Here are some Easter Eggs related to certain Palettes. Palette #16, ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION 000E0X0E0, is not as advertised in either his regular or Super Sonic palettes. Rather, it's a reference to multiple Sonic.exe creepypastas (note the three letters in between all those zeroes), with the initial palette being based on Lord X, before he switches to a more stereotypical Sonic.exe palette in-game- he has a unique starting pose using the initial palette. Curiously, he is also the only Sonic Palette to _never_ use Super Sonic's spritework- even if you transform using the Chaos Emeralds Buddy, Rune M or select the Super Sonic Palette, he will retain normal Sonic's spritework. Speaking of, Palette 16 also has a unique mini face-icon for at the end of a battle, different from all the other versions. Palette #20, False Chaos and Rage, is unique in that you cannot select the Super Sonic Palette with him. Rather, whenever he enters boost mode (or transforms, if you're using Rune M or the Chaos Emeralds buddy), his spritework will change to that of Super Sonic, as he's based off of the Dark Super Sonic seen in Sonic X. Palette #21, It's him, has a unique sound effect for performing tricks off of landed hits, that being the taunt sound effect from Pizza Tower. This makes sense, considering that said palette is referencing Snick from Pizza Tower. Uniquely to Palette #0, Blue Blur (The default), if you use his Super Sonic Palette and then transform using the Chaos Emeralds Buddy, he will become Hyper Sonic. The other Palettes that can choose to play as Super Sonic will instead merely get Hyper Sonic's rainbow-coloured aura (EXCEPT the exe palette, which instead has its color locked on whatever color the aura was when Sonic finished transforming). This is also possible if you equip both Rune M and the Chaos Emeralds Buddy, then transform using the Emeralds' Double Jump first (which will fail to turn Sonic into Super Sonic), then Rune M's taunt to transform. Then, you can use Rune M's taunt to transform _again_ into Hyper Sonic. Lastly, a tip: Sonic can actually get crazy distance from his up special! First, you use his up special, then use your down special into the rainbow ring, which will fling you further into the air. From there, Sonic can also perform a trick during the ascent's animation to get even more additional airtime.
what the hell, the character has a lot of references!! also damn, this is how you make a damn good move set without being just boring kicks and punches like in smash
Wish getting through it wasn't as tiresome at times though, there's only so many emerl and gamma copies fights i can take in a row before feeling like I'm losing my mind
He’s so flashy and dynamic! Definitely one of my favourites, only held back by the bias towards Adventure era/Advance stuff. I’m especially a fan of his Boost mechanic, Up Special and Trick- those are GREAT!
You can go Dark by using the Fake Chaos pallete, as your Boost meter now transforms you. You can go Hyper by starting the fight as Super and equipping the Chaos Emeralds buddy to transform again.
It should be noted that for the Fake Chaos Palette, filling the boost meter DOESN'T transform you if you have the Chaos Emeralds buddy active, as you instead need to use those to go Dark.
Would've been nice to have a Hyper Sonic pallet for Super Sonic where he flashes colors. Eh, can't win them all I guess. Hope you do other Sonic characters in the future.
you can use the chaos emeralds (music) buddy with super sonic to use hyper sonic (i think you can go in abyss to turn on use super sonic as super sonic to get hyper i havent tried yet)
This is Sick af one of my favourite looking ones yet, But I feel like Super Sonic should always be in the "boost" state considering hes yaknow Super Sonic On top of changing his up special to maybe a flying boost upwards since Super can fly and doesnt need a rainbow ring.
this looks pretty sick, idk how i feel about the gradual increase in speed for movement tho. but other than that you've done a great job, keep up the work (nice sonic battle intro reference btw)
I absolutely love the fact that you referenced Scourge, Lilac, and Spark in the pallets menu! Wait, what if you could actually include those characters into the game?
@averagetemp3014 There aren't any videos of Scourge in Rivals as far as I'm aware. There's multiple Lilacs in Workshop though the one I did (Remastered) is the only one with custom sprites, but only has a single video showcasing the mod (made by Bloody_Foxy) and there's a Spark which you can easily find by searching "Rivals of Aether Spark" on TH-cam. I don't think I can post links in TH-cam comments.
Fun fact: there are 2 types of super sonic in this character, 1 is the skin which is just cosmetic & the other is an abyss rune which actually buffs sonic when he transforms, adds a rings mechanic, makes opponents drop rings by hitting them & makes you lose 1 per second as super sonic, i wonder if by combining both type of super sonic if you turn into hyper sonic though
Believe it or not, when one masters Bar Kun's Sonic, he is a comboing menace. His neutral air is pretty much a juggle move if one immediately descends after the first hit, then a small hop, then the neutral air, then the descent, rinse and repeat till hard to reach. I can also do a combo of forward air > D-tilt > U-tilt > and if possible, the neutral air juggle technique He's very powerful if you master him
Apparently sonic has 2 super sonics, the costume you used & an actual super sonic transformation from 1 of the abyss runes But i wonder if using the transformation version while in the costume version would be hyper sonic🤔
@BladeSpeedDemon95 yeah let's hope they just keep getting better and better and I hope the creator of this sonic makes a shadow and silver because there aren't any really good mods for them
@@BladeSpeedDemon95that’s my brother(literally), he found something interesting on the “ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION” palette (I won’t spoil the surprise if you have already seen it)
While I love the mod overall, I was kinda disappointed there's absolutely nothing referencing frontiers, no cyber sonic skin, no sage skin, no super sonic 2/full power super sonic, nothing. I even would've settled for something like different attacks when playing as super sonic that are from frontiers...
10:31 Goated reference. Easily my favorite interaction in the comics

