And two pods? Shadow was sent out alone, we saw no evidence of a second pod in either flashback. Shadow also has enough evidence he’s who he thinks he is- he has the right powerset, the GUN soldier says that they did, indeed, seal away an Ultimate Prototype, Gerald mentions Shadow enough in his monologues, and… honestly there’s really no evidence that he isn’t Shadow, other than the two pods. In neither of these do we see any evidence that anyone other than Shadow and Maria are in the room or even nearby. In the second flashback, she’s already on the floor, and the lever pad we see would cause her to be facing away from Shadow. In the sepia flashback, she’s not facing him, and pulling a lever attached to a wall. She’s around an elevated platform not attached to a wall, and either facing the pod she’s sending away or in a completely different room.īut, both of Shadow’s alternate memories of Maria sending him away– the first one more stylized, the second one we can assume more real– neither looks like this.

Though we don’t see the full room, we get the sense that it’s small from the other shots that I don’t have the time to screenshot. Second- Maria is in a different position around the lever in both flashbacks. How do we know this? Shadow’s flashback of being sent away and the man who worked for GUN are completely different- first of all, the GUN soldier doesn’t remember her saying anything to Shadow, or Shadow even being there- it seems that she died to send away something or someone else. Shadow is who he thinks he is- because his capsule was sent out alone. It must have somehow not been logged. So two capsules were ejected and neither was found in the fifty years it’s been since the accident– except I think Rouge is wrong about one thing. Do you understand? I wonder who you really are. They couldn’t lock up in prison what they couldn’t find. Rouge: Two capsules were ejected when the ARK was shut down. I’m the Ultimate Lifeform they created afterwards. The body they created is still held there. Rouge: This is the progress report for Project Shadow, a plan to create the ultimate life form. [ID: screenshots from Sonic X of Rouge and Shadow talking, with the following dialogue: Let’s look at Rouge’s claim that Shadow isn’t who he thinks he is. Rouge makes the claim that neither of these escape pods was Shadow… so in X Canon, is Shadow even who he thinks he is? And just as importantly… who are the other prototypes?

When Rouge hacks into the base, she informs Shadow of one thing- he wasn’t the only prototype from Project Shadow that escaped the ARK massacre. Unless you’re Sonic the Hedgehog, of course, in which you only go back in time 24 hours instead of going back much farther and getting to the root of the problem at its source.In Sonic X’s adaptation of Sonic Adventure 2, they make an interesting claim about the Ultimate Lifeform prototypes on the ARK. Regardless, it’s all stupid! Having time travel powers like that essentially makes you psychic because you can just travel to any point in time and correct every mistake you’ve ever made, like some kind of ridiculous Tool Assisted Speedrun. Shadow might I think he was the one who explained to Silver that they had created a time portal, as memory serves. He technically doesn’t have that knowledge anymore, I guess. So yes, technically, he could - though it’s important to note that the event that made him learn about creating time portals was erased from history. The weirdest part to me is that initially its implied you need two people and two Chaos Emeralds to pull it off, but as the game rounds to a close, I’m pretty sure Sonic is just opening time portals all by himself as he pleases. I suppose we don’t see it from their perspective, so maybe they stop time and physically move these objects before time resumes, but it doesn’t seem likely.Īnd then in Sonic 06, they straight up enable time travel. Sonic and Shadow also use Chaos Control to teleport the space colony somewhere safe. I think there are also parts of Shadow the Hedgehog where stopping time comes in to play.īut then you go back to Sonic Adventure 2, and Sonic uses Chaos Control with the fake emerald to teleport back to the space station. This also carries over in to Sonic Heroes, where Team Dark’s “Team Blast” utilizes Chaos Control to stop time. In SA2’s multiplayer, one of Shadow’s abilities is to, again, stop time. “Wow! He’s fast! Wait, it’s not his speed… he’s using a Chaos Emerald to warp!” Like, whenever Shadow seems to use Chaos Control, all it does is either slow or stop time, right? The very first time Sonic encounters him… Chaos Control definitely seems to be completely ridiculous and an easy “it does whatever we want it to, whenever we want it to” creation.
