The original was actually just a reused sound clip from Perfect Chaos, which was just a distorted Godzilla roar. This version isn't a reused sound, so it sounds a little better, but I still like the SA2 version more.
Brave Gallade It’s absolutely water, based on how Cannon’s Core has an entire section about draining it. Yep, you take the Biolizard out of its natural aquatic habitat, leaving it barely able to shuffle its body around.
That's easy. Because Mammals have a built in growth limit, while reptiles like the Biolizard tend to grow without limit. That was actually one of the problems with the prototype, that it grew uncontrollably. As for why specifically a Hedgehog? Probably because all hedgehogs in Sonic's world are super fast.
Interesting remix of the original fight. The music here is much more upbeat, im assuming because sonic is the one fighting it this time. Since the original song was much more darker, eerie and had meaning since shadow is the one that fights it, experiment vs. experiment. also, the song name is 'Support Me' likely because of the fact that the only thing keeping biolizard alive(and also in extreme pain) is his support system on his back. Though also it could go hand in hand with the fact that shadow was now trying to help sonic, and keep his promise to maria to save the world~
It's true the biolizard just wanted kindness from the beginning. She was created to help people!!! The lyrics here are her asking Shadow to kill her because no one was ever good to her because she was a reptile. She suffered so horribly and she dies one of the most agonizing deaths I've seen in a video game. It's truly sad. You can hear a deep stricken female reptilian sounding voice in the song... She wants to die. I wonder if she is an Homage to megalania. She looks like one and In real life that entire species was torturously burned to death by humans....
good for a nestaligic feeling. but defentally less difficult than the orginal (played this first then the orginal actually lol) {aka no river of deaths, very limited 3d movement and a straight line to the life support, while orginal has the river of death, more movement around and pretty random ways to the life support.} orginal was meant to be pretty hard as it was the final boss while this is a throwback to it. still pretty fun though.
I actually played Generations 3DS before Adventure 2. Heck, I played Generations 3DS before Generations 360. By the time I got Gen3D, I had only played the first two, CD, Secret Rings, Zero Gravity, and Colors Wii. Many of the levels, including Mushroom Hill. Radical Highway, and Water Palace were entirely new to me, and nothing short of astounding. The bosses were also new, exciting, and unique, particularly Big Arm from Sonic 3. Flash forward eight years to today. I've played the original trilogy, CD, 3D Blast, Spinball, the Game Gear games, Adventure 1, Heroes, Unleashed, Colors Wii, both Generations games, Advance 1, Swcret Rings, Black Knight, Zero Gravity, Free Riders, 2006, Chaotix, All Stars Racing, Mania, and Forces. I've also beaten a good chunk of those games. My most recent pickup was Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. I had always seen it as that elusive "best 3D Sonic game", and getting my hands on it felt incredible. It lived up to that title. The speed sections were incredible, the mech sections were great, the treasure hunting stages were...there, and overall it was the best Sonic game ever released. When I got to the Biolizard, I had remembered the battle from Gen3D (the one in this video) and expected the battle to be similar. I proceeded to meet an Orange Coke grave.
This was such a high energy battle back in the old days, and it took me days and weeks to get through. The two litter river gaps and the size of the arena on the classic and gamecube versions really added a new level of concentration necessary for a successful battle. Now it seems like quite a pathetic match.
Frontroxes Yeah i mean Shadow's The ULTIMATE F*CKING LIFEFORM BRUH! no seriously This Fight isn't bad at all i just think Shadow's more Fitting in this Fight
Sonic had to sit this one out before... So he really wouldn't remember what to do XD Besides, this is hella alot easier when you don't need to move in 3 dimensions to dodge and attack, on and that one part with the instakill water current being taken away.... :|
Flounder Fisherman Gerald Robotnik, Eggman's Grandfather, attempted to make a perfect life form that couldn't "break" in any sense to help mankind. The Biolizard was a prototype, and Shadow was the completed version.
