There's a route called "power of love" that has you start evil, and upon meeting Rouge in level 2, you go pure good, with the exception of going neutral on prison island, which i think is hilarious. It simultaneously implies that not only is the sheer sight of Rouge enough to make Shadow turn good, but that not even the "power of love" is strong enough to make you want to put up with Charmy.

The sheer amount of times Shadow helps someone and completely ignores/goes against someone else on a stage only to end up arguing with/fighting the one he helped in the next cutscene while the helper he did nothing for acts like they're Shadow's buddy is insane in these routes

@@bloopahVIII The only time he actually win, but didn't appreciate it was in IDW Publishing, after he vomits the Zombot Virus all over the place and Dr. Starline wondered what is up with the Doctor.
Bro it gets worse! In Westopolis, Sonic TELLS you to homing attack along the GUN bots to progress, but then immediately scolds you for doing what he advised.
Its not required to progress, thats the whole point of the game, youre either good, neutral or evil. Whenever a mission state is complete you automaticly complete the level, the neutral mission state complete is just touching the diamond at the end.
Glad to see this game has a dedicated speedrunning community. I mean, it's a Sonic game so I guess I shouldn't really be surprised, but this game is kinda notorious for being a bit tedious to 100% even in just normal play, so I applaud the passion and effort it must require to take on such a task.
Following the paths actually leads to decent stories, but when you deviate it leads to the most nonsensical stories. The first path you did has Shadow completely ditch both the president and black doom because he randomly thinks he's an android. 😂
@@KaiserRika I always though it more in the line of : There is the bad guy, which of us get the emeralds to kick his ass? Well, lets have a friendly battle about it. Diablon : Barging into the fight, attacking Shadow, With both being hella confused about what he was doing there
There are a variety of glitches and exploits in play here to make the run come together. He's also running the GameCube version, which is known to be the most stable in terms of framerate, and as such, is faster. Infinite Chaos Control This can be done in any stage that allows you to fil up your blue gauge by any means, which will allow you to use Chaos Control. This works best for stages that are more or less linear in nature. Once done, find the nearest save point and press the X and Y buttons simultaneously. Under normal circumstances, the Y button is used to activate Chaos Control, and the X button is used to open up the save point interface. If done correctly, you can use Chaos Control for as long as the game will allow. Infinite Ammo Exploit When either the red or blue gauges are full, Shadow will enter a special state that allows him to use a Chaos Power. This also has two other effects: invincibility and infinite ammo. Infinite ammo will also be granted with an invincibility powerup. Infinite ammo not only allows one to chew through masses of enemies quickly, but they can also take down bosses at blazing speed. Since you're invincible at the same time (unless you fall into a pit or, in same cases, run out of time), there is literally no risk to these strategies. Lethal Highway Tank Exploit On the theme of invincibility and infinite ammo, this can also be used to quickly take down the tank on Lethal Highway to complete the hero mission. What the runner does is that he breaks open a GUN crate early on to pick up a rifle. There's an item box above the slope immediately afterwards, which just so happens to cycle through a few random items. The runner waits for a particular part of the item cycle, where he shoots when the invincibility power up is shown. From here, the infinite ammo buff is active, and he chews through as much of the tank's health as possible before the invincibility wears off. Once that happens, he jumps off the edge and kills himself, and because he didn't touch any save points through this whole operation, he restarts at the beginning of the stage. The main thing he put into consideration is that the tank's remaining health carries over on death (unless you get a game over), meaning he can just repeat the process to finish the job and get a quick A rank. A similar process is also used for the Dark Mission in Air Fleet Abusing Invincibility Frames This works in a number of situations, but it's particularly useful in Air Fleet. Air Fleet has small sections of electrified rails which would normally require you to use the saucer that can only be obtained by getting all five keys. However, by hurting himself when jumping on the rails, he can use the invincibility frames provided to grind the rest of the way and jump to the section just below. You would normally have to go all the way around, meaning this method saves a lot of time. Since you only lose 10 rings per hit, this can be done with minimal risk provided you have plenty of rings.
If you're good enough, you can destroy the Black Alien Ship before running out of ammo. On the inside of the right turn, there are 2 crates that will give you the same kind of ammo as you picked up before getting the invincibility item. In the Black Comet Diablon fight, there is a cycling item container that if you manage to get the invincibility while holding a gun, you can beat the boss before it runs out.
Also I just discovered: to cancel Chaos Control, hold down X until it stops. Edit: Actually you keep pressing X until it does. Sometimes it will stop immediately like in Iron Jungle, but sometimes you'll have to keep mashing it, like in Prison Island and Final Haunt.
This is funny to me because until recently I have had no desire to 100% this game and unlock Expert mode, but I have had my save file for this game on my GameCube since I was little, so I already have hundreds of hours in this game just by replaying story mode over and over.