I love everything about this, the Boost mechanic, moves inspired by Sonic Advance and Sonic Battle, the insta-shield n-air, it's all great.
what the hell, the character has a lot of references!! also damn, this is how you make a damn good move set without being just boring kicks and punches like in smash
This may not mean nothing but I love your intro. Sonic battle is mad under-rated
Facts
Wish getting through it wasn't as tiresome at times though, there's only so many emerl and gamma copies fights i can take in a row before feeling like I'm losing my mind
@@Josuh true knuckles story got reeeal exhausting
He’s so flashy and dynamic! Definitely one of my favourites, only held back by the bias towards Adventure era/Advance stuff. I’m especially a fan of his Boost mechanic, Up Special and Trick- those are GREAT!
What’s wrong with having more Dreamcast Era themed attacks?
@@metaknightjudgesyoursins4710 Nothing really! It's just a personal thing that I'm more bias to things outside that era.
I mean, advance sonic is 32bit, for a game with 32bit graphics you would expect them to use advance sonic
@@floydwabag Ok? I'm talking about the moveset.
@@heehomgee4671 his moveset would be expected to be like that too if he looks like he’s from the advanced games
You can go Dark by using the Fake Chaos pallete, as your Boost meter now transforms you.

But what is the endless abyss skin all about???
@@isabelfranqui3504 It's a generic Rivals of Aether skin based on the palettes of the minions you fight in Abyss Mode.
i'm glad you like the mod! thanks for showcasing it! 😄
Yooo it's the man himself 🔥
Do you plan on doing any of the other characters like Tails or Blaze??
PLEASE BAR KUN MAKE A SHADOW JUST LIKE THIS
Seeing Super Sonic Vs. Eggman really felt like a Sonic Battle sequel. Really cool.
need emerl so we can have a 15 second 10 round fight
This should have been the ssbu sonic
Finally a good fucking sonic that isnt speed stat boosted to hell
"I grow stronger with every second!"
-Sonic
The choas skin is named big drip 10/10 best aether mod.
Better sonic than the one we got in smash
With how much better sonic is here than in smash should be a crime, he literally sucks in smash, they should’ve done him more justice
Not a high bar anymore 😂
Blud got instant karma at 15:01 💀
I like your intro, it's simplistic but I love Sonic Battle so much so I appreciate it. This also looks fun
Would've been nice to have a Hyper Sonic pallet for Super Sonic where he flashes colors. Eh, can't win them all I guess. Hope you do other Sonic characters in the future.
you can use the chaos emeralds (music) buddy with super sonic to use hyper sonic (i think you can go in abyss to turn on use super sonic as super sonic to get hyper i havent tried yet)
It would also be cool to have a cyber super sonic palette
Holy crap this is smooth! If Sega could do it well, a sonic platform fighter would be sick.
hell yeah! ive been waiting for someone to make a video about this character since it came out :]
the animations are so CLEAN!!
Linklight will like this mod so much as more than me. I like sonic + sprites and moveset EPIC!
He’s always my favorite character.
Didnt think theyd reference spark as a skin but im here for it
These sprites for all these Sonic characters are some of my favorite ever
This is absolutely one of the most beautiful Sonic mod for Rivals of Aether. I love all Heroes references 😍😍
YES YES THEY DID THEY MADE THE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG MOD TYSM GUYS!!!
Finally someone made a good ROA sonic
Gotta love that exe skin they even maked a special inyro for him what a nice mod :v
Love the name references in his alternate colors, very cool
This is Sick af one of my favourite looking ones yet, But I feel like Super Sonic should always be in the "boost" state considering hes yaknow Super Sonic On top of changing his up special to maybe a flying boost upwards since Super can fly and doesnt need a rainbow ring.
A 2000s inspired Sonic with Sonic eagle? That's a -2 for sure.
I know Sonic Frontier moves when I see them, cause I have unlocked all of them, and have the Sonic Adventure 2 Shoes.
this looks pretty sick, idk how i feel about the gradual increase in speed for movement tho. but other than that you've done a great job, keep up the work (nice sonic battle intro reference btw)
I didn't make the mod tho... Just showcasing them! :)
@@BladeSpeedDemon95 oh my fault, I should've done more research on who made it, apologies! ;P
@@VITALIXX You're fine! Not the first time people thought that. It's just a silly mistake lol
I absolutely love the fact that you referenced Scourge, Lilac, and Spark in the pallets menu! Wait, what if you could actually include those characters into the game?
Lilac and Spark are both already in Rivals. Scourge too but it's a sprite rip.
@@Aperson-62 Wait, really? Could you send me a video showcasing the mod?

