tells Scourge he is nothing but a bully that takes the easy way to the quick reward. He goes on to comment on how he helps others to make something bigger and better than just mean. The next day, Boomer can be seen disconneting their stolen globe posts, so that the Freedom Fighters and Buns can return them to their rightful owner, Dr. Kintobor. As they are leaving, Miles and Alicia are left to dicuss their next course of action, including and unspoken agreement that Miles will soon be king.<br />
<br />
At Dr. Kintobor's Tower, Sonic and Silver are working out the problem they had earlier. Silver agrees that Sonic is not the [[Espio|traitor]] that he was looking for, and says he will be back when he finds out who it is. Inside the tower, Dr. Kintobor thanks Sonic for his help. Sally says that it's all wrapped up, as she and Sonic are the last two to go home. Sonic says that isn't quite the case, as he plans to go to the Parallel Zone, not only to lock up Scourge, but also to get some answers, setting up for the [[Sonic the Hedgehog 197 (Archie)|next issue]].<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* Recently, the backstory of Issue 201 (''Devotion'') suggest that Espio may be the aforementioned traitor. Whether or not he actually has turned on the Freedom Fighters has yet to be revealed.<br />
* The issue's title is a throw back to Issue 161, which was titled "Sonic Goes Super!". However, Scourge had gone super in the previous issue.<br />
* This issue has no asterisks referencing a previous issue.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''Neuro Immunodeficiency Syndrome''', also known by the acronym '''N.I.D.S.''', is a disease originating in the [[:Category:Games|Sonic games continuity]]. It is best known for afflicting [[Maria Robotnik]], as recounted in ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]''.<br />
<br />
N.I.D.S. is an incurable and inevitably fatal disease. [[Gerald Robotnik]], on being ordered by the [[United Federation]] government to research clinical immortality under [[Project Shadow]], realised that his attachment to the Project on the [[Space Colony ARK]] could potentially yield a cure for the disease as a by-product, and thereby save his grand-daughter. Of the many agendas represented in the work of the Project, Gerald's motives to find a cure for N.I.D.S. were perhaps the purest; but all for naught, when [[G.U.N.]] stormed the facility and violently shut the research down, killing Maria in the process.<br />
<br />
It is unknown if [[Shadow the Hedgehog]] actually ''does'' harbour the cure for N.I.D.S. or not; but with Maria fifty years dead, the point is somewhat moot.<br />
<br />
On a side note, N.I.D.S. is obviously the Sonic-universe version of Auto-Immunodeficiency Syndrome, commenlly known by its abbriviation, AIDS.<br />
<br />
===Other continuities===<br />
<br />
In the [[Archie|Archie ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' comics]], Buns Rabbot - an alternate reality version of [[Bunnie Rabbot]] - suffers from the disease. Dr. Ivo Kintobor produced a special medical suit, the Omega Care Unit, that stops the disease from progressing, but requires the sufferer to remain quarantined inside.<br />

<hr />
<div><forumuser name="Dan Genesis" /><br />
'''Dan Genesis''' (real name Dan Heiney, commonly referred to as simply "Dan") is among the most avid of Sonic fans, and has since '98 has done his best to collect every Sonic game and issue of Sonic the Hedgehog Archie comics. Dan has spent the past 10 years studying the mechanics of games of various series, and has studied the layouts of levels to effectively describe the vibrant and varied environments.<br />
<br />
Dan was the winner of the community's [[Blue Sphere]] tournament at level 3001 with a 300 perfect streak.<br />
<br />
== Personality(ies) & Alieses ==<br />
Dan has no one set personality, but he does show several traits that have been clumped under various personas. The major ones are listed below<br />
<br />
=== Dan Genesis ===<br />
Of course, there is his dominant personality, which is at core, analytical. Dan also considers anyone who hates literature a foe, and such people must learn to watch their backs.<br />
<br />
=== Chaos Von Gin ===<br />
The calculating, neutralistic side of Dan's character, '''Chaos Von Gin''' reflects an open-mindedness that often leaves both sides of a story guilty of something. This personality comes forth mostly in touchy subjects like religion.<br />
<br />
=== Zippy Meister ===<br />
