Over the past month, I've been doing some research on just where Sonic is getting these moves from. I know a lot of Sonic's moves do fit his style, but some are just so unlike him. Now, even though I played a good amount of Sega/Sonic games, I only found origins for a few moves. So I'm going to start a list of moves here & hopefully those of you here that have played a lot or just a few Sega games, can help me complete this list.
Move: Down-Air
Real Name: Shadow Eagle
Origin: Sonic Battle (GBA)
Okay, I spotted this the instant I saw the "Sonic Enters The Brawl" vid on Dojo. It's Shadow's Aerial Attack & Counter Attack in Sonic Battle for the GBA. It's almost the exact same animation in Brawl as it is in Sonic Battle. Shadow would stall in the air for a spit second, then come down forcefully with one leg extended downward, just like Sonic does in Brawl.
Move: Forward Smash
Real Name: Wind-up Punch
Origin: Sonic the Fighters
Just like in Brawl, Sonic would wind-up then unleash a strong punch.
Move: Side-Special (The beginning)
Real Name: Emerl Drive
Orgin: Sonic Battle (GBA)
This is only the beginning part of Sonic's Side Spin Dash.(Where he does a short jump) Emerl Drive is a weak version of Sonic Drive.In the game, Emerl would do a shot hop while spinning.
Move: Spin Shot (As it's know here)
Real Name: Sonic drive
Origin: Sonic Battle (GBA)
I have no expectation of people calling the Spin Shot, the Sonic Drive. But the Spin Shot has the exact same animation & most of the mechanics of the Sonic Drive. In Sonic Battle, Sonic threw a ring & then did a long distance jump toward the ring while spinning.
Move: Foward-Air
Real Name: Boost? (Sorry, I forgot the name)
Origin: NiGHTS Into Dreams/NiGHTS Journey of Dreams
Yes, I figured it out! Some people say this is one of Espio's moves. But a few days ago, it just clicked. This is NiGHTS boost from his games. Or more so, the ending of his boost. I mean look at it, Sonic even has his arms out just like NiGHTS does when he flies. Case Closed.
Move: The Slow Walk (the weird one)
Real Name: Monkey Walk (you know where I'm goin' with this :D)
Origin: ........Super Monkey Ball (xD)
I honestly think this is where his walk came from, but I'm not completely sure. Normally I wouldn't post something like this unless I was sure of it. But i know a few of you would find this conclusion hilarious.
Move: Forward-Tilt
Real Name: Horse Kick
Origin: Sonic the Fighters
Exact same animation in Brawl as it is in Sonic the Fighters. Sonic would stand on his hands the do an outward kick.
So far that's all I have. But if you notice any other Non-Sonic moves post them & I can add them to the list. Especially from Sega's big fighting games cause I know there are a few from there, but I don't play those games.
Please discuss.