I don't think I can post links in TH-cam comments.
Worth noting I was going to make a video showcasing them all fighting but ran into some recording slowdown issues.
@@Aperson-62 Oh. Thanks for letting me know!(btw, you can post links in TH-cam comments).
This looks sick!! Also it would be cool if u added the option to switch between the other english sonic voice actors
I kinda hope you woulda shown the insperation for the color change alts as well. i got most of them but a good handful had me confused.
Fun fact: there are 2 types of super sonic in this character, 1 is the skin which is just cosmetic & the other is an abyss rune which actually buffs sonic when he transforms, adds a rings mechanic, makes opponents drop rings by hitting them & makes you lose 1 per second as super sonic, i wonder if by combining both type of super sonic if you turn into hyper sonic though
I love how his hand does a figure 8 on his forward strong

He's very powerful if you master him
Got more of a completed moveset than smash sonic. This is what i wish he had
ngl this kinda reminds me of smash remix sonic mostly cuz you can be super sonic with the same moveset
10:46 *PURPLE HOG*
i love this sonic
He got an update to make him compatible with the Chaos Emeralds Buddy, so now he can go Super Sonic
Welp I just found my new favorite rivals of aether mod
10:41
A normal Sonic rivals of aether mod
LETS GOOOOO I FINALLY FOUND A WAY FOR RIVALS MODS TO WORKYESSS!!
12:12 why do you don't maked he a Dark Sonic?
For pallets I can't go past #15 is there a way to fix that?
Finally, a Sonic that has a bounce attack as it's down special
Wait i got a question how do you get the exe skin
Request Battle: Sonic The Hedgehog VS Peppino Spaghetti
muchas gracias
10:52 this is a keqing reference????😮😮
Plz idk what you need but I need you to make a shadow one 👾it has to be done there hasn’t been a shadow one in so long
Everytime I see videos like this it makes me sigh knowing how lackluster his moveset actually is
Long Time no see
Yo man! Long time no see indeed! How have you been?
@@BladeSpeedDemon95 I've been good been playing alot of vrchat hby
Apparently sonic has 2 super sonics, the costume you used & an actual super sonic transformation from 1 of the abyss runes
But i wonder if using the transformation version while in the costume version would be hyper sonic🤔
Now this is awesome
This video was awesome I would love if u could do a silver the hedgehog mod
I wish I have a gague on my hud.
This is so cool
Let’s gooo sonic number 12532627525637256274 is now playable
At least he's better than the others lol.
This moveset in ssf2
Hope we get a frontiers sonic soon cause these sonic mods are getting good
Maybe! Only time will really tell with how many Sonic mods there are currently
Maybe! Only time will really tell with how many Sonic mods there are currently

@BladeSpeedDemon95 yeah let's hope they just keep getting better and better and I hope the creator of this sonic makes a shadow and silver because there aren't any really good mods for them
Hi guys
I downloaded this mod today and for some reason I can't select any pallete past the 8th one
Any ideas?
This happens to every rivals mod, it's just a rivals bug. I don't think it's fixable unfortunately
FINALLY!!!!
I wish the super Lord X alt made him the real Lord X. Would've been more fitting.
bro this is better than smashes sonk
I genuinely wished you showed the illegal instruction skin
The wha?
@BladeSpeedDemon95 the one with yellow smile. By that I meant the color scheme
@@BladeSpeedDemon95that’s my brother(literally), he found something interesting on the “ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION” palette (I won’t spoil the surprise if you have already seen it)
It based of sonic rum hack of exe. File 🗃️🗄️ from mega man exe. Bladespeeddemon
Wooooow i like that
finally
While I love the mod overall, I was kinda disappointed there's absolutely nothing referencing frontiers, no cyber sonic skin, no sage skin, no super sonic 2/full power super sonic, nothing. I even would've settled for something like different attacks when playing as super sonic that are from frontiers...
STOP ALL THAT..sigh .. I miss sonic advance and sonic chronicles
No Sonichu skin?
