Sonic always has and from what we know always will need all 7 Chaos Emeralds to Transform into his super form, as less than that only amplifies his abilities by a fair margin. The Chaos Emeralds play a crucial role in Sonic’s ability to transform into Super Sonic, granting him invulnerability and enhanced speed, and are essential for him to access his full potential and save the world from various threats.
Understanding the Chaos Emeralds