Better question: how do you go from a big ass orange lizard to an emo black hedgehog the size of sonic? Like I know it was a prototype, but that's a huge change.
I'm still wondering how immortality turned into a giant dino lizard thing, then later a hedgehog w/rocket kicks.( how does this thing walk around w/out rear legs?)
We missed out the opportunity to fight Biolizard in the console version of Generations and only the 3DS version. Now we get the chance to do it this time.
People hate the Generations boss fights because it's different than what they grew up with. I like them because, well, they're different. They bring new things into the battle to make it more interesting.
Well, this isn't the final boss I guess.. SO HE GOT NERFED!!! GO TO THAT CORNER WITH GRENINJA YOU AMPHIBIAN NOBODY LIKES YOU!!! (A Biolizard tear drops... 1 Like = 1 Extra Nerf)
In SA2, the purple orbs went faster and faster after every successful hit on the Biolizard. Like, at least up to twice as fast, maybe even to 3 times as fast. Plus, dodging them was harder because there wasn't a duck button and they weren't on a 2D plane like they are here
the GameCube version is so hard!!! like when I saw this boss level fight come out I was like nope nope not going through that rage against -after beating bio lizard- it would've of been a bit more fun with a little more difficulty level
The unique levels and bosses the 3DS versions had should have just all been for the console versions. Would've truly been a love letter to the series with more content. That, and made Shadow playable for this fight like the original.
It depends, if it's something like Mario (which I like, but I don't LOVE) I don't really care but if it's something thats very dear to my heart, (basically this.) I care.
Sonic Generations is a more casual game and has to contain easier bossfights like this to a casual player. I love The Biolizard here, and his remix is amazing too
0:40 I believe in my future. Farewell to the shadows. It was my place to live, but now I need your hand. lead me out with your light. I have breathed in the disgusting air of darkness but I never lose out
I feel like I'm really late to this but after reading the comments I do have some agreements with it being easier only because I'm bad at video games. Besides isn't this battle supposed to bring back the memories of the old game. I'm not going to lie I am very salty that Shadow isn't battling the biolizard but then again I'm salty about the roar change. If I some how offended you with this comment I'm sorry I had no intention of doing so. I find both battles nostalgic and in their own ways amazing. The music is great and although in SA2 there was more feeling put into the biolizard battle this one is equally as good. The whole battle overall is a great reminder of how Sega refuses to put In another gosh dang Chao garden in their games.
ok here's one, the form of time travel open an alternative dimension and sonic is going through memories of past places so they have no actual effect on their own universe, i think theres something there
It is, but to be fair this boss is halfway through the game on 3DS whereas it's the penultimate boss on SA2, so of course they would make it easier here.
has anyone ever thought that Eggman might have made some invention that just backfired before sonic even got within 100 miles of it and like, caused some weirdo portal to open up and cast all of the memories that sonic (And shadow as you can see) had from the past? And in the end, Eggman just got stuck in the place because he couldn't get out in time? It's a lot easier than trying to explain timelines...
I miss the "jaguar roar."
MURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROWWWWWWWWWWWWW
The roar was different like when biolizard was teleporting. That was a shreik of agony. But they must have censored it to me he it sound less painful?
Actually this versions scream sounds more life like. Of course the original was much better.
Zachary Kenniston This scream is much better,without mentioning how it actually sounds like actually a real monster.
The original was actually just a reused sound clip from Perfect Chaos, which was just a distorted Godzilla roar. This version isn't a reused sound, so it sounds a little better, but I still like the SA2 version more.
They removed the water...
Part of me is happy, the other part of me is upset.
Thats... not water...
Brave Gallade well what is it called nobody really knows
Grumpsu urine
Brave Gallade
It’s absolutely water, based on how Cannon’s Core has an entire section about draining it.
Yep, you take the Biolizard out of its natural aquatic habitat, leaving it barely able to shuffle its body around.
