Eggmanland
Day
Dark Gaia and Perfect Dark Gaia
SPOILERS! But not in the first two paragraphs.
This is the final battle in Sonic Unleashed. I'm sure that, sooner or later, someone would've requested this.
The descriptors of "Eggmanland" and "Day" are really only placeholders. It's not really in Eggmanland; the battle takes place at the center of the earth. The game just classifies it as such because Eggmanland counts as the final portion of the game. It's not technically daytime either, as Sonic is thousands of miles beneath the surface.
The battle in the Wii version consists of three parts: A boxing match where you play as Chip, three running sequences for Sonic to get to Dark Gaia's eyes, and a battle as Super Sonic against Perfect Dark Gaia. In order to get the S-Rank, you must have a combined time of less than 7 minutes 30 seconds between these three.
I'll be removing the cutscenes for time reasons. I suppose I can explain the story here, but if you want to see the cutscenes, you should watch someone else's videos. Chip doesn't quite look like himself in the first phase of the fight...and that's because, as Light Gaia, he can summon over the Temples of Gaia from each country Sonic has visited and assemble them into a super robot! I don't know how Punch-Out!! for the Wii plays, but people have always compared this to the NES game: Dodge Dark Gaia's attacks by swaying to the same side of the screen as Dark Gaia's arm if he's about to attack. Then, you can punch Dark Gaia, as hell only be vulnerable then. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
Chip and Dark Gaia will then try to grapple each other, which is Sonic's chance to make like the Three Stooges and poke some eyes. Sonic needs to make it in one piece to the end of each section and correctly do the Quick Time Event to reach Dark Gaia's eyes. Each section is longer and tougher than the last. This one is pretty straightforward.
Dark Gaia will then have enough and transform into Perfect Dark Gaia in a sequence that would make H.P. Lovecraft smile. The Chaos Emeralds respond by bringing themselves to Sonic to turn him into Super Sonic. Sonic loves the Three Stooges routine and now has seven eyes to poke! Super Sonic starts out with 12 Rings and needs to grab more from around the 2-D plane that he can move in. He oses Rings with time, but at a pretty slow rate. Instead, Super Sonic can spend 10 Rings to charge at Perfect Dark Gaia. If he can avoid everything on his way there, he'll poke out an eye. But Perfect Dark Gaia isn't one to just let himself get clobbered. As Super Sonic is going around collecting Rings, Perfect Dark Gaia will swing at Super Sonic, and he loses 10 Rings for each hit that connects. The slashes themselves are very fast, but something that makes life a lot easier is that a small white line (or set of white lines, if he swings with all six arms at once) will appear on the screen as a trajectory before he swings, giving you enough time to get out of the way. I didn't notice those lines until I played this, and it made the battle that much easier.
