The Flash Switch[1] is a gimmick that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a variation of a Switch used to activate other obstacles, gimmicks, or structures using Cyloop.

Description[]

Flash Switches are lamp-sized magenta switches attached to surfaces or walls. The switch's bulb determines the light color; dark cyan when inactivated and cyan when activated.

Overview[]

Frontiers Cyloop Switch Activation

Sonic using Quick Cyloop to activate the Flash Switch.

In Sonic Frontiers, Flash Switches only appear during The Final Horizon scenario. It can be found throughout most platforming sections around Ouranos Island. To activate the switch, the player should either use Cyloop, Quick Cyloop, Cyhammer, Cyknuckle, or Cyblaster. However, a traditional Cyloop may not be possible to perform if the switch is placed on walls or other placement where the user cannot reach using the move. If the player does not have enough Cyloop meter to use the switch, they can instead attack it to refill meter by locking on the switch and use Homing Attack or Wrench Attack, although it does not activate the switch. Using Cyloop or other Cyloop variations on the switch activates other gimmicks, obstacles, and structures briefly before disabling it. In some cases, Flash Switches may not reset certain obstacles (unless if they leave the area), such as Laser fields or Springs, even after the switch turns off.
