INTRODUCTION ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• The reason I am making this guide, for that awesome game called Sonic Adventure 2, is because no one else has......ok, so no one believes that. Actually, the true reason, is because at some point in time, people are gonna want to know. I mean, Sonic Team has said the 180 emblems is only the beginning of the game's secrets. Also, there is an Omochao in each level to tell you the number of animals in the level, and it shows a number when you collect each one....there must be some reason to this. So I am making a FAQ now, and when Sonic Team reveals why you must get animals in ever level, you can thank me then (well, you can thank me now, too.) ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 2.

UPDATES/REVISION HISTORY ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.2 (08/17/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Hey all....sorry for not updating or checking my e-mail lately, but I picked up Pokemon Crystal on the 10th, and then on the 14th, a friend of mine who had graduated died in a car wreck....so, updating this wasn't a high priority. But I'm back, and there are now some animals for new levels, thanks to eevailen. But I hope to start getting back in the groove of things.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.17 (08/09/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Well, since I've now learned that all you get for all the animals is an extra life....I'm not gonna be working as hard on this thing. At least not until Sonic Team says that you get something else.......ok? I know that was short, but its 11, and I'm not thinking straight. Also, thanks to eevailen for pointing out there are 20 animals in City Escape, not 15..... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.15 (08/07/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Added most animals for Death Chamber, and a couple for Meteor Herd....that level is just huge. I also just realized something that could be depressing, or just a minor problem that can easily be corrected, I'm not sure. What I'm talking about is City Escape.....after collecting all 15 animals, I don't get the number of animals collected to turn red, or get any music, like I do in the Knuckles levels.....which makes me wonder, is 15 all, or are there more? Another possibility is that I never actually found an Omochao saying there were 15 in that level, so maybe if I found him, then the numbers would turn red.....I don't really know. Anyways, if you have any comments on that subject, or some animal locations, let me know at madhattersd@hotmail.com. My Sonic Adventure 2 stats: 102 Emblems 52 A rankings ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.11a (08/06/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • There isn't enough for me to consider a new number for this update...but I now have the locations of all the animals for 3 levels! Those would be City Escape, Wild Canyon, and Aquatic Mine. Thanks to Ol_G and others for showing me where the last City Escape one was....and here's a little thing I'll put in every update, so you all know how I am doing: My Sonic Adventure 2 stats: 102 Emblems 52 A rankings ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.11 (08/04/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • After completing a cross country camp that took up all free time, added most locations for 2 new Knuckles stages. I am planning on doing the Knuckles and Rouge stages first, then Sonic/Shadow, and lastly, Tails/Robotnik. Also changed my Walkthrough Basics a bit. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version 0.1 (07/29/01) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- • First construction of this FAQ. Not released to public. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 4. Walkthrough Basics ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Well, my walkthroughs are gonna be pretty basic. At the top of each level walk through will be the following: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- a) Level Name ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of Animals: ?? As you can see, it'll say the level, and number of animals in it. Not that complicated. After that, there will be a list of numbers, and by each number, the location of an animal. Follow me? Good. For directions used in the walkthrough: I will probably only use the compass directions for Knuckles/Rouge missions. They are the only "wide open" levels, so they are the only ones requiring north/south/east/west directions. In the other 4, I will generally use left/right/front/back to locate the animals, unless the compass directions are required. For numerical placing of the animals: In Sonic/Shadow/Tails/Robotnik levels, I will place the animals in the order that they are found, starting with the ones closest to your starting position, and the last being the one closest to your goal ring. Everyone understand? For Knuckles/Rouge, I'm just gonna put them in groups, if some are close to a certain object (The Sphinx head in Wild Canyon, for instance.) Otherwise, there is no real order to the listing. Just groups. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 5. Sonic Walkthrough ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This part of the FAQ is for the Sonic missions. If you want something else, then go there. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- a) City Escape ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of Animals: 28 #1) As soon as you are off your board, turn around, and behind a bush, there is a raccoon..... #2) As soon as you are able to run without your board, there will be some boxes in front of you, near Omochao, and against a wall. Break them, and there will be a pipe. #3) Later on, after grinding down your first rail, there will be a accelerator that pushes you up a ramp. On the left side of this ramp, on the bottom, is a pipe. Whistle there. #4) When you come to the first checkpoint, there will be a bench to your right. A raccoon is circling behind it. #5) Continue on until you come to the two sets of stairs going up to bouncers with grass dividing them. At the bottom of these stairs is a bunny circling a tree on your right, near Omochao. #6) Under a black car near #4 is a skunk. #7) At the top of the stairs and bouncer, there is a recycling bin behind you. A skunk circles it. #8) After running down the street and entering a large area with 2 rows of coins in the middle, go to your right.

Just go to the tree at the bottom of those stairs, and whistle, and another animal appears. #15) Continue until you run down the wall. Continue up. There are TWO recycling bins in this area. Go to the one FARTHEST from the wall you just ran down. Whistle. #16) There is a park bench here with a bunny. #17) Go on until you are on the grind which requires you to make several jumps.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 1) Q: When did Sonic Adventure 2 come out? A: June 19th, 2001, in America. 2) Q: Why should I collect all the animals? A: Well, there is really no reason, as of yet. However, Sonic Team has been quoted as saying that the 180 emblems are just the beginnings of the secrets in this game. And seeing as how they count how many animals are in a level...I figure this has to be some future secret. 3) Q: I told you the location of an animal, but you didn't give me credit...? A: I've decided that since I won't be able to update the FAQ as frequently as I get e-mails, to just give credit to the first person to e-mail me the location. But I do thank everyone who e-mails me for submitting a response, and for looking at this FAQ. This makes my dedication worthwhile. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 13.