J Dawg 25o that’s not water
The energy balls just don't have the same impact without that percussive **PAP** from the original
Prototype for ultimate life form, yet was designed without back legs
good one
+Noah Jackson it wasnt rlly a joke...it litterally has no rear legs...
+Spartan War118 the hell did it go from fatass salamander with no back legs, no eyes and a loud as hell roar to an emo hedgehog?
That's easy. Because Mammals have a built in growth limit, while reptiles like the Biolizard tend to grow without limit. That was actually one of the problems with the prototype, that it grew uncontrollably.
As for why specifically a Hedgehog? Probably because all hedgehogs in Sonic's world are super fast.
nintendomaster64 emo? no. genetically modified experiment yes
This fight was the freaking devil as a kid playing it on the gamecube
Daniel montoya nahh not really it was easy as shit for me.
We get it: You're super cool because it was sooooo easy for you.
You can stop gloating about a game boss.
Isaac Abarca not tryna bragg juss sayin
having someone else beat it for you doesn't make it easy
IKR? Too bad they took out the part where he shoots the orbs at you...THAT was the hardest phase for sure!
Adventure 2 Biolizard - Effin hard!
Generations Biolizard - Effin easy!
1990Thunderbolt nahh dey was both easy as fuck
except the difficulty here comes from the biolizard and not shit camera angles or controls kekek
1990Thunderbolt Generations' was still hard as balls
To be fair, you're comparing the second to last boss of one game to the middle boss of another.
Sorry, I farted. Lmao so true

The one in SA2 is close to the final boss, this one is only your second boss which is why it’s not as hard.
Semi-Final boss you mean.

no seriously This Fight isn't bad at all
i just think Shadow's more Fitting in this Fight

Don't act like a fucking babby
This guy always scared me when I played Sonic Adventures 2. Ah the memories.

how the hell was the biolizard made anyway ??
Flounder Fisherman Gerald Robotnik, Eggman's Grandfather, attempted to make a perfect life form that couldn't "break" in any sense to help mankind. The Biolizard was a prototype, and Shadow was the completed version.
***** why do you think he took the back legs off i you look
near the tail theres a stump i am really interested.
Flounder Fisherman Like I said, Prototype. Maybe the legs didn't grow in properly, for example.
Better question: how do you go from a big ass orange lizard to an emo black hedgehog the size of sonic? Like I know it was a prototype, but that's a huge change.
0:33
Oh hey Dark Gaia Phoenix
In SA2 it was a strange version of perfect chaos roar
He looks really good on an actual 3DS.
I even think I would like this more that if they made him on the PC port.
3DS graphics just suit him a lot
If it's using a life support system, it's not the ultimate life form.
*ROASTED!!*
It's A PROTOTYPE for a reason.
*DOUBLE ROASTED!!*
I pretty sure had the creature been treated right and not Abused for being areptile... She probably would have been ok..
I'm still wondering how immortality turned into a giant dino lizard thing, then later a hedgehog w/rocket kicks.( how does this thing walk around w/out rear legs?)
This battle was alot more scarier in Sonic Adventure 2
(Meanwhile)
Shadow: *Shudders*, That Blue Hedgehog is stealing my thunder again! i just know it
Blitz Prower but that shadow dead
We missed out the opportunity to fight Biolizard in the console version of Generations and only the 3DS version. Now we get the chance to do it this time.
All is forgiven in 2024... 🤘🏾
People hate the Generations boss fights because it's different than what they grew up with. I like them because, well, they're different. They bring new things into the battle to make it more interesting.
+SonicGamer 03 I don't hate this.
Some other people do though.
Weaklings.
Let them hate. It will just get them nothing.
Sheldor I hate when ppl hate it just for being different
Man, this brings back so much nostalgia...
I swear, UA-cam comments are cringy as hell.

