Metal SonicSMB by Shazzo, edited by DeluxeGamer705

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You may be wondering, what is this version of Metal Sonic? Well, it is a version created by Shazzo 
in 2007. It was a spriteswap of a bad version of Axel Stone, known as "CvS Axel", made by Actarus, which was already terrible.
This spriteswap, however, is pretty decent in my opinion. However, I felt like Metal Sonic had a share of his flaws and some
cheap stuff that could classed as a chaep character with some problems with infinities.
So, I felt like this character should be edited, so I came up with an idea to edit this character! I also nerfed his
attack and defence stats so that he could not be a cheap character.

This version was made for a never-finished project Super Mugen Bros.. This version was also called "SMBZ Metal Sonic" by many
people, despite the fact that this version is NOT based on his apperance in Super Mario Bros. Z at all. Besides, Metal Sonic 
never even made a proper apperance in SMBZ, only as a cameo.
