Past Sonic cartoons had Chaos Emeralds function differently than their canon counterparts.


 * AoSTH Chaos Emeralds each had a unique shape and power which they would grant their holder, often when specific conditions are done.
 * SatAM did not have any Chaos Emeralds. Closest to their equivilent the cartoon had were the Deep Power Stones.
 * Sonic Underground Chaos Emeralds functioned more like the Master Emerald. Large, green and mostly use to keep large mass airborn. Power from these emeralds were often green and when broken would release apocalyptic energy to Mobius.
 * Sonic X Chaos Emeralds were more inspired by canon Chaos Emeralds, though their radiation would interfere with machines and would often react with disperse of light and energy when emeralds are near each other.
 * Chaos Crystals from Sonic Boom are the recent cartoon versions of the emeralds. They've yet appeared in the cartoons.
