Team Rose

Team Rose is one of four teams in Sonic Heroes, along with Team Sonic, Team Dark, and Team Chaotix. Its members are Amy Rose (speed type), Cream the Rabbit (flight type), and Big the Cat (power type) with the leader being Amy. This team has the easiest acts.

Members

 * Amy Rose (Speed member, leader)
 * Cream the Rabbit (Flight member)
 * Cheese the Chao (Cream's pet)
 * Big the Cat (Power member, Sonic Heroes)
 * Vector the Crocodile (Power member, Sonic Free Riders)
 * Blaze the Cat (Power member, Archie)

Sonic Heroes
The team's history begins in Sonic Heroes with Amy, in love with Sonic as always, not having been in contact with him for over a month. She is about to quit when she stumbles upon a newspaper article about a Chao and a frog being carried off by "Sonic". Rushing to the publisher of the article, she meets up with Big, Cream, and Cheese. At the beach, they explain everything. Cream is looking for Chocola, Cheese's twin, and Big has lost Froggy once again. Amy decides that the three team up, forming Team Rose.

Team Rose's levels basically start later in the stage, and end earlier. This would be mostly intended for beginner players. Their extra levels involve them collecting 200 rings in a stage, but if the player take damage from just one enemy, they lose all of their rings. Team Rose's Team Blast is Flower Festival.

The theme song of Team Rose is 'Follow Me' by Kay Hanley, although it is more geared towards Amy rather than Cream and Big.

Sonic Free Riders
Team Rose appears again in Sonic Free Riders. Amy and Cream both entered the race, but Big didn't seem to be entered in the tournament, so the character replacing Big is Vector the Crocodile.

Sonic Universe
Although the team's name is not mentioned until the end of Issue 21, Team Rose does appear in Sonic Universe's "Treasure Team Tango" arc, with an anger-stricken Blaze the Cat replacing Big the Cat as they fight for the Sol Emerald.

Unofficial Appearances
Although Team Rose have only appeared in Sonic Heroes and Sonic Free Riders, there have been other instances were the these characters, or a similar combination, have worked together.

In Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood all three members of Team Rose appear as recruitable members of Sonic's party that appear at different points of the game. Amy is the first party member to join Sonic, and Big later joins the party in Mystic Ruins. Cream is one of the optional party members in the game, and can only be recruited after the player locates her chao, Cheese. If all three members are in the player party, they can perform a special POW move called Flower Power.

Team Rose is the team that attacks the least. Amy can attack twice, but Cream and Big can only attack once per turn.

Appearances In Other media
In Sonic X, episode 58, Amy, Cream and Cosmo join together in order to complete their respective goals. Together, the three can perform a special move: Cream, carrying Cosmo, who is in turn holding Amy, spins the three of them around whilst Amy pulls out her hammer and strikes opponents.