In Iron Jungle Hero, I always leave two enemies alive at the start so my Hero gauge fills up at 5:29:36, then I can just finish it there without needing to go to the turret.
Yeah, I did that too and was able to complete the mission right when my ammo ran out. Even speedrunners can make mistakes. I only tested it out to see if it would work, but I just use the Shadow Rifle.
@@AkameGaKillfan777 Yet it's being used constantly in this speedrun. You be surprised how much acceleration you get with when you need it for the tight ass jumped to do in this game. Even multiplayer it helps avoiding gun fair and giving you a smaller amount of hurtbox.
There's a glitch in this game where if you activate Chaos Control in the Black Bull boss, turning it on and off repeatedly, the Black Bull disappears, kind of softlocking the game. I say kinda, because if you run around the stage enough he eventually reappears. You have to do it while he is turning away after getting hit with a gun.
and it delivered, shadow generations is easily the best sonic game since mania(and not counting that it’s arguably better than any other 3d boost game by virtue of having zero bad levels and as good level design as the best of the rest)
4:30:00 Imagine hearing the news that Air Force One was shot down and finding out it was caused by an angsty hedgehog with a gun that shoots disembodied Omochao heads.
This is a speedrun so it has a high skill level, it has all A ranks so it involves getting as many A ranks as possible in 10 routes, it has all key collections, and it even includes cutscenes. (the repeat gets skipped), And the last story is included! This video has it all!

Shadow may be slippery, but Shadow's levels are fully 3D compared to the 2D garbage that is the majority of Colours. Colours is a glorified mobile game like Sonic 4,
I actually like this game more than most, but it always bothered me how limited the final bosses were. It's either Egg Dealer, Black Doom or Sonic and Diablon. Heck, there's no ending where you side with Eggman even though you'd think that'd be in there.
I also hate how where Eggman is concerned, the mission you take has no bearing on that particular plot thread, you always end up fighting him over the Emerald; it is literally impossible to side with him. Cryptic Castle, Mad Matrix, Iron Jungle and Lava Shelter, even when you do what he asks Shadow still betrays him. That really does seem like lazy writing.
The level menu, with how you colored it, kinda looks like some sort of nuclear weapon. The green is the fuel, the red is heated areas, and the blue is cooled areas.
It's starting from a fresh save file and the game only allows you to skip cutscenes after you've seen them at least once, so the first time you end up at a stage you're forced to sit through the scene.
This is US Gamecube version. I believe Sonic will only say damn when you fail the Hero Mission, which is not quite the same as completing the Dark Mission.
@@Antonio-is2cn well a blue hedgehog fighting an egg shaped scientist is absolutely not out of place for sonic at all since that's what happens in almost every sonic game

The run requires a new game save. The game will not allow you to skip cutscenes until it has been viewed once. So initially yes, but later on you will see that I do skip cutscenes when I can.
100% in this case would mean unlockables or items / data points that perist between game sessions on the save file. If I understand you correctly, picking up and using normal items don't count for that as they don't have any effect on the save file.
@@EvilMariobotwell the starting layout is so simple anyone could get something like this up in MS Paint in a half hour tops. What's not so quick or simple is the dynamic elements that allow me to use this in real-time during my live streams without needing to edit in stuff after.
Why the hell do people still assume Shadow’s an android when the same game that they assume confirmed it also has several endings where Shadow concludes he’s the original. And as the other guy said: the game itself offers direct confirmation that Shadow survived SA2 in the final boss.