Give me an example
@@YourMidTierLava-zk2rk keep checking, you will bump into one
I do like this one better than the SA2 version, but Shadow fits better for the fight
unova1995 it’s technically his brother so it means more
For the 3ds the biolizard had nice reflections
Battle - Adventure 2
Theme Song - Generations
Adventure 2 Battle + Generations Theme Song = Perfection
Bullshit this was handicapped for Sonic, especially for those purple orbs he shot out at you that werent going 80 mph lmao
Well, this isn't the final boss I guess.. SO HE GOT NERFED!!! GO TO THAT CORNER WITH GRENINJA YOU AMPHIBIAN NOBODY LIKES YOU!!! (A Biolizard tear drops... 1 Like = 1 Extra Nerf)
Ty Spikes the purple orbs where also slow in adventure 2
They were fast enough to mess you up.
In SA2, the purple orbs went faster and faster after every successful hit on the Biolizard. Like, at least up to twice as fast, maybe even to 3 times as fast. Plus, dodging them was harder because there wasn't a duck button and they weren't on a 2D plane like they are here
i think this one is easier because it doesn't have those stupid water caps like it does in adventure 2 battle
plus the camra work on adventure 2 is worse as well
Sonic fighting the Biolizard is so wrong. I'm glad Shadow fights it again in shadow generations
It maybe a lot more easier than the original, but it's still very faithful to the original boss in my opinion.
And why are his legs comprised of the 7 chaos emera- OH SH*T IT THE BIOLIZARD!
i wouldve loved this fight in generations. imagine a fully updated model...
The one time turning a fight from 3D to 2D was justified
This was my favorite part of this game when I was a kid
the GameCube version is so hard!!! like when I saw this boss level fight come out I was like nope nope not going through that rage against -after beating bio lizard- it would've of been a bit more fun with a little more difficulty level
Shadow's big bro wasn't relevant enough to get into the console version, but at least he got some recognition.
Remember when sonic died at the end of sa2 and then came back to life in shadow heros?
Now I know why I thought I’ve done this boss fight without even getting to that point in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
The unique levels and bosses the 3DS versions had should have just all been for the console versions. Would've truly been a love letter to the series with more content. That, and made Shadow playable for this fight like the original.
I think they could only add so many stages in the regular sonic generations that they used this game to add the stages they would’ve wanted to add
THEY RUINED IT'S ROAR!!
Come on... I freakin loved it's roar!
I found this roar more appropriate, because what the hell kind of reptile screams like a jaguar?
probably like it more because I had to fight Biolizard SO MUCH and heard it's *FABULOUS* roar so much. Also because of nostalga :>
So, nostalgia makes everything better? .....Not trying to change your opinion BTW.
It depends, if it's something like Mario (which I like, but I don't LOVE) I don't really care but if it's something thats very dear to my heart, (basically this.) I care.
The roars are all the Dark Gaia Phoenix's! Even the start!
Sonic Generations is a more casual game and has to contain easier bossfights like this to a casual player. I love The Biolizard here, and his remix is amazing too
seems that this fight is only living hell in sa2
You're not alone.
Remember when Sonic sacrificed himself after teaming up with Shadow? Good times.
u mean shadow sacrifice himself or is it the other way around
It's a joke about sonic fighting biolizard instead of shadow@@Flintonda23

"because its about shadow and biolizard" Good point you got there.
God I love this song.
I like that it's essentially an improved Shadow.
Even tho the original fight was waaay better this fight is still very entertaining. I wish you could play as Shadow tho
Thanks for uploading!!!
God I loved this song.
I swear to god, this boss in SA2 still gives me rage moments till now lol
TO THE PRESSURE, EVERYTHIIIIIINGS JUST LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE AN ILLUSION.
11 years ago, shadow faces the biohazard. years later as Sonic travel from time and space and took down the bio hazard. so original.

I remember when I first fought this boss. I haven't played SA2 at the time so this boss kinda creeped me out. I was 9 at the time.
Me who didn't know this was in this game:
*a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.*
The reason it's easier is because it isn't the final boss in Sonic Generations. Don't you guys know how difficulty curves work? lol.
