Eldorado Zone

The Eldorado Zone is one of the Zones of Mobius, built after Doctor Robotnik's fall from power on the site of the old Diamond Mine Zone. The local residents all became rich because of the local diamond mine, and began to act like stuck-up snobs. They all wear lots of jewellery, primarily gold and diamond, and they only ever eat in expensive restaurants.

History
While flying through the Eldorado Zone, Tails decided to stop and see if he could get a veggie burger at a local chip shop, only to appalled at the resident's snobbish behaviour. Nevertheless, he rescued the patrons of a local restaurant (Chez Pierre) from a runaway Drill-bit from the underground diamond mine, which had homed in on the jewellery of the diners and burst through the ground. One woman tried to give him a diamond necklace as a thank you, but Tails turned it down and was spurned for lack of class by the wealth-obsessed residents.

Soon afterwards, a diamond tiara was stolen from the apartment of Mrs. Curly-Smythe. A security camera shot showed a silhouetted figure, much like Tails, enterring the thirteenth-floor apartment from the outside. The Zone's residents immediately assumed Tails was responsible, declaring him a thief. Even when Tails was present immediately after a robbery, while the real thief escaped, they accused him, but Tails finally convinced them to give him a chance to clear his name.

With the help of the local residents, Tails laid a trap for the thief by painting a bike frame and claiming it was the 'Golden Bike Frame of the Steptoe Zone'. This successfully drew out the thief, who called himself the Leaf and flew by means of a pair of mechanical wings. Tails chased him through the sky until the wings ran out of power, then handed him over to the authorities.
