This power appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as Sonic's Final Smash.

Summary

When Sonic transforms, after saying "Now I'll show you!", he gains the ability to fly around the stage at an high speed. Thus, it is the fastest power up usable by Sonic. The transformation lasts for about 15 seconds, and, while Sonic is transformed, he is completely invincible. Sonic can attack in this form by simply ramming into opponents; the faster it's going, the more damage is dealt. Super Sonic can't KO himself when he reaches the edge of the screen, regardless of how far it is going. He is also unaffected by bumpers. If it is used when a section of the Bridge of Eldin is materializing, the move will end instantly. This is also useful when Sonic is falling down from the platform, which prevents him from being KO'd as it can break his fall. Also, if it has stopped or is going too slow, it can't even go through a fall-through platform.

Trophy Description

Sonic's Final Smash. The Chaos Emeralds give energy to all living things, and Sonic's gathered all seven of them, then used their power to transform into Super Sonic. His abilities in this form far surpass his normal ones, and he is even able to fly. He uses a lot of energy in this form, so he can only remain in it for a short time, but this time can be extended by collecting "rings".

Trivia

  • The Final Smash's trophy states Super Sonic first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which means that it is one of the few Final Smashes that weren't created for Brawl (others include:Giga Bowser, Beast Ganon, PK Starstorm, etc.). Despite that, Super Sonic is the only trophy that states at the bottom of the screen that it appeared outside Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
  • It's worth noting that the Final Smash Trophy depicts Super Sonic with all head quills standing up. The only exceptions in the Sonic series were Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, and the Sonic Advance series. From Sonic Heroes onward, the raised quills return. When Sonic begins flying, his quills take the slanted angle that was depicted in the Sonic Adventure and Advance series. When he stops, his quills return to the raised position.
  • One of the only forces in the game that can affect him is the Isaac assist trophy, and with correct timing, can cause him to self destruct if it pushes him away from the side when the Final Smash has, or has nearly ended, effectively meaning that he can't recover.
  • There is a glitch that can be used with Super Sonic on WarioWare, Inc. which starts with float around the side of the stage in the elevator part, then when the microgame starts Super Sonic will be under the main platform, then go to the middle. When the microgame ends, Super Sonic will be inside the main platform.
  • There is a glitch with Super Sonic that occurs on Green Hill Zone. If Super Sonic is used just before a part of the Green Hill Zone ramp comes back, Super Sonic will be able to move underneath the ground of Green Hill Zone in a ghost like fashion. So as long as he does not fully come back up from underneath the ground, Super Sonic will stay that way, until the end of his transformation. This glitch also can happen with Wario's Wario-Man as well if the player uses his aerials to stay up.
  • When activating his Final Smash with either giant or mini mode on, Sonic's voice will be unaffected.
  • The animation of Sonic turning into Super Sonic is modeled after that of the Super Sonic transformation sprite from Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
  • Like Wario-Man, Super Sonic can pass the Blast line
