Playing Tip When choosing characters it's best to consider what you need for the next level. For example, if you're after raw speed the combination of Mighty and Espieo can't be beat.

Purple Emerald This trick requires that you use Sonic. In Radical City, keep to the main course. Do NOT go into the pinball area. You will pass a 50 ring door. Run past it.

Golden Chao Baby There are two open shops in the part of Station Square with the open manhole. The golden chao's egg is in one of them. Unfortunately every time you lift the egg from its pressure sensitive platform, the doors are barred shut. Go to the city hall area where you fought Chaos 0 and look near the walls and grass. An egg-shaped rock is here, and you can put it on the platform in the store. You may now leave freely with the golden chao egg. Vector

Metallic Chao Baby To get the one-of-a-kind metallic chao baby, go to the waterfall near the subway and look to the right of it. You will see a sort of platform. Go to it and push it.

One-and-a-Half Play When you are playing Sonic's action stages and Tails is on the screen, a second player can control Tails with a second controller. Any rings Tails collects will be added to Sonic's totals. Be careful to not make Tails break open any shields, invincibilities or One Up item boxes as those will not be added to Sonic and will be wasted.
This feature may seem trivial to most people, but you'd be surprised how much fun it can be trying to outrun player one (who's playing Sonic) when you're controlling Tails. ;)

Big the Cat Appearances There are several places in SA2 that you can see Big the Cat from Sonic Adventure. Here are a few of them:
1. City Escape: About 3/4 of the way down when you're running away from the truck look on the right sidewalk to see him running away.
2. Radical Highway: After going in one of the rockets look at the blimp to the left and he will be sitting on it.
3. Pumpkin Hill: Go to the area where the train is stuck (it's going back and forth) and he is behind one of the gates waving to you.
4. Cannon's Core: With Rouge, go to the top of the highest pillar in the main room and look up. He's jumping up and down.
5. When you're battling against Shadow with Sonic in the Green Forest area there is a grate. Look down in the grate and you can see Big fishing.

Tip: Planting Seeds in the Chao Garden If you play through the Chao Adventure 2, the VMU game, you will find seeds at the end of some of the quests. These seeds can be taken to the Chao garden and produce rare fruits. In order to plant these seeds, you need to first win the shovel and watering can in the beginner Chao races. As soon as you have won these, take the seed out of the VMU and give it to one of your Chao. The Chao will take it, plant it, do a little dance and a little weed you appear. Eventually, it will grow into a tree that you can use to help improve your Chao stats.