One of my favourite games of all time despite the flaws
I really watched this all in one seating. This game looks neat to run, routing out which paths to take in the story seems a bit annoying though
Yeah honestly I don't like the game but it seems pretty fun to speedrun
It's all up to your imagination. After all, there are 326 possible story paths to choose from.
@@SegaMegadrive It's not fun, but it is fun?
So much edginess ☠️🦔
But I love the music!
Have you seen a real black hedgehog trying to obliterate a real snake. I bet it was Shadow!
“Hmm, ‘the promised time’ huh? Well then, timw to go and fulfill this promise.”
"Sheen, this is the 10th time you've told the class you're going to fulfill whatever 'the promised time' is."
In Iron Jungle Hero, I always leave two enemies alive at the start so my Hero gauge fills up at 5:29:36, then I can just finish it there without needing to go to the turret.
Yeah, I did that too and was able to complete the mission right when my ammo ran out. Even speedrunners can make mistakes.
I only tested it out to see if it would work, but I just use the Shadow Rifle.
I have a new appreciation for the spin dash in this game
Still only gives you the illusion of momentum though.
@@AkameGaKillfan777 Yet it's being used constantly in this speedrun. You be surprised how much acceleration you get with when you need it for the tight ass jumped to do in this game. Even multiplayer it helps avoiding gun fair and giving you a smaller amount of hurtbox.
@@selassieaspen9940 Your point?
There's a glitch in this game where if you activate Chaos Control in the Black Bull boss, turning it on and off repeatedly, the Black Bull disappears, kind of softlocking the game. I say kinda, because if you run around the stage enough he eventually reappears. You have to do it while he is turning away after getting hit with a gun.
I never tried that, since I only figured out how to cancel Chaos Control recently. I typically just use it right before the final hit on Doom.
Dude love this game needs a sequel. Miss Griffith too.
SEGA team is now planning the next game involving Shadow the Hedgehog after "Sonic Superstars".
Thats right! The Sonic Generations remake!
and it delivered, shadow generations is easily the best sonic game since mania(and not counting that it’s arguably better than any other 3d boost game by virtue of having zero bad levels and as good level design as the best of the rest)
30 minutes in and my brain already went through five meltdowns
Five meltdowns? Well, you know what they say...
4:30:00 Imagine hearing the news that Air Force One was shot down and finding out it was caused by an angsty hedgehog with a gun that shoots disembodied Omochao heads.
Remember guys if someone asks you a question you set off explosions all over the area and make a clean get away lol
I think a flawless run with maximum skips, no mistakes could be 5:20:00
And no game crashes
56:41
Chances are, Team Chaotix is probably trying to hack Eggman’s computer so they could leak his nudes on Twitter.
This is a speedrun so it has a high skill level, it has all A ranks so it involves getting as many A ranks as possible in 10 routes, it has all key collections, and it even includes cutscenes. (the repeat gets skipped), And the last story is included! This video has it all!
Fortunately no chao was harmed in this video
The ones in Cryptic Castle got lucky
This game probably took me 40 hours. I didn't like flying on the animals, but I especially hated the tech level where u have to go in circles for days to find all 30 bombs.
I can't believe this was done under 6 hours.
That's honestly the game at its absolute worst
God this game was a mess and the story made no sense but it was fun as shit
Love this! This game is underrated and over-hated this game is better than forces,colors boom with great voice acting ign are just bis morons
Forces and Boom, but not Colors
@@AkameGaKillfan777 colours is absolute dogshit in every way, from the wisps to to handling to the level design. Colours blows. Shadow's levels are fully 3D compared to the 2D garbage that is the majority of Colours. He may be slippery but compared the stiff and sluggish Sonic with garbage double jump. This games controls are y way, from the wisps to to handling to the level design. Colours blows. Shadow may be slippery, but Shadow's levels are fully 3D compared to the 2D garbage that is the majority of Colours. Colours is a glorified mobile game like Sonic 4,
@@flipside2086 Geez, 2D gameplay is that repulsive to you huh? Might want to visit a doctor for some Epipens if your allergy is THAT bad lmao

I actually like this game more than most, but it always bothered me how limited the final bosses were.
It's either Egg Dealer, Black Doom or Sonic and Diablon.
Heck, there's no ending where you side with Eggman even though you'd think that'd be in there.
I also hate how where Eggman is concerned, the mission you take has no bearing on that particular plot thread, you always end up fighting him over the Emerald; it is literally impossible to side with him. Cryptic Castle, Mad Matrix, Iron Jungle and Lava Shelter, even when you do what he asks Shadow still betrays him. That really does seem like lazy writing.

