Tails: *literally gets blown up and dies* 5 seconds later Tails: "Great, I won!"

Sonic Battle is repetitive yet somehow very addicting, so I don't think it is unjustified that you love it.

"I don't even want to imagine a character like Emerl in Smash Bros, you could create a character with every one of my most hated attacks!" It's funny you mention that, because that's what I THOUGHT Mii Fighters would be like in Smash 4, but that sadly turned out to not be the case.

Fun fact about Cream: Even without filling up her Ichikoro Gauge, two to three of her Set specials are enough to take a stock. That's right, 2 to 3. That move is absurd. As for Emerl... hoo boy. Let's not mention the Attack Support and Strength Support cards! The former increases your attack power, while the latter increases your defense. With these, you can pretty much become unstoppable! If you do die, there's also Gamma's stance which gives you the last-ditch explosion. Screw unlocking the Ultimate and Rare skills though... Also Chaos's optional fight in Emerl's story is just silly. He has massively increased attack power in his fight, so his regular combo just puts you out of commission. Thankfully he's slow as molasses, so it should be a free 5 Skill Points. Speaking of Skill Points, Emerl going Ultimate and going crazy makes total sense. All of his Ultimate skills take up more than 500 Skill Points, that's why he's overloading.

Sonic Battle is what Sonic Smackdown wants to be.

The majority of characters that can be fully customized are going to be god-like. Robin from Fire Emblem Awakening is good example. It is nice to hear about Sonic Battle, that’s always been a game I’ve been interested in.

Sonic Battle is easily one of my favorite games on the GBA. It's such a fun stress reliever! Fun fact: Etika (famous youtuber who isn't with us anymore) got his name from this game.

I remember when I played this game as a kid. I literally had no idea that you could give Emerl skills until the Final Chapter, I seriously don't know how little me did it but I got to the Final Chapter with shitty base Emerl, lol.

This guy remembers Meteos, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, and Sonic Battle. That's three of my favorite obscure games covered on this channel... I wonder if he knows Custom Robo: Arena? Or Mech Platoon?

Sonic battle is an interesting game. Canonical it takes place inbetween sonic advance 2 and sonic advance 3. And what many didn't know is that gmerl from sonic advance 3 was made from using emerl's parts and data and in the end was turned good by tails in sonic damage 3. It's a fun game with a great story. Not a mystery dungeon or final fantasy tactics advance story but a great one.

Of course Emerl is op, if he wasn't dead, he could win every battle

The ending of this game makes me so emotional also spent so long building up my brand new friend Emerl then seeing him go haywire made me so sad. I was 8 years old at the time and I remember not being able to do the fight because I was to busy crying from that.

BTW, Emerl has some really BS on his moveset: His ultimate Smash attacks have projectiles, his normal smash has a tentacle from Chaos, and his Up Smash has a tornado from Amy, if his Ichikoro bar is full, THESE PROJECTILES CAN OHKO, any Emerl attack that sends projectile can do that. His placeholder special moves have hitboxes, but are totally useless, unless you have Ichikoro full, those can 1shot even if they are placeholders, but unlike other specials, the bar does not deplete.

Man, I love GBA games that pull of the illusion of 3D graphics.

Emerl is basically the Kirby of the Sonic universe.

Emerl always reminded me of Medabots, if anyone can even remember that. I don't know why, though.

seeing this video makes me realize how much a second sonic battle would kick ass. especially with all the new characters they could use, and even characters that came before this game

It’s hard to find people who appreciate lesser known games. For example, people only know of Mother 3 because Lucas is in smash and people only make the joke of it getting an English localization because people who actually played the game already made that joke. I’m so glad that you’re covering these hidden gems where no one else would.

i instantly recognized the thumbnail from sonic battle

I also had a lot of fun with this game. It's really nostalgic to me.

Soooooo Smeargle if Smeargle could steal decent stats alongside moves

Sonic: "GOTTA HEAL.... slow :'("

It's interesting to see game-Emerl. I'm not familiar with this game, so up until now, I've only seen anime-Emerl, as he appears in Sonic X. Spoilers ahead, for Sonic X! It's funny to see you mainly talk about Cream and Emerl in this vid, and the fact Emerl outclasses even Cream and Shadow, considering in the anime Cream was the one who ended up destroying Emerl once he lost himself (and well, the circumstances were pretty different overall). It was all the more sad since the poor bunny had to kill someone who became probably her best friend. Man, that anime is a rollercoaster of emotions. It can induce such a rapid succession of joy and sadness... I don't care if people don't like it. I love it. Sure, it has flaws, but most shows do anyway. But well... you'd have to watch it uncensored, unaltered, and obviously in japanese (there is a subbed version you can hunt down) - I mean, if you wan't it uncensored and unaltered, you don't really have a choice, you can't watch any dub. It's really great.

