The Hero Gauge[2] (ヒーローゲージのた[3] Hīrōgēji Nota?) is a subject that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is an energy gauge used for the Hero Shadow state.

Description

The Hero Gauge is a gray-framed gauge that appears in the upper right corner on the HUD. Inside it is a blue energy bar and on the left end is a hook.

Overview

Shadow the Hedgehog Empty Dark Gauges

In gameplay, the Hero Gauge is filled by committing heroic deeds.[2] These include:

Once the Hero Gauge is filled, Shadow transforms into Hero Shadow, which grants infinite ammo for weapons, invulnerability and usage of Chaos Control. However, the gauge will steadily decrease while Hero Shadow is active and using Chaos Control will deplete it completely. Once the Hero Gauge runs out, Shadow reverts back to normal.
