Final Boss

Final Boss Fight

This fight is unlike any other; instead of
collecting pearls for Soul Energy, you'll have to shake the Wii Remote vigorously to build up energy. This is handy as you can charge Soul Energy at almost any time, but it's also very tiring; especially if you end up repeating the battle multiple times. The easiest method is to hold the Wii Remote vertically like a bottle and shaking it forcibly.

Main Battle

Layla wa Layla has multiple attacks that he'll whip out in a set order:

Purple Energy Balls: This is Layla's first attack, which he'll repeat throughout the battle. It involves firing five purple energy balls at Sonic. These can be a complete pain to avoid -- while you can attempt to weave between them, we strongly recommend using a Speed Break which will allow Sonic to pass through completely unscathed, Furthermore, while using a Speed Break, stick to either the far right or left to collect the occasion line of rings.

Slash Attacks: Following the energy ball attack, Layla wa Layla will break out four slash attacks using both of his blades. However, just before he attacks, you can see an outline of where his slashes will occur, allowing you to avoid the attack in time, by positioning Sonic between the slashes or to the sides.

Spirit Blast: Subsequently, Layla wa Layla will back away and charge up a large pink orb, indicating the Spirit Attack. This attack is completely unavoidable unless you use a Speed Break, which is also how you damage , Layla wa Layla.

It's crucial that your Soul Gauge be filled at least halfway, so make sure to shake the Wii Remote as much as you can while he's charging the ball. Just before he tosses it at Sonic, activate a Speed Break to grab hold of the ball and chuck it back at Layla wa Layla -- if your soul gauge is running low while Sonic's grabbing the ball, continue to shake the Wii Remote to continually add Soul Energy to your gauge.

Once the energy ball is rebounded back at Layla wa Layla, perform normal jumps (or use a Speed break) to quickly sail right up to him. Layla wa Layla's heart will now be exposed, so home attack and shake the Wii Remote to inflict damage - while you may want to inflict as many hits as possible, it's easier to attack just 7 or 8 times, which will prevent Layla wa Layla from introducing additional attacks, which can be difficult to dodge.

Now simply repeat the above several times to defeat the boss. However, Layla wa Layla may employ a few different attacks you haven't yet seen:

Whirlpools: After your first attack, Layla wa Layla will shoot several blue whirlpools toward Sonic, which can tough to avoid since they will actually pull you toward them. The best tactic is to activate a Time Break and weave between them with perfect accuracy.

More Slash Attacks: Layla wa Layla may also deploy a few more slash attacks, such as one shaped like an "X," and one that fills the entire screen. Just move to the left or right slightly to avoid most of these.
