Auto Homing

The Auto Homing is a Power Formation maneuver used by Team Sonic, Team Dark, Team Rose and Team Chaotix in Sonic Heroes. When performing this move, the Power type character from each team (Knuckles the Echidna, E-123 Omega, Big the Cat and Vector the Crocodile) gets close to enemies while their team mates attack them with Homing Attacks.

Description
When using Auto Homing, the Power type character of the team approaches nearby enemies. The Speed type member and Fly type member on the team then jumps up and attack the enemies with the Homing Attack.

To perform the Auto Homing in gameplay, the selected team has to be in Power Formation with the Power type member as the leader and must have as least one other team member present or the technique will fail. All the player has to do then is approach the enemies and the other team members will automatically attack them with the Homing Attack.

When the team members attack as a part of the Auto Homing, the effects of their Homing Attack will be the same as those of the Speed type member's Homing Attack at the current time. This means that if the Speed type character's Homing Attack is at level three from collecting three blue Power Cores, then the Homing Attacks the team members use due to Auto Homing will strike with the same power and effects as if they were on level three as well.
