The following list contains other scrapped enemies which were to be featured in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Some of the badniks were taken from concept art found here:

Cactus

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. The drawing of Sonic 1's Bomb badnik may mean the Cactus badnik behaved similarily to it. An armadillo is also present.

Dragonfly

Dragonfly is a airborn badnik which drops sections off its abdomen which would explode as they hit the ground.

Lobster

Lobster is a badnik which would swim underwater.

Mole

Mole is a badnik which appears to drill through walls to attack Sonic if he comes too close. This design may have led to the Grounder badnik.

Penguin

A Penguin badnik with a spring on its nose which would attempt knock Sonic away. Sonic would be forced to roll on the ground to defeat it. The Crawl badnik behaves similarly.

Pig

Various incarnations of a Pig badnik which seems to have evolved from a tank/cannon. It appears it was to shoot projectiles from its snout.

Porcupine

Porcupine seems to be a land-based badnik. Possibly one that could only be rolled into.

Pteredactyl or Vulture

Pteredactyl or Vulture is a badnik which would fly in the air, opening a hatch in its stomach to drop projectiles on Sonic.

Squid

Squid appears to be a badnik which was to appear in underwater sections. More concept art can be seen here.

Unamed Stegosaurus

There were numerous scrapped dinosaur badniks, such as this Stegosaurus. As Hidden Palace Zone contained the Redz and Stego badniks, they may have been planned for that zone.

Unamed T-Rex

A T-Rex. It's possible that the scrapped time travel concept influenced some of these designs.

Unamed Octopus

This Octopus may have been an early version of the Octus badnik.

Unamed Flying Thing

A strange Flying Thing which may have been an eagle or some type of dinosaur. It may have become the Balkiry enemy.

Unamed Thing

Some Unamed Thing which may have been a lizard or some type of dinosaur.

Unamed Grasshopper

An Unamed Grasshopper. Sonic 3's Mantis badnik may have recycled this concept.

Unamed Flying Thing 2

Unamed Flying Thing which may have also been a grasshopper.

Unamed Spring Orb

A Spring Orb badnik which hops and tries to land on Sonic to do damage.

Various Dinosaurs

Various Dinosaurs of various sorts.
