History
Battle For Angel Island
The Battleship was first seen being used by the Resistance and its allies to reach Angel Island. When the Battleship approached Angel Island however, the Egg Fleet, which had occupied the island, began shooting at it, forcing the Battleship down. By the time the Battleship crashed on Angel Island however, everyone onboard had evacuated it.[1]
Crisis City
A Battleship was eventually sent to Seaside City by Amy as a Rescue Shuttle to help with the evacuation of citizens after the city was attacked with the Metal Virus by Dr. Eggman in his Faceship. After its arrival, the shuttle helped a handful of uninfected citizens escape, including Vector the Crocodile and Espio the Chameleon.[2] Another Rescue Shuttle was later sent down to Floral Forest Village to evacuate the uninfected villagers of the Metal Virus, which included Cream the Rabbit and Vanilla the Rabbit.[4]
The Last Minute
When Restoration HQ was the subject for a Zombot outbreak, Amy called for the Restoration pilots to quickly go to the launch bay and prepare for an immediate take-off. However, only one pilot was able to make it out of the HQ uninfected. Not many refugees made it out of the HQ uninfected either but several of them still boarded the one ship. After it took off, the Rescue Shuttle went to Central City to rescue the uninfected citizens there. The ship landed at Central City Bay, which prompted Tangle and Whisper to guide the city's survivors into the ship. After Tangle, Whisper and Tails boarded the Rescue Shuttle, the ship took off once again.[5][6]
The Rescue Shuttle was soon flown to Spiral Hill Village after a Zombot outbreak there. Amy and Gemerl created a choke point a choke point at the ship to prevent any Zombots from approaching. After several uninfected citizens were rescued, the shuttle took off once again.[7]
All or Nothing
Silver went to Ice Paradise with a Rescue Shuttle in hopes to save the citizens there after a Zombot outbreak occurred. Unfortunately, the ship went down to the Zombots and Silver was unable to save anyone. Meanwhile, the final Rescue Shuttle traveled to Angel Island as a final safe haven. Later, on the ship, the group received word from Rouge about the Deadly Six's plans.[3]