This is perhaps the only Sonic game I truly liked, and of course it had to be the one that made me feel feelings. I thought the first time, that Sonic would just beat him and he'd be fine and happy ending for all. But no. Emerl dies. And it hurt so bad when I played the game a second time - when Emerl calls out for everyone as he overloads, crying in pain, calling Amy "Mom".

I mean, Emerl is basically Omnitrix: The Robot. He's legit one of the stupidly OP characters in gaming, and even with a limit of skills to equip, he doesn't actually stop absorbing them, since he canonically absorbs skills from whatever it is he sees/fights against/deems Link-worthy. Although, for that 14:14 part, I mean, there should defiinitely be Characters Only competitions without Emerl (or if you want to play as your Emerl, just keep all the colors but equip all the skills to this or that character), and Emerls Only competition where everyone gets to fight with their own Emerl combos. It would be fair, since everyone would have the same ability to mix and match skills: you'd just have to ban skill combos that are designed to be exploits, create a banlist based on tournament results and used strategies, and it would work. Ugh. I'd love to see a fresh version of this game with that possibility.

I knew this video will be made eventually.

YEEESSSS!!! An episode for my boi!

Out of the characters that aren't Emerl. Rouge is quite cheesy to play with due to her aerial kick being very spammable.

I remember when I finished Sonic Battle for the second time (years after my first time). I went straight to you Cream video to comment about how powerful she is in this game. Glad you gave her the spotlight again ^^

I dont know if too many people know this but the game gives you one of the most useful moves in the game at the start. Emerl's broken Sonic Set special may not put a bomb down but its spamable, quick and can lock the A.I in an air juggle. Instead of a bomb you have another physical atk and the Ichikoro OHKO still works. Oh and the move is unblockable (or the a.I is just to stupid to block it lol)

I can always appreciate a mention of _Power Stone,_ that series was rad as hell! Sadly underrated though these days, but hopefully one day we'll get that next sequel!

I'm not sure if you count his as legit, but in Emerl's story, you can put in special passwords, (how you originally were supposed to find them, I have no idea) and get special Ultimate Combo skill cards. If you can nail the opponent with the first move, the rest is pretty much strong enough to one-shot them. Just don't do it to Gamma XD

Sonic battle,a fun game in which all the characters are unbalanced.

And when you think everything is chaotic, you get the "Character Combo" cards These cards that do an entire combo (seriously, like 15+ hits or something) capable of KO-ing every enemy. Also you can use the combo with the Ichikoro bar at its fullest to cause *every single hit of the combo* to 1-hit KO. Each hit causes the "lightning" effect and Emerl continues to hit the enemy even they are completely dead. Straight up cruelty xD

Sonic battle is the sole reason sprite animation fights exist.

I just wanted to say that this are the best videos to watch if you can't hear. They convey emotions really well through your text and format.

liked for line at 1:06, you are absolutely right

Oh my Emerl >< His theme Emerl Config is awesome until today :3

I actually passed over Sonic Battle because I heard everyone saying it was bad, but now you've convinced me to give it a shot! Thanks Git!

Underrated Sonic game Overpowered Specials

i love this game and emerl is defo my favourite part of the entire thing purely because i like customizing whatever i can customise in a game

I forgot all about Sonic Battle, it's one of my favorite Sonic games! I had a Gargantuan Gaming Gaffe of my own when I played it back in the day. I didn't know you could customize Emerl's moveset, so I played the whole first half of the game with default Emerl

It's also very worth saying that many of Emerl's ultimate basic attacks have other character's specials incorporated on them -- and those can and WILL kill you instantly if his Ichikoro gauge is filled up, and those attacks won't reset it back to empty.

An extra:emerl is one of the gizoids,if all the tribe could be as powerful as him you could easily have an army of thousand star buster,and if optimized,solar system buster soldiers.

Really loved this game, great video, I learned a few new tricks watching it.

oof, talk about a tough fight. also, thanks for making me remember of sonic satAM, that show was amazing ^^

I just started playing sonic battle and you're timing was prefect!!!!

Brings back good memories

I made up a tier list. Anything Goes: Emerl S: Sonic (Has an infinite), Shadow and Cream (Reasons other than this video, she has the fastest air mobility and the best dash attack in the game which confirms into anything, including another dash attack) A: Tails (He has insane combo potential), Amy and Rouge B: Knuckles and Gamma (If you know how to use their dashes to their maximum they're amazing, but nobody experimented with them yet) Bottom tier: Chaos 0 (His combo one shots everybody but he's so slow he can't do anything without being demolished)

I cried when Emerl died :'(

Kirby can copy all basic b abilities in smash bros, but ridley and gannon can use their nigh unlockable b side, and then theirs banjo and kazooie with their priority zero flame charge, Steve/Alex/zombie/enderman with their build mechanics, and any aim fire final smash

I love this game and your videos!

