Description

The combo attack is a technique where both Sonic and Knuckles combine their powers. When using it, Sonic and Knuckles grab each other's hand and begin spinning around in mid-air until they form a rather large blue and red-colored Spin Attack enveloped in a circular wave of wind/jet stream created by the spin's speed, with each participant using a synchronized Spin Attack inside it. While using this attack, Sonic and Knuckles are turned into a powerful projectile that can pierce through lasers and solid objects which neither Sonic or Knuckles can penetrate separately. It also allows limited flight, like a boomerang.^[2][3]
