Team Chaotix are the second boss in Team Dark's story and the fifth boss in Team Rose's story in Sonic Heroes. It is a three-on-three brawl against Team Chaotix that takes place in the Grand Metropolis skyline with Team Dark and later in the depths of Lost Jungle's swamps with Team Rose.
Boss guide
The objective of these battles is to knock Team Chaotix off the edges of the battle platforms into the bottomless pits surrounding them. There is no damage system in this boss, meaning Team Chaotix cannot be defeated by simply damaging them. Grabbing the Power Cores and Rings before the opponents do is crucial. Without Rings, Team Chaotix will fly back farther, making them easier to be knocked off. Some characters are more suited to battle against specific Team Chaotix members due to having moves that are most effective against their particular formations:
| Enemy formation |
Counter formation |
|---|---|
| Speed | Power |
| Power | Flight |
| Flight | Speed |
If the player loses any team members, they can be brought back to the field by performing the Team Blast.
Team Dark
Charmy Bee, before Team Dark battles Team ChaotixAlright then let's do it!
In this arena, there are a total of nine Power Cores; three blue, three yellow, and three red. The player should start by grabbing the Blue Power Core in the center (so Espio cannot use it). When the other team is near, the player should have Shadow use Black Tornado to fling them into the air. While they are grounded, they can collect more Power Cores or steal their Rings. Staying aware of the other team's location is key to winning.

Team Rose
There's gotta be a major misunderstanding here.. but we can't back down now!Espio the Chameleon, before Team Rose battles Team Chaotix
In this area, there are only three available Power Cores and they sit outside the arena in balloons. There is also a Shield hidden in a Wooden Container on the stage. For this battle, Team Chaotix will be much more difficult to defeat as they will always switch to the formation that is dominant over that of the player.
Just like the battle against Team Sonic, this one requires Amy as the point character. The player should grab a Ring and then use Tornado Hammer to knock Team Chaotix down. Once one of the Chaotix members has been finished off, the player should try to take down the other two as fast as possible. They will use their Team Blast to revive their fallen character. Thunder Shoot should be used for the balloons on the side.
