== Plot for Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Blaze, E-123 Omega, Maria Robotnik, Tikal, Princess Elise, Shadow and Wave ==
Tokyo is a city that never sleeps, with skaters, gangs, idols, school idols and more, Sonic is seen living here in an apartment, he is too busy trying to read a book while a mini fan is blowing, as sonic is sweating after the hot day (and hot date he had with wave the swallow), one day, he sees the egg carrier floating in the sky near the beach, confused, he decides to run after it, also, near tokyo is Metal City, where wave the swallow and the others live, near the fabled Babylon Garden, she sees eggman dispatching robots and goes after them by riding on her board and ramming into the enemies, then meanwhile, it is revealed that sonic got put in prison after GUN mistakened him for a criminal named "Shadow" he then sees a group named the frantic four, who have been stuck there for years, waiting for revenge against eggman, who gassed them because he didnt need them and put them in Prison Island, in frantic four style, they break sonic out, just to generically fight him, sonic then defeats all 4 in the room in 1 hit with laughable ease, little did he know the 7 chaos emeralds would turn these zetis into complete machines, after breaking out of prison, he then runs through metal harbour and about 50 seconds into the level, he grabs onto a GUN rocket, which they fired intentionally for sonic to grab on, when sonic grabs on it, he then tricks them by jumping off the rocket and running down a slope which leads to the loop and goal ring, but then, as we are introduced to elise having a girly conversation at the tokyo market about stealing at the clothes store nearby, however, eggman with his new machine, then teleports elise to brazil, a very confused elise then goes through rio de janeiro at brazillian bossanova, then the Egg Teleporter then sends all the other characters he saw on his way, and all 10 then formed an alliance from then on, tails on his emerald locator saw 3 chaos emeralds in the jungle, and that eggman will probably go after them (this proved to be false and dumb, and tails got told to shut up again by sonic, and eggman would then say that he tricked them and left the emeralds there as bait in the cutscene before the g-merl and egg genesis fight), Knuckles, Tikal and Maria Robotnik then all agree to find the 3 emeralds, Knuckles going into the part of the jungle with the ancient ruins and paradise birds, but some paradise birds are eggman robots, Tikal needs to find 3 hidden keys near the waterfall, she then rescues chao and finds the 2nd chaos emerald, then maria then gets found by GUNs brazillian department, and since she is wanted by GUN thanks to shadow (who explains in the earlier cutscene that he is NOT a villain and that GUN are mistaken), and her level is full of egg gunners she needs to avoid, and collect as many rings as she can, since she cannot defeat the enemies without help (which you can actually find in a hidden point, shadow will actually help maria and will home in on enemies trying to attack her, she then finds the 3rd emerald after a very long run from the military, and all 3 emeralds are gathered, until eggman says that they were bait to find out what new robot is there, eggman said that he found g-merl in the area, all rusty and unused, eggman then saw its power and super-charged it, going completely crazy and evil, then sonic has to battle g-merl and the egg genesis, only to find out that after that, eggman then sets mephiles on 2 of the characters, sonic and shadow, annoyed, they both team up to find them, with sonic going to find an emerald in crisis city to warp back home while shadow is at flame core trying to find the other, but before they get to, mephiles then grabs both emeralds, and then supercharges himself, however, after shadow gets FULL chaos boost, you then homing attack him 6 times and he only has 2 hits left, then sonic comes to help and then you have to do 2 simple homing attacks to knock out both emeralds, they then warp with the emeralds to go back to brazil to pick up the others, they then all warp with the 5 emeralds power, they then go back to tokyo, but the egg carrier is back causing mischief, and the only way to stop them is by finding the computer room and shutting down all stuff, but when they find out nothing worked, its because G-Merl and Metal Sonic teamed up to hack the system and that Tails and Waves efforts were pointless, erazor then comes out of nowhere, kidnaps shahra, who was there at the digital dimension, who secretly followed them the entire time, wanting to be like them, Blaze then finds emerald 6 at skeleton dome while sonic goes to the night palace to find emerald 7, however, he finds erazor djinn, in the first phase, you just need to homing attack him 6 times, but then, with the 7 emeralds, he turns into alf layla wa layla and goes berserk, sonic then turns into darkspine sonic and you have to use the action gauge up to defeat him both times, sonic then knocks all emeralds out of him, and catches them all, then it cuts to E-123 persuing mephiles at the wave ocean, after failing to do so and shadow having to pump him up with a chaos drive, he then gets super charged and goes after mephiles at wave ocean, after reaching the goal ring, there is then another cutscene showing that mephiles has had enough of E-123 and that hell destroy the entire world, he then tries to drown E-123 in his own darkness and turns his mini-mes into giant monsters, after each of the 3 monsters get defeated, you then shoot mephiles in the face 8 times until he is dead, then the other 9 are shown in Tokyo while E-123 is dealing with the enemies at a nearby city named Otonokizaka, they then see the egg carrier flying by with everyone shocked at the attack, maria robotnik bravely steps forward, with shadow agreeing to help her, once again, you have to find him in a secret location and then shadow will home in on the enemies, then after that, shadow then goes across the sky deck, defeating the enemies with his chaos powers, only to find out eggman cloned g-merl and there is 10 of them, he calls this new group "the ultimate g-merl force" and shadow then has to defeat 9 of them to use his chaos boost on the real g-merl, then phase 2 of the fight will start and hell start shooting at you and you have to hit him 10 times for him to die, then sonic thanks shadow and maria for their help before finding out that the 7th chaos emerald was foolishly lying there, but then eggman steals all 7 with his machine and powers up the frantic four, they then become super charged and sonic then has to homing attack on each frantic four member 8 times each for the boss battle to end, then sonic and friends celebrate that all emeralds are obtained
== Plot for Honey the Cat, Rouge the Bat and Silver ==
Rouge was too busy staring at the jewellery one day, saying that she wants to become a master jewel thief, silver thinks this is wrong and tries to beat her up with her psychokinesis, in rouges story, this is the other way round as she throws her bombs at silver, then honey the cat, who is too busy vibing to rock music with shadow, finds out about rouge and silver fighting and tells them to stop and look at the egg carrier, then rouge explores the egg carrier, she finds 3 keys, and finds the 1st chaos emerald, until it got out of her hand and teleported to brazil as bait, which eggman used with his Egg Teleporter, but says she is happy with finding the jewellery, later on, she is seen going through hang castle and kingdom valley to find more emeralds, but both times, they went through the egg teleporter, then silver tells her to not worry and that they will find those emeralds, they then get teleported by eggman through the egg teleporter to brazil, and honey is asked to find the 3 emeralds they found on rouges jewellery radar, they then go to the Jungle Ruins to find it, only to find out sonic and friends have already found it and that eggman was tricking them with fakes, honey the cat then fights G-Merl and the Egg Genesis, then, honey is frustrated that they found no emeralds, silver tells them to cheer up and that more adventures are ahead of them, all 3 then hold hands and look at the sunset
