 I hope you know the chaos emeralds have limitless power so them losing power can EASILY be deemed as a game mchanic.  In cutscenes rings are nowhere in sight, which shows that no characters use it.This is because you characters getting ht, yet NO rings are shown to appear. They are also used as money and a health bar. Look at the final boss of Sonic Unleashef in both versions, they were used for Super Sonic as normal gameplay AND a health bar for Super Sonic.
