Spear of Light

The Spear of Light is move used by Super Shadow in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). It is a technique where Super Shadow releases several Chaos Lances at one that homes onto his opponent. It has so far only been used in his battle against Solaris.

Usage
In order to perform this move Super Shadow must be his super transformed state due to the sheer power and nature of this move. To perform it, Super Shadow then has to charge up a certain amount of red Chaos Energy in his hands. Once he has gathered enough Chaos Energy, he releases nine Chaos Lances at once in a small burst of Chaos Energy, which will then automatically and simultaneously home onto Solaris with enough force to penetrate his light shells. In order for the player to perform the Spear of Light in gameplay, Super Shadow's Action Gauge has to be fully charged, which can be charged by holding down the RT button/R1 button. Once the Action Gauge is fully charged, Super Shadow will launch the Spear of Light when pressing the X-button/Square button.

If Super Shadow's Action Gauge is not fully charged or not charged at all when attemping to perform the Spear of Light, Super Shadow will perform a weaker version of the Spear of Light. Instead, he can only launch normal Chaos Lances that will home onto Solaris, and can so in rapid succession, but he can only fire one at a time. Also, these Chaos Lances are not strong enough to damage Solaris, and is therefore useless in the battle. If Super Shadow's Action Gauge is partially charged when lauching the Chaos Lances, it will drain the Action Gauge for each Chaos Lance used, and therefore has to be recharged all over.
