As he appears identical to Super Knuckles, Knuckles does not receive any physical changes during this transformation, but his fur pulses from red to a whitish pink. Unlike his Super State, however, any fast movement he makes leaves after-images, similar to Hyper Sonic.
Powers and abilities[]
While in Hyper form, Knuckles' natural abilities are multiplied many times over; his already impressive strength, speed and accuracy increase vastly, and he is virtually invulnerable as long as the transformation lasts. Since Hyper Knuckles is an enhanced version of Super Knuckles, all of his physical abilities further surpass that of his traditional Super State and he gains additional abilities as well. When gliding into a wall at full speed, Hyper Knuckles can perform additional shock wave attack that causes a sudden earthquake and destroys all enemies on-screen,[2] and he can now breathe underwater as well.
Like most other super transformations obtained by the Chaos/Super Emeralds, once the player runs out of Rings, the Act Boss is defeated, or if Knuckles enters a Bonus Stage, he reverts back to normal.
In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, Knuckles has a transformation called Hyper Knuckles. However, this transformation can actually be classified as Super Knuckles, which is caused by a super transformation, rather than a Hyper form and is merely a name Knuckles has given it.
