The elemental shields from Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Sonic Generations are found in the game. They are found in item capsules like you would expect and retain all their properties. Getting hit when wearing one will usually cause you to lose that item, although you won't suffer any damage (except when noted). Here they are below plus their added effects.
Fire Shield: Not damaged by fire or lava. Cannot be burned. Can swim in certain lava pools. Damage done by Fire-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by a Water-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will perform a fireball dash. Shield disappears if water touches it.
Water Shield: Can breathe underwater. Can also swim in poison water (still no need to breathe). Damage done by Water-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by an Electric-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will perform a bounce attack.
Thunder Shield: Immune to electricity and liquid energy pools. Healing and money items will be drawn to the character. Damage done by Electric-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by a Ground-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will perform a double jump. Shield disappears if water touches it.
There are also three new shields introduced as well.
Plant Shield: Not damaged by plant-based traps such as vines. Not damaged by brambles. Damage done by Grass-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by a Fire-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will slowly hover towards the ground. Shield disappears if fire or lava touches it.
Ice Shield: Cannot be frozen and are immune to liquid ice pools. Can swim in freezing water and is unaffected by it (still have a normal air meter). Damage done by Ice-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by a Steel-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will perform an ice cyclone. Shield disappears if fire or lava touches it.
Dragon Shield: Effects of all other shields applied. Damage done by Grass-type, Fire-type, Water-type, and Electric-type attacks is prevented and won't cause shield to disappear. If hit by an Ice-type attack, damage is doubled and shield will disappear. By pressing X when in the air, will perform a shockwave pound. Supposed to be extremely rare.
