** A common guess on Twitter is either an armadillo lizard or pangolin; the former of which is a lizard that bites its tail to curl into a ball-like shape and the latter is a mammal that looks like a lizard and is also able to somewhat curl up into a ball.

Since her head is covered by a metal.. something, we can't really figure out the identity of Trip's species. Why not list some guesses?
* A red panda. A couple people online say that her tail somewhat looks like a red panda.
* Some sort of lizard. If not spiky fur, it might be ''actual'' spikes, which is an attribute of some lizard, although I can't think of one in particular.

[[WMG: The antagonist is not Eggman, but [[Videogame/SonicFrontiers Sage]] instead.]]
While Eggman is seemingly confirmed, he's not been seen ''in person''. Possibly the antagonist is Sage, who is trying to prove to her father that she is more than capable of living up to her family legacy.
* Unlikely, as Sage does not exist in the Classic Sonic timeline and, while is possible that Classic Eggman could make a Classic timeline equivalent of Sage in this game, Sega does not seem to have any interest in making Classic versions of Modern characters.
* Completely jossed, Eggman appears in the opening animation alongside Fang. Also, it would make absolutely no sense for Sage to appear due to this being a Classic Sonic game and thus a game set in the past.

[[WMG: This game will feature the return of Hyper Form.]]
The Chaos Emeralds have been getting an increasing amount of focus recently, with ''VideoGame/SonicFrontiers'' delving into their history and this game showing off new abilities of their's. With this resurgence in relevance, now would probably be the best time to put the Super Emeralds, back in the limelight as well.
Iizuka and Sonic Team as a whole have come to be more receptive towards fan feedback and criticism with the last couple games and the return of Hyper Sonic is something fans have been clamoring for decades. Dummied out files in ''VideoGame/SonicMania'' even suggest they were going to return in that game, so we know that the idea has at least been flirted with in the past.
The main issue with this theory is Sonic Team's reluctance to reintroduce Hyper Form since, according to Christian Whitehead, they reportedly don't want to deal with a [[NextTierPowerUp multi-tier power system]]. And as it stands, Hyper Form is just Super with extra bells and whistles. But this just serves as the perfect excuse to give the forms their own variation of DivergentCharacterEvolution, like say Super Form is the standard "buff Sonic and pals' base abilities" deal while Hyper is more focused on being able to cycle through stronger versions the Emerald Powers, just to give an example.

Additionally, the rival bit would lead to a nice MegaMan & Bass or Sonic Adventure 2 situation.

How would I prove this despite no face being visible? Simple, their legs, they're covered. Going by the current rules for characters in the Sonic series, if I recall correctly, males can only ever wear upper body clothing if they ever do cover up and never anything like pants, while females have to have some form of lower body clothes.

But unlike Eggman, Fang and the yet unseen new character, he won't be a major character, a BigBadWannabe at best. Perhaps he'll come to North Star Islands to search for a way to rebuild his empire after Tails thrashed it. And of course there'll be a rematch between the two.
