Darkspines' new ability is vital to this battle; by shaking the Wii-mote up and down, Darkspines is able to charge his Soul gauge. The final Boss has four types of attacks. The first consists of multiple energy balls being thrown towards you. He will use this attack when the battle begins, making it impossible to use slow down time. Just move to the left and right to avoid this first barrage. Any other time he uses this attack, you should slow down time to dodge them. His second attack involves him slashing at Sonic with his claws. Simply look where the white lines appear on the screen and dodge accordingly. Make sure to jump if he slashes at the bottom of the screen. His third attack will not occur until you make your first round of hits. He will then create blue energy balls that draw you in for damage. You should also slow down time for this one and use short jump if needed for speed dodging. His final attack leaves him open for attack. He creates a huge energy ball above his head. Speed break to stop the energy ball. When you make contact, Sonic will try to push it back. Shake the Wii-mote rapidly to send it back. Then, shake the Wii-mote to charge Sonic's Soul gauge and perform another speed break. Sonic will greet the Boss' weak point on his forehead. Again, shake the Wii-mote rapidly to attack his weak spot. After Sonic sends him flying, recharge your Soul gauge for the next round.
