Summary[]
Solaris is the final boss of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Worshiped by the people of Soleanna as the god of fire, light & time, Solaris initially started out as a small flame however would be split into two halves, Mephiles & Iblis as a result of an experiment gone horribly wrong. The 2 halves were sealed shortly after
A decade after the events of the Solaris Project, one of Solaris' halves Mephiles would go on to kill Sonic in order to make Princess Elise, the vessel for Iblis cry in order to release the seal. With its 2 halves fused, Solaris sought to destroy all of time & space, but was defeated by the combined forces of Sonic, Shadow & Silver. After his defeat, Solaris was erased from existence so that the world may not incur its wrath ever again.

Sage noted Sonic was attempting to transcend causality by refusing to succumb to the cyber corruption which plagued him.[1] Despite its attunement being the ruling of everything in the universe that exists that has gone unchallenged since time immemorial, The End referred to its own defeat as something that transcends law and time)

Shadow revealed to Silver that Mephiles' true intent was to eliminate all of history, which includes the Arabian Nights, a world made up of numerous inscriptions, deciding the fates of those written into its pages, with the occupants being bound by its pages. This would also include White Space, a void between dimensions where time doesn't exist, with both Modern & Classic Sonic needing to restore the flow of time of the erased universes by accelerating through it. Furthermore, White Space lacks the fundamental aspects which allows realities such as Maginaryworld, Cyber Space and the Arabian Nights to exist)
- Enhanced Non-Physical Interaction (Abstract Existence (Type 1; Concept Type 1, Nonduality Type 2, Dreams & Nightmares, Feelings), Information Type 2, Data, Laws, Minds, Souls, Memories, Void, Plot, Text, Space-Time, Nonexistence Nature Type 2; All Aspects, Elemental Incorporeality (Energy, Water, Fire, Smoke, Light and Darkness); As the source of vitality to all living things, Chaos Energy would be able to interact with all living beings such as Mephiles (An immaterial being made of Darkness), Iblis (An immaterial being made of energy and fire), Solaris (the fusion of the last two, who is also made from several different dimensions and light), Void/Lumina/Illumina (Abstract beings made of Dream and the emotions needed for them to exist), Chaos (a being made of liquid) and Time Eater (A being made of smoke); As the super-substance of dreams, it naturally interacts with them and all aspects that are shaped by it, which includes the Storybook Worlds (Universes fundamentally made of Plot and Text) and the Cyberspaces (Realities fundamentally made of information, with the ancient cyberspace housing the Ancients' Souls, Memories, Hopes and the essences of who they were)
- Invulnerability Negation (Solaris is capable of harming Super Forms with conventional attacks)
- Dream Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1; Dreams have a fundamental nature within the multiverse due to it being where dreams become reality. The Chaos Emeralds are referred to as the super-substance of dreams. Dr. Eggman stated Solaris' plan was to swallow all timelines and destroy the very meaning of time itself, which additionally includes Maginaryworld and all the dreams contained within Fourth Dimensional Space, a space which in itself is Illumina's dream)
- Mind Manipulation, Physics Manipulation & Empathic Manipulation (Dreams can encompass aspects of the dreamer's mind, with certain dreams possessing altered physics. Dreams can also be manifested as negative emotions including domination, monopolization & lust)
- Plot Manipulation & Text Manipulation (Dreams would also encompass Erazor djinn's desire to remake the Arabian Nights, a reality which is made of texts/manuscripts and narratives which are fundamental to its existence, with the words written being the story of the world itself, with all the characters following a set plot as their law and destiny)
- Law Manipulation, Causality Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Data Manipulation & Information Manipulation (Type 2; The Chaos Emeralds act as the very basis of the Ancients' technology, with the gems powering all their systems including Cyber Space. Cyberspace is a referred to as a separate digital world by The End as well as a digital dimension by Dr. Eggman which can obtain external information/data from the universe and materialize it within itself. Tails surmised that Cyber Space stores information down to the very essence of the Ancients' beings including their hopes, dreams & memories and even their souls. When a being enters Cyber Space, their memories physically alter and change the realm depending upon their memories. The barrier surrounding the Starfall Islands was stated to defy the laws of the world, manifesting logical disparities down to the bottom of causality. When it used the Chaos Emeralds to fuse, Solaris was stated to be capable of destroying all of reality in all time periods. That would include Cyber Space by extension[2])

- Cyber Corruption (Afflictions - 3 Layers; When Sonic transformed into his Super State, his Cyber Corruption, which was able to affect him despite resisting similar abilities previously, was halted, though it did not cure him outright)
- Extreme Cold & Cosmic Radiations
Attack Potency: Multiverse level+ (Brought forth by the power of the Chaos Emeralds, Solaris would've consumed all existing timelines, annihilating the meaning of time itself. Stated to transform everything into nothing had he not been stopped & was destroying all space-time, which consists of an infinite number of parallel worlds and Maginaryworld, an amalgamation of an infinite universe-sized constructs), higher in its Phoenix form (Solaris' second form is stated to be even stronger with fierce offense. It's projectiles can overpower Super Sonic's Arrow of Light)
Speed: Immeasurable (Is a higher-dimensional being who exist simultaneously within the past, present & future with Super Sonic, Shadow & Silver needing to travel throughout time to defeat him. Solaris' attacks are shown to travel through time)
Lifting Strength: Immeasurable (Used the Chaos Emeralds to complete its transformation and absorbed various dimensions)
Striking Strength: Multiverse level+ (It's attacks can harm and wound Super Sonic, Shadow, and Silver each), higher in its Phoenix state
Durability: Multiverse level+ (Solaris' core is located underneath the cosmic armor with plating on the chestplate that must be broken through first to reach it. Managing to do so and attacking the core only reveals a second, stronger form), far higher in its Phoenix form (Can no longer be harmed by the Super States' attacks and they had to resort to attacking its consciousness, which can withstand his own attacks being redirected back at him)
Stamina: Infinite
Range: Multiversal+ with abilities
Intelligence: Genius (Mephiles, the mind of Solaris, created a plan lasting 200 years, manipulating the main Sonic cast throughout that time)
Weaknesses: The red core in the center of its body is vulnerable
NOTE: Contrary to currently emerging beliefs, Solaris is temporally OMNIPRESENT i.e. existing in all time frames, not 3 distinct time periods. Eggman said Solaris exists in the past, present and future, not any particular time periods nor was there any mention of specific time periods in the game or the manuals/guides. Furthermore, whenever the player switches hedgehogs whilst Solaris attacks, they'll still see Solaris performing said attack whilst redirecting it to the newly controlled hedgehog, which wouldn't make sense if Solaris was only in 3 separate time periods.
To add on, it should be noted that Solaris only possesses one health bar instead the bar filling up again, doesn't make sense if Solaris only existed in 3 time periods. Solaris is almost NEVER referred to in the plural sense, not by the secondary sources nor by Dr. Eggman who researched Solaris, only Silver refers to Solaris as such stating "I'll destroy them all at once", while Silver isn't a scientist himself, he still said that statement. after Dr. Eggman told everyone of Solaris' unique state of existence, showing that he was not only confident enough to take on Solaris but showcasing that speed clearly isn't the issue before Shadow shuts the idea down saying that they need Sonic.
