Green Wisp

The Green Wisp appears in Sonic Colors exclusively in the Wii version. It can give Sonic the Hedgehog the Green Hover ability, which turns him into a living hovercraft and allows him to reach high areas and perform the Light Speed Dash on a trail of rings.

Appearance
The Green Wisp has a round body with a small fin on top of its head. It has one blue eye in the middle of its head. Unlike most other Wisps, which have three tentacles, the Green Wisp has three sphere-like structures stemming from the body. The only other Wisp not to have tentacles is the Orange Rocket. The appearance of the Green Wisp resembles a spaceship, like how Sonic looks after he transforms.

Abilities
The Green Hover allows Sonic to only float around the stage and allows him to float to higher areas. The Green Hover also lets him do a notable (& vital) skill seen in 3D Sonic Games, the Light Speed Dash.

Trivia

 * According to the Sonic Colors website, the Green Wisps are subtle, yet pretty goofy. You never know when you might come across one.
 * The Green Wisps are not encountered until Starlight Carnival Act 4.
 * The Green Hover has a swapped color scheme to Sonic, where Sonic is blue with green eyes, the Green Hover is green with a blue eye.
