Sonic The Hedgehog 3 adapts Sonic Adventure 2, but how true to the source material is it?
What are these powerful jewels, and why are they sought so desperately by villains like Eggman?
Let’s take a deeper look at these mysterious MacGuffins.
This article contains references to the (much-maligned) BioWare DS RPG, Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.
We’re including it here nonetheless, for completion’s sake.
What Powers Do The Chaos Emeralds Have?
While it is less powerful than the real thing, the false Emerald still functions as an energy source.
It’s got to be City Escape, right?
With an unlimited source of energy, his oversized contraptions could easily allow him to conquer the world.
Additionally, Super Sonic is far from the only form the Emeralds can spawn.
Sonic Superstarsshows off a whole new host of powers granted by the Emeralds.
The Master Emerald can also be used to temporarily remove the Chaos Emeralds' energies, rendering them inert.
Sonic and Dragon Ball have quite a lot in common.
Upon learning of Eggman’s deception, he joins Sonic in defeating the doctor.
All of these events are revealed for the first time inSonic Frontiers.
The Ancients who managed to escape to space before the end of their civilizationtook the Chaos Emeralds with them.
With their rivals destroyed by Chaos, the opposing Nocturnus Clan would likely have conquered the known world.
However, a strange phenomenon called theArgus Eventtrapped them in a pocket dimension called theTwilight Cage.
There, led by their absolute ruler Imperator Ix, the Nocturnus subjugated the alien species they found.
The surviving Echidna Clan membersassumed that the Nocturnus had been destroyed by Chaos.
Modern Times
InSonic Adventure, Dr. Robotnikfreed Chaos from the Master Emeraldin hopes of weaponizing the creature.
Using the Chaos Emeralds to transform, Super Sonic stopped Chaos and Tikal was able to calm its rage.
The Sol Emeralds allow Blaze to transform into Burning Blaze.
We’ve ranked every Sonic the Hedgehog movie from worst to best.
Sonic 1 is largely unconcerned with the echidna/owl feud, but Sonic 2 delves deeper into it.
In the end,Eggman betrays Knuckles and seizes the Emerald, embarking on a power-crazed rampage.
Eggman’s plans… do not pan out too well from that point forward.
The Emeralds appear in a slighty reduced capacity in Sonic 3, too.
It’s a Dragon Ball-y spectacle to behold.
Jumping withall seven Emeralds and fifty Rings in handwould trigger the transformation, granting Sonic invulnerability and enhanced speed.
And not just the ones Sega would prefer you to forget.
