Sonic Advance 3: Part 29: Alter Emerald (Hyper Eggrobo Final Boss & Normal Ending)
Right after beating the Eggman boss of Chaos Angel, you automatically go into an 8th and "final" "Zone", called Altar Emerald.
Here, your character's return to Knuckles' Holy Summit from Sonic Battle to have a showdown against Eggman and his Gemerl assistant.
First, you fight Gemerl, himself, with his final new move being to fly above you and launch homing rockets at you left and right.
Beat him one more time and he'll retreat to Eggman for the final battle.
----------
Right at the Master Emerald, Eggman & Gemerl present their final merged weapon on the heroes: The Hyper Eggrobo.
Its weakspot is right where Eggman is in the cockpit. What you have to do is figure someway to get to it.
The robot's massive hands will smash away the ground, but then you can try to use them as platforms to reach the cockpit.
*OR*, you can use some kind of offense Tag Action to reach Eggman faster. You can absolutely cheese him if Tails is your partner, but there are some things other partners and leaders can do.
After enough damage, the Hyper Eggrobo blows up in a fantastic display of fire.
Eggman tries to make one last leave, but your leader just hits him once more time to bid him farewell. Gemerl seemed upset from this...
----------
All 5 main characters of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Cream (& Cheese), and Amy all then gather at the Master Emerald, where the giant stone then restores the entire world back to normal.
- Knuckles looks glad that the Master Emerald has been restored once more.
- Tails is happy from all of the Flickies gathering around,
- Cream & Cheese high five each other on a job well done. Vanilla will be proud of them.
- Amy takes this opportunity to get Sonic to finally marry her, but Sonic still refused to budge.
That's when Omachao shows up to give snap a group photo at them. They've saved the world!
----------
Or... at least that's how it feels for a while.
This whole time, I didn't try to get the Chaos Emeralds this time. If you hadn't gotten them all, you'll get a warning telling you to do so after the credits.
I'm gonna go back and fix this, because at this point, I've already gotten all of the missing Chao, which will then unlock the Special Keys. Complete an Act with a Special Key, and then you can take it to a Special Stage somewhere on the Zone's map.
Thanks for watching so far, but stay tuned for my Special Stages covered before the TRUE ending of this game!