4:06 shadow killing people and sonic is just getting dragged along for the ride
2:29:18 Where did Vector come from?! I know he was apart of the previous level, but still!
You are good af
Dang when going through the neutral routes the game becomes Kirby Air Ride.
I wanted you to make you like the end of Super Shadow!
The level menu, with how you colored it, kinda looks like some sort of nuclear weapon. The green is the fuel, the red is heated areas, and the blue is cooled areas.
Hey BlazinZzetti quick question how did you make that level map on the top left corner of the screen?
Beautiful
This is like taking candy from a baby! which is fine by me!
the eye roll at 1:33:47 lool
are u emulating or playing this on an actual gamecube?
Didn't think ppl we running this game very impressed with the dedication
And... Who os this Maria?
Doesn’t Space Gadget Dark lead to Lava Shelter?
best spindash.
Guys he found the computer room!!!!
Magoo
are you forced to watch cutscenes not seen in a Speedrun?
I always assumed theyd skip the cutscenes to speed things up
It's starting from a fresh save file and the game only allows you to skip cutscenes after you've seen them at least once, so the first time you end up at a stage you're forced to sit through the scene.
What version of the game is this? Didnt know there was one where sonic didnt say damn if you did the dark mission of lethal highway
This is US Gamecube version. I believe Sonic will only say damn when you fail the Hero Mission, which is not quite the same as completing the Dark Mission.
@@BlazinZzetti thanku
The mission map reminds me of Darius
Why does everyone hate this game I don’t at all
The fuck are these comments?
@@AkameGaKillfan777 Beauty itself.
@@Antonio-is2cn well a blue hedgehog fighting an egg shaped scientist is absolutely not out of place for sonic at all since that's what happens in almost every sonic game
What program are you using to visualize the paths in the top left?
The game is good but going to the first stage multiple times is annoying just to unlock the last story
oh hell yes
2:43:01 checkpoint
Whats the wr for all library entries 😭
Do you ever show off what’s behind the locked doors in this game? Or are those secrets too far out of the way?
Most of the time they are not useful for the speedrun. Especially for this run where some stages only get played the minimum amount of time. Check out the speedrun.com page for this game and you can find a leaderboard for each level where the doors may be used.
Westopolis: Vehicle with a gun
Digital Circuit: Alternate cyber routes with rings and item containers
Glyphic Canyon: Alternate path with a Black Volt where you can beat more black aliens and ballons with power-ups
Lethal Highway: Gatling Gun which can destroy the black alien escape pod quickly
Cryptic Castle: Small Shortcut
Prison Island: Tank Cannon from an allegedly unused G.U.N. machine enemy
Central City: Saucer which moves better over the toxic slime than the vehicles
The Doom: Shortcut out in space that leads to the goal ring
Sky Troops: Same as Glyphic Canyon
Mad Matrix: Path that leads straight to the tower where the goal ring is
Death Ruins: Alternate path with rings and item containers
The Ark: 3 extra lives
Air Fleet: Saucer that allows you to safely move on the electric grind rails without taking damage, a special weapons crate, a different kind of gun, and a few item containers
Iron Jungle: Same as Prison Island, useful for Eggman's airship
Space Gadget: warp to the goal ring
Lost Impact: vehicle
G.U.N Fortress: Alternate path with vehicle that has rings and item containers
Black Comet: Turrets to take down the flying saucers
Lava Shelter: Saucer that can move over the lava and take you through a different path with rings and item containers
Cosmic Fall: Switch that activates ring paths that you can use to instantly finish either mission, though you can lock onto and activate it with the Satellite Laser from the Special Weapons crate without needing all 5 keys
Final Haunt: Same as Black Comet
The Last Way: warp through part of the stage
Most based speedrun 😂😂😂
Question: are you required to not skip the cutscenes?
The run requires a new game save. The game will not allow you to skip cutscenes until it has been viewed once. So initially yes, but later on you will see that I do skip cutscenes when I can.
Was it painful?
Isn't collecting all items mandatory to make 100% of this game?
100% in this case would mean unlockables or items / data points that perist between game sessions on the save file. If I understand you correctly, picking up and using normal items don't count for that as they don't have any effect on the save file.
What are the white circles on the map I forgot what they mean or are they mini boss fights.
Yeah they are bosse fights.
100%? Like all possible routes???
There are exactly 100 comments here. It’s kind of funny that I’m comment #101 asking a question, but what is RTA?
Real Time Attack. Basically starting and stopping a timer like a stopwatch.
Is that the chart I made for raocow's LP in the corner, there?
No... It's a program I made and have worked on for the past 5 years for runs that require playing through the whole game.
@@BlazinZzetti Oh, okay. The blank chart layout just looks so eerily similar, though.
@@EvilMariobotwell the starting layout is so simple anyone could get something like this up in MS Paint in a half hour tops. What's not so quick or simple is the dynamic elements that allow me to use this in real-time during my live streams without needing to edit in stuff after.
@@BlazinZzetti Right. The one I made for that other guy didn't take long either.
wait this is a real game? omg

So, Shadow has been dead since the end of SA2 and this whole journey, you've been a copy of him from his DNA or smth?
No if you stall in the devil doom fight for 8 minutes eggman will tell shadow is the real shadow.
@@spingebill9962 so my Question is, how did a Weakened Shadow with no Emeralds Survive a Terminal Velocity descent to earth?
@@UCDitto "One of Eggman's robots caught him" is the only explaination we've ever been offered.
@@UCDitto Shadow was originally supposed to die and be gone forever at the end of SA2, but after so much fan requests, they decided to bring him back.
Why the hell do people still assume Shadow’s an android when the same game that they assume confirmed it also has several endings where Shadow concludes he’s the original. And as the other guy said: the game itself offers direct confirmation that Shadow survived SA2 in the final boss.
