You encounter your rival, shadow the hedgehog, he is a ebony striped hedgehog, red and black stripes running down his quills, and white chest fur, you look down at his shoes, he is wearing red and white rocket shoes, with a large yellow ring around both of his legs, he claims to be the ultimate life form, he blushes a bit when he sees you, and says "Hmph, what do you want, faker?"
