Sonic General Discussion Zone Act 1: New Frontiers

Really annoying how Sonic just keeps getting downplayed to like 13-14x universal and quadrillions c at max with people I talk to, just so other verses can be argued to stomp all over them,
Well, because either people wanna retain the stigma of Sonic being a punching bag or they don't like him at a high level of power. Whether it's copium about the TailsTube multiverse episode, or 50 Shades of copium about the "infinite worlds" statement from CrossWorlds. Still, everybody is entitled to their takes... bad as some may be.

Though I will admit, those who do so out of spite are a special kind of grating on the ears lol
 
“Tails was definitely just talking out his ass” even though there’s multiple reasons to buy that he isn’t, and people will accept theories from other characters like Gerald saying Shadow would explode as uninhibited Doomer.

“Solaris could be killed by destroying him in 3 specific points in time because there are 3 characters who each mention an era of history” even though he exists across all of time and it’s the equivalent of giving him a papercut.
 
What's confusing about it to you? I'm curious. Just the entirety of it in general, or this Ruby plot?
The ruby plot and how confusing the scaling gets considering the amount of canon material we have that seems to clash with each other in some shape or form. Or I might just be too dumb to understand it, who knows.

not to offend but you are confused.

I agree, it’s annoying how stuff like Infinite fighting super Shadow needs to be asterisked as “only the weakest variant of Super Shadow” every time.

But I guess better than circular scaling.

Agreed no need to appease or argue with those with similar logic to flat earth believers, anti-vaxxers and so on. No point debating against those that be first to tuck tail and run when confronted with Sonic fans/success IRL (seen it so many times) while they spread toxicity online or in their echo chamber "community".

Facts:

*Sonic has a successful movie franchise with a 4th movie (and likely a 2nd TV series) on the way.

*Shadow Generations was both a critical and financial success which granted much needed buffs to Shadow.

*Sonic is having an ongoing crossover with DC, the fact Sonic characters can keep up with any version of the JL and Darkseid, let alone a Chaos Emerald being used as a battery for an engine of universal destruction is undeniable feats of power.

*Sonic literally had to face Death, a nightmare version of Eggman and a dragon that spams black holes in his most recent games (that's not including Roblox, Gens remake and supplementary material).

*Sonic 4 is confirmed to deal with time travel, Sonic Prime was a multiverse story, Sonic × DC is a multiverse story and Crossworlds is going to be about... yup you guess it, the multiverse!!!

At this point, there's only sheer stubborn envy and argument from belief the Sonic downplayers have left. If we lived in a world where you must provide a sound or logical argument before you can have an opinion, the Sonic "stigma" wouldn't even exist but I digress Sonic Scholars.
 
“Tails was definitely just talking out his ass”
Ah yes, the character with more intellect than most of our greatest geniuses in history combined is an unreliable source of information.
and people will accept theories from other characters like Gerald saying Shadow would explode as uninhibited Doomer.
Isn't that so coincidental? Hmmm...
“Solaris could be killed by destroying him in 3 specific points in time because there are 3 characters who each mention an era of history” even though he exists across all of time and it’s the equivalent of giving him a papercut.
Thank you JP 06, you could not have debunked this any harder
 
Really annoying how Sonic just keeps getting downplayed to like 13-14x universal and quadrillions c at max with people I talk to, just so other verses can be argued to stomp all over them, like people arguing Ryuko stomps Shadow now because the arena fighter made her trillions of x universal (not that I disagree with that buff in particular)
Those "people" are just Death Battle fans, aka nerds who refuse to accept the truth.

There's no circular scaling. Infinite just got stronger. Wild how some people will refuse the easiest explanations because they personally just can't believe it.

I understand the sentiment, and I wouldn't say it's cuz you're dumb. I do think there are things that conflict when taken at face value, though I think less than some people say.

For example, people offer this false dichotomy of the Ruby being either illusions or reality warping when it can easily be both and is in fact likely best explained that way.

Yep absolutely right, like 6-D Sonic is a bit too much for me rn but he’s definitely at least high Multiversal bare minimum.

Problem is it’s just inconsistent with every other Ruby clone, which is at most equal to the original, and Infinite getting a boost from the true Ruby isn’t stated in the story.

It doesn’t need to be stated if it can logically be inferred.

Considering that even a clone of Perfect Chaos couldn’t measure up to Super Sonic at all or the original, despite coming from the strongest phantom Ruby in feats to date, I think it does need to be stated.

Because Perfect Chaos didn't get stronger from Adventure (Because it's a being from Chaos rage back then)? It's a completely different scenario.
 
I mean base Sonic already scales to low end super forms, saying this Infinite clone scales there isn’t really changing much.
 
I am curious why Infinite would grow in power but not Chaos. I think the cast has a consistent power anyways, but I'm curious about that still.

Chaos did get stronger, that's why Chaos 0 has a modern key. Perfect Chaos is the one who didn't because that form is attached to the past, not current Chaos.

In Gens, they went from only matching Modern Sonic in power, to being capable of insta-killing him in Otherworld Comedy, though. That story is post-Forces too.

IMO base Sonic is actually not as strong as Perfect Chaos, his weak spot is just base Sonic tier.

They weren't capable of insta-killing him, this exact argument was addressed in the thread trying to upgrade him to 1-C.
 
If I remember correctly, I think the argument was that the Chaos in Otherworld Comedy wasn't Adventure Chaos? But with that logic, that would apply to the idea of this Infinite too then, with there being a Speed Simulator period ver. of the character, meaning the scaling wouldn't check out.

No, it was a “weaker” adventure Perfect Chaos.
 
It was able to keep up with Super Sonic, from what I recall. The story states too that Super Sonic only barely avoids Perfect Chaos' attack. So if the idea is that the Otherworld Comedy ver. is weaker than the original, that would mean Adventure Chaos does still scale to the current Sonic. (Not really my point, I guess, but yeah. I'm just struggling to see the difference of "this Perfect Chaos clone doesn't scale/doesn't represent the real" VS "this Infinite clone scales and represents the real", in Speed Sim.)

No, the argument was that Perfect Chaos doesn't scale to Super Sonic nor that he was capable of one-shotting Sonic. I recommend re-reading that thread.
 
His weak point isn't even a weak point, it's just his brain, which he can surprisingly manipulate at will (like turning into water, including his brain).
Perfect chaos’s brain just exploded into pieces when super sonic hit it, but it could tank a few hits from base Sonic, and outside of that base Sonic never directly overpowers PC (in the same vein he never directly overpowered Void but still fought against it)
By that logic, every boss is x amount of power but weakspot is only x power cuz they have to hit the weakspot. I don't buy this.
honestly it probably resolves the issue with Dark Gaia as well, as is you can make a downscaling chain with Sonic being able to destroy semi-perfect DG’s eyes, but if the eyes were just infinitely weaker than everything else cuz it’s a video game it would make sense.

are we forgetting that Super Sonic plan was to heal the anger and negative emotions on Perfect Chaos?and also, that again does not prove that the weak point is infinitely weaker than the rest of themselves (which makes no sense anyway)

the problem with this is that it is never said that their eyes is infinitely more weak than their entire bodies, this is not like the saiyans with their tails, it is just never stated that this weakspots are infinitely weaker than the rest of them

Still doesn't make much sense and just seems like a more difficult route than just saying "He scales" and calling it a day. Seems a bit overanalytical.

It would make sense though, considering that Perfect Chaos’ power was so great Super Sonic required “the full power of the Chaos Emeralds”