My Boi Gemerl is finally getting the love he deserves. I am genuinely thankful for this vid

This was so good! I had no idea this game existed.

Loved playing Sonic Battle, such a fun game and tons of memories

Yooo, is that some Speed Freaks music I hear? Nostalgia! :D Sonic Advance (the whole trilogy, really) is also super nostalgic to me. Unfortunately, I didn't get to play Battle as a kid, but when I was a teenager I discovered emulators and I played it that way and I absolutely loved the game. :D Great video! It makes me want to play Battle again though...

What a coincidence, I get into Sonic Battle again and Git uploads a Sonic Battle episode! What are the chances?

Oh hey, my favorite Sonic character! And probably one of my favorite charactes in general!

Rita Mordio in Tales of Vesperia was extremely broken dye to overlimit granting instant casting.

I didn't play this game when it was originally out. I played on my phone with an emulator two years ago (out of curiosity) and MAN DID I LOVE IT. I wish I didn't sleep on this game when I was a kid. Its a fun game with a fun story to.

If this is how powerful Emerl is now, remember this: Using the Chaos Emeralds, getting to other universes isn't out of the question. Imagine how powerful he'd be able to get if he got a hold of, say, Bayonetta's time slowing, Sora's leaf bracer, and Shulk's visions.

Initiating recovery mode That phrase won’t get irritating. (Sarcasm)

Git does Sonic Battle?,DUDE GIT MY MAN,YOU GET ANOTHER LIKE FOR THIS! 👌

I literally saw Cream's video yesterday, what are even the odds? GG

You Become de BOSS! amazing

Oh damn, Sonic Battle? That has to be one of my most played Game Boy titles, right after Mario vs Donkey Kong! Great explanation of Emerl's abilities, hopefully this game gets a new boost of relevancy via emulators.

I still cannot understand why they decided to make Shadow faster than Sonic in this game. So much for being the "fastest thing alive."

He may move slow, he can’t jump high, But this bot gets better later on in the game

13:43 yep you are right, imagine a Emerl with ridley down b

Ichikoro ... Ichi = one in Japan Koro ~> extended to Korosu = kill in Japan so one-kill ~> one-shot or instakill great work there, Sega! :v

Sonic Battle is pure nostalgia

Sonic Battle. One of the most Underrated Sonic game series

Oh there's a thought. Emerl in Smash. Don't know why I never thought of it before, but now I kinda of want him there lol

This game warrants its own Creepy Bad Endings video imho It's just that bittersweet...

I miss Sonic battle so much I constantly play it over and over

Man, I loved blowing up the mean NPC who downed me. Self-Destruction was only a bit op.

Emerl is underrated

There's also Chaos Zero (who's just came back, somehow..), hits like a truck and has good range but it's the slowest character in the game by far.

*Sega Scourge had entered the Chat*

Sonic Battle was really good I really enjoyed it

i love sonic battle so much, my emerl had the self destruct death and either gamma's heal or cream's heal i can't remember which, i love this game so much and should play it again. :)

Nice

Fortunately for Sonic's claim to fame, one of the two "faster" characters alternates with him for the spot so often they're essentially tied, and the other one isn't exactly "alive".

Some love for my sweet robo boy. I appreciate it.

I commented about Cream's heal on the other Cream video, I hope it helped inspire this.

Yooooo I forgot about this game!! Never been a sonic fan but this game was flames 🔥 🔥🔥🔥

a surprise to be sure but a welcome one

Iirc, Emerl can also acquire moves through certain codes enterable at some point in the game. These unlock special moves that are basically ohko if you land them.

Okay but club rouge is naturally relaxing

Emerl in Smash eh ? Guess he can mimic the ultimate chimera this way

YESSSSSS finnaly emerl, he's just the best lad.

Metal Sonic: Mwahaha! I am the ultimate mechanical deity, capable of analyzing and copying the abilities of Mobius' strongest fighters, transforming and surpassing them! Super Emerl: brah you need to chill

3:14 - 3:23 Tails: I've been wanting to do this for years, Sonic!!

I wish I still had Sonic Battle was one of my first GBA games

Bro as soon I got Cream Heal, I put that on Emerl as fast as I could

Ah yeah, my favorite homie in the Sonic Series.

I love the text style and have for years and yes sonic is the best

Super Emerl final form is Super Sonic, all his ultimates are copies of Sonic's and he has all the Chaos Emeralds.

You like Cream too? Glad to know I'm not the only one. (That may have something to do with Advance 2 being the first Sonic game I owned.)

Nice video and in case you are wondering no this game isnt really played competitevly as its preety simple mechanic wise with a small roster and big balance issues. However a tier list would look something like this: SSSS:Emerl S: Shadow A: Cream B+:Tails B: Rogue, Amy, Sonic C: Gamma, Knuckles D: Chaos
