Bounce Attack

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

The Bounce Attack was first introduced in Sonic Adventure 2, and also appears in Sonic Advance 2 and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 game). When Sonic presses the button during a jump, he will crash down before bouncing back up. In the 3D games, Bounce Attacks can be strung together to reach high areas.

In Sonic Adventure 2, by spindashing toward a wall, jumping if necessary, and pressing at the moment of arrival at the wall, the bounce attack will actually trigger off the wall instead of the floor, and with the momentum of the spindash to boot. This can allow Sonic to reach exorbitant heights, up to seven times as high as a standard bounce can provide.
