When he first debuted, Shadow the Hedgehog wanted everyone to know only two things about himself: that he was the “ultimate life form” and that he would have his revenge. The second point was pretty readily understandable considering his backstory, but this whole “ultimate life form” business just seemed delusional. Sonic easily matched him blow for blow, calling his “ultimate-ness” into question. With all the new abilities Shadow has in Sonic X Shadow Generations, though, perhaps he can finally and definitively back that claim up.
In addition to his speed, homing teleport and Chaos Control, Shadow also has a new set of “Doom” powers that make him even more deadly. The first of these is Doom Spear, which appears to be an upgraded form of Chaos Spear from Sonic Adventure 2. This new form of the attack can hit and destroy up to five enemies in front of Shadow and appears to be something he can use at will rather than having to collect enough rings first.
Next, there’s Doom Blast. It’s not so much an explosive attack as it is a means to launch enemies into the air and then use them as a projectile against whatever Shadow...