My easiest battle from the 3ds remember this straight from adventure 2
Weird how the SA2 stuff on 3ds only pulls from segments we’re you play as Shadow.
Really? I haven’t played the 3ds version so I wouldn’t know
A bossfight from a ps2 game being remade to a console with ps2 graphics, nice!
I lost this game 10 years ago.
Sonic came to hog Shadow's spotlight.
I love how Sonic is in places he never as been in this game, like, Radical Highway and this boss belongs to Shadow lol
No gaps in the platform where you can step into the deadly yellow water. That would make it too hard for the easy mode generation I guess.
Boss taking damage sounds
Adventure 2: RRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHH
Generations : Ah
ok here's one, the form of time travel open an alternative dimension and sonic is going through memories of past places so they have no actual effect on their own universe, i think theres something there
I love that his roar is actually ORIGINAL instead of reusing perfect chaos roar
Hate to burst your bubble, but the roar here is reused from Dark Gaia Phoenix in Sonic Unleashed.
@@sarahalice7034 i figured.
I like this boss in SA2, and I think they used the same model from SA2 for this game.
Biolizard sounds like Dark Gaia Pheonix. I assume they reused the audio files.
+Ultimatestopgame Kinda like how Perfect Chaos' roar is recycled in SA2?
Pretty much yeah.
but when you hit biolizard's life support in SA2 his roar was basically his own sound
why is the dark gaia pheonix sound effects in this?!
Hellbender: Ginormous Garbage Disposal With A Humongous Appetite For Destruction
after all theses years i cant believe i didnt notice that biolizard doesnt have any back legs.
big red lizard turns into black hedgehog, who knows what gerald was thinking
We should’ve had this boss fight on the PlayStation/Xbox version
Omg I use to play that game all the time when I was a kid ;o;
on sonic generations in the biolizard fight you cant get on the other side
but on sonic adventure 2 you can.
It wasn't even so much you "Could" it's more you "Would" XD
in this boss battle the Biolizard was always eating the rings
I don't care how much easier this is. Those damn purple balls give me ptsd from looking at them
Me:(grabs purple ball and starts chasing you with it 🤣)
I find it odd how back on the Dreamcast, they could get those flipper thingies near the tail to animate, but not on a powerhouse like the 3DS.
The Biolizard is easy to beat now probably because Sonic has gotten stronger since Sa2, confirmed by Forces, Sonic is growing stronger with time.
it shud have been the final battle with sonic like jumping off asteroids or sumthing, like how the console version had perfect chaos
Shadows song with sonic is quite mix match
I remember the creature from Sonic X and Adventure 2! I first watched Sonic X, and I found out Sonic X was based on Sonic Adventure 2.
Season 2 was based off on sonic adventure 1 and 2
It is, but to be fair this boss is halfway through the game on 3DS whereas it's the penultimate boss on SA2, so of course they would make it easier here.
has anyone ever thought that Eggman might have made some invention that just backfired before sonic even got within 100 miles of it and like, caused some weirdo portal to open up and cast all of the memories that sonic (And shadow as you can see) had from the past? And in the end, Eggman just got stuck in the place because he couldn't get out in time? It's a lot easier than trying to explain timelines...
The music is more upbeat and has clear because Sonic is the one fighting, not Shadow.
You know, this guy kind of reminds me of a Queen Metroid in terms of design
Supporting me is still a great song
What computer do you have, Melpontro? ;) Because it must be flippin' amazing!
Give me the Biolizard.
*Generations 3DS Biolizard*
No, the actual Biolizard.
*SA2 + SA2B Biolizard*
Perfect.
Well, that was extremely lucky that sonic didn't have to deal with those FREAKING HOLES ON THE SIDES!!! I MEAN COME ON!!!
I can't for the life of me figure out what that shriek is
How did gerald robotnik went from a giant, splashing, killing lizard, to a small hedgehog?!
