This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this. Specifically: Upload the animations in .gif images, and format the article better.

Unused Animations#

Unused Combat Animations#

These are unused animations for Sonic's combat skills. The animations themselves aren't inside Sonic's .asm file, so it is speculated that these are leftover animations from an older combat system. These animations also look extremely similar to some of the combo animations used for the Phantom Rush ability.

chr_sonic@stomp_cons

An unused multi-stomp attack animation.

chr_sonic@combo_tornado

An unused tornado-kick attack that looks similar to the Cyclone Kick.

chr_sonic@combo_uppercut

Unused uppercut animation.

chr_sonic@combo_quickstep01_finish

chr_sonic@combo_sliding01_finish

chr_sonic@combo_dropkick

An unused dropkick animation. Notably, it looks extremely similar to the Phantom Rush combo finisher.

chr_sonic@combo_cyloop01_attack

A quick cyloop combo attack animation. This animation is mostly similar to how it looks in the final version. However, the Quick Cyloop itself uses a different animation instead of reusing the Air Boost.

chr_sonic@combo_avoid01_finish

An unused combo finisher.

Unused "Bad Catch" Animation#

This is an unused animation for the fishing minigame, and would presumbly be used when you catch less favourable items. (like cans)

Unused Enemy Animations#

enm_wolf01@stun_loop.anm.pxd

Unused stun animation for Wolf.

enm_wolf01@somersault_ready_start

enm_wolf01@somersault_atk

An unused attack.

enm_wolf01@seek

An animation of Wolf looking around and walking.

enm_wolf01@knockback

enm_wolf01@fall_loop

enm_wolf01@blow_u_loop

enm_wolf01@blow_f_spin_loop

This animation would be used when Drop Dashing, Sliding, or Spin Dashing into the enemy. But, there is no way to activate this animation normally, as Wolf doesn't enough enough HP for you to see it.

enm_wolf01@attack_step

An unused melee attack similar to the Soldiers.

enm_wolf01@attracted_loop

Another "attracted" animation, it shows Wolf shaking violently.

enm_wolf01@attack_claw

Another melee attack, this time Wolf is stationary.

enm_wolf01@attack_counter

An unused counterattack.

enm_wolf01@attack_cons

An unused series of melee attacks.

These animations are from the unused 3D variant of the Grabber enemy.

Swimming animation for the Chopper Badnik.
