@@tje604 hey you were right, their power is pretty low. Darn now I'm addicted to this game, I didn't realize it let you race others online. I'm already entered for the season and just started it yesterday. :)
I love how it really feels like they’re capitalising off they’re own advantages. Sonic lands more hits due to his slightly higher speed, while Shadow’s feel more devastating. Perfect example is Dark sonic landing that double combo, while Shadow essentially compensates with a flying kick with a huge wind up and the ground slam, which feels like the most impactful hit before the super forms
Trong Tran there was one done by someone that included both dark sonic and shadow. It was very good although, I’m not sure how well it holds up to today’s standards. Most of the best sprite fights came from Mario bros z tho but I’m sure if you dig around you’ll find some good ones.
Macesaru Ionel Dark Sonic is pretty much a negative form of super sonic, the pitch black version, which is supposedly faster and stronger w/o the other abilities. He uses it at 1:05
EVERYTHING WAS SO FAST AND FLUID! The choices for the sound effects was honestly the most satisfying thing about this video, it was just so...IMPACTFUL!
Wow… just wow. This is what a fight between two speedy hedgehogs should look like, amazing job to everyone who made this beautiful animation. I’m hyped for part 2!
i mean, this is a collab. aka done by multiple talented people. SMBZ was animated entirely by one guy. So i'd say Alvin/Mark (creator/animator of SMBZ) still wins on this cause its a big disadvantage for him.
Oh really? I didn't realize that, but now that you mention it I can see it (and not just because of the names at the top that I've only just noticed now).
I mean yeah, but it's something at least lol. Also in Sonic '06 Shadow has this fighting style where he does combo strings on enemies with homing attack. And when he fully charges -kaio-ken- Dark Shadow, he actually instant transmissions to enemies to do combos on them. Again it's not as cool, but it's definitely _possible_ Sonic Team could do this.
Sonic Team is always moving forward. We'll probably never get Dreamcast/Modern Sonic pixel sprites again. But we could get a Sonic fighting game. Who knows
A lot of sonic haters don't seem to realise how powerful Sonic and co. really are in the Archie comics. In the comics, Knuckles became a god of creation at one point, and Sonic's taken countless beatings from suppodedly planet-busting opponents without even turning Super Sonic.
Bla bla, I hate those guys who think Archie Sonic is like the only strong Sonic incarnation. They clearly lack knowledge on the main canon. Game Sonic has faced planet busting opponent's in base as well and multiversal beings in Super form
MAN! It is so good to see some good old fashioned sprite battles! Takes me right back to 2009 when I was in school and would desperately try to find any website that had anything to do with Sonic on it so I could watch these things.
i liked how the main focus was the combos, fast attacks, and counters, instead of all ust being one long combo followed by a big blast attack with all that, this is probably the best and probably the most accurate of what it should be a sonic vs shadow battle
This is the best Sonic vs Shadow animated fight, in my opinion, the animation is fluid, the sound effects and the power effects, and the sprite swap, this is awesome.
I enjoyed every second of this. Every animator was so amazing at making this collab. Definitely the best Sonic vs Shadow fight ever, and that gives me a feeling that part 2 will be better. Thanks for the vid :)
In all my years of watching so many sprite animations sonic related, this to me is by far the best one I've seen to date. the music, the various animation styles, and the overall feeling of it was exciting to me. great work to all who worked on this and Looking forward to part 2.
I'd rather Shadow be announced as an original fighter to be honest. And if for whatever reason they can't do that, I would like another Sonic character to be announced instead so _they_ can be an original fighter. I don't really want any Sonic echoes
Wow, that was fantastic animation. Really detailed attack sprites, fun references to other series, and brought out all the stops for their techniques AND even touched it up with a few quotes. "I'm the coolest"
Absolutely outstanding. I've always wanted to be a Sprite animator, but I've never really been able to get the hang of it. This is a legitimate masterpiece. Been a really long time since I've seen a Sonic Sprite battle, especially one this good. What program do you use? I'd really like to try to animate a Sprite battle.
4 years later and this is still the best Sonic animation I've seen
TRUE

What about Dark Sonic vs Metallix?
@@kendrickcannon5177another superb animation, but Dark sonic vs Metalix has nothing on this animations choreography.
The moments in which Shadow used his jet boots in mid-air were the best.

My inner 8 year old would have gone nuts back in the day over this. And I'm still going nuts today. Great job, everyone.
Rose Wode So Am I!!!
Been awhile since I've seen some good sprite battles including Sonic characters.
ikr,. the sonic sprites are one of my favorites to look at
Do you mean since super mario bros z or which sprite? Do you guys have any recommendations?
Trong Tran there was one done by someone that included both dark sonic and shadow. It was very good although, I’m not sure how well it holds up to today’s standards. Most of the best sprite fights came from Mario bros z tho but I’m sure if you dig around you’ll find some good ones.
Sonic is the best ok
i found the one i was talking about: ua-cam.com/video/JIuMdyMUwa4/v-deo.html
Dark Sonic? That's rare, Sweet Fight though, lot of abilities I've not seen in a long time.
Adonis Tenebrai same here
Dark sonic? I haven't heard that name in years
Damn, it really is rare to see Dark Sonic. I remember only seeing him in old sprite animations from a decade ago, though. Still so cool.
I don't know much about Sonic lore (I've only beat Sonic Mania) but I gotta say, Dark Sonic looks more 'shadow' than Shadow.
Macesaru Ionel Dark Sonic is pretty much a negative form of super sonic, the pitch black version, which is supposedly faster and stronger w/o the other abilities. He uses it at 1:05
This has to be the BEST sonic vs shadow fight i've ever seen
King Dice facts
Best Sonic you no like te clássic
Vote shadow for ultimate people
King Dice too bad sega's never ever going to make that happen because they're way too lazy to make the world's best sonic versus shadow fight ever
SAME
The best Sonic Vs Shadow fight ever. Freaking Incredible.
Michael Hon EVER!!
I agree 👍🏾
Woah! So powerful and action-packed!
Why I hit the thumbs up !
EVERYTHING WAS SO FAST AND FLUID! The choices for the sound effects was honestly the most satisfying thing about this video, it was just so...IMPACTFUL!