The free-willed, free-flowing side to Dan, '''Zippy''' is at times like a cross between classics like Paul McCartney and Keith Richards and hard-hitting brutality like Dave Mustain and Skwisgaar Skwigelf. This personality is usually pretty laid back, but when push comes to shove, he doesn't like losing.<br />
<br />
=== Hack ===<br />
An older side to Dan, '''Hack''' is a gamer from the inside out. If games were capable of being sustinance, Hack would be one fat bastard.<br />
<br />
=== Pengiuno ===<br />
Probably the strangest side to Dan, '''Penguino''' is obsessed with penguins to the point of thinking he ''is'' one.<br />
<br />
=== General Jorgen Mörder ===<br />
Probably Dan's most violent side, '''Jorgen Mörder''' is prone to fits of gunning people down, hanging people upside-down, and just plain old punching them for candy. Hell, his last name even means 'Murderer'!<br />
<br />
== Sonic Retro ==<br />
Dan's claim to fame on [[Sonic Retro]] is expansion and creation of various articles, usually in the form of describing the stage's appearance. Dan is also a self-proclaimed Music Guru, and has worked on several articles in the 'Music' section of the site.<br />
<br />
Joining in late March of 2008, Dan frequented the message boards throughout much of the year, making comments on several topics (though not always in a constructive manner). In late December, however, his visits hit rock bottom, rarely even checking the main page. With the end of the school year comming up, his visits are expected to be increasing in number.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
Dan is:<br />
*A Writer<br />
*A Guitarist<br />
*A Lyricist<br />
*A Linguist<br />
*An Artist<br />
*A (self-proclaimed) Music Guru<br />
*A Gamer<br />
*In desperate need of a spell checker<br />
Dan Can:<br />
*Rhyme<br />
*Sing death metal<br />
*write lyrics and novels<br />
*Draw landscapes<br />
*Kick Ass At video games<br />
*Repeatedly and consistently misspell 'referred' as 'refferred' without realizing it.<br />

== Quotes ==<br />
* CHEESE ME!<br />
* RISE MY PENGUIN ARMY!<br />
* ALL HAIL THE LORD AND MASTER, DAVE MUSTAINE!<br />
* Respect the penguins. Respect them all.<br />
* ''[after being asked what pet he would like]'': I want a penguin. That would be awesome. I would name him Penguino!<br />
* Jason, no birthday dance!<br />
* ''[In response to being called 'crazy' or 'insane']'': Of course. Otherwise I never would have made it through the sixth grade.<br />
* ''[In response to being told something he could care less about]'': And I care because......?<br />
* ''[From his talent show act at Kamp Koinonia]'': Well... I don't have a script... I forgot my lines... I have no idea what I'm going to do...<br />
* ''[From an FAQs video by Youtube User Guitarmasterx7]'' <br />
:GMX7: I wasn't wearing any pants when I came here... why the hell am I wearing pants?<br />
:Disembodied voice: *needless blathering*<br />
:GMX7: Wait, did you put me in pants? You don't just put someone in pants!<br />
* ''[From X-Gear based side-project novel]'': One of the most depressing things in the world is watching a bird have its wings clipped and it thrown in a cage, never again to soar with its commrades who care for it.<br />
* There are certain things you can't say in a forum. Claiming the admins to be ignorant fucks is one of those things.<br />
* Never listen to what the voices are telling you when you're half-asleep. It's never a good idea.<br />
* Never trust the Japanese to go easy on the fanservice. They will betray your trust every time. Especially with an anime that has anything to do with maids.<br />
<br />
== The Hit List ==<br />
Dan has recently added a hit list to his Forum Signature (inspired by [[Hez]]'s Hate List). This list comprises of people who paticularly piss him off, and people he would actually like to see dead (yes, they are that bad). The list is currently as follows:<br />

<forumuser name="Robjoe" /><br />
'''Robjoe''' is a member of the [[Sonic Retro]] forums. He is one of many sceners that currently lives in front of his computer. The only time he ever leaves is due to the point that his horrible parental units and scathingly horrible brother exist to ruin life for him.<br />
<br />
Robjoe has been a long time scener, but unfortunately, he has yet to receive any global recognition for his works. Robjoe was instrumental in creating the Water Guide for [[Sonic 3 & Knuckles]], in which ex-scener [[Katelynn]] wrote a much cleaner and more thorough guide on top of. He had worked with [[Super]] on a ''S3K'' palette guide, which held and explained all the palette locations within the ''S3K'' ROM, including rotating palettes as well as unused ones. However, the project was never finished and some of the work was incorrect. With the release of [[HivePal]], however, their research was rendered easier, but inherently null.<br />
