Sonic & Shadow VS Metallix | Sprite Battle

I'm proud to present to you all, the second half of my last battle, and my first ever flash animation! I had so much fun working on this, and I managed to make it over twice as long as the last one in less time! I can't wait to get started on my next project. Thank you all for supporting me!

[@D00DM00D]

@@Firemarioflower Dude, you never played a Sonic game

[@justsomesimplenuclearbirbs4313]

@@Firemarioflower Hate to make you feel like an idiot but here's a list of the Super Transformation abilities (canonical which means no spinoffs): 1. The wielder gains near perfect invulnerability. Unless the attack came from someone/something like Dark Gaia, Solaris, the Egg Salamander or the Phantom Ruby zero damage will be dealt. 2. The wielder gains access to unlimited flight meaning that anyone who uses the Emeralds can fly until they run out of Ring energy meaning anyone fighting someone else with the Chaos Emeralds in the sky will get tired at some point during the fight. 3. If you're facing Shadow you have to deal with enhanced Chaos Powers meaning Chaos Control will last longer than normal. If you're facing Sonic you have to deal with speed that's faster than most characters. Remember this, in order to use the Chaos Emeralds you must turn your THOUGHTS into power not... whatevers going through your head.

Incredible work! Although the ending was a little abrupt, it's not a hard thing to ignore when the rest of the animation is fantastic. You can really feel the weight of all of the attacks and the overall choreography is brilliant. A certain few of the scenes remind me a lot of Nazo Unleashed and the Sonic RPG series.

[@neelmodi7765]

Personally I think the end is abrupt because it shows they learned from metalix turning super earlier
