[edit] History
[edit] Sonic Adventure 2
The Biolizard was an early version of Project Shadow, a government project run by Professor Gerald Robotnik that was intended to create an "Ultimate Life-form" as a first step towards humanity discovering the secret of immortality. Due to the experiments, it later needed a life support system. The Biolizard was a prototype of this "Ultimate Lifeform" before it was closed down when Gerald, with the aid of the alien Black Doom, produced a more advanced being: Shadow the Hedgehog.
When the Guardian Unit of Nations came to space colony ARK in order to put a stop to Gerald Robotniks plans, they found the Biolizard and shut it down. It didn't go without a fight however and it destroyed almost the entire group of GUN soldiers.
The Biolizard remained in suspended animation aboard the ARK until Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends came there. After Doctor Eggman successfully achieved the seventh Chaos Emerald and put it into the Eclipse Cannon, a video of Professor Robotnik was shown on all televisions and an audio version on the radio warning people of the Biolizard and how when the seven Chaos Emeralds came to the ARK, the ARK would plunge into the Earth's atmosphere. As the seven Chaos Emeralds were in place the ARK began to fall. Sonic and Eggman joined forces and tried to pull the ARK into orbit again by using Knuckles' Master Emerald to deactivate the Chaos Emeralds.
However, when Sonic and Knuckles entered the cannon's core, the Biolizard was awoken, determined to keep the ARK on its path to Earth. Later, Amy Rose convinced Shadow to help save the Earth, and Shadow fought and won against the giant reptile (while Biolizard's theme song "Supporting Me" is sung by Everett Bradley). The Biolizard then used Chaos Control to teleport outside and fuse with the space station itself, becoming the Finalhazard, the final boss of the game. It was destroyed by the combined power of Super Sonic and Super Shadow (while the song "Live and Learn" was sung by Crush 40).
In the game, Shadow defeats the Biolizard by grinding up the green tube connecting the Biolizard's head to the life support system, and then either using a homing attack on the life-support system, or landing on it an using a somersault. Eventually, Shadow will have to use his homing attack on the Biolizard's pink "egg" spawn to reach the life support system instead. Finally, Shadow will be lifted into the air, and must maneuver through the eggs to get to the life-support system and defeat the Biolizard.
Sonic and Shadow defeat the Finalhazard by dodging his giant laser beams and "egg" spawn, and then charging into its large, red boils. If either Sonic or Shadow take too long doing this, they will run out of rings and die; however, by flying across the Finalhazard on to the other character's side, the two hedgehogs can switch prematurely if necessary. Also, if Sonic and Shadow doesn't defeat the Finalhazard in under five minutes, the ARK will impact the Earth and they will die.
[edit] Shadow the Hedgehog
The Biolizard was not mentioned in Shadow the Hedgehog, except when Shadow remembers his apparent death after defeating it. The Biolizard was simply an example of Gerald's work before Black Doom assisted him, and thus is of little interest to the Black Arms and wasn't stable because he didn't have Black Doom's DNA. However, it is noted that Black Doom's super form, Devil Doom, has an identical cry to that of Biolizard, and it is thus possible that Biolizard was made from Black Doom's DNA, but was simply unsuccesful.
[edit] Sonic X
The Biolizard's role in Sonic X parallels the one it plays in Sonic Adventure 2. The difference is that the creature is not specifically named as a prototype of Project Shadow.
