Though [[Dust Hill Zone]] was scrapped early in development, badniks were still designed for the level. '''Cactus''' is one of them - a badnik which would be either mobile or stationary and would flash green and red before exploding. It appears to be similar to ''Sonic 1'''s [[Bomb]] badnik. An armadillo is also present.

'''Dragonfly''' is a airborn badnik which drops sections off its abdomen which would explode as they hit the ground. The concept may have led to the [[Bee]] or [[Buzzer]] badniks.

Scrapped enemies

Numerous enemies were conceived for the Sega Mega Drive game Sonic the Hedgehog 2, with many failing to be used in the final product. The following lists miscellaenous scrapped Sonic 2 enemies, most of which were devised by Tom Payne. Others, such as Ball, BBat, BFish, Bubbler, Frog, Gator, Redz, Snail and Stegway, are discounted as they either made it into prototypes of the game, or were officially given the go-ahead by planner Hirokazu Yasuhara.
