How to Beat the Biolizard in Sonic X Shadow Generations

As a seasoned veteran of countless battles against some of the most formidable foes in the Sonic universe, I must say that the Biolizard in Sonic X Shadow Generations is one of the most challenging adversaries I’ve faced yet. This Ultimate Lifeform Prototype lives up to its name, pushing my skills and reflexes to their absolute limits.


In Sonic X Shadow Generations, Shadow finds himself battling multiple adversaries from his and Sonic’s past. As he progresses through White Space with the intention of defeating Black Doom, you’ll encounter various foes that have resurfaced from their earlier encounters. The first of these returning enemies is Biolizard, a prototype that came before Shadow in Gerald Robotnik’s efforts to develop the Ultimate Lifeform.

The Biolizard, true to its name, is a colossal genetically modified reptile powered by an unsteady energy supply. In contrast to its initial encounter, the Biolizard from the series “Sonic X Shadow Generations” proves to be a significantly tougher adversary, living up to its billing as the Prototype of the Ultimate Lifeform. This guide delves into combat tactics and provides insights into the Biolizard’s fighting style. There’s also a section at the end that explores Hard Mode and how it affects the confrontation.

As a devoted fan, I’d say, “In this fierce encounter, the Biolizard kicks off the fight much like it did in Sonic Adventure 2. It charges at Shadow, snapping its jaws relentlessly. Then, it tries to whip him away with its tail. To dodge these attacks, simply move clear of its bites and sweeps, and if needed, quickly dash ahead using a burst of boost.

Once you’ve repeated this sequence a few times, the Biolizard will begin charging and releasing energy orbs that roll across the ground. To avoid these, time your jumps so that you leap into the air just as it fires the orbs, allowing you to use your double jump to clear them. Keep repeating this tactic until the Biolizard tires itself out and its head hits the ground. Then, use the homing attack to strike the rails and climb onto the top of the Biolizard to hit its vulnerable spot. Continuously press the homing attack button to pound on the weak point until it sustains enough damage to move into phase 2.

Once about a fourth of its health is reduced, the Biolizard will develop either wings or tentacles and transition into phase 2. In this stage, its primary assault involves choosing a ground spot and thrusting one of its appendages into that location shortly afterwards, generating a shockwave. To avoid these shockwaves, you should jump over them, and then aim for the wing-like tentacles with a homing attack. Continuously press the button to keep pounding it until it eventually bursts.

As the wing of this Biolizard pops open, I swiftly lock on and unleash my homing attack on the floating bubbles that surge upwards. These bubbles serve as stepping stones, propelling me towards the Biolizard’s vulnerable spot. After landing a hit once, it retaliates with a series of shockwave slams. I repeat this tactic to chip away at its health until it’s hanging by a thread, with just half its life force remaining.

Seize the opportunity when it arises to utilize Chaos Control, thereby immobilizing the Biolizard and buying extra time for your own attacks against its tentacles. Just remember, make sure the tentacle is positioned conveniently for your attack before doing so.

When the Biolizard’s health drops to around half, it initiates an aerial assault, launching itself into the air and producing three shockwaves upon landing. To avoid these shockwaves, stay near its intended landing spots but not within them, and leap over the waves as they pass. If you have Chaos Control at your disposal, employ it to fixate a tentacle in position and attack, or else be prepared for a patient battle, striking each tentacle whenever an opportunity arises until one remains stationary long enough for you to burst it.

Maintain your actions until the Biolizard’s health decreases to roughly a quarter. At this point, it will leap to cling to a wall, marking the start of phase 3. During this phase, the Biolizard will launch homing projectiles at Shadow. Defend yourself by firing Doom Spears to destroy these projectiles. Keep holding down the button and shoot whenever you acquire a lock-on. Remember to release the button after shooting so you can swiftly reacquire the next group of projectiles, as the Biolizard will continuously attack with numerous shots attempting to overwhelm you.

Following some time, the Biolizard will build up energy and launch a massive energy sphere. You can halt it using Chaos Control and then attack it with a homing strike to send it back. After that, attack the bubbles with a homing attack to reach the Biolizard’s vulnerable spot again, deal some damage, and execute a quick-time event to conclude the battle victoriously.

As a fan, I’d say the Biolizard in Hard Mode presents a challenge that, while seemingly simplified compared to other battles, is far from easy. The fight mechanics remain identical to its normal version, but here’s the twist: there are no rings to be found throughout the encounter. This means one mistake, and Shadow is out for good. Therefore, I urge caution and vigilance when navigating its attacks. On a positive note, the battle does have checkpoints at two crucial moments – when the Biolizard grows wings at 3/4 health and when it clings to the wall at 1/4 health. So, if you do meet your end, you won’t have to fight the entire battle again from scratch.
