Boss Battle: EggRobo's Water Suction Machine - 8 Hits

Strategy:

  • When the machine charges, Spin Dash in the opposite direction to evade.
  • After a while, the machine will connect to the pillar above you and create a whirlpool. Attack the machine to destroy it.
  • If the machine takes off again, wait until it reconnects to the pillar before finishing it off.
Tips
  • In Sonic the Hedgehog 3, a spring in this area was replaced with a 1-Up.
  • In Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Knuckles pressed a switch that caused the bridge to collapse; here, you can break through the wall instead.
  • The row of spikes is too long to glide across from the floor; you must climb the western wall and glide from there.