<br />
Robjoe was one of the main layout constructors in the popular hack, [[Sonic Megamix]]. His layouts harkened much to the old Genesis layouts, balancing speed with solid platforming. A Primary concern, however, were the occasional odd tile and an enemy fetish. To fix and better some of Robjoe's worst works, scener [[NovaWizard]] was brought on the project. Together, Robjoe's layouts and Nova's layouts are balanced in Megamix, sharing about a 60:40 relationship. With Megamix's public announcement, It is confirmed that Robjoe is still with the project.<br />
<br />
Robjoe was the first runner-up in the Blue Sphere Tournament with 2022, coming in behind [[Dan Genesis]]' unbelievable perfect streak that got him to 3001.<br />
<br />
Robjoe is the current owner of the ''S3K'' ROM hack ''Sonic 3 & Knuckles Advanced'', which has been discontinued due to lack of interest. The hack boasted water in many new acts including Marble Garden and Sandopolis Act 2, as well as the rustic Death Egg.<br />
<br />
Lastly, [[Super]] and Robjoe were late to the party during the [[The Sonic 2 Beta Page]] MP3 stint, with their own series known as ''Super and Robjoe's Pointless Adventures''. With an initial flop in 'The Agony of Ojdon', the series drew to an early end with a cliffhanger episode 2, 'The Dying Episode'. The episodes were jampacked with old scene jokes, but seemed to be dragged down due to lack of originality. However, it did boast a suitable music that was pleasant to the ears. A Third episode was always planned, and the script written, but never produced.<br />
<br />
[[Super]] and Robjoe participated in a hack contest against each other to see who could create the best Sonic hack out of the two of them. Robjoe forfeited on Day 2.<br />
Robjoe is not currently working on anything. Lazy bastard.<br />

'''Dan Genesis''' (real name Dan Heiney, commonly referred to as simply "Dan") is among the most avid of Sonic fans, and has since '98 has done his best to collect every Sonic game and issue of Sonic the Hedgehog Archie comics. Dan has spent the past 10 years studying the mechanics of games of various series, and has studied the layouts of levels to effectively describe the vibrant and varied environments.<br />
<br />
Dan was the winner of the community's [[Blue Sphere]] tournament at level 3001 with a 300 perfect streak.<br />
<br />
== Personality(ies) & Alieses ==<br />
Dan has no one set personality, but he does show several traits that have been clumped under various personas. The major ones are listed below<br />
<br />
=== Dan Genesis ===<br />
Of course, there is his dominant personality, which is at core, analytical. Dan also considers anyone who hates literature a foe, and such people must learn to watch their backs.<br />
<br />
=== Chaos Von Gin ===<br />
The calculating, neutralistic side of Dan's character, '''Master Genesis''' reflects an open-mindedness that often leaves both sides of a story guilty of something. This personality comes forth mostly in touchy subjects like religion.<br />
<br />
=== Zippy Meister ===<br />
The free-willed, free-flowing side to Dan, '''Zippy''' is at times like a cross between classics like Paul McCartney and Keith Richards and hard-hitting brutality like Dave Mustain and Skwisgaar Skwigelf. This personality is usually pretty laid back, but when push comes to shove, he doesn't like losing.<br />
<br />
=== Hack ===<br />
An older side to Dan, '''Hack''' is a gamer from the inside out. If games were capable of being sustinance, Hack would be one fat bastard.<br />
<br />
=== Pengiuno ===<br />
Probably the strangest side to Dan, '''Penguino''' is obsessed with penguins to the point of thinking he ''is'' one.<br />
<br />
=== General Jorgen Mörder ===<br />
Probably Dan's most violent side, '''Jorgen Mörder''' is prone to fits of gunning people down, hanging people upside-down, and just plain old punching them for candy. Hell, his last name even means 'Murderer'!<br />
<br />
== Sonic Retro ==<br />
Dan's claim to fame on [[Sonic Retro]] is expansion and creation of various articles, usually in the form of describing the stage's appearance. Dan is also a self-proclaimed Music Guru, and has worked on several articles in the 'Music' section of the site.<br />
<br />
