Bosses and Character Battles

Chaos 0 - Boss Hit Chaos' head until he's down for the count. Watch out for his spinning and reaching attacks. Egg Hornet - Boss Story: I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! I ran across the Emerald Coast and found Tails, whom I haven't seen for a while. He had a great idea about creating something using a Chaos Emerald. He just loves making machines! What? He has a workshop in Mystic Ruins? OK, I'll go visit it if you want me to. The Fight: Avoid the missiles and the eventual charge by the Egg Hornet. When it's momentarily stuck in the ground, hit Eggman. Repeat until the fight is over. There will be more missiles to dodge after each successful hit. Knuckles - Character Battle Story: I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! I've found another Chaos Emerald in Icecap. Now, I have 2! Fantastic! Now, where should I go next? The Fight: Hit Knuckles 3 times to end this battle. Knuckles will attack more after each hit, including a glide attack after being hit twice. Chaos 4 - Boss Story: I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! Knuckles appeared out of nowhere and attacked me! Why?? Why would he do that? That Eggman must have tricked him again! Eggman took the 2 Emeralds I'd collected, and now Chaos has probably transformed again using their power! OK, show me how strong you think you are now! Come on, Chaos! The Fight: Attack Chaos 4's head when it's stationary in the water. Repeat until he's down for the count. Avoid the attacks, particularly the energy attacks that span the water. E-102 Gamma - Character Battle Story: I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! I finally found Amy! But then Eggman called another robot. Me, worried? No way! 'Cause I've never lost to Eggman! I'm not sure why Amy wanted me to stop, but she must have had her reasons. Suddenly, the Egg Carrier began to shake! Tails, you and Amy escape before the ship crashes!! I'll take care of Eggman! The Fight: Hit Gamma 3 times and the fight is over. After each hit, Gamma will attack a little more. Chaos 6 - Boss Story: I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! Eggman escaped to the bow of the Egg Carrier. After I transform the ship back to its original form, I'll chase him down! Nobody can stop me. Nobody!! Eggman, you won't get away this time! The Fight: Destroy Eggman's ice bots and throw them into Chaos 6's mouth to cause it to freeze. Then attack Chaos 6. Repeat until Chaos 6 is down for the count. Watch out for his attempts to suck you into his mouth, his attacks with his tail, and his energy attacks that span the ground. Egg Viper - Boss Avoid the laser fire (twice) after each of the early hits and don't fall off the platform during the fight. Do this fight quickly, especially after one platform is removed by the Egg Viper and you'll need to ride spinning disks to attack Eggman on the Egg Viper. At the end, it'll do a "suicide dive" in an attempt to kill you (which will cause you to have to do the fight all over again if it's successful). You need to have a few platforms left to survive the "suicide dive"--if you only have one platform left, you're dead.