THIS!!!

Sonic is lit with them breakdance moves
Looks like Sonic knows capoeira too.
That was the most fire I have ever seen. Can't wait for Dragon Dance 2!
I hope you're all still working on part 2... because this was legendary
Dark SOnic reminded me of the early days of UA-cam when literally almost every Sonic flash fighting animation had Dark Sonic.
He was the top of the talk back then.
Yup. See sonic could’ve been this cool in smash but he’s just boring now.
Wow… just wow. This is what a fight between two speedy hedgehogs should look like, amazing job to everyone who made this beautiful animation.
I’m hyped for part 2!
That went from a mediocre back and forth to a fight that rivaled SMBZ greatness.
Noice.
Which fight rivaled this one? the battle royale in Yoshi's Island or When Mecha Sonic handed out some brooklyn beatdowns to the Axem Rangers?
i mean, this is a collab. aka done by multiple talented people. SMBZ was animated entirely by one guy. So i'd say Alvin/Mark (creator/animator of SMBZ) still wins on this cause its a big disadvantage for him.
Oh really? I didn't realize that, but now that you mention it I can see it (and not just because of the names at the top that I've only just noticed now).
@@noba04 not to mention it was many years before these new sprite apps were made
Aye a SMBZ fan
1:38 JETZ!! Making homing attacks cool again 😂😂 This whole animation is the coolest.
When both opponents pull out there mains
Fucking Amazing, I wish sonic and shadow fight like this in the games.
Shadow Estelle honestly they very well could
There was that one scene in Sonic X where Super Shadow and Sonic were flying around and beating each other up
@@gamejitzu Meh, not as great
I mean yeah, but it's something at least lol.

Unfortunately we have yet to watch Dragon's dance 2😢
My God...Could you imagine if Smash Sonic was like THIS?!
We can dream
I'll just put this here m.ua-cam.com/video/WaJNmifMlGA/v-deo.html
Seeing stuff like this just makes me realize....Sega could totally do a remaster of Sonic battle or Sonic the fighters....but they don’t want too
White Washed Imagine that
It would be something that even non-players of this franchise would jump on to play!!
Sonic Team is always moving forward. We'll probably never get Dreamcast/Modern Sonic pixel sprites again. But we could get a Sonic fighting game. Who knows

I love the fact that they added dark sonic in the mix
Ahhhh there’s nothing better than a classic sonic vs shadow 👍🏾
Nem fodendo que isso previu a luta do sonic vs shadow de sonic 3 kkkkkk
Que cinema
At the start
Sonic: Hey Shadow lets spar!
Shadow: I’m busy.
Sonic: You’re too slow!
Shadow: Grrr *Attacks*
Sonic: Knew this would work.
i liked how the main focus was the combos, fast attacks, and counters, instead of all ust being one long combo followed by a big blast attack
with all that, this is probably the best and probably the most accurate of what it should be a sonic vs shadow battle
Sometimes I forget that sonic is supposed to be fast. This is awesome.
Yeah he is like massively faster than light at base. This is the most epic fight ever and the best version of sonic and shadow.
This is the best Sonic vs Shadow animated fight, in my opinion, the animation is fluid, the sound effects and the power effects, and the sprite swap, this is awesome.

RyoBliTz Entertainment it should be metal sonic tbh
I'd rather Shadow be announced as an original fighter to be honest. And if for whatever reason they can't do that, I would like another Sonic character to be announced instead so _they_ can be an original fighter. I don't really want any Sonic echoes
OK...let's not say stupid shit we can't take back alright?
RyoBliTz Entertainment are you ok who hurt you?
Gaming Sensei they’re not gonna add additional playable sonic characters besides an echo since smash is primarily a Nintendo game
That was badass! Its not everyday you see great stuff like this!
Combat gods be like:
I have never like, comment, and subscribed to a channel so fast in my LIFE! I NEED PART 2 ASAP!
They should make a series on tv like DBZ but with sonic that would be the best

It would be epic

when he went dark sonic and hit him with that Ariel dance(Android 18 and 17 combo as well as 17 and Krillin combo off budokai 3) sonic should have won

we dont get blessed as much with these incredible sprite fights
Did anyone notice that Dark Sonics attack was Android 18 super attack
I love the impact of the blows here, THIS is what I want in a sprite battle!
Dragon dance! Seriously, I can't pick a favorite sonic song.
If this had been made today that punch at 0:56 would have sent shadow to minecraft
Bruh, Dark Sonic did android's 18 level 3/ultimate lol
I remember I used to watch these when I was a kid, great to see people are still making them at this high of quality
No sonic saying "I found you faker" 😢
Some of the best sprites and animation i've seen, the animations when they're in their ball form's espcially pleasing to look at, well done.
Here's my idea for Dragon's Dance 2: Sonic and Shadow join forces to defeat Storm King in the Space Colony Ark.
Wow, that was fantastic animation. Really detailed attack sprites, fun references to other series, and brought out all the stops for their techniques AND even touched it up with a few quotes.
"I'm the coolest"
