I think both Cream and Vanilla are considered civilians now so I dunno if they're able to adventure.
The Protomen enhanced my life.Team Rose in heroes was a team built out of circumstance. Big and Cream both had a friend who was kidnapped by Sonic, so they teamed up to do something about it.
This is also true for Team Dark.
I'm fine with replacing any of the members if they don't fit whatever story's being told. Amy was on Silver's team for some reason in 06.
So we would have had a Three Faces of Eve dynamic with Rouge on Team Rose.
Edit: There also would have been the irony of the flying character being the member who doesn't fly.

One Strip! One Strip!The version you played probably showed Sonic the hedgehog holding a Chao and a Frog.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I'd be down for Stick as part of Team Amy. Team Amy's rotating roster is almost its defining trait at this point, but she would make a great part of the cast and Team Amy's probably the best place to formally put her. It's less plot intensive, but still gives her a connection to the main group, etc.
Sonic Team hasn't definitely made that jump yet - doing more than just namedropping references to characters from adaptations or giving them be one-off spinoff appearances, and actually physically putting them into the main games - but I hope they do soon.
The idea of a a Sonic Villains game kinda slaps, actually.
I find it funny people are bring the Babylon Rogues up for this. They're not really evil even if they are jerks. They'd basically end up as the token good team when compared to everyone else.
Similar to how Team Dark are the token evil team in Sonic Heroes, so they actually fit perfectly.

If I were SEGA, I'd be more than a little pissed that they'd have to pay for their former senior members' mistake in assuming Sonic 3's music wouldn't have hand-me-down tracks from unreleased albums.
Hard Times Ice Cap might be the better song, but personally I'd consider not including it just on principle in their shoes too.

The money wasn't worth it...

Whitehead posted an early draft of Mania.
It looks like the level with the heavies fighting eggman kinda became Egg Reverie, but the original concept sounds so cool.

: Remember that NES bootleg game Somari, and how there was a Sonic graphical clone for it? Someone decided to seriously rework it into a functional NES Sonic game.
You know, I've heard of several characters exclusive to the comic that people would like to see in the games, but I just found out about Thunderbolt the Chinchilla
, and I think she needs to be in the games yesterday. Can't believe I've never heard of her before.

Speaking of teams, someone suggested
having Sticks as a third member for Team Rose (instead of Big or Vector) to be the team's Knuckles equivalent and...I'm surprisingly cool with that idea.
Like, I'm shocked no one else thought of it before.
