Chaos Shadow is a transformation undergone by Shadow the Hedgehog when he removes the inhibitor rings around his wrists. By doing so, he taps fully into the Chaos Force and is at the peak of his power. This transformation is temporary due to over use of the excess energy leaving Shadow physically drained. Following the alterations to reality caused by the improperly reversed Super Genesis Wave, Shadow underwent this transformation again in battle against Black Death. After a brief confrontation, Shadow succeeded in destroying his adversary using his Chaos Blast attack. (SU: 62)
