Line 15:
* [[A Taste of Power]] - Sort of. {{spoiler|Dr. Eggman has a lot of HP, a lot of PP and a ridiculously powerful and easy-to-execute special attack in Bombardment, aswell as an instant kill attack against robots when used in conjunction with Tails. It's not a typical Taste of Power in that you don't start out with him, but he does leave the party about halfway through the game.}}
* [[Badass in Distress]] - The game's plot kicks off by having Knuckles kidnapped by the Marauders after they overwhelm him and Tails in a fight. By the time the heroes track him down, he's [[Redundant Rescue|already managed to break free.]]
* [[But Thou Must!]] - Averted. If you bring Cheese to Cream and she asks to join you, while if you say no she does ask multiple times, she does eventually give up.
* [[Chekhov's Boomerang]] - Emerl was picked up from ''Sonic Battle'', dusted off, and woven into the Nocturnus' history.
* [[Canon Dis Continuity]] - [[Word of God]] states that this game is not canon in any way.
Line 34:
* [[Dialogue Tree]] - As Tails explains it, you usually can choose between getting through the conversation as fast as possible, being nice, being neutral, and being snarky and rude.
* [[The Dragon|The Dragon(s)]] - Scylla and Charyb.
* [[Duel Boss]] - {{spoiler|The final battle between [[Eleventh -Hour Superpower|Super Sonic]] and Imperator Ix.}}
** Also, General Raxos.
* [[The Empire]] - Ix certainly runs the Twilight Cage like one. His title is "Imperator" for crying out loud.
* {{spoiler|[[Eleventh -Hour Superpower]] - Super Sonic, as always.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Enemy Mine]] - subverted}}
* [[Expy]] - Shade is pretty clearly an expy of [[Sonic the Hedgehog (Comic Book)|Julie-Su]], and the Nocturnus are expies of the Dark Legion.
Line 74:
* [[Mighty Glacier]] - Omega and Knuckles.
* [[Mythology Gag]] - Sort of. The game uses a ''lot'' of plot threads that [[Aborted Arc|Sega discarded or forgot about]], especially from ''Sonic Battle''. And then there's plenty of actual franchise references.
* [[New Game Plus+]] - Characters join your party at the same level they were at the end of the game. You're given the freedom to reassign all of their points used to boost their special abilities (except Sonic, since he technically never joins the party), allowing you to play around with new strategies. For some odd reason, although Chao Eggs regenerate, allowing you to collect any rare ones that you may have missed last time, rings don't, which means you have to depend on selling items back to the shops in order to make any more money.
* [[Noble Demon]] - Shade {{spoiler|pre-[[Heel Face Turn]]}}.
* [[No Ending]] - Combined with [[Sequel Hook]]. The game ends with {{spoiler|Sonic and friends learning that Eggman has taken over the world. And then they thank Bioware for being awesome.}}
* [[Odd Friendship]] - {{spoiler|During Eggman's stint as a member of your party, he and Tails strike up a friendship.}}
* [[One-Hit-Point Wonder]] - Built on the "[[Pokémon|Shedinja]]" model. {{spoiler|Super Sonic and Super Imperator Ix both do massive damage with each blow, but if they don't take out their opponent in one turn (by not executing the Action Commands perfectly for Sonic, or by the player screwing up enough Action Commands for Ix), their health regenerates and they have to start over}}.
* [[Operation: Jealousy]] - Amy claims to have a new boyfriend named Dexter. He's never seen, and depending on dialogue choices, Sonic suspects [[Girlfriend in Canada|she's making him up]]. If you're nice to Amy throughout the game, she eventually admits that she made him up.
* [[Optional Party Member]] - [[Game Breaker|Cream]] and Omega, both of which can be [[Lost Forever]].
* [[Point of No Return]] - Multiple. Whatever you do, make absolutely sure you follow {{spoiler|Eggman}}'s advice and don't go into Metropolis unless you're sure you've got everything you need. Also, make sure to get everything ''in'' Metropolis before trying to recapture the Master Emerald. And after that, get everything in Metropolis Ground Zero before finishing the chapter, and ''then'' make sure you have everything from the Twilight Cage before starting chapter 10.
Line 87:
* [[Required Party Member]] - Often, especially when the team splits up.
* [[Scylla and Charybdis]] - The names of two locations as well as two robot guardians.
* [[Shout -Out]] - A few to the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (TV)|SatAM]] cartoon (Swatbots), and the resident [[Robotic Psychopath]] calls a character "[[Knights of the Old Republic|meatbag...]]"
** And speaking of ''[[Star Wars]]'':
