I'm late for the "What levels would you choose in a Generations type game," but I just want to say Kingdom Valley just SHOULD have been the 06 stage.

So swap out Seaside Hill for Casino Park, Frog Forest, Hang Castle, or Egg Fleet. (So we don't double up on water levels, which Classic Kingdom Valley would probably be).

I don't see how Metal Sonic isn't the evil Sonic. Sure he's a robot designed for it but when they let him have a personality he has the smugness, love of racing and desire to prove himself befitting an Evil Counterpart. He even has the common sub-trope of "the evil counterpart has an obsession with their good self"

If you're referring to what I said, Metal Sonic is already in Rivals 2...he's partnered with Shadow while Eggman speaks through him.

The evil Sonic is just an illusion in the Haunted Mansion level, it's not a villain.

Much earlier in the month, Sonic's Japanese Twitter held a poll on what the next monthly isekai pairing would be and it was Tikal and either Chaos or Pachamac. Needless to say, Chaos won by a landslide.

Today, we see the result: Tikal and Chaos running a restaurant for Chao! And it's as cute as you think it is! grin

Chaos looks simultaneously adorable and hilarious.

I didn't know these monthly images were a thing. Do you have links to the previous ones?

Do you have links to the previous ones?

Yeah!

Keep in mind, these stories are in Japanese, so you'll either need Google Translate or wait for someone to properly translate it.

I didn't even notice there were stories if you scroll down! The images themselves were fun!

Also, it's nice to see Infinite be included in something.

I still feel for Liam O'Brian doing his hardest to make Infinite's breakdown tragic but there's just no saving that scene.

Like if only they played up how pathetic Infinite actually is and instead of trying to make him unironically cool.

Infinite is an amazing character on accident.

Also why is Shadow Vergil and...why is Infinite Admiral Nelson?

Yeah but well I can get Shadow dressing as Legendary Dark Knight Vergil, what I don't get is Infintie deciding to be...Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson and Vice-Admiral in the British Navy. Just without the hat. At least that's how I see it.

I'm pretty sure such outfits are standard for Japanese pop idols. At least, I've seen similar outfits used in parodies and send-ups, like the Japanese pro wrestler Taichi's "Holy Emperor" gimmick.

I'm tellin' you guys, they should straight up make Infinite into an evil Chuunibyou. I'm not even kidding, it would be perfect characterization for him.

Has the Sonic series not really added many prominent characters to the main cast in recent years? I guess it has been awhile.

I imagine this wouldn't be worth noting if the games hadn't avoided adding one-shot characters for a long time.

Single use Side characters make identity.

[up][up] The last recurring character to be added was....Zavok.

Time remains to see where Sage falls.

Sage has had a much better reception than Zavok, so I think she'll fair pretty well if she comes back.

[up]Hmm, let's see:

Tails - 1992

Amy - 1993

Knuckles - 1994

Vector, Espio, Charmy - 1995

Shadow - 2001

Rouge - 2001

Cream - 2002

Blaze - 2005

Silver - 2006

Sticks - 2014

So I guess it would be 2014.

Sticks hasn't shown up in the main games as of yet, so I wouldn't really count her....Frontiers notwithstanding.
