In space, Sonic, transformed into Super Sonic, cornered Dr. Eggman while inside the doctor's space armada. As Eggman seemingly admitted defeat, Sonic walked away, only for Eggman to activate a machine that drained him of his Super State. While the doctor used the power of the Chaos Emeralds to shatter the world, Sonic transformed into a Werehog. Eggman, shocked at this, sent Sonic and the drained Chaos Emeralds plummeting down to the planet below. There, Sonic woke up on the outskirts of Windmill Isle and found the drained Chaos Emeralds as the sun rose up, returning him back to his normal self. Curious to know what just happened, Sonic set off to a new adventure.[2]

Sonic Colors[]
As Sonic and Tails entered Eggman's Incredible Interstellar Amusement Park, they tried to decide where to go first, as they suspected Eggman was up to something. Suddenly, they saw Orbot, Cubot and Egg Pawns chasing down strange aliens. As Sonic saved the aliens, he received the power of a cyan alien which he used to destroy the Egg Pawns, making Orbot and Cubot flee the scene. Using Tails' handheld as an alien language translator for one of the aliens, Sonic and Tails learned that the aliens were being kidnapped by Eggman to be used as fuel. Sonic, along with Tails and the Wisps, thus set off to save the aliens and the captured planets.[4]

Following a series of untold events, Sonic found himself onboard the E.G.G. Station, where he had a final showdown against Dr. Eggman in the Egg Destroyer Battlesuit. After the doctor was defeated, a chain reaction was triggered, causing the space station to be destroyed. Escaping, Sonic used a rocket provided by Tails and returned home to find the fox cub who revealed that Little Planet was making its annual return. As Sonic was reminiscing his last adventure there, the animals informed him and Tails that Eggman was up to his old tricks again, so the duo set off on a brand new journey on the Tornado.[1]

With the arrival of the Olympic Games, Sonic and his friends got ready to participate. Meeting with Tails in the coliseum, Sonic got side-tracked by the Olympic ring banner until Tails brought back his focus. Unbeknownst to them, Dr. Eggman, along with Orbot and Cubot, had planted traps that caught all of Sonic's friends so Eggman could win the Olympic glory. As Sonic, Shadow and Tails trained for the long jump event, Tails got cornered by Caterkillers. Sonic and Shadow destroyed the robots, but Shadow and Tails got captured.[6]

Making an appearance, Eggman gloated about his victory to Sonic. Goading the doctor, Sonic reminded Eggman that he was still here to kick his butt in the Olympics. However, Eggman had Metal Sonic compete in his stead. After several events, the two competitors were down to the 100 meter dash. Initially too tired to compete, Sonic harnessed the power of the Olympics to re-energize himself and beat Metal Sonic to the Prison Egg, releasing his friends while Eggman and his goons fled. Tails asked Sonic if he was going to rest out for the real Olympics, but the hedgehog denied, not wanting to wait for the next.[6]
