Here's how: Shadow came LONG before Sonic did. How old is Shadow? 50 or so? And Sonic is...15? Yeah, the age difference is notable. Just because Shadow's an android doesn't mean he can't be original...right?

-deep sigh- He isn't a friggin android! HAS ANYONE PLAYED SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG!?! >.< It was clearly stated he is a living organism with 'alien' blood, aka, Black Arms. So he's real, not a robot.

Well, whatever. Its just frickin' confusing. Is he an android or a Black Arm? Is either one stated in Sonic '06? And plus I haven't played StH in a while. But thanks, I totally forgot about that. So, since he isn't an android, then he IS THE ORIGINAL.

As I just said in the above post. He is NOT an android, so why do still insist on asking if he is so? Apparently he is the original, but even if he is, he won't be SEGA's mascot, which is probably a good thing. Cause most mascots suck...

I dont even know where people got the idea that there was some other Shadow, to be honest. Convoluted fans, I'm sure. Oh thats right, there were TWO tubes that were jettisoned. Forget the fact one was lost, it also didnt have anything in it... not even hinted that there was something in there.
But I see what he meant.... even if Shadow was an android, alien, or a cheerleader, he'd still be the same Shadow that had escaped the mayhem on space colony ark. Basically.
Technically Shadow isnt much of an alien though. Sure he has Doom's DNA, but he was made into a hedgehog. How on earth that works, I dont know. Just be thankful he's as good looking as he is, instead of some arse-faced alien freakazoid.

Well the human mind does have a habit of creating conspiracy theories. Although that did get me thinking, what if Shadow's loaded up with robotic implants that provide extra ass kicking power? It would explain how he can look so much like the blue boy yet kick so much more ass.

Nah... I honestly think Shadow is ten times cooler than Sonic because he just IS ten times cooler than Sonic.... naturally. Sure he was a test tube baby, that doesnt mean he has to be a robot to kick blue boy's keester.
Besides, I think that fluffly chest hair gives him a +5 in awesomeness attribute.

ok, everbody's gonna hate me 4 this but i think sonic is the original... duz any body remember the stage of sonic and knuckles were sonic has 2 defeet knux? in the bak round u can see a giant pic of super sonic fiteing eggman(i tink he was robotnik bak then...) and u kno how gerald made the arificial chaos? how about master emerald shrine in SA2B? i think gerald was trying to "reacreat" the past. this might explain why shadow looks like sonic! and both super sonic and normal shadow hav curved spikes. and maybe dr eggman isnt even real. maybe a his memories of his parents are fake!(if he has any...)

Dude, you contradicted (i think) yourself. Plus, the statement makes no sense. And, Shadow came long before Sonic. (game-wise, anyways). The quills thing was just a coincidence.

No, what she says makes sense.
Look at it like this. Gerald studied the ancient Echidna civilization, right? That's how he knew about the emeralds, and knew about Chaos (since he was trying to create artificial Chaos, after-all).
He might have seen a prophesied depiction of Super Sonic , like the one back in the mosaic back in Hidden Palace Zone. In fact, it would make sense that he saw one of Sonic fighting perfect Chaos.
That way, he creates the Biolizard as an attempt at duplicating chaos, and Shadow as a way of duplicating Super Sonic. At least, in outward appearance.
This is perfectly logical, and doesn't immune anyones story since Shadow STILL comes fifty years before Sonic. It's just just kinda cool that Shadow is retroactively based off of Super Sonic.

Well thank GOD that they didn't have anything about underage homosexuality on those wall drawings. I just cringe at the thought of Shadow chasing around little foxboys.

Attempting to recreate chaos would explain why the Biolizard sounds like him, except the Biolizard's got that nerdy life support system. XP
I had wondered why Shadow's spikes look like Super Sonic's. Now it makes more sense.

That and Shadow was created in a small tube. I imagine that's gotta give you quite a bit of bead head.  |