Joining in late March of 2008, Dan frequented the message boards throughout much of the year, making comments on several topics (though not always in a constructive manner). In late December, however, his visits hit rock bottom, rarely even checking the main page. With the end of the school year comming up, his visits are expected to be increasing in number.<br />

:''For the eponymous zone in [[Sonic Advance]], see [[Angel Island Zone (Sonic Advance)]]''<br />
<br />
'''Angel Island Zone''' is the first zone in ''[[Sonic 3]]''. When playing as [[Sonic]], a somewhat lengthy introduction is played in which Sonic and Tails discover the floating island and first run into [[Knuckles]]. An alternate version of the intro had Sonic surfing onto the island, which is a leftover from a beta version of Sonic 3. The surfing sprites can be viewed via debug mode. [[Nemesis]] created a savestate with a restored surfing intro sequence, which can be downloaded [http://sonicology.fateback.com/downloads/saves/index.html here]. At the end, Sonic and Tails are dropped into Hydrocity by [[Knuckles]] destroying the bridge. Knuckles simply jumps off the bridge in S3K.<br />
<br />
==Instruction Manual Description==<br />
Welcome to the Floating Island. Things will really heat up once Dr. Robotnik sets fire to this area of the island. Beware of the Flying Battery blimp.<br />
<br />
==Sonic Team Commentary (from ''[[Sonic Jam]]'' Strategy Guide)==<br />
{{quote|1=We started development on "3" with a story in mind, but it turned out we couldn't make it in time without problems. In the end, the game ended up being cut in half (laugh). This stage starts off with a certain impact, as the flame thrower machines set fire to the island and change the color considerably.|2=[[Sonic Team]], [[Takashi Iizuka]]}}<br />
<br />
== Glitches ==<br />
*It's possible to go into a Knuckles-only section of Act 2 when playing as Sonic by using [[debug mode]], then go up to Sonic's path after going through the long set of breakable walls. When you get to the boss, there will be two of them - one acting as Sonic's boss and one acting as Knuckles'. This can be used to give a 50000 point time bonus if you use one of the [[capsule]]s to trigger the end of level and reset the time to zero, then use the other to trigger another end of level.<br />
*When at the end of Act 2, after defeating [[Robotnik]], you can also hold left and repeatedly try to jump during the Knuckles cut-scene. If done correctly, you'll jump off the bridge as it collapses, allowing you to avoid falling into [[Hydrocity Zone]].<br />
*After passing the portion of the level where Angel Island is set on fire, past the second [[Checkpoint|star post]], one can fall down and [[spindash]] to the left, accessing a hidden area containing a [[Giant ring|Special Stage Ring]]. After entering then leaving the special stage (regardless of outcome), the music played in the background will have changed from the Act 1 to the Act 2 music for the rest of the act (and essentially the rest of the stage, not counting the points where the music changes for bosses). The reason this happens is because, internally, the game has already switched to Act 2. The level being set on fire is simply a distraction while the game internally switches to Act 2, manually playing the Act 1 music in the process. When restarting, there is a special check to play the act 1 music if the starpost following the cutscene was the last one hit, but a technical error in this check means it fails to work, although even if it did work it would still be possible to trigger the bug with Tails if you bypassed the starpost right after the cutscene by flying over it. A similar glitch occurs near the end of Icecap Act 1 with Sonic<br />
*Nearing the end of Act 2, the character will pass through a long twisting tunnel, and if going fast enough will be thrown into the air off the top of the screen when exiting the tunnel. When playing as Sonic using a fire shield, the player can hold right and repeatedly press jump. The jump sound will sound followed by the fire shield sound, and the screen will move quickly to the right, as if there was a platform above the screen from which Sonic has jumped. The level then carries on as normal.<br />
<br />
==Badniks==<br />
* [[Rhinobot]] — A robotic rhino that charges at you.<br />
* [[Monkey Dude]] — Just your standard (blue) coconut throwing monkey.<br />
* [[Bloominator]] — A red flower with a metallic blue stem. <br />
* [[Catakiller, Jr.]] — A blue caterpillar surrounded by a shield-like contraption. Only the head is vulnerable.<br />
