* OffModel:
** When Sonic is about to enter the caves, his arms are blue instead of tan. This error also happens in the shot when Sonic said "Hmm. Maybe you should consider a career in politics" and when he's hanging for dear life.
** In the shot where Spelunk said "I oughta! I oughta!" when Sonic and Tails are running up the hill to the surface, Sonic is wearing his miner disguise when he's suppose to keep wearing his crossing guard disguise.
** In the shot where Robotnik explains to Scratch and Grounder that "they're just going to have to tear the whole territory to pieces", Robotnik's bottom half of his bodysuit is red instead of black.

* CluelessAesop The first episode's "Sonic Says" segment showed Sonic and Tails surrounded by Badniks. Tails suggests they call 911 and Sonic tells him not to do that unless it's a real emergency. Although Sonic is very capable of trashing an army of Badniks, children could very easily get the wrong impression and think that Good Old Fisticuffs is the right approach when surrounded by bigger, stronger, and possibly armed attackers.
** Possibly, the writers themselves realized that this was a stupid lesson to teach kids, so in a later Sonic Says, Tails is being chased by Badniks, and calls for help by a nearby police officer. He arrests the Badniks, and Sonic congratulates Tails for doing the right thing.

* AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle: In the "Sonic Says" segment, Tails won't share his hot dogs with Spelunk and Spelunk won't share his chili with Tails. Sonic explains the benefits of sharing and they make Chili Dogs.
-->'''Sonic:''' Hey! If we share, why we can turn those ordinary hot dogs into three mouth-watering, tastebud-tantilizing chili dogs! ''([[BreakingTheFourthWall Sonic turns to the kids]])'' See, guys? If you share, everyone's happy!

The second episode of ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog''.

Sonic and Tails head into a network of abandoned mine shafts to escape from Scratch and Grounder, but they are held captive there by a miserly mole named Spelunk.

----
!! This episode provides examples of:
* AdaptationInducedPlothole: The events of this episode take place in [[LethalLavaLand Marble Zone]] from ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Sonic 1]]''. However, Marble Zone is depicted as a mine here, rather than marble ruins, making its name seem completely nonsensical.
* AllClothUnravels: Sonic pulls a loose thread on Spelunk's clothes made of Diamondius threads to create a rope to stop the swinging spike balls in one of the caves, causing the suit to come unraveled and leave Spelunk in his full-body underwear. After Tails and Spelunk get through the cave, Sonic sews Spelunk's clothes back together.
* AlliterativeTitle: '''S'''ubterranean '''S'''onic.
* AttackAttackRetreatRetreat: This exchange when Grounder attempts to save Robotnik from falling down a bottomless pit:
-->'''Scratch:''' Catch him, catch him!\\
(''Grounder produces a net and catches Robotnik in it.'')\\
'''Grounder:''' I caught him! I caught him!\\
(''Robotnik rips through the net and continues falling down the pit.'')\\
'''Grounder:''' Oooh, I didn't catch him.\\
'''Robotnik:''' Fools!
* CensorshipBySpelling: Sonic disguises himself as an accountant to trick Scratch and Grounder, which leads to this exchange:
-->'''Sonic:''' I see you haven't filed or declared, you haven't deducted your Y-O-Us, your A-R-Es, or your S-O-Stroke-S-T-U-P-I-Ds.\\
'''Grounder:''' Oh, is that bad?
* HeelFaceTurn: Spelunk goes from being a miserly, selfish mole who was very protective of his treasure to someone who wants to travel the world and help people the way Sonic and Tails helped him, and being more than willing to use his treasure to pay for any expenses he might need.
* LosingYourHead: Grounder's head detaches from his body when he and Scratch follow Sonic and Tails down the geyser hole.
* ManlyTears: Spelunk cries these after Sonic saves him from being crushed.
* MeaningfulName: Spelunk's name means to explore natural caves, which is what geologists do to study natural formations of the Earth.
* MinecartMadness: When Sonic and Tails attempt to escape from the cave by running up the mountain, Spelunk rides a mine cart down it to chase them away.
* MoleMiner: Spelunk is one of these.
* OffModel:
** When Sonic is about to enter the caves, his arms are blue instead of tan. This error also happens in the shot when Sonic said "Hmm. Maybe you should consider a career in politics" and when he's hanging for dear life.
** In the shot where Spelunk said "I oughta! I oughta!" when Sonic and Tails are running up the hill to the surface, Sonic is wearing his miner disguise when he's suppose to keep wearing his crossing guard disguise.
** In the shot where Robotnik explains to Scratch and Grounder that "they're just going to have to tear the whole territory to pieces", Robotnik's bottom half of his bodysuit is red instead of black.
* TalkingWithSigns: Scratch holds up a sign that says, '''HELP!''' when he and Grounder see a cannonball heading for them.
* TrapDoor: The cage that Spelunk traps Sonic and Tails in has one that leads to a bottomless pit.
* WaterGeyserVolley: This episode ends with Robotnik, Scratch, and Grounder being launched into the air by the geysers.
* WingdingEyes: Grounder's eyes turn into dollar signs when Spelunk's gold and jewels rain down from the sky after he, Robotnik, and Scratch use dynamite to blast open a crater they dug.
